  • "A lovely spacious cottage with large lawned area to the rear."

    There is a small caravan site behind so expect some traffic movement across the front of the property.

  • "Limers Cottage ticks all the right boxes!"

    Warm and cosy, great location with short drive to Bakewell and Buxton and other attractions, extremely well-equipped kitchen and helpful owners nearby. Recommended pub for real ales and excellent food is the Bulls Head in Monyash and lunchtime cafes worth seeking out are the Honey Bun in Bakewell, the Hartington Farm Shop and the Peveril Tearooms in Castletown

  • "We enjoyed our stay - and would come again."

    In fact based on my description, a relative has booked for later in the year. The house is as described, is comfortable and clean and everything works. It is on a working farm amongst farms so animal noise to be expected. Sue (owner) was helpful. Onsite parking well defined & easy. Flagg is between Buxton & Bakewell. Lots of good walking and (the clue is in the name 'Peak District') cycling - on safe local roads (national trails). Monsal Trail is family friendly & virtually flat. If cycling avoid the A6. Local pubs have standard pub fare and are fine. Baslow has more restaurants. Buxton & Bakewell are both near with other cafes and restaurants .... we preferred Buxton with its Crescent, Opera House and park complete with bandstand to visit. Chatsworth (book online as not always open - huge treasure house need a couple if days), Haddon & Hardwick Halls are close.

    We found it a good, centrally located, base for visiting many of the areas of interest in the local area. On our arrival we were pleasantly surprised to find provisions, for our immediate needs, had been provided. The cottage comes with WIFI which is particularly important as the mobile phone signal in the area is very patchy at best. The garden, the children loved as it had a swing, a Wendy house and a selection of outside toys as well as being a great place for them to explore.

    The location was great for us with walks from the door, the owner came out to greet us on arrival which was great as she made us feel very welcome. On entering the cottage there were fresh flowers and a lovely welcome pack, we thought this was a very nice touch. If people are new to the area there were only a few leaflets regarding local information, it would have been great if there were more giving local walks or places of interest nearby to visit. The only other point is the wiring hanging out of the walls where the extractor fans are to be fitted, this does look a bit untidy and would benefit from being completed.

    We were only made aware the week before our visit. We took with us a selection of DVD films to watch on an evening. There was also a selection of DVDs at the cottage but no DVD player. We had to buy films off the Amazon chanel. There is a large wall unit in main bedroom, as it sticks out so far from the wall you have to duck to get into bed, needless to say if I got up during the night I kept hitting my head on it! It is a lovely cottage, well situated for all activities and not far from main roads. I would recommend slipper socks as the tiled flooring is cold even when heating is on. The little welcome bits provided we're greatly appreciated. My daughter now loves white Stilton.
