It suited us perfectly, the bedrooms were comfortable, en suite a bonus. Wonderfully comfortable beds, duvets and soft pillows covered in lovely Egyptian cotton. Blissful sleeps. Lovely kitchen, lounge and dining area and big family bathroom. Loved having the pool and games room. We managed tp time it when we had it to ourselves which was a bonus. We would definitely return and definitely recommend a stay there. Easy reach to all of the Derbyshire countryside if you want to explore or just a nice relaxing, chilled break.

The property was rustic but we liked that. It was very clean and comfortable. Could do with a few more pots and pans and a shelf in the oven but this didn't dampen our stay. The pool and games room were an amazing addition and we made good use of these facilities. It was in a beautiful location and had easy access to Bakewell and Peak walks. Our only issue was in initially finding it. Our Satnav took us to the campsite and we had to ask for directions. Stick to the main road folks.
