Lovely bungalow in a really nice setting, stayed with my husbands, friends and their children as we were their for a wedding. The bungalow was lovely and well set up for all our needs. The children were really impressed with the selection of toys and games. The area was beautiful right next to the church, and Ilam park which looks beautiful! Only negative were the beds looked much comfier than they actually were, the springs in the double bed could be heard when moving (could do with being replaced). But in comparison to the hotel prices in the area, this lovely bungalow was well priced, and was lovely to be able to have the extra space for us to chill out and catch up. It would be nice to go back one day and explore the area, and if I do I would definitely book the bungalow again.

We had a lovely stay but it would have been so much better if all the spiders had been removed from the bungalow- they were everywhere! Lovely hosts & nice stay there.

Have stayed at this cottage in Ilam 4 times now. The cottage is always clean and tidy. The location is amazing and check in and out process is very simple. Only small thing I would say could be improved is the wifi. The property does have good Wi-Fi, but it doesn’t reach into the bedrooms. Can be a bit frustrating if you are travelling with children. Could just do with a WiFi extender in the hallway so the signal reaches into the bedrooms.

We stayed for two nights and agree with the other reviews. It is a large and spacious cottage which is well equipped and in a great location to explore all that the Peaks has to offer. It is also great value. As per the other reviews its decor is slightly dated and the double bed could be more comfortable. Oh yes salt and pepper and cooking oil would be a bonus too, but overall a definite 5 star. The only real negative which doesn’t detract from the cottage itself is that we felt on one occasion when returning from a day out that we were sharing the cottage as we found the local vicar and colleague in the garden who was also using the bench on the front porch. Unfortunately while I’m sure they meant well, it felt like our privacy had been invaded.
