FREE WIFI in both cottages
WIFI is available in each cottage - but please bear in mind, although we think it is good, we are in the countryside and our WIFI may not be particularly suitable for some heavy downloading/streaming or the super fast speeds you may get in town or cities .... but we do have great Peak District views!
NB. There are very odd occasions when there may be disruption to the WIFI, and we always try and rectify this as soon as we can working with the provider - however as sometimes these things are out of control, we cannot guarantee that the WIFI will always work .
MOBILE PHONES
Mobile phones reception is quite good with EE - O2 does not appear to always be quite as good.
Please bear in mind that some of the walls in the cottages are 20" thick.
The nearest public phone box is in Leek in the Market Place (should you ever need one!)
