Riverside Cottage, Milldale, Nr Dovedale, Peak District

A beautiful cottage in a gorgeous location. Very well equipped and lots of extras provided. The bed is super comfortable and big ! Top quality amenities. We had a lovely stay.

Lovely place - didn’t want to leave. Clean, well equipped and cozy. Great hikes on your doorstep. Supplies all 20 minutes away if you need anything. Can’t say how much I didn’t want to leave !

We had a perfect stay in the Bankside cottage. Milldale is very small (7 houses?), beautiful and quiet place, especially in the evening when daytrippers have left. The cottage has everything you need. Good beds, decent seating in living room, lots of kitchen equipment, washing / drying machine etc. The Master bedroom is very spacious with a good bed. The rest of the sleeping rooms are doable but much smaller. Bathroom is very spacious and shower and bath have good waterflow. The Wifi was also decent enough to make good phone calls over Whatsapp and to surf with multiple persons at the same time. Please mind that persons taller then say 180 cm will need to bend over a bit when moving from room to room downstairs, but that is not really a problem. It is good to know (please check Google maps!) that there is a daytrippers parking lot 50m from the house. This is used by people walking the Dovedale from the Milldale side. Traffic can start around 7-8 am growing to like 5 cars per hour in the morning and the same in afternoon/evening and people will not drive to slow (40-50km/h; please mind your kids!!!). You will hear this in the house, but you will get used to it. NB: we had some initial problems getting into the house due to miscommunications on the key code. Next to that the fire-alarm went off twice in the initial night around 1:30 and 5 am which was a bit nasty. Both issues were however dealt with promptly and satisfactory.
