Only problem was the spongy mattress in downstairs bedroom and the bed was on casters and moved in the night!

We had a perfect stay at the cottage. It is located in a really beautiful part of the Peak District with lots of things to do in the vicinity. The cottage was lovely and had everything we needed. We would recommend to any one as we hope to return some other time.

We had a lovely stay at Ford Wetley Cottage. The cottage was very clean and well equipped. Louise and Adrian were great hosts. Thanks again to them for all their hospitality including the kind welcome pack. It's a great location for exploring the Peak District. We had good weather and did walks along Rudyard Lake and Dovedale, amongst others. During our stay my 88 year old mum came for a one night visit. The downstairs bedroom with ensuite was perfect for her. She made good use of the garden and driveway for her walks/exercise. Our 3 year old daughter loved playing with toys and puzzles from the big basket in the living room. Would highly recommend this cottage. We hope to back soon. Mark, Pilar, Shirely and Bella

Visited with family and toddler. Beautiful setting, great facilities and really welcoming hosts. We hired a hot tub for the weekend which was lovely. Highly recommend

Rented the cottage with my fiancé and our dog. The cottage was amazing. So good for anyone wanting a break in the countryside. The log fire and welcome basket were great. Louise was really helpful and on hand to answer any questions. Would recommend hiring the hot tub, such an easy process and just added to the stay further. Cottage was spotless, can’t wait to come back and stay again!

Cosy and nicely decorated and equipped cottage at the edge of a small village. Friendly owner. Had a great stay!

Lovely cottage in a picturesque setting was extremely well equipped and very comfortable. The hosts Louise and Adrian are very friendly and helpful but not intrusive. There is so much to do in the area with good walks and lovely villages to visit that the holiday was both exhausting and relaxing. A change of scene was much needed and will need to visit again as we didn’t get to see half of what the area has to offer. Beautiful starry night skies.

Good cottage for a family break in a very peaceful location

This cottage was better than the description. Really clean and sanitised by the owner with an anti viral long term spray that made us feel reassured during our stay. There was a big supply of sanitisers and cleaners in the kitchen and a bottle of hand sanitiser for our use. The facilities were lovely, pretty bedrooms, each with their own bathroom which made social distancing very easy. There were Molton Brown toiletries in the bathrooms for an added touch of luxury. The lounge was spacious with plenty of seating and large coffee table and there was a big table in the kitchen which would seat 7, but with extra folding chairs if required. We catered for ourselves all week and the kitchen utensils etc were sufficient for a big Sunday roast with crumble for pudding and a birthday celebration mid-week. A mixing bowl would have been useful, but I am sure that if we had asked the owner, she would have provided it immediately! Really friendly owners who live on site, but were not at all intrusive. We were able to hire a hot tub, which added to the enjoyment. The barbecue was provided, with more than enough charcoal. The log burner had logs for a couple of evenings, but more logs were available. Even the matches and newspapers were provided. We took our Newfoundland dog who was also made very welcome and was able to run freely in the enclosed garden. There are a lot of sheep in the fields nearby which meant keeping her on a lead, but we were able to find plenty of sheep free walks as well. Very quiet country lanes to walk around with very few cars. A wonderfully peaceful week full of walks, reading, board games and good food. Just what we wanted.

Lovely time. Very helpful hosts. Thank you

We well recommend this lovely house for a holiday stay. Nice and cosy, well equipped. Beautiful location/ surroundings, loads to do nearby. Kids loved the Peak wildlife zoo and monkey world but so many other great places to visit around too. Thanks!

Ford Wetley Cottage was the perfect spot for a family get together in the Peak District. Impeccably clean, rustic, and homey, we loved spending our mornings and evenings in the cottage or in the garden. Everything we could possibly need and more is there! Thank you Louise and Adrian for a wonderful stay!

Had the most amazing few days here, cottage is absolutely bliss. Like a dream when u are there out in the country in this little palace with all of the home comforts needed. Took my family with me, a group of 7 mixes from ages 1-15. It’s only a short drive from Alton towers and there are lots of beautiful walks to be tried, however weather wasn’t on our side. Louise and Adrian were absolutely fantastic hosts. Could not do enough for us, would Defo recommend for a family break and will definitely be returning! Thank you so much!

Perfect spot, peaceful holiday

Wonderful cosy cottage. Well equipped with everything you need an comfortable beds. Great place to relax and escape to, yet only 1/2hr to most parts of the Peak District, and less to some of the walks and trails. Had a wonderful time and would stay again.

We had an absolutely lovely weekend, we were made to feel very welcome, and the cottage was so nice we didn’t want to leave. Very comfortable and fully kitted our with everything you could possibly need, many thanks

We all enjoyed our stay at the cottage very much. The cottage is in a beautiful part of the Peak District and is ideally situated for Alton Towers and other attractions. Very peaceful and relaxing with a charming cottage of character. I highly recommend. P Ensby

A delightful cottage in a beautiful setting with a very attentive host

Amazing house with everything you need rented out by lovely couple. Loved the space, walks from the house, fire and the Jervis Arms.

We had a great weekend at the cottage. It was a perfect place to meet up with family and for walking. We were lucky to have snow and went on some lovely walks straight from the door. The cottage is full of character and is beautifully furnished with a welcoming feel. Louise and Adrian were very friendly and helpful but also respected our privacy. We have already recommended the cottage to friends and would definitely return in the future.

We were blessed with snow on the day we arrived, which set the scene for an idyllic four day stay over New Year. The cottage was home from home, with all amenities on hand, and tastefully dressed like something out of Good Homes magazine. It was beautifully presented with a seasonal, festive feel: a traditional Christmas tree with crooning music and a burning log fire on our arrival. We spent our holiday roaming the North Staffordshire countryside and it was always a pleasure to return to the cottage. Louise and Adrian were excellent hosts, and the dogs and ponies were an extra bonus for the children. Thank you for a lovely holiday!

Six adults and one infant, a surprise birthday celebration and Ford Wesley Cottage was ideal. We had plenty of room, a log burner to keep us warm and some beautiful and exceptionally quiet countryside to explore. Louise and Adrian are excellent and helpful hosts and we all enjoyed our stay.

Great stay, lovely cottage, friendly owners. Very well stocked kitchen. Lots to do in the locality (driving distance for most), cafes, bars, restaurants, with extensive info in the cottage (menus, phone numbers etc.). We had no mobile signal in the cottage but the wifi was ideal.
