Liz and Phil are the most hardworking genuine couple , not intrusive but always available if we needed them.The accomodation was clean restful and comfortable throughout , and the views from the cottage were wonderful .Little touches like decorations for Xmas , lovely hamper of goodies and potted plants were very much appreciated . You are only a few miles from the pretty towns of Matlock , Matlock Bath and Bakewell , and there are many pubs and restaurants especially takeaways if you do not wish to cook. We loved our time there, and will return someday .We wish Liz and Phil and their family every success for the future . ##### JEFFREY ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon W. 10 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Great little property for two.
