  It is perfect for the area. The village has a couple of pubs and a restaurant. Perfect for dog walkers and hikers. The cottage is quite spacious a good kitchen and bathroom facilities , especially a downstairs toilet. Absolutely lovely, thank you.

  It's great news that you were on a return visit to the cottage and again enjoyed your stay. I hope you do return as the Peaks are very different as the seasons change, but always lovely. Property Owner

  Very good location, comfortable accommodation, great walks for both humans and dogs, lovely play area for children, enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to come back again

  It's lovely to hear that you enjoyed your stay in the cottage and I hope you visit again. The Pack Horse pub 50 yards away from the cottage now has a Michelin star! Thank you so much for changing the light bulb during your stay. Property Owner

• "Lovely cottage."

  All very clean & comfortable. Delightful location. Safe for visiting small grandchildren as gated front and back. Outside space bigger than appears on photos. Excellent!

  I'm really pleased that you enjoyed your stay at the cottage including the outside space. It's nice to have space front and back so that you can get shade as the sun moves around. I know that some of your family live nearby and you know the area well so you probably went to the cricket matches! Property Owner

• "Really enjoyed our stay in Hayfield."

  The cottage is very central and comfortable too. Lots of walks close by and the village has everything you need. There wasn’t an empty cupboard in the kitchen for our food etc ( that didn’t need a fridge) but there was a cupboard full of various half empty sauce bottles, oils, tea, coffee etc that other guests had left behind. I personally think these, if opened should be disposed of not left cluttering the cupboard. There was also a half used tube of toothpaste in a basket in the bathroom! However, we really enjoyed our stay and thank you for the welcome gifts for us and Betty our Schnauzer

  It's great to hear that you really enjoyed your stay in Hayfield and found the cottage comfortable, the village does have everything you need including restaurants, shops, butchers and a pharmacy all set in stunning countryside. I'm sorry that you felt that the oils, tea, coffee etc that was supplied should have been disposed of as they have been made available should you require them as some of them are only used on an occasional basis and are not items that you bring with you. They are not items that can be contaminated when stored. I requested advice from Public Health regarding you comments on the condiments available to guests and the response was that they couldn't comment on services not charged for. Guests had the choice to use these items supplied for their convenience or not according to their personal preferences Pat Property Owner

• "A beautiful, cosy cottage in the heart of a friendly, welcoming village."

  Everything that we needed was provided, along with plenty of information about the local area. There is on-street parking close to the property which is very helpful as we came with two vehicles. There are two small shops and three cafes in the village too. The cafes are open at the weekend with one open from Wednesday to Sunday. And of course being opposite the fabulous gastropub The Pack Horse is a huge bonus.

  It's lovely to hear that you found Hayfield welcoming and really enjoyed your stay in the Peak District. Hayfield also has a nice restaurant which specialises in italian food that does take out! I hope you visit again, the seasons really change in the Peak District with heather in flower on the moors in tha autumn. Hayfield is also below the snow line should there be a heavy downfall!

  Walks and various attractions nearby, glad we came, had a great time, highly recommend.

  I am so pleased you had a great time and found Hayfield a friendly place. As you say Hayfield is still well supplied with pubs and pets are welcome in most of them. I hope you enjoy the rest of the summer Pat Property Owner

• "Wonderful week at The Cottage."

  The property is extremely comfortable and well appointed; the owner has thought of everything and was very helpful with information about the area. Hayfield is in a fabulous location for walking. Dogs have to be on lead at this time of year throughout the Peaks but local people went out of their way to suggest off-lead walks to me, such a friendly area. There are many nice eateries in Hayfield or within a short drive but the cottage was so cosy I enjoyed going to the excellent Hayfield butcher and cooking at home most evenings.

  Thanks you so much for your feedback and for taking care of the cottage as if it was your home. Hayfield is a working village in a lovely area where visitors are welcomed. During the summer months there are various events including a sheep dog trials! thanks for all your communications and feedback Pat Property Owner

  A King size would be better, we spent every night tugging at the quilt or waking up cold. The deluxe towels on the other hand were an absolute delight. So luxurious.

  I'm sorry you had a problem with the duvet, I will give some thought to changing the bedding. I hope you enjoyed the remainder of your holiday and that the bluebell woods were at their best Kind regards Pat Property Owner

• "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in The Cottage."

  Location in the centre of Hayfield was really handy for the local amenities. The property was very clean with everything you could think to make our stay comfortable and easy. A nice size with space to move around Generous welcome pack with dog treats too. A secure paved garden space and it's own parking space. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable with good storage space for clothes. Shower was good. We liked it so much, we have booked again for later in the year.

  Thank you for your feedback, it's great to know you enjoyed the Peak District. I hope you enjoy your next stay as much as you did this one, each season brings it's own pleasures and challenges and and in the autumn you can sometimes see the Northern Lights in the dark sky. Pat Property Owner

  It was our second visit and we will certainly return. A great location with plenty of walks nearby, plenty of places to have a drink or some food. The cottage is very clean, cosy and comfortable. And everything works! We've been elsewhere where this is not the case, but The Cottage at Hayfield is so well appointed. It is highly recommended. 5 stars!.

  The Cottage was very clean tidy and cosy. I was able to take my two dogs who was very happy as there are lots of little local walks or longer walks depending on your own ability. We will be booking again soon

  The cottage has everything you need and was spotlessly clean. We’d love to visit again.

  We would love to see you again, hopefully when the weather is a bit better. The peaks are lovely in the sun or snow but not so good in the rain when the views are limited Property Owner

• "A delightful warm and cosy cottage with everything you need for a lovely, relaxing holiday."

  It was certainly home from home. We enjoyed the Welcome Pack which included milk, bubbly and human and dog treats. There was also plenty of supplies in the store cupboards. This is the first holiday cottage that we have stayed in that has supplied all day-to-day essentials. Enclosed front and rear yard areas for our 2 terriers. Perfectly situated for all the local amenities and local walks. Enjoyed regular walks along the flat Sett Valley Trail with a lovely welcoming Cafe half way (1 mile). Slightly disappointed with local eateries, although enjoyed Sunday lunch and an evening meal at The Lamb Inn, which is a short drive away. Will hopefully be returning to The Cottage again. Thank you.

  Thanks you so much for your comments. I hope when you return you try The Sportsman which is a scenic walk away up Kinder Road. My late husband and I used to drive up, enjoy wine with our meal and walk back. Dogs are welcome there and our dogs liked the walk back and the walk the following morning to retrieve the car. I am told that The Sportsman can also offer pre-booked eat at home Sunday lunches! The Pack Horse, 2 minutes away is highly recommended but I understand that you have to book in advance as it is so popular. Property Owner

  Wonderful property in lovely location. Extremely well equipped - perfect for holiday with dog

  I'm really pleased that you (and your pets) enjoyed your holiday. Thank you for your kind comments. The nice thing about the location is that while it is so close to all the facilities it faces an unadopted road so that it is really safe for wayward dogs - I have a border collie so I should know.

  The property is close to stunning countryside and walks, befitting the Peak District. The cottage is brilliantly situated but will test your parking skills if you have an estate like us. We would definitely return here if we were coming to this area again.

  Thnk you for your feedback, I'm glad you appreciated being in the centre of the conservation area. The parking is tight and if the weather is icy I park on the road!
