Cosy, comfortable, well positioned and well equipped. Ideal base for seeing the White Peak District. Good facilities to hand in nearby Wirksworth (walkable). Great, dog friendly walks from the door.

This is a lovely cottage in a fabulous location. Clean and simple but with nice touches like the doggie tray and welcome basket. I loved working at the kitchen table overlooking the view or having coffee on the front bench. Wirksworth is easy to walk to with quirky shops and pubs and there were good dog walks and brief drive day trips like Matlock Read moreDale or Cromford. Highly recommended, with friendly hosts with great tips. I would go back tomorrow. Hide

Cottage was absolutely beautiful, so fresh and clean- very well stocked kitchen and the views from the front door and upstairs window were fabulous, parking was a bit of a nightmare but we managed and the dog loved looking at the sheep on the field across the road. Would definitely recommend for a couple.
