Mrs Priestley
We loved this cottage - it quickly became our 'home' for the week. Lovely setting In Baslow, a super village shop and individual, very comfortable accommodation. Very uneven pathways so not good for anyone unsteady. Generally great!

Mr Orchard
The bedrooms were all comfortable, and cosy. Cottage very clean and to a high standard. Standout features of the cottage was its fully-equipped kitchen, which made it easy to prepare meals during out stay and the secluded mature garden.
