The cottage was clean and comfortable. Location is excellent - quiet, but with 2 pubs (serving food) within 2 minutes walk, and very convenient for visiting the area. The welcome pack of food and drink was much appreciated. Overall, we would recommend it. The downsides were - Because of the location of the cottage (in a dead-end) it is necessary to turn the car around each time you park. This was manageable for us as we have a medium sized car, it was daylight whenever we parked, and (crucially) the neighbouring cottage was unused the whole time we were there and so didn’t have a car there. Had the neighbouring property been occupied it would have made turning round/parking a lot more difficult. This should be mentioned in the property description, perhaps with a warning for anyone with a large vehicle. The outside of the conservatory and the path/patio area just outside the conservatory could do with a good clean and tidy up. The steps up to the patio (from the conservatory) are quite narrow, and were made narrower by overgrowing plants and plant pots on the steps. One of the steps seemed slightly wobbly. Some of the doors are quite squeaky (as is the toilet seat when raised/lowered), which is not ideal when getting up in the night and trying to avoid waking others. Some WD40 would be worth a try. The drawers in the chest of drawers opposite the toilet are quite hard to open. The microwave is very small - it is not possible to fit a normal sized dinner plate in it, which is not ideal if you are trying to warm a whole plate of food.

A clean and well located cottage. A 1 minute walk to the nearest pub (the Crispin) and a 5 minutes walk to join the Mondale Trail Overall I would happily recommend it. I visited at the end of December, so as might be expected with a traditional old cottage, it took a few extra radiators to keep it warm and it was too cold even with heaters for us to use the conservatory, which would be lovely in warmer times for breakfast. Lovely local milk in the welcome box. One slat support missing on the bed in the smaller bedroom which needs fixing.

We had such a wonderful week at Sunnylea Cottage. It was the perfect half term retreat in such a peaceful village. Absolutely fantastic facilities - kitchen fully stocked with all the necessary cooking equipment, two ample bedrooms (one single) and a great bathroom Incredibly clean - we could not fault the cleanliness. So very cosy - having the fire in the evening was bliss and allowed for such a relaxing break. To top it off, the host, Jane, was incredibly friendly. All pros and no cons with Sunnylea!

Beautiful, well maintained cottage in a perfect location for exploring the Peak District either on foot or by road. Perfect for a quiet and peaceful break, the village of Great Longstone has 2 excellent pubs serving great food and drink within a few minutes walking distance. The Monsal Trail, (once part of the Midland Main Line) is also only 10 minutes walk away. Haddon Hall, Chatsworth House and the Critch Tram Museum are also nearby. Can highly recommend Sunnylea Cottage.
