The Little Vicarage Cottage Wetton

Excellent. Very clean, extremely well renovated. Quiet and relaxing. Lovely home made cake when we arrive. The homemade jam was out of this world. Very nice, long lasting flowers. Like a home from home experience.

Lovely Property and Host

It's a lovely, very comfortable property and Nicola was a very special host. She made us very welcome and was particularly helpful. Wetton is a great place for walking and visiting Peak district sights.

Great Xmas treat

Absolutely beautifully appointed cottage, the owner had made it a home from home even down to the very tasteful Christmas decorations. Everything you need is in this cottage so it makes it a completely stressful visit. The views over the fantastically tended gardens are a delight to wake up too and it's so quiet a totally relaxing spot, I can't wait to book again for the summer months to get the use of the private patio and bbq sipping a beer or a glass of vino in a totally tranquil setting.

Excellent cottage

Exceeded expectations. Comfortable, decoration style and quality excellent. Position of cottage good for both walking from the door and wider exploring in the car. Friendly owner, and nice setting.

Why they chose this property

After hectic careers in London we decided that instead of trying to escape to the hills every weekend and spend half our weekend on motorways, we would escape the rat race and live in area that we love. The Peak District is perfect for us - handy to get about and set in the heart of the Peak District National Park.We have restored our beautiful Vicarage and have now renovated the barn to provide wonderful holiday accommodation. We live in a great community with a great little village pub!

What makes this property unique

The Old Vicarage sits in the pretty stone village of Wetton nestled in the hills above the Dovedale and Manifold valleys so it is a great location for walking and cycling which we do plenty of with our border Collie dog Maisie!
