Very good cottage in an excellent location. Lots to do nearby..
The cottage was clean and comfortable. Location is excellent - quiet, but with 2 pubs (serving food) within 2 minutes walk, and very convenient for visiting the area. The welcome pack of food and drink was much appreciated. Overall, we would recommend it. The downsides were - Because of the location of the cottage (in a dead-end) it is necessary to turn the car around each time you park. This was manageable for us as we have a medium sized car, it was daylight whenever we parked, and (crucially) the neighbouring cottage was unused the whole time we were there and so didn’t have a car there. Had the neighbouring property been occupied it would have made turning round/parking a lot more difficult. This should be mentioned in the property description, perhaps with a warning for anyone with a large vehicle. The outside of the conservatory and the path/patio area just outside the conservatory could do with a good clean and tidy up. The steps up to the patio (from the conservatory) are quite narrow, and were made narrower by overgrowing plants and plant pots on the steps. One of the steps seemed slightly wobbly. Some of the doors are quite squeaky (as is the toilet seat when raised/lowered), which is not ideal when getting up in the night and trying to avoid waking others. Some WD40 would be worth a try. The drawers in the chest of drawers opposite the toilet are quite hard to open. The microwave is very small - it is not possible to fit a normal sized dinner plate in it, which is not ideal if you are trying to warm a whole plate of food.
Thank you for leaving your feedback for Sunnylea Cottage. The neighbouring property actually has no parking rights so there isn't an issue at all with parking at the cottage. All squeaks have been eliminated by WD40 and the path cannot be made wider as it is between a wall and the conservatory. The flower pots are there to mark the steps.
A small cottage set in a lovely village. It has an old fashioned open fire which is quirky and keeps you cosy on those chilly evenings. It is spotlessly clean and the host is friendly and helpful. Overall it is a comfortable stay but possibly ready for updating.
A clean and well located cottage. A 1 minute walk to the nearest pub (the Crispin) and a 5 minutes walk to join the Mondale Trail Overall I would happily recommend it. I visited at the end of December, so as might be expected with a traditional old cottage, it took a few extra radiators to keep it warm and it was too cold even with heaters for us to use the conservatory, which would be lovely in warmer times for breakfast. Lovely local milk in the welcome box. One slat support missing on the bed in the smaller bedroom which needs fixing.
A really beautiful cottage in a lovely village. The cottage was spotlessly clean and well looked after. The kitchen is well equipped with high quality crockery and pans etc. I would definitely stay here again and I can highly recommend it.
Beautiful cottage with all home comforts set in a picturesque idyllic village.
A well-equipped cottage in an excellent location. The cottage was in immaculate condition, with access to a garden area. A generous hamper welcomed us on arrival. Spacious for two people - bathrooms could be a punch-point with more - plenty of space in the living areas. 3 pubs with food within walking distance, though 2 closed on Mondays.
Immaculate and perfect location.
Beautiful cottage, wonderful location, Had everything you needed , Can not recommend it enough Hopefully return soon ,
Very comfortable house and very helpful host.
We had such a wonderful week at Sunnylea Cottage. It was the perfect half term retreat in such a peaceful village. Absolutely fantastic facilities - kitchen fully stocked with all the necessary cooking equipment, two ample bedrooms (one single) and a great bathroom Incredibly clean - we could not fault the cleanliness. So very cosy - having the fire in the evening was bliss and allowed for such a relaxing break. To top it off, the host, Jane, was incredibly friendly. All pros and no cons with Sunnylea!
Beautiful, well maintained cottage in a perfect location for exploring the Peak District either on foot or by road. Perfect for a quiet and peaceful break, the village of Great Longstone has 2 excellent pubs serving great food and drink within a few minutes walking distance. The Monsal Trail, (once part of the Midland Main Line) is also only 10 minutes walk away. Haddon Hall, Chatsworth House and the Critch Tram Museum are also nearby. Can highly recommend Sunnylea Cottage.
Clean and comfortable cottage in beautiful location.
Comfortable, compact, nicely furnished. Kitchen well equipped. Convenient situation shops, walks & pubs.
A very well appointed and comfortable cottage in a quiet position. Great Longstone is a great location for walking with three good pubs and the Monsal Trail close by. The cottage had been tastefully decorated for Christmas which was a lovely touch. Highly recommended.
Superbly comfortable, pretty cottage with excellent welcome from host. Wonderful area to explore too.
The cottage was perfect, it was beautifully decorated and so well equipped with everything you need. Really nice little extras like fresh flowers, candles, bath products, books and magazines The hamper was also a really nice touch. In a perfect location with an excellent pub two minutes away. Excellent hospitality from the owners. We will go back again!
Fabulous cottage in fabulous location, couldn’t have asked for more
Lovely cottage in a charming part of the world. Very comfortable and clean with one exception: the outside of the conservatory doors and windows were festooned with spider webs and dead insects. Overall, a very pleasant stay.
Beautiful and comfortable cottage. Very well-equipped. Just what we needed for a relaxing week away in lovely countryside.
