Comfort received mixed reviews, with some guests finding the space cosy and the bed comfortable, while others noted issues with seating and the lumpy mattress. The compact nature of the cottage was expected but did impact the comfort level for some.

There is insufficient information regarding any thoughtful gestures or gifts provided by the owners, as no reviews mention such details. Therefore, it is not possible to assess this category.

The property is exactly as noted in the listing - very small but well organised, not luxurious but comfortable enough, adequately equipped. It's a tiny, tucked away little base in a brilliant location for exploring the Dark Peak area. Communication from the owner was fantastic. I will absolutely rebook for my solo adventures or possibly with my son. For an adult couple I'd suggest it's best suited for short stays.

The local shops and pub were within 10 to 15 minutes walk, and were lovely.

Compact but extremely well appointed - some very clever design features. Excellent walking from doorstep
