Great Staycation!
We decided to holiday in England and had a great experience at this well equipped cottage situated in a delightful village. The owner, Lesley was on hand and very helpful. We could not ask for more!

Beech cottage is a lovely property in a perfect location for good interesting walks. With 2 pub restaurants, a speciality cheese shop and ice cream parlour a few minutes walk away, what more could you want. I would recommend this property.

Beech Cottage Review
Short break during Autumn holiday.
Charming cottage in beautiful rural location. Perfect for walking and local attractions. Would definitely recommend and visit again. Thanks to Lesley for checking in on us to make sure everything was ok

Ideal location
Birch Cottage is in a very good location for exploring and walking in the Peak District. We enjoyed our stay very much. The cottage was very clean and comfortable, though Covid restrictions meant it was not as well equipped as normal.

Lovely cottage in picturesque surroundings
My partner, baby and I had a lovely and very relaxing time in Fred and Lesley's cottage. The wood burner was lit and there was tea and nice biscuits, on our arrival, which was a lovely, welcoming touch. The cottage was very clean and well equipped and catered perfectly for our baby, with high chair and stair gates. The village of Hartington is idyllic and surrounded by beautiful Derbyshire countryside. We went on walks most days, including to nearby village Biggin, to have a pub lunch. We would have no hesitation in recommending Fred and Lesley's cottage and have already done so to family members. Thanks very much for making us feel so welcome!

Loved it!
The cottage exceeded all our expectations. Lovely and cosy with a gorgeous modern bathroom. Loved all the personal touches such as the fully stocked tea and coffee cupboard and make up wipes in the bathroom. We had a 2 year old with us and the cottage was equipped with everything we could need including stair gates which alleviated a lot of stress! Will most definitely be staying again, thank you so much.

Excellent hosts, great location, cottage well-equipped and very homely
Welcomed by Lesley and all questions answered about the local area, including some great recommendations, which made our holiday.
Cottage was just perfect, very cosy, clean and what we needed for a relaxing break away.
Lesley also put in all the extras to accommodate our 18 month old, which made our stay easy.
Hartington is just beautiful and the cottage is in a superb location, with the local pub, shops and hundreds of country walks literally on the doorstep.
We also made use of the BBQ and garden furniture, which was also a bonus to have when the sun was shining!
Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing!
We spent a week in Beech cottage with 4 adults and 3 children under 4. Hartington is the perfect base with two really good pubs, two lovely cafes and two shops all just moments from the cottage.
The cottage itself beat all expectations. Big enough for us all but cosy. It was always warm and every need was met. The attention to detail by the owners was unexpected. They obviously care deeply about their guests and their business. We stayed during "the Beast from the East" snow storms and it was minus 13. We were snowed in and the owners sent us weather updates and allowed us to stay longer than we had paid for until it was safe to travel. We spent more time than we had imagined we would in Beech cottage and it wasn't necessarily a bad thing. Whatever the weather, I can't recommend it enough. We will be back.

Lesley and Fred are the most welcoming of hosts, on hand if you need any help but not in any way obtrusive. Their cottage met all our expectations and then some. Beech Cottage has so much charm and was so clean and warm, with it's central heating and support log fire, very comfortable beds and such an extremely well equipped kitchen that the chef in our party was delighted with all of the range and quality of the available cookware.
Lesley used her insider connections to personally arranged a table for us at the 'The Devonshire' for dinner on our fist night, which was fully booked despite being a Sunday evening, we would never have got a table it really was all reserved. Jan and Dave could not have been more hospitable but it was the food that was truly remarkable and we both enjoyed the best lamb shank we have ever tasted which was served to us with winter veg in the most delicious flavorsome sauce. The wine list was good and we chose Dave's best Portuguese red to accompany our meal.
The village has every essential you might need to fulfill a holiday dream come true such as a cream tea in the local post office or getting all your daily food stuff in 'the village shop' such as veg n fruit & home made cakes and fresh bread and a deli counter, this bygone hamlet also boasts the best award winning cheese shop, its absolutely awesome, we brought loads home as gifts for friends and family.
You can wander around the antique shops or watch the ducks on the village pond after a day walking or driving around some of the best breathtaking country side views that England has to offer, mostly farm land with charming dry-stone walls which I found totally enchanting.
Ashbourne and Buxton are charming little towns close to the cottage and have lots to offer in terms of of really good quality shops along with charming little independent shops. Buxton is a spa town and has the most amazing arctitecture
I really want to come back here and bring all the family. Our cottage slept 7 and I think Birch cottage which is adjoining next door has a similar capacity we are 10-12 so it should work out well for us to bring all the grand children for a trip to Abraham's Heights and wear them out on the much loved walks around scenic Dovedale.
