Eyam is one of the best-preserved villages in the Peak District National Park, nestled at the foot of Sir William Hill, 800ft above sea level and is surrounded by the most glorious countryside. Historically the village is known as the famous 'plague village', as it went into voluntary quarantine when the plague was imported from London in 1665 and thus prevented the spread of the disease. There are many fine old houses in Eyam, and parts of the village have been kept as they looked several centuries ago, such as Eyam Hall, a beautiful 17th century manor house with delightful gardens, craft shops and tea rooms.

We had a great week here, exploring the village and doing some lovely walks in the surrounding area. It was ideal for us as non drivers as there is a very handy bus stop at the end of the lane. Our only niggle was the amount of cobwebs and spiders. There were cobwebs down the side and underneath most of the furniture. However we would stay again.

00pm on Friday afternoon, a smoke alarm was beeping. We contacted the owners directly and they informed us that they were in Cornwall. After some discussion we managed to reset the smoke alarm. Unfortunately, the alarm started beeping again at 2.45am the following morning. We contacted the owners again to give them an update of the situation. The alarm continued to beep again over the weekend after every 10 hours, which suggested that batteries needed changing. The owners arrived on the Monday afternoon to fix the problem. Our holiday was disrupted all over the weekend, which was disappointing. Other than that, the cottage is situated in a lovely location and suited our needs.
