"We’ve just had another fabulous stay at Heathylee, our 2nd this year!"
-
"A superb cottage that was ideal for our group for some walks around the local peaks area & visiting the likes of Buxton & Bakewell."
The cottage was super clean & comfy. Would have no hesitation in booking again.
-
"We had a lovely stay and the kitchen is well supplied with what you need to prepare meals in, and the pub the cheshire cheese is well placed for meals out."
The location of the house is ideal for going to explore different areas without travelling for too long
-
"We have enjoyed our stay at the property, the Land Lady was very helpful and recommend the cottage without hesitation."
-
"We agree with other reviews that HeathyLee is a very clean well equipped property in a peaceful location."
However, it should not be marketed as a 6 person accommodation as the dark 3rd bedroom to the side of the property is unsuitable for 2 adults with a very low beam over one of the beds. A 165cm (5' 5") adult found it hazardous and banged their head several times. The beam is lower than five feet off the ground over the bed. We feel it presents a Health&Safety; issue. The other twin bed in the room has no issues with a beam - therefore HeathyLee is better advertised as a 5 bed property. Another reviewer has commented on the "challenging" nature of the lane leading to the property and perhaps there should be an advisory that large cars, eg, SUV's, large hatchbacks might find it difficult parking, even off- road in front of the property. We liked the village and its amenities and the accessibility to walks surrounding Longnor. We hope this review is taken in the spirit of helpful advice for marketing purposes.

"We very much enjoyed our stay at Heathylee, it was a very comfortable property, particularly the beds."
It was nice to know that the owners were on hand should you need them ( but we did not). We were easily able to explore around Longnor and the surrounding areas, and a bonus for dining was the newly opened Cheshire Cheese Pub, this alongside the Chip shop makes Longnor a lovely village to visit. Thank you. G& P N

"We had a lovely visit again, now our third time at Heathylee."
The property and the location are well suited to a family group and we hope to return again.
-
"Great property, ideal location."
The cottage is beautifully maintained and had everything we needed. Our first visit to the area and would definitely stay at Heathylee again. Thanks Debbie for the welcome milk etc, a lovely touch. Overall, a fantastic stay.
-
"This was our second stay at Heathylee and we had another fab week there, thanks again Debra for the welcome milk and biscuits along with tea and coffee."
It’s a great place to stay with lots of great walks from the cottage and the views from the bedrooms are amazing! Hopefully the pub will re-open soon as we missed it, the fish and chips are still great. I’m sure this won’t be our last stay at Heathylee

"We enjoyed a Christmas in Heathylee."
Everything clean and comfortable. Would certainly go again.
-
"Excellent cottage, well appointed, really enjoyable stay"
-
"Highly recommended."
Cosy and warm with all creature comforts. Good location with shops including an excellent fish and chip shop. A shame that the local pub has closed but the pub in the next village was very welcoming with good food and drink.
-
"We liked the property very much, it was ideally situated for the local attractions that we were hoping to see as first time visitors to the area, plus well stocked local village shops."
Comfortable beds, good size dining room, easy to use tv remote, well appointed kitchen. The one issue we had was easily rectified by the owner who fixed promptly.
-

"This is our second visit to Heathylee, which suits us perfectly in terms of location and layout."
Lovely views and local walks, friendly hosts.
-
"Excellent property in a great location for walking."
Has a shop, cafe and pub within 2 mins or so walk as well. Will definitely be back.
-
"We enjoyed the week and would come again."
The house was great, my only suggestion would be to get the bathrooms warmer but we had decent enough weather so it wasn’t a huge issue.
-
"We really enjoyed our stay at Heathylee and would definitely return."
Very quiet location with a decent pub for food and drink nearby, and although not on the doorstep of major attractions, Bakewell, Chatsworth, Buxton, Matlock and Alton Towers are all within easy reach. The cottage was very comfortable and we found it far more spacious than it appears from the photos (which don't make it look small).
-
"There was tea, coffee, biscuits and even milk in the fridge when we arrived…a lovely welcoming touch, thanks Debbie"
-
"An lovely cottage with all the facilities we could possibly want."
We had a lovely winter break, thank you!
-
"Lovely cottage."
Perfect location for walking in the Peak District. Owners of the property very helpful. There were a couple of issues which were resolved very quickly. Would definitely recommend.
-
"Absolutely fantastic stay."
Super clean and spacious. Only negative was the back door didnt open without force.
-
"Lovely holiday home, plenty of room."
Great views. Everything there you need. Comfy. No complaints. Tea and milk there for our arrival. Friendly owner. Nice peaceful garden , was lovely to sit out and enjoy the sun.
-
"Overall a really nice cottage and a lovely stay."
The beds were exceptionally warm and comfortable. Each bedroom had a working TV although tall people be wary of low door frames. The kitchen was very well equipped with cutlery, plates, glasses etc and all the appliances were in clean working order. We did find the very small outside bins a slight issue as it was full when we arrived. The downstairs shower room was very handy water pressure and temperature was excellent. The upstairs bathroom extractor fan was very noisy and we found the downstairs toilet door kept jamming which made a very loud echoing noise. The dining room and sitting room were comfortable. The dvd player did not work and we reported this to the owner but got no response. The carparking was a squeeze. Advertised for 3 cars but this seemed unlikely. Nice pub and fish and chip shop in the village and lots of great walks and views in the area. Thank you for our stay.

