8.0 / 10.0Excellent·jul 2025
Brow Farm is superbly located, close to amenities of New Mills and with stunning views. It is quiet, has plenty of parking and is beautifully maintained. The living and dining area is spacious for 4 adults and the welcome and hospitality is first class. The twin bedroom (which we did not use) is very good, but the second bedroom downstairs is small. The main bedroom with ensuite upstairs is fine, but note that the bed is a double with very firm mattress - personally I would take out the wardrobe and have wall pegs for hanging in order to fit a king or superking bed, and review the mattress. Larger towels would be better and a shelf for soap/shampoo in the shower. The kitchen is well-equipped, but a larger refrigerator would be better if 4-6 people are staying for a few days (it is an under-counter size with icebox only). Overall we enjoyed our stay, including a very pleasant walk to New Mills and the lovely pubs there, but a few refinements in the cottage would make it 5 star.

This is such a lovely house in a beautiful location, even the rainy weather didn't detract. We fully relaxed and felt right at home. Cath and Dave are great hosts and we enjoyed the home made flapjack :) Such a great location for walking, surrounding towns and great places to eat. We will be back with the dog! Thank you

Our family of 5 (13,16,16, 2-adults) had a great experience! Dave and Cath we VERY responsive to all questions, and the home was perfect. They live on a great hobby farm with lots of animals to see. Perfect 5min walk to a cute small town including: grocery, meat market, coffee, and great shopping, great views, excellent hospitality (and the farm fresh eggs and brownies we delish!). For the golfers, there’s even an excellent 18 hole golf course 5 minutes away! Don’t miss out on this rental!

We had a lovely break with friends in this superb cottage. Beautiful location and lovely views. Lovely walks just out from the cottage over the Peaks. Cottage was spotlessly clean and well equipped, everything we wanted and more! Perfect for us and our dogs! We’d recommend the local Italian- delicious pizzas to take away. Owners were very helpful and discreet. The welcome pack included a delicious homemade lemon drizzle cake which was amazing!
