• "A lovely cosy & peaceful cottage with glorious views."

  Well equipped and very comfortable. Although in quiet, rural location it is very near some great places for example; Wirksworth, Matlock, the Ecclesbourne Railway & Crich Tramway Museum. A fantastic getaway!

• "Had lovely few days stay cottage nice and cosy with great views and three horses looking over the fence."

  Just be aware the garden is not enclosed if taking your pooch. Couple of pubs close by The bear we had to drive to Malt Shovel which is within walking distance. I would definitely recommend a stay here and we hope to return next year.

• "The cottage was fabulous."

  It had everything just like home. Could not fault it. The added bonus every morning opening the curtains to see the beautiful view and the three houses looking over the fence.

• "Such a cosy little cottage in a very pretty part of the country."

  Lots of little 'extras' provided by the property owner, such as cleaning products, bin bags, milk, toilet rolls, tea towels, kitchen roll; so need to pack all the usual self-catering requirements you would need. We were also left a very welcome bottle of wine along with some 'doggy' treats for our retriever Mabel - very kind. The wine came in very handy to celebrate England win their Euros 2024 football semi-final against the Netherlands....which we watched in the cosy sitting room on a very comfortable sofa. We would definitely book this property again!

• "Lovely cosy cottage with beautiful views of the open countryside."

  Everything you need is provided and the owner lives on site if you need anything. We were able to come and go as we wished without being disturbed. Great place for taking your dog on holiday and plenty of walking options and a dog friendly pub nearby. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. :-)

• "Generally a very nice cottage in an ideal location."

  Fabulous views, friendly & helpful owner. Excellent (very) local eggs! Some small 'refreshing' of the cottage is probably due before the new season to make it perfect. Sykes listing needs some updating, specifically the directions refer to a phone box which is no longer there and the cottage didn't have a DVD as listed.

• "One of the most comfortable cottages we have stayed in."

  If you’re taking your 4 legged friend then make sure you take bowls and beds as none are provided. When contacting the owner for key pick up make sure to get directions as quite difficult to find. Good base for the surrounding area with Matlock 15 minutes away and Chatsworth half an hour. Would book again.

• "Lovely location, beautiful views, perfect for our dog to sit in the garden and watch the horses and cows."

  Only addition would be a little more cupboard space, we are true self-catering guests and not a great deal of space for our store-cupboard food. Would recommend this cottage, overall a lovely stay.

• "Lovely, comfortable, quiet accommodation."

  Owners next door... there if needed but otherwise unobtrusive. Only minuses Narrow parking, steps to front door access and shower requires stepping into a high sided bath. So accommodation, may present problems for persons physically challenged. Otherwise, a superb place that I really hope I will be able to return to in the future.

• "My dog, Millie and I had such a lovely peaceful stay!"

  I booked this last minute and it was very quick and easy. The hosts are very friendly and accommodating and I had a query before booking which was answered in no time at all. The garden was secure and a great size so my dog really enjoyed it! My dog is nervous and there is a free roaming sheep dog but we only saw her/him once and we were able to close the gate to the garden so this really wasn’t an issue. There are chickens in view too but again, these were fenced away so Millie soon got bored of trying. We had some lovely winter walks around the local area and had relaxing evenings at the cottage watching TV and reading. The only issue was a dripping/tapping noise on the last night when it was raining so I barely got any sleep! Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed it and I would recommend for those who are wanting a basic but comforting and cosy stay.

  We received a lovely warm welcome from the owners on arriving. The barn was spotlessly clean, warm, comfortable and just like home from home. The scenery from the window was just amazing and so was the peace and quiet, we enjoyed lots of walks around the area. We visited Chatsworth House for the Christmas event, which was only 12 miles away. The house and gardens were fabulous and well worth a visit. We also visited Cromford Mill and Wirksworth. Both Chatsworth and Cromford were dog friendly. We would not hesitate to stay at Wigwell Barn again and our dog enjoyed it too.

  Delightful, tasteful decor and furnishings - and really well and thoughtfully equipped. Felt at home immediately.. The agency photos simply don't do it justice! The views across the valley, from the lounge and garden are truly stunning. You feel you're away from it all, yet the wonderful historic town of Whitworth, with a good selection of shops and eating places, is is only a few minutes drive away. Loads of fabulous places to visit, under a half hour drive away. (And it is genuinely dog friendly!) Can't wait to return!
