  • "Hi, couldn’t ask for more, exceptionally clean and very tastefully furnished."

    The information sent through was very useful. We found being in the centre of Ashbourne very convenient and the parking was a bonus. Takeaway from Chinese underneath was delicious. Would definitely recommend and look forward to visiting again. Thank you Pauline and Dougie

  • "Lovely and clean and fantastic position with great parking and well kitted out Could have done with coat hooks to hang coats and one in bathroom for robes."

    Some of paintwork in bathroom showing small signs of use (could be expected late in season). Bathroom door lock was broken and bathroom doors didn’t close properly. Very clean, cosy and comfortable throughout. Had a great stay

    Spotlessly clean. In an ideal location with pubs and restaurants a short walk away. A few extra cups and more cutlery would mean you could make better use of the dishwasher.

    The apartment was really comfortable and in a great location - in the centre of Ashbourne with easy access to all the sights of the Peak District. It was exactly as described on the site and if we return to the area we would look to book this apartment again.

    Thanks so much for the lovely review Penelope! Best wishes, Jane. Property Owner

  • "This is a really nice apartment - a great location right in the centre of Ashbourne with an easy to use parking space."

    It's been well designed with good quality furnishings throughout. It was spotlessly clean on arrival, and the welcome pack we were e-mailed beforehand was comprehensive and professional - even including a YouTube video of how to find Derbyshire House. A great stay and very impressed.

    Hi Helen, thanks so much the lovely review.! I am glad you like our video of directions. We've not had a single guest struggle to find Derbyshire House yet, so it was well worth doing! That's particularly reassuring for weekend arrivals, coming to us later on Friday evenings. Staying in Ashbourne is great, but as you found, being able to quickly and easily find the accommodation, and then be able to go out and about sightseeing and have the reassurance of a car parking space at all times when you come back, is a very useful USP for us! Many thanks, Jane Property Owner

  • "The Property was very well presented and good quality."

    The drawback was the very steep staircase to the flat which is situated on the top floor, which in Skye Cottages defence we were warned about. The heating was very difficult to workout and on occasions we were very cold, we never got the towel rail to work during our 4 night stay. The main negative to the property was the traffic noise which was relentless, the road outside is a main run for lorries and fairly heavy traffic. Also the constant bleeping of the pedestrian crossing was very annoying. The property desperately needs double glazing! Even as a good sleeper I had issues.

    Hi Garry, Many thanks for the feedback. We've had new acoustic glazing installed in the bedroom of Manifold Dale this week and it's worked very well, without affecting the lovely view guests enjoy across the Market Square. We've not had an issue with the towel rail before and we've double checked the setting. It seems fine, but I will keep an eye on that. Best wishes, Jane Property Owner

    Comfortable, relaxing place to stay , very close to many peak district towns. Slightly steep stairs to gain access to apartment but we'll worth it.

  • "Very much enjoyed our stay."

    The apartment was scrupulously clean, which was reassuring during covid times. There was a thoughtful welcome gift in the form of wine and chocolates which after a dreadful journey up the M5 and M6 was very much welcomed on arrival. Everything is just as pictured with all necessities provided, excepting a washing machine. The weather during our stay was muggy and the aircon provided was essential and made things comfortable as the flat doesn't have much in the way of natural ventilation. There are quite a few stairs but this is clearly shown in the pictures and they are not difficult or awkward to climb. Ideally situated within a stone's throw of some nice cafes and pubs. I would thoroughly recommend this lovely apartment.

    Lively town, with an excellent butchers by the main carpark. Well equipped for self catering. Minor niggle - no spare kitchen bin liner and I could not work out how to get the towel rail to come on. The lobby entrance to Manifold Dale (illuminated by the housekeeping interior window) would be a more useful space if coat hooks were on the wall.

About the location

ASHBOURNE

Matlock 15.7 miles; Bakewell 16.6 miles; Chatsworth 20.4 miles.

Lying at the southern end of the Peak District, Ashbourne is a perfect example of an English market town - market place with stalls, eccentric street plan, narrow cobbled alleys, coaching inns and almshouses. In its heyday in the 18th-century, the town was a fashionable social centre, and many fine Georgian buildings remain from this period. Today the town still has much to offer in terms of restaurants and inns and is regarded as something of a haven for antique hunters - but don’t expect a bargain! For those who prefer more outdoor pursuits, the Dove and Manifold Valleys are close by and for thrill seekers Alton Towers with its exciting collecting of rides and attractions is just a short drive away.
