What our customers say about their holidays

  A lovely stay that could do with a few tweaks - the location is idyllic, quiet, and sweet.

  The house has been finished to a high standard - both modern and traditional with some unique quirks and is very pretty. However, facilities let this one down a little and unfortunately we wouldn't return. Dogs having to be kept on ground floor only means the use of the two further floors is quite ruined unless you want to leave your furry friends alone for the majority of your stay. But there isn't a sofa in front of the fire and tv - just two seats meaning cuddling up with your human other half isn't possible either. Taking the dogs out for a night-time toilet will prove difficult if their recall isn't great, as the front garden has no enclosure and leaks onto the main road. Whilst the kitchen is newly refurbished, small tweaks such as the tap barely reaching the middle of the sink causes a water explosion on the side, but no drain rack, kitchen roll, or cloth is provided to account for this. There is a dishwasher - but only one singular tablet is left (and this isn't mentioned) But washing up by hand isn't suitable either, as you're left with one mini-sponge only and no rack to dry your washing. Oven and tray is provided, but again only one singular line of foil is left. No hand sanitiser, wash, or spray to leave the cottage clean and fresh before our departure. We did feed this back directly to the owner with no response unfortunately. Dog friendly? possibly not, but perhaps dog-accepting would be better suited. Overall - it IS a lovely stay. I would recommend, but would note the above, but wouldn't return myself.

  What can I say, what a beautiful cottage ideal for couples wanting to be together.

  The attention to detail and finish is exceptional-the log burner was well used on our stay, the bath was fabulous, bed was super comfy and so cosy-loved the TV area on the 3rd floor. When I arrived there was milk, flowers and other essentials for us and the owner introduced himself and checked everything was ok-saw him again during our stay. My partner couldn't be there all week due to work but I felt safe was extremely comfortable and had the most relaxing week. Everything is on your doorstep, incredible scenery, walks and very friendly people. We loved it and will be back to stay again later in the year-thank you so much-your cottage is beautiful you couldn't have done anything better.

  Very well appointed cottage with good quality fixtures and fittings, beautifully renovated by the owner.

  Good location for walking, local amenities with good pubs and shops within walking distance/ a short drive. Ideal accommodation for 2 people and on site parking a real bonus. Owner came to check with us on first morning which was welcome. We gave 4 stars as couldn't contact the owner on email provided by Sykes which was frustrating as the shower didn't work and did not discover this until later on our first day. The bath is lovely but too deep for someone with bad knees. We saw the owner again as we were leaving and he hadn't received our emails, so the email address needs to be corrected to avoid future problems. Would definitely stay again.

  This was our second visit to this outstandingly beautiful cottage in every way and has now become our favourite place-we love it.

  The cottage is in a beautiful part of Derbyshire with fantastic walks, scenery and facilities on your doorstep. The cottage itself is immaculate and beautifully designed it has everything you need and more. Again we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, went out and about and came back to this gems of pure relaxation. The owner are so friendly and helpful, they checked we had everything we needed and nothing was too much trouble. Your attention to detail and little extras you provided are so thoughtful and kind-thank you. You just have this so right!! We will be returning for another fantastic visit as soon as we can. Thank you both so much.

  Cooking any basic meals proved very difficult in this cottage.

  Though it is immaculately clean , basic items particularly saucepans are too large to make any simple sauces or even boil a couple of eggs. The "smallest " saucepan has flaking non stick . The owner did not offer any replacement pans when this was pointed out. If you are happy just to eat toast you will be ok. The property description does not state ' initial log supply only ' but that is all you get unless you complain. Don't complain via the email address on the paper confirmation sent by Sykes - it is an address that they do not read. The above sounds trivial but spoilt our holiday.
