When we arrived down a country lane we were greeted by this most amazing view of the Derbyshire countryside and our joy continued as we went into the beautiful modern cottage with large french windows looking out at the view, with music and treats to welcome us. Then we discovered a 2nd sitting room and a large bath in the main bedroom overlooking its own patio and view. We felt like royalty. We were blessed with good weather so had all our meals outside in a private patio area with a gas BBQ, table, chairs and soft seats. We could not have asked for more and so grateful for the hosts for making our first stay away with our son's and partners since the start of the pandemic so so special. Thank you
