Lay My Hat

Hello we're just setting out on the road with our first place...in the Peak District. We have read with interest the discussions about agencies, particularly the advantages of smaller local agencies to handle bookings, advertise etc. I wonder if anyone can recommend (or warn me off!) smaller agencies in the Derbyshire area as I haven't come across any so far and we have fallen back on researching the larger players like cottages.com...
Thanks Rob
