Lovely cozy cottage in a quiet rural location with all the comforts you would want/need on a break. Great location if you want to explore rural Staffordshire or the Derbyshire Dales. Totally recommend this great property! 🙂
All as advertised and to a high standard, tho' I would recommend bring your own soap.
