"Beautiful cottage, clean and cosy."
Everything you needed available. Secure enclosed garden for a dog and you can even block off the small gap under the gate should you have a small dog eg chihuahua. Best of all is the location, it is so quiet and peaceful just the sound of the birds to listen to. Excellent place to relax and recharge your battery. Phil was very friendly and lovely to be met at the property in person and shown around. We loved it so much we have already rebooked for 2025. Can not wait to return.

"Fabulous holiday property used for the third time this year."
All amenities are there and it is such a relaxed site. Phil is always there, if needed. We would highly recommend it to anyone…… and the dogs loved the fully enclosed garden.

"The property was perfect for us and our two dogs."
The garden is beautiful and secure and so very peaceful. The wi-fi was not an issue, with a very good signal. The track up to the farm.. is a farm track.. but in good order for a farm track.. and not an issue at farm track speed.
We feel this property was truly a perfect find, and we will be returning.

"We very much liked the cottage and the surroundings."
Clean, quiet and all necessities were present.
Unfortunately the was no phone signal in the area and no mobile internet nor was the wifi in the cottage working but of 2 nights. As much as we like it quiet we would have needed to be contactable as we had animal sitters on our place at home. And we were unable to plan next days walks.
Also any instructions for the appliances and for the leaving day were not present in the cottage.
Luckily we could sort the heating system so it wasn't making the loud noises at unexpected times.

"The cottage is located on a farm which is found down a single track road and then up a farm track, so don't expect it to be easy on your suspension."
But it is worth it to find the lovely cottages with a superb view out across the rolling hillside. Horseshoe cottage is well kitted out with everything you need for a wonderful stay. Mobile phone signal is poor to being non existent, but there is some wi-fi to keep you connected to the outside world. Cheadle is only a couple of miles for takeaways and shopping. Good location to access all the Peak District has to offer. Will definitely be visiting again.

"A Bostinly quiet and peaceful area on a working farm."
Just the sounds of some cows going to be milked, birds singing and Bostin views .. what more could we ask for?
Horse Shoe Cottage was really spacious and comfortable with a spacious kitchen, big enough for 3 people to cook at once!
The bedrooms were again spacious and comfortable, the only little problem was our daughter suffers from ME and it tired her out going to the bathroom and bedroom up and down the stairs, but we had a Bostinly wonderful time.
We will recommend it to all we speak to!

It’s set in the most beautiful tranquil area. The pictures don’t do it justice. It’s warm, cosy and homely with stunning scenery.
The owners are lovely. And very accommodating. There were fresh flowers on the table and milk in the fridge. It’s fully furnished, with towels provided and kitchen appliances and utensils all there.
We only stayed one night, however we’ve decided we will be booking again for longer. Highly recommend.x

shower very good. well-equipped kitchen too. we enjoyed sunshine too so could use the nice backyard/garden
maybe lighting in the lounger area needs to be brighter- not the best for reading and writing in evenings.

"Very nice cottage."
.lots of space, well equipped, comfortable and warm. However, the visitor book and our experience logs several instances of the boiler being vary loud. It wasn’t just the clunking but for us the real problem was really noisy reverberation of the pipes at 6.30am!
The owner advised put the heating on full blast to ease the pressure but then it was red hot! Next was to leave windows open as well and that was a solution but seems very wasteful!

Everything we could possibly need had been provided, even down to instruction manuals for the kitchen appliances being left easily accessible should we have run into any problems.There were shops and pubs/restaurants within a ten minute drive of the cottage, and plenty to do to entertain our two young children within an hour's drive, including Alton Towers, Poole's Caverns, and Waterworld Stoke. I would highly recommend Horseshoe Cottage, it was the perfect countryside retreat!

"This cottage is deceptively larger than it looks from the outside, it is extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need."
Lovely enclosed garden for the dogs, and plenty of walks from the farm.
The only downside was, the radiator in the bathroom wasn’t working, which was a little on the chilly side as it was snowing outside, also bath sheets would be nice as towels are very small.
Having said that this is a beautiful cottage and we had a lovely stay, it was very quiet, with lots of wildlife, we would love to return in the summer.

"We had an enjoyable stay in this nice cottage."
The positives certainly out-weighed the negatives. It would have been nice to have Wi_Fi & a Mobile phone signal, but a week without internet was not the end of the world. The bigger downside was that the guests in the twin bedroom, slept poorly, due to the constant noise created by the Boiler/Radiator. This was something previous guests had commented on in the Visitors Book.
The directions to the property need updating, as the Highwayman Pub has long gone,being replaced by newish housing.
All in all a great week away, & hope these comments are helpful. Regards REX CAMERON
