Fresh, clean and charming!
Our stay at TOTS was perfect. Everything is fresh, clean and charming! Julie has thought of everything you might need, I’ve never stayed at a better equipped rental! We had our 4 month old grandson with us and there was everything we could need for him too. There were breakfast goodies and amazing coffee. The location is great for walking and exploring. Great restaurants within walking distance. Tideswell is just lovely!

Weekend Break
TOTS is a very comfortable house right in the centre of Tideswell on the main street. Quite small but with everything you might need and lots of helpful information and thoughtful touches such as a demisting mirror in the shower room and a well equipped shower room in the small courtyard to clean dogs before entering the house. There are plenty of places to eat and drink in Tideswell, together with a co-op, butcher, baker and an excellent second hand bookstore in a church. We would certainly be happy to return.

Breathtaking!
Aside from the lovely village and perfect location, I have to say that as a seasoned traveller, both home and abroad, I have never found such a well presented, clean, stylish property. Neither have I seen such attention to detail and provision of equipment and thoughtful treats. If I was less thoughtful I would shout to everyone that they must stay here!!! But then I might not be able to get in 🤭

Tideswell TOTS
Excellent Location, within walking distance of 2 bakeries, numerous eateries, the Co-op and a delightful second-hand bookshop. Beautifully clean and all the furnishings were of the highest quality, there was absolutely everything you need. TOTS even has a small but perfectly formed courtyard for you to watch the world go by as you drink your morning coffee. Would revisit in a flash!

Fantastic cottage and location
We loved staying at The Old Toffee Shop. Everything you could possibly need is catered for at the cottage and the quality of furnishing and comfort of the rooms is exceptional. Location is great and there are some lovely restaurants and coffee shop within walking distance. We had sandwiches and cakes for the Cherry Tree just across the square and also had dinner at the Merchant’s Yard which was delicious. Would thoroughly recommend choosing this accommodation as it has everything and with fantastic comfort, design and quality. Wish we could have stayed longer!!

Great Stay
Pics and description are thorough and accurate. For a village experience, TOTS was perfect. Small, but easily adequate for groups up to 4. Completely updated in all respects. Exceptionally clean. Kitchen well stocked with all the essentials. Location is in central Tideswell (a small charming village), accessible to all things "Peak" but also quiet for those nights at "home". Julie was a great communicator and all arrangements were great. No problem recommending.

The lovely TOTS
It is clear as soon as you walk-in that Julie and Nigel have put so much effort into making TOTS a really special cottage. It was perfect for our family of two adults, two children and two dogs. The decor is lovely and calming and the beds are very comfortable. It is equipped with everything you need for a self catering holiday in the Peaks with plenty of amazing walks straight from the door. There are also some good options for eating out locally in Tideswell and we would recommend High Nelly’s for breakfast/brunch, the H&D bistro also does great breakfasts and the takeaway curry they do on a Thursday was very good. We also ate at the Star Inn one evening - it’s a busy little place so best to book and the food was of a really high standard. We would definitely like to visit again - maybe in the winter next time to make use of the log burner! Thoroughly recommend TOTS and Julie was a great host.

Tremendous TOTS
A very well equipped home from home. Very comfortable beds and good location. Even though TOTS is in the centre of town the road becomes quiet in the evening. The outdoor space is great if the weather is good. It gets the sun in the morning for breakfast AND in the evening for the sundowners. We hope we will be back.

Luxurious beautiful idyllic cottage
This idyllic quaint cottage is perfectly beautiful in every way. The styling at TOTS throughout is stunning with lots of attention to detail and care making it warm and cosey. It is furnished at a very high standard with lots of thought gone into decor and colour themes including the added little touches like the blankets, lighting, fire, holiday dog lead, dressing gowns and muddy boot basket and room. We even messaged the owners for paint colours and where the contents were from! On arrival we got 2 bottles of wine and a surprise lemon drizzle cake delivered from the village bakery. You know it’s a good cottage when this happens. The cottage is immaculately clean and comfortable with plenty of space for 6 plus a dog. Tideswell brought us beautiful country walks, pubs and lovely food. We enjoyed a meal at the bulls head and merchants which I would highly recommend. Julie and Nigel made it so attentively enjoyable and were in contact making sure our stay was first clas and relaxing, we can’t thank them enough. I’ve stayed in many cottages but this one I would highly recommend to stay at. I will be returning and recommending to friends and family. Thank you for a wonderful 3 nights seeing the new year in with family.
