This cottage has the most amazingly beautiful views! The landlady lives next door and is lovely. There are hens and ducks roaming around which adds to the rural idyll. Milk, locally baked cake, tea and instant coffee were a welcome provision. The cottage is comfortable and well equipped but the single toilet would be a challenge if it was occupied to full capacity. There is a large lounge downstairs which feels rather empty - perhaps moving the corner sofa forward so it is closer to the stove and the television would make this feel more cosy. The shower is one of these ones which runs from the bath taps with a converter switch. It is temperamental. The two main areas for improvement are adding a second toilet downstairs and adding a separate shower which is not connected to the bath taps. Some cushions for the dining table chairs would also be welcome. There are lovely walks directly from the cottage which make this a fantastic location.

The cottage was really wonderful and had everything you could need( everything you would have at home) The beds were so comfortable with lovely bedding and towels.. We had a brilliant time exploring the area as a family of five we came with many things however really didn’t need most of it as so well equipt, plus the couple who own it (next door) were quick help when a query arose and so kind to send back the things I’d left in a draw! ( always one!) Honestly can’t recommend it highly enough.

We have just returned from a weeks stay at The Stables and was not disappointed! The cottage was well equipped, spacious, clean and exceeded our expectations. We really felt at home! Great location with walks and cycle paths on the doorstep. It was particularly nice to chill in the garden after a day of walking and admire the beautiful view! Thank you for a great stay and making us feel welcome. We would definitely recommend!

Fantastic property with amazing views.. Great to be able to do walks straight from the house. Comfortable, spacious, well equipped, warm and very clean. Friendly and helpful owners too.

Ms Campbell

We had a lovely time and the cottage was even better than expected/conveyed by pictures.. We especially liked the useful utility room for our coats and shoes, the responsive and powerful central heating throughout the rooms, the ducks and chickens waddling around the front garden, and the salad boxes outside the front door.

Mrs Powell

I loved the location of this property - great for walks from the door, and lots of places to visit by car within a few miles.. Also there are good train links from nearby. The property itself was lovely - very spacious and looked newly decorated. It really had everything we could of needed. The only thing I could have done with was a broom for the kitchen floor, for a quick sweep up at night rather than get out the hoover - which did not seem to work on the hard floor. But somehow I managed to live without this!! I would love to return for a further visit.

Beautiful cottage, modern, clean, superbly kitted out & everything you'd need provided.. Beautiful location in Edale valley, just 15 mins drive to Hope & Castleton where there's a small Spar shop which stocks anything you forget/ need. Lovely & helpful owners live on site with their very cute free range chickens & ducks. Cottage comes with a lovely garden, much bigger than photos suggest. HIGHLY recommend if you're after a rural, quiet location.

Mr Walker

Wonderful stay at The Stables in a quiet idyllic part of the Peak District.. Amanda and Craig were excellent hosts and ensured we had everything we required.The Stables boasts a terrific view of Lose Hill and the valley towards Edale and it was great to sit out in the garden in the evening. The property was spacious and easily accommodated five people and we appreciated the locked store room for our bikes. We had fun watching the resident ducks and chickens and enjoyed helping Amanda corral some rogue sheep which had invaded the garden.!

Mr Scott

Fabulous week in a beautiful setting.. The cottage exceeded our expectations in every way being immaculately clean, more spacious than it appeared in the photos and really well equipped (everything seemed new and good quality). Walks from the front door and unobtrusive hosts in the adjoining cottage. Would recommend and return!

Mrs Andrews

Being a frequent holiday-cottage user I feel well-qualified to judge properties and this has to be one of the best I have ever had.. It suited our needs perfectly, the spacious ground floor is great and the kitchen spectacular! The cooker is especially perfect in every way, enabling me on one of the days, for extra family guests, to cook for 8 with ease. Having a family-sized fridge/freezer gives security for a few days self-sufficiency and with the quality washing machine and full-size dishwasher it really is home from home. The owner had gone to a lot of trouble in having Christmas decorations indoors and outside which we so appreciated. The location is ideal for our love of walking without needing to drive far at all. The Stables will certainly be considered for future stays in the High Peak area.

We have just stayed in the stables for a week and it could not have been any better. The cottage has everything you could need. It is very spacious and clean. The views are amazing. The cottage is located in a lovely area and close to lots of the local attractions and places of interest. We will certainly be staying there again. The chickens are very entertaining. Thanks Amanda and Craig.

The scenery was amazing, lots of walks and cycle paths from your doorstep, there was so much to do and places to see we loved every minute..

Just finished a weeks stay here and can't praise this place enough. We are a group of blokes who go cycling one a year and have rented a few of this type of place over the years. This has definitely been the best so far. It is well equipped, clean, spacious and for us (needing easy access to cycle routes) ideally located. Nice quite location (apart from the sheep) has a secure lockup for our bikes and a nice view from the patio when relaxing with a beer after a days ride. The owners are very pleasant and helpful, and thoughtful too, we arrive to find milk in the fridge, plenty of tea and coffee and a lovely lemon drizzle cake waiting for us. Highly recommended, and I would certainly go back.

Mr Anstis, August 2017

This was probably the best cottage we have ever rented.. The accommodation was generously sized and the garden and distant views were memorable. The quality of the kitchen and utility room equipment was far higher than expected. The owner was friendly but discreet. Very highly recommended.

This cottage is in a peaceful and beautiful setting, and is well equipped and well thought out. The location makes exploring Edale and the surrounding area really easy. The photographs on the website don't do justice to the space and excellent standard of the property, especially the main bedroom. All the equipment provided was of a really high standard in comparison to other places we have stayed in. We would highly recommend this property.
