I have stayed in Meadow Cottage a number of times and have always been made to feel very welcome. There is so much to do in the area for all ages and all weathers. I have visited a number of places Buxton, Chatsworth House, Little Moreton Hall, Gawsworth, Bramhall Hall, Goyt Valley, Castleton- the list is endless. I have also been to a number of eating places including the Highway Man which serves delicious food but you need to get there early as it is very popular with the locals. Meadow Cottage itself is an upside down cottage to take advantage of the rural views. There are two bedrooms downstairs with the underfloored heated bathroom. Upstairs there is an open plan lounge, kitchen and dining room. The cottage is very tastefully decorated with green leather sofa and chairs. The kitchen area ia well equiped with the usual appliances. On several occasions we have booked in for the cooked breakfast. These are cooked to order and only local fresh ingredients are used.

Highly recommended.
