Great spot, peaceful and quiet, amenities are really good too.
Emma
We stayed here recently and enjoyed our time, but there are a few things to note. Getting to the cottage can be tricky, especially if you're in a 4x4 - we had to reverse in, which wasn't ideal. The garden isn't fully enclosed, which was a bit of a let-down since we were told it would be. The kitchen is well-stocked, but no starter pods or tablets were provided, not even a cloth. Some parts of the place need a bit of maintenance for safety reasons. Still, the gardens are lovely and worth a visit!
Emma
The cottage was lovelyand the garden perfect for the dogs. We'd definitely come back someday!

We loved the peaceful vibe here, with plenty of space around and no neighbours in sight. The garden was perfect for our dog's freedom and felt really secure. The place is nicely decorated and the kitchen had everything we needed. Bathrooms were modern with hot water galore. WiFi worked smoothly. It's ideally located for exploring nearby spotsand Leek's shops are handy. The owner was super responsive and easy to get hold of. Great stay overall!

We stayed at the cottage again and had such a lovely week! It's in a peaceful, pretty spot and even with the chilly weather, the place felt really warm and cosy.
