Just back from a lovely week in this fantastic cottage. Location is perfect for peace & quiet but only a few minutes walk into Edale. Cottage was well equipped and warm. Having a freezer compartment in the fridge would be handy but the landlady was happy to store items in her freezer. Good walking country and cycling if you're into hills. We would go back.

Lovely cottage.. Exactly as you hoped it would be. Fantastic position for access to hiking trails.

Mr Young

October 2018

Fabulous location, so peaceful, extremely well equipped - unlike many places, the kitchen had everything you'd need to self-cater.. There were two drying rails - again something often missing in holiday lets. It's as if the owners had lived in this cottage first and worked out what was needed to make it perfect. Owner friendly. Very good pub serving excellent food (at a good price) about 10 - 15 min walk. We loved this so much we will be back next year ! The only thing that wasn't perfect were the pillows - these were strangely lumpy. Would recommend bringing your own (that's what we'll do next time). I created a YouTube video of Edale and surroundings: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVl8vZO43co

Excellent location to do lots of things and enjoy the holidays.. We enjoyed even when we were in the Christmas break even in the winter season which we did not expect. We were received very well by the owners and given all the instructions we needed. The owners were really helpful in suggesting locations to visit. The location was outstanding as the rear door of the cottage opened to the landscape and hills. We love to go back in the summer time to explore more.
