Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests found the cottage to be spotlessly clean, contributing to a comfortable and enjoyable stay. However, a few guests mentioned finding sweet wrappers and food crumbs, which slightly impacted the overall impression of cleanliness.
The cottage's location in the Peak District is highly praised for its peacefulness, scenic views, and proximity to local attractions. The village's friendly atmosphere and the ease of access to walking paths added to the positive experience, although some guests noted the limited mobile signal.
Guests were generally pleased with the comfort provided by the cottage, mentioning the cosy underfloor heating and comfortable beds. However, some guests found the beds a bit small and the mattresses too firm, which slightly affected the comfort score.
The cottage's facilities, including the kitchen and the enclosed garden, were appreciated by guests. Nonetheless, there were comments about the lack of Wi-Fi, insufficient hot water for baths, and a desire for more kitchen equipment, which suggests room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
Guests mentioned welcome packs with bread, milk, and other provisions, which were seen as thoughtful gestures. It should be noted that such gifts, while appreciated, are not guaranteed for every stay.

Might be a bit tight for 4 people. Ideally situated for seeing the beautiful area. Great for dog families and the use of the paddock very handy. The fridge really needs some attention as there is a bad smell in it, obviously known about as a few deodorisers in it. Otherwise all good thanks.

The cottage was well equipped throughout though the details of the Wi-Fi, logs, directions to the meadows etc need to be included within the welcome pack as I didnât see these at first. Also the beds could benefit from a memory foam topper as the spring mattress was fairly uncomfortable though I appreciate this my preference. Overall a great weekâs stay in a great cottage, location and the addition of a small garden was perfect for my dog.

We took the NOW TV stick which worked very well. The only negatives really was the lack of a shower screen over the bath and the kitchen sink could benefit from more light. I think the online information could do with updating. We didn't need to take oven gloves as requested, and weren't sure about washing up liquid and cloths. Chelmorton is a lovely village which we found very central to the surrounding towns. The pub was amazing.
