Well equipped and comfortable ##### Alison P. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tony S. 2 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### WHAT A FIND! Whatever I say will not be good enough. We absolutely loved everything about this place. The beds and pillows are so comfy and the linen was impeccable. Its location is sublime. If you like being in the middle of nowhere without a phone signal, superb scenery and walks? then this is the place. We did not want to leave and will definitely be back. Finished to a high standard and impeccably clean you will want for nothing, other than maybe some mirrors upstairs and champagne flutes to continually toast the surrounding countryside. ##### Tony S. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Lewis T. 18 Nov 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Secluded cottage next to the Dove Really lovely cottage, set in complete seclusion down a long winding road in Thorpe. Wonderfully presented and well placed for walks and days out etc in the south peaks and Staffordshire. There is a cluster fly problem which is a bit troublesome as we couldn’t open the kitchen window. I am not sure if this was seasonal. Only a small (but annoying) matter though in the grand scheme of things as the cottage is otherwise lovely. ##### Lewis T. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kieron H. 30 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic peaceful property in great surroundings We had a weekend break in May 2025.The property is immaculate both inside and out and very well maintained. Enclosed garden presented really well.The property is surrounded by large fields, providing a peaceful setting.Would definitely stay again.My only (very small negative) is the property doesn't allow dogs upstairs, which is fine - but there is no physical barrier (door or gate) to stop a dog wandering upstairs, especially at night time. ##### Kieron H. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon J. 13 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great accommodation in peaceful location A great place to stay in the middle of nowhere, yet just minutes away from the southern edge of the Peak District.Well equipped cottage in good condition with modern appliances etc.Lots of walks of different lengths right from the door. ##### Simon J. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison H. 24 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Half term break Fantastic property in a stunning location, finished to an exceptional standard. Nothing to fault and would happily return in the future. Thank you ##### Alison H. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alex S. 20 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Rural quiet idyll Really well appointed and secluded property with excellent decoration and lots of nice touches for a well stocked kitchen. It was beautifully quiet with a secure garden for our dog. There were also some nice walks out of the door too- we all really enjoyed it and hope to come again in the future. Alex ##### Alex S.
