Wendy

Everything was fantastic and the owners were on hand if we needed anything. It was Storm Claudia on the day we arrived so the weather was horrible with lots of delays so without even being asked they put a light on to help us find the property more easily and put the heating up so it was cosy when we arrived. Brilliantly equipped and lovely kitchen so self-catering was a dream...we even made bread and a birthday cake! Lots of fabulous walks available right from the door. Highly recommend and we definitely plan to return to this lovely haven.

Waters Edge @ The Alleys is a lovely, idyllic place to stay if you want a quiet relaxing time to recharge your batteries. Kath the owner was very welcoming and the wine and mince pies were a lovely touch. We fully intend to return later in the year and would fully recommend the property to all.

Femke

We loved the cottage. It was very homely, very well equipped, and the bed was extremely comfortable. The location was stunning: very quiet, with beautiful hills and lots of birds.

Michael

Lovely quiet and pretty location but close to shops and to the Peak District and other attractions. Very well-equipped and supplied with all sorts of handy things from fly spray to sandwich bags. Very comfortably furnished and a very warm welcome from owner. We would certainly return.

Carol

Fridge was left open so icebox was frozen up we had to clean before use. were pack very poor. Some double glazed windows had gone so streaming with water. Cooker controls were worn so no indications of temperature. Lady who owned property really nice but needs tlc.
