Little Bent cottage

I you want to be out and about every day in beautiful scenery and then have an awesome base to relax then look no further. Stunning views out of every window and 2 large secure paddocks that you can let your 4 legged friend enjoy with no fear of them getting out. The hardest thing is convincing the dog to come inside and join you in the evening.

Fab 50th away

We all loved the property just the right size with everything that we needed. Attention to detail, lots of thought gone into making it completely dog friendly and secure, just gutted the weather only permitted us one dog field visit! We thoroughly enjoyed our week and will happily be visiting again as soon as possible. Nicky

Cosy and comfortable

This was a wonderful cottage to stay on over Christmas. So cosy and comfortable. It’s actually better than the pictures look! Very dog friendly - mesh at the bottom of gates, dog towels, poo bags etc so our dog enjoyed lots of freedom. The two secure fields are a real bonus - for us and the dog to get fresh air and with beautiful views.

Super place for families of all ages including dogs.

The house is so comfortable and clean, a rural location that we wanted but near enough to shops for food , petrol etc. One of the best parts for us was the secure outside space for the dogs, they had an amazing time charging around outside ! Great walks nearby or many places of interest a shortish drive away. A very welcome homemade cake, milk and eggs on arrival, not forgetting the doggy biscuits. A Really good family bathroom, comfortable bedrooms, a lovely kitchen and lounge area , a great place to stay and enjoy family/friend time together. Would def stay again in the future.

cannot ask for a better location. If you are looking for peace and quiet you will be ok here. Rural but only 5 mins from Leek which has plenty of shops.. 25 minutes to Alton Towers. The cottage was spotless. The hosts were very polite and helpful. I only wish we could have stayed longer. If we get the chance will definitely stay there again.

Relaxing weekend break

Lovely cottage for a nice relaxed weekend with the girls, we throughly enjoyed it. Was set in a beautiful location and very safe my dogs to roam free with enclosed fencing made me feel at ease. Not to far from the shops and we visited a little zoo which was a 7 min drive, we also eat at a lovely restaurant down the road. Hopefully will come visit again

Perfection

We stayed for 3 nights. The cottage and the surroundings were absolutely perfect. The cottage had everything we needed and more (delicious cake and other welcome gifts). Our little dog loved the enclosed garden and the secure fields to run around. This is the perfect place to relax and get some peace away from every day life! We are already thinking about when we can go back.

Fantastic homely cottage

We’ve been to little Bent cottage before and loved it and this second visit didn’t disappoint us. It’s a great place for dogs with having the two securely fenced fields attached. The owners are very attentive if you have any problems or queries. Lovely little personal touches like eggs milk and cake on arrival. The location is just stunning with fantastic views and lots of lovely walks nearby. We would definitely recommend and can’t wait to return.
