What a great idea! 🐶

Would you like to join us for a reactive dog walk on Sunday morning?

We'll start at 9 am from a location we'll share with you via email on Saturday afternoon.

There's ample space, beautiful views, and opportunities to make new doggy friends along the way!

It's important that your dog has good training and control to attend, as we want to avoid stress or injury to any dogs or people during the walk.

We expect some reactions, but don’t make it stressful for your dog, if they aren’t ready for it, yet.

If you’d like to join us, I’ll pop the link in the comments for you.

We’re running these right through the winter for dogs of all sizes and breeds 🐶

Congratulations Vernon - you conquered yesterday in style and the whole is so proud of you! 💚

Good luck on your final stretch today!! 😀

His total raised for BBC Children in Need so far is a staggering £3.1 million! 👏

If Vernon's visit to the Peak District has inspired you to discover more about this special place, start your own adventure at https://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/visiting or check out how we take care of it here https://www.peakdistrictfoundation.org.uk.

And don't worry, you don't need to do an Ultra Ultra Challenge to make the most of your national park - but we'd definitely recommend a Bakewell pudding along the way! 😉

Although we don’t allow parties of any kind, we do love to see our guests spend their special birthdays and anniversaries in our beloved cottage. Our kitchen is a great size to add a few balloons 🎈and there’s lovely pubs and restaurants nearby to celebrate with a special meal 🥂 🎉
Low-key birthdays are the best in the Peaks 🥳

Happy International Nurses’ Day!

Here is our Aunty Dilly who we named our beloved cottage after 💕 She spent her whole working life dedicated to looking after patients.

Along with her identical twin sister, she trained at hospitals in Liverpool and Edinburgh. She worked every Christmas Day during her career.

Aunty Dilly, who was a sister on a surgical ward at Ealing Hospital during the latter part of her career, used to say it was so important be a nurse ‘by the bedside’. She was so passionate about looking after her patients.

After she retired, Aunty Dilly was awarded an MBE for her services to nursing by Queen Elizabeth II in 1993. To our family she was like a nan to us and incredibly inspiring.

Thank you to Aunty Dilly and to all the nurses for their hard work and selfless dedication.

Most people's first experience of Winnats Pass will be driving through the pass via the road. It really is one of those wow moments and if you're lucky to be the passenger you can really

“Did you say dog friendly?” 🐶

Now that we have removed the carpet downstairs and replaced it with luxury vinyl flooring which is easy to clean, we can now accept doggies 🐶 🐾 🐶 🐾

With the arrival of our beloved cocker spaniel we knew we wanted to make sure he could come with us and also give our guests the option to bring their fluffy best friend too 🥰

Doggy guests must be well-behaved and they aren’t allowed upstairs though.

So lucky to have this wonderful pub on Dilly’s doorstep for our guests, and, for us too! Food and the service has always been consistently excellent ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Review of the star inn, Tideswell: Excellent pub

That’s the main maintenance done for this year ✔️

We’ve had new flooring throughout downstairs (really recommend Mister Carpet) with a splash of colour on the walls 🎨

Really hope our guests like our improvements as they are the reason we do it 🤗 we want to make our cottage as cosy and nice as we can. Plus painting is rather therapeutic!

Swipe to see the new pics and how it was before ➡️
