Great location, excellent for a lot of local walking. Our host Lisa was very accommodating and arranged for us to have an early check-in which was great. There are three good pubs in the village as well as a couple of bakeries.

What a lovely cottage and an excellent host.
What a lovely cottage and an excellent host. The village of Youlgrave is stunning with plenty of local amenities, x3 pubs, Post Office, Local store and Bakery. Never been to a place which is so praceful at night with no light pollution. Well located for many of the Peak District's pleasures. The log burner was particularly enjoyed as it was still with chilly towards the end of April. Would definately recommend.
