The Square

Had a wonderful stay in The Square, despite hitting the week with three storms and plenty of rain. Victor was so welcoming on arrival and Sue so helpful with communications.The cottage was just ideal for all our needs with real antique feel lounge , so cosy with wood burner, and a second lounge area on top floor. Beds so comfortable. Really appreciated the welcome pack with few basics plus lovely honey and a bottle of wine. Very accommodating with flexible time of arrival and departure. We really hope to return but next time in summer months to enjoy the garden and Parwich in the sun.

A delightful, comfortable house, very well equipped and perfectly situated for terrific walks (required by young Labrador) along the trails. A really good selection of books in every room, exceptional furniture (superior to most holiday cottages), quality Wentworth jigsaws. Splendid welcome from Vic. Good info, village pub with convenient shop inside. Loads to do nearby (Tissington, Dovedale, Minninglow, Hardwick Hall, Keddleston, Chatsworth a little further away, Haddon Hall, Calke Abbey). We are going back!

This is a wonderful cottage to relax and unwind in well curated comfort. The stunning walks, market towns and stately homes of the Peak district are just on your door step or a short trip on the amazingly empty and fun to drive twisty roads. We also need to mention and thank our host Vic, for the warm welcome and top local tips for a gastronomic 5 days. We thoroughly recommend the village pub, The Sycamore, for great food and friendly chat with the locals. Superb!

We’ve just spent a wonderful 10 days at The Square. Sue gave us a lovely welcome, and left fresh delicious local eggs, milk, bread and honey for our first morning. We loved the big sunny West facing windows, the comfy beds, the games room full of things to keep us entertained on rainy days. We made lovely toasty fires on the wood burner and the Rayburn aga-type cooker was easy to use too. There’s a good stock of maps and walks above the fridge, so we had lovely ventures on the Tissington Trail, in Dove Dale and in the local surrounds. We are very much looking forward to our next visit!

What a fabulous house, everything you could ask for set in a beautiful village. Would highly recommend and Sue was a great host.
