This must be the most photographed and written about luxury holiday cottage in the whole of the Peak District. Because it's stone walls are smothered in clematis, a medley of colour from roses and sweet peas which clamber up the wall beside the front door.

We have sensitively improved the cottage so that it is warm and cosy, a delight to live in yet retaining all its charm and character.