"A fabulous holiday cottage in a lovely location for exploring the Peak District and surrounding villages and towns."
The owner, Mrs Lee was very helpful and friendly, the cleanliness of the house was first class and everything was very comfortable making it a real home from home. We had a great stay and look forward to returning!
-
"Very high standard accommodation."
Well equipped, very spacious, high levels of cleanliness, good location for walking/exploring the area. Parking for 3 standard size cars is possible. I can highly recommend this cottage.
-
"We had a lovely stay at Heathylee."
The cottage is really comfortable and well set up for a family. Debra is a fantastic and attentive host (including posting back some left clothing), and Longnor is a nice and peaceful village.
-
"Quiet location in delightful village."
Parking for two cars very useful. Very comfortable bed and excellent bathroom.Everything was clean and comfortable.
-
"Lovely clean property with everything you need."
The owner lives next door and called to make sure everything was ok. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to get away, I wasn’t able to go walking in this occasion but there are some great walks from the doorstep with Dragons back being a must. Chippy also do a very nice fish and chips
-
"Utterly amazing, brilliant property, ideal location"

-
"Nice cottage good location."

-
"Lovely house in a beautiful part of the Peak District"
-
"I can only say Heathylee met expectations as having holidayed with you numerous times before my expectations were high and they were met fully."
Heathylee is a beautiful cottage in exceptionally picturesque countryside. It was very well equipped for all eventualities during my stay and I could not fault the cleanliness. As you can tell I had a faultless week away and would thoroughly recommend this cottage.
-
"Heathylee in Longmor is well located for touring the Peal District."
The cottage was more spacious than we expected, and we found it clean and well appointed for a holiday let. Both access roads were narrow. The higher one was slightly wider but still challenging for our vehicle. (1.85m wide, 2.06m at mirrors). Good parking spot in front of property. There was excellent BT wi-fi, but like much of the Peak District, mobile signals struggled. However, at the property, we had good mobile signals for O2. The TVs in the lounge and all bedrooms were great for our teenage grandchildren! We would also recommend the local Fish and Chip shop (check opening times!) and the popular Royal Oak pub at Hurdlow.
-
"Cottage was excellent and very clean indeed."
The cottage contained everything that was required and ideal for a week's holiday. It was located in the middle of the peak district with easy access to everything we wanted to do and see. An ideal family cottage.
-
"Longnor is a very attractive village and Heathylee offers beautiful views of the surrounding countryside."
The interior of the house is very well appointed, with an amazingly high open-beam ceiling in the first bedroom. The first floor bathroom and the ground floor shower room are very nicely finished off. The kitchen is well equipped and the dining room and sitting are both very pleasant rooms.
-
"A lovely cottage in a quiet location, almost centre of the Peak District so most places of interest can be reached quiet easily, the only minor thing is that we had no mobile phone signal in the village (this may have been a blessing)."
-
"The cottage is amazing and longnor is a nice quiet village so if your looking ..."

"A lovely cottage had everything we needed great location."
Biscuits, milk and flowers in the cottage when we arrived . Owners live next door always on hand if needed . Very good fish and chip shop in village and general stores everybody so friendly. We are hoping to return next year.
-
"The house was beautiful, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the showers were lovely."
We had a fabulous time and would like to return in the future
-
"Lovely cottage, clean, comfortable and with everything we needed for a self catering holiday."
The owner had left cream eggs, milk, tea bags, coffee and a packet of biscuits as a welcome. All very much appreciated. Good location for lots of sightseeing.
-
"The cottage was excellent, very well kept and very well equipped."
The setting is lovely and there was plenty to entertain the family in the area. The bedrooms were ample in size and the downstairs rooms were comfortable. The owners were very helpful. The setting is very rural in a lovely small village. The nearest reasonably sized town (Buxton) was about 10 minutes away along roads typical of the peak district. The access road into the cottage is very, very narrow with dry stone walls on either size but I did see someone drive a Toyota Hilux along the road. All in all, an excellent holiday.
