Robin’s nest is an excellent cottage for a short break.
Robin’s nest is an excellent cottage for a short break. The location is on a working farm with horses, cattle, sheep, dogs and cats. It is very quiet but a short walk of approximately 20 minutes into the centre of Cromford. We can recommend the Boat Inn for meals. The cottage is clean and comfortable and in a very quiet location. The bed was comfortable and the shower was hot. The kitchen was well equipped with microwave, cooker, toaster, dishwasher, and kettle. There was a lovely sitting out area, but we didn’t use it because it was cold when we visited in January. It is a good spot if you like walking holidays.
