The Dell was beautiful, immaculate and very well planned cottage which had everything. A lot of effort clearly shows. The owners were friendly and helpful, We felt they truly want you to have a great stay. The welcome pack was the best we have seen. Fresh flowers and treats This on top of walking in to a fabulous house. Just perfect. Well done all. The area was beautiful. We had many a meal and breakfast in the pub. The Miners Standard. The locals were lovely and the food a delight. We would highly recommend a stay. The grounds of the cottage were a delight. Autumn leaves,squirrels,birds and sheep as neighbours. It was just beautiful and tranquil . Thank you host's. We have already passed on to friends. Would love to return some day.

The house is absolutely spotless and has everything you need for your stay. A welcome pack also awaits you when you arrive. Itâs in an ideal setting for exploring the Peak District or just staying local to relax and enjoy the property. A pub, is a short walk behind The Dell that does food and now has a cafe where you can enjoy a good breakfast too. The owners are very approachable and welcoming. Will definitely be back again!
