Fabulous
Such a great stay! We loved the cottage from the moment we arrived - and the welcome was as warm and friendly. Lindsay is an expert at this and there was nothing that could have been improved upon. So many pantry items and treats! The cottage is beautifully equipped and accessorized - we love the sheep theme that carries through all rooms, with carefully selected and amusingly tasteful touches. A comprehensively equipped kitchen makes cooking and eating at home a pleasure. The outdoor space - patio and garden - are a delight too. We spent a lot of time just sitting and relaxing - and enjoying the views. Loved the gas stove in the living room too. The location is perfect - this immaculately groomed little hamlet which offers very easy access to all the major places of interest in the Peak District. We could not have chosen better! Thank you, Lindsay, for everything - especially the pleasure of meeting you. Paul & Martin - Vancouver Island, Canada.
