We had a wonderful stay at Sawyers Cottage and would love to return with the whole family and book all 4 cottages. Stunning location with beautiful views all round. The hot tub was a real treat and helped us relax after lots of walking. The heating was just right for the time of year, and it was cosy and comfortable in every room.

The week the whole family shared with our stay at the stunning Sawyers Cottage was truly delightful, from our initial sighting upon arrival to the magnificent surroundings and ancient mine workings, to the extremely well presented accommodation, it all lived up to and surpassed all our expectations. The grand children took full advantage of the hot tub and the local walks, scenery and serenity were much appreciated by the elder members of the party. A truly brilliant stay was had by all, which made it very hard to leave, but I am sure we will be back.

We really enjoyed our stay, the location is absolutely amazing. The cottage was very cosy and despite being joined to others, was still private. We will definitely be recommending to everyone and will definitely be booking again.

Thank you for another amazing stay. Haven't stayed in Sawyers since the late 90s (the size of Pelton Wheel and No.4 have been more suitable over the years) but coming back here, despite the numerous changes and improvements in the last 25 years, it still felt like coming home again. The housekeeping was, as ever, top notch and it was good to catch up with Mr Johnson and throw sticks for Zulu. So thank you again. I look froward to booking again for next year!
