Beautiful and comfortable cottage
We loved our stay at the Milkhouse! The cottage is very charming and well put together. It is extremely comfortable and nestled in a beautiful area of the Peak District. The owners, who live next door, are very nice and helpful.
The charming walking path to Wirksworth was a favorite part of our trip. The cottage is also located within an hours drive from many interesting sites.
