Beautiful Place
"Beautiful place , beautiful surroundings, everything you need for a relaxing place to stay"
Location is Perfect
"We had a lovely stay here and highly recommend it. The cottage is peacefully tucked away at the top of a hill but easily walkable to the local village Eyam. We stayed in Clarice cottage which was very spacious. Location is perfect for getting around the Peak District over a few days."
Perfect Stay
We had a perfect stay at Emma’s cottage. Cottage itself was clean and cozy - but spacious. Beds were super comfy too. Great facilities, a well-equipped kitchen! Location was also great. 15 minute walk to Eyam that has a lovely cafe, pub and restaurant. "Good walking routes from the cottage or a short drive to the more well known places. Emma was very accommodating throughout. Thank you, Emma!"
