Nice Short Stay
Check-in was easy and instructions were very clear, could do with some up-to-date equipment in the kitchen, but overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Week long holiday in the Peaks
Lovely apartment. The stairs provide useful training for any walks you might be planning (lol). The kitchen was well equipped and a generally sure location. Anyone over 6 foot tall may have to duck to get under the shower properly but that wasn't a problem for us.

Good Jump-Off Point for the Peak District.
Central location behind a chip shop and beside the canals.A unique layout due to the numerous levels.Basement floor is the full bathroom and kitchen, with access to the patio directly behind the fish and chip shop vent. Ground floor, a spacious living area and the front door. The upper floor is the 2 bedrooms and a toilet. Very comfy beds but since it's summer time, and a heatwave, it needed a fan. The outside was a bit noisy with the road with the windows open at night. Needed a little bit more TLC with the cleaning.

Nice house, good location. Lots of stairs. We ended up parking mainly in the big free car park just down from the property, it does fill up during the day though. Not the world’s fastest WiFi but okay. Living area was comfy, kitchen was well equipped. The shower is over the bath, the bath isn’t particularly wide, it’s a little hard to stand in. Biggest issue was the open hatch above the upstairs bathroom door - it was very draughty, even in May. Good location for exploring the Peak District, nice canal walks, close to Manchester and National Trust properties.

good location, excellent easy parking in the free car park literally 50 yards away. close to town and nearby coffee shop and fish n chip shop. - all in all a good location for exploring the Peak District - everything is kind of 10 miles or 20 minutes way in nice country roads. Very handy Tesco superstor 5 mins walk or 2 mins drive

Fantastic stay
Whaley Bridge is interesting and active little town. Plenty of options for food and at least three good pubs. The cottage had everything we wanted and we did a couple of great walks from the door.

Easter Break
Lovely property, too many stairs. Very comfy bed. Couldn't get the heating to actually warm the property up, no matter how high we set it. Need a bread knife and a new frying pan. Great location. Enjoyed our stay.
Recommend, value for money, Honey Suckle Cottage, always our go to when visiting UK to see family close by.
Great setting, near shops, cafes, canal and public transport.
Not suitable for young children due to stairs.

Lovely cottage
Feels spacious because its over 3 floors (lounge is in the middle) We liked the fact it was near the canal and really enjoyed the cosy fire :)
Lovely property, very well equipped, loved the wood burner, many extras washing up liquid, washing powder , hand wash , logs , fire lighters, toilet roll ect.
Unfortunately to many stairs for me .

An ok stay
There were positives about this property but also some negatives. The house was warm, we enjoyed the wood burner, the beds comfy and the shower good. It was superficially clean but not really clean (the kitchen floor was grimy, so too all the edges and corners of the rooms), the nearby road was noisy with the bedroom window open at night and the house lacked some basics (no mop for said kitchen floor, no tea towels or dish cloths which we ended up buying just for the stay). It lacked the extras that make a stay more special and welcoming. Overall a good enough property but not one we’d rush back to.
