Beautiful cottage in a quaint area.Exceptionally well maintained & our host Jane prepared for our arrival with refreshments & a delicious cake. There are many dog walking paths which we unfortunately didn’t have time to do. The Waterloo pub offers a very good tasty menu and it’s a few minutes walk!We would definitely go back fuel permitting? Thank you Jane & Richard we hope to enjoy your splendid cottage once more

Lovely cottage

The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed. It was spotlessly clean and in a perfect location to explore the Peak District. Our host Jane had thought of everything including a welcome pack which included a lovely homemade cake, bottle of Prosecco, crisps, milk and biscuits. I would definitely love to stay here again.

The cottage was exceptionally clean, spacious and in a very quiet, peaceful location. Cottage was big enough for 2 adults, 2 teenagers and 2 dogs for the week. We all had a lovely time.

Lovely cosy cottage in picturesque village. Well equipped with welcome goodies for guests and pets from hostess Jane. Lovely enclosed gardens front and back, with two log burners no less, for colder months. Village is quiet and peaceful with one pub (literally 2 mins walk) serving food. Other amenities in nearby villages - great quiet retreat or base for exploring the Peaks in general. First visit, and would have no hesitation booking again.

We had a wonderful week staying at Rowan Tree Cottage with our two teenage daughters.This property is immaculately clean and Jane puts a lot of thought into her guests stay with the cottage being well stocked in basics and to top that off a wonderful welcome basket, fresh milk and a home baked cake The cottage is very well placed in a peaceful village but nothing is too far away.

Beautiful cottage in a great location

We had a fantastic few days at the cottage. Jane had really thought of everything even down to a birthday cake! The cottage was lovely and clean and the log burners were a perfect addition to the cooler evenings. We also made the most of the local pub, which was a 2 minute walk.

Just fantastic!!

We loved this property. The cottage, was clean, comfortable and i have nothing bad to say about it. It suited us perfectly. The cottage was easy to get to, close to great walks, a good pub and a fantastic restaurant. The beds were also very comfortable which is always a good indication of a quality.
