Highly Recommended A+++
Our stay was what we expected and more. The property was exactly as described and I highly recommend. The kitchen, living room, dining room, bedroom and bathroom were the perfect size for the two of us and very comfortable. Michele was a great host. Communication was exceptional and she gave us tips, advice and guidance that went above and beyond - thank you Michele! Again, if you are considering a stay I would highly recommend!

Long weekend break
Perfect place to kick up our feet for a long weekend break. Loved being able to go hiking in the Peak District and spent a day at Alton Towers. The village is beautiful and quiet, which gives that relaxing feel. Hope to return again in the future!

Why they chose this property

Holly Cottage was totally refurbished in 2012. Previously it had been semi-derelict and used as a garage and store room since 1967. We have tastefully and sympathetically brought it up to the very high standards expected by our guests. The tiled floor downstairs features underfloor heating, which makes the lounge cosy on the coldest of days. Our fully fitted kitchen provides everything that you need during your stay, including a full sized cooker, a dishwasher and a washing machine incorporating a tumble drier. We have hand made oak doors throughout the property, and solid oak floors upstairs. The bathroom features a free-standing, double ended bath tub for a long relaxing soak, along with an electric shower for alternative bathing.
