    Our host welcomed us and showed us to our room which was spacious and comfortable with lovely views. It had everything we needed and more. We followed a recommendation where to eat and it was great. The bed was comfortable and everywhere was immaculate. Breakfast was brilliant and Carole, the host, was bubbly, extremely warm and friendly. It's set in a beautiful location and we went on one of the walks in the information pack and throughly enjoyed it. Being able to keep the car on the Waltzing Weasels' car park was extremely helpful as well. We would definitely go back and highly recommend a stay here.

    I've just had a lovely 3 night break here and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The views from the garden and breakfast room are stunning. I use public transport so the location was doubly perfect - right on the Sett Valley Trail and a couple of minutes' walk from the bus stop to the station. From the Sett Valley Trail I could get to New Mills and Hayfield with ease and was able to access Lantern Pike, the Pennine Way and Kimber Scout. The breakfast was lovely and my room was clean, comfortable and cosy. Best of all, the hospitality received by Carol and the team was top notch - especially from Smudge the cat :) Some reviews mention things like water pressure and the road but that comes with the A+ location and neither were a big problem for me. Highly recommend.

    The only down side was the shower.It had very low water pressure and tepid water although we did let it run for 2 minutes as advised by previous users.Our two daughters made the same comment,they stayed in another room.

    Everything about the accommodation was excellent for: Room decor Room size Quietness and comfort Friendliness of the staff Cooked breakfast Fantastic location with stunning views and lovely little private garden.

    I was convinced that the breathtaking scenery was going to be the highlight of our stay, but how wrong I was. The Waltzing Weasel was a pure delight, the right mix of history in the bucket loads and the modern facilities. you could have asked for more. large comfortable warm rooms with great views. the breakfast was delicious and set us up for the day exploring. As for Carol (owner) she was the star of the show! knowledgeable, helpful and very friendly and really makes the your stay a home from home. cannot wait to visit again.

    Room 8. Bathroom light above the sink is broken (not a good look) Hairdryer is out of the ark and looks extremely dated. It does work though! Very small white tv which we actually didn’t watch at all (as we brought our iPad to watch Netflix one evening). It’s in an awkward place on the wall and and is too small to watch,say, a movie imo

    Carol is very chatty and friendly with good local knowledge Location and views are stunning and within short driving distance to Castleton, New Mills etc Room 8 is comfortable Breakfasts are full English and very generous Easy walk to the village for food. We ate at Colloseo the local Italian both nights which Carol recommended. It was very good. Nice touches with water, mints, tea and coffee in our room. Much appreciated. Copious hot water and clean towels. Packed lunches available to order if you would like one.

    Great location if planning to do the High Peaks. Carol is a great host - very friendly and very helpful. So great to see fried bread on the breakfast menu, it seems to be becoming a forgotten part - and breakfast was very generous.

    This is an exceptional establishment in every respect. The room was great, the breakfast was absolutely superb and amenities and presentation throughout were excellent. This is a really pleasant and easy place to stay, with stunning surroundings and I'd strongly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the area whether alone or as part of a group. Most of all, the staff are really lovely and helpful. Chatting with Carol was a delight.
