Beautiful cottage in a stunning location. Nice that it's positioned off the main road, but access is down a steep path so not suitable for everyone. Cottage was well equipped and clean, a very comfortable base for our week in the Peak District.

Had a lovely stay at Knoll cottage, very comfortable, with all amenities, great view out front and ideal for traveling around the Peaks. Within walking distance of local pubs and local store which stocked most essentials. Access to cottage from road is by an inclined path, but once you have transferred your belongings in it's not a problem.

An absolutely lovely area down a short (quite steep) path. Its like you are in the trees due to the position on the hill side and is fab to eat breakfast out in the patio. Good facilities close to pubs and village shop, Worth experiencing.

The holiday cottage was in a good location and well equipped kitchen; plenty of space inside. But you should be mindful that entry is down a very steep slope so not good for anyone with mobility issues. The only negatives were that there was no BBQ as advertised, the shed for bikes was locked, the emergency contact had no contact details.

Nice short stay in this cosy cottage. The footpath down to the river runs directly in front of the house, and the river downstream and especially upstream is beautiful. We saw a dipper which was a bonus. You can't hear anything from the cottage other than the river and birds. The village is a good hub to explore the Peak District from, with 3 pubs Read morethat we found, and a nice coffee shop in the YHA, bakery and post office/shop. Very steep path down to the cottage which wasn't a problem for us but may be worth bearing in mind if there are any mobility issues. The wood burner was a bonus and warmed the dining room area up quickly. Hide

There is a step path to the property which was not a problem for us, bit would have been nice to know in advance as we would have packed differently. The property was clean, but there was a bit of a doggy smell in the dining room. We weren't expecting a dishwasher, but they do make a difference to a family holiday. We had a wonderful time and the pRead moreroperty is in a beautiful location and well looked after. Thanks Hide
