[#2673542]

Eight of us (6 adults, 2 v small children) planning to converge on the Peaks this summer, three of us bringing MTBs. Looking for a 4 bed self-catered place for a week, I think. Recommendations on which area or even specific cottages much appreciated!

just stayed in Longnor here http://www.merrilgrovecottages.net/ v. nice, and thoroughly reccomended.

Its a bit out in the sticks but that a good thing as there are a couple of good routes v close in Hollinsclough/Chrome hill and Wildboarclough (with some very rocky descents and climbs), within easy striking distance of the trails near Buxton, Goyt Valley, Bakewell and Matlock, Ladybower is approx 30-40mins drive away (I think, never managed to get there though) and a stonking good pub (the Packhorse) about 4 miles away at Crowdecote ๐Ÿ™‚

Castleton/ Hope/ Hathersage are all stacked with cottages, but fairly pricey. Hayfield is probably cheaper, but equally good riding.
Shameless plug for the neighbours cottages: [url= http://horwichfarm.co.uk/ourspring/ ]Whaley Bridge[/url]

I like the Yorkshire Bridge Inn nr Ladybower or the Plough nr Hathersage. Both great in their own way.
