"Lovely comfy cosy cottage, actually nicer and more spacious than the pictures suggest."
All spotless and the kitchen extremely well equipped with good quality equipment. Great location for walking - we walked from the door on one of our days and a short drive will bring you to many great options.
Owners were friendly and very responsive when we had a small unforeseeable problem during our stay (thank you).
If Wi-Fi is very important for you, then I suspect it may always be patchy due to issues outside of the owners’ control. Also, it wasn’t obvious to us in advance that the garden terrace is only accessed from the single bedroom as it’s on a higher level. Not a problem for us though.

"Fabulous cottage."
The best equipped kitchen we have stayed in, which is many. Lovely patio with smashing views. Couldn’t fault the accommodation and the hosts who lived on the farm were helpful & friendly. Added bonus was the new micro brewery within a short walking distance ,which is open at weekends. Well worth a visit. Can recommend a visit to Carsington Water 20 minutes away. We would definitely visit Aunt Jane’s cottage again.

"Charming cottage in a beautiful hamlet."
Simply furnished and very well equipped. Conveniently situated for local attractions - Dovedale, Chatsworth , Haddon Hall etc
Cottage was spotlessly clean for arrival with a thoughtful welcome back of tea, coffee and biscuits - ample parking right outside the front door
Owners live on site and checked in with us to ensure everything was OK without being intrusive
Overall a lovely place to stay and would happily revisit

"Two super cottages for a family get-together."
They worked perfectly for us, and were within easy reach of some local areas of interest. The weather wasn't great, but as we wanted to spend time as a family we enjoyed staying in, and made full use of what the cottages had to offer. Friendly owners, and everything we needed, even the addition of a well-kitted out utility area with washing machine, tumble drier and clothes racks. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The bedrooms were so cosy and really comfy beds. The setting was perfect and tranquil.

"This is an excellent cottage, lovely hosts, excellent accommodation, well equipped, lovely welcome, very comfortable."
Everything you could want or need. Also available are a small selection of books, puzzles and games. Ideal for a couple or with one child, however next door is a bigger property. The cottage is spacious with parking outside. The countryside around is wonderful and picturesque. This cottage is ideally situated for walkers and if you don’t walk but like to visit places, then this is the cottage for you. It’s situation is in the middle of the countryside, it’s peaceful, but only a mile or so from the main road where within 10 - 15 minutes drive you can be in Buxton, Bakewell, Matlock and Matlock Bath. Also worth a visit is Ashbourne and the wonderful Carsington Water and Cromford and the Cromford Canal. Also worth a visit is Chatsworth House. This is a property that we will definitely return to.

We visited Bolsover Castle,lots of heritage industrial sites in and around Cromford and Matlock - Lumsdale Valley, Cromford Canal; Tissington, Monsal Trail and High Top, the fantastic High Peak Bookshop and cafe, Fenny Bentley Coach and Horses, Hurdlow Royal Oak, Wirksworth "Mistral", Buxton and the Museum plus the shops at Ashbourne. All a bit cultural and with some costs involved but walking along the many tracks and lanes to find the various archaeological sites was free, the weather fantastic, and the countryside looked pristine - great for anyone with interests in drawing, painting or photography - I was very happy on these outings! The cottage was not too easy to find at Aldwark but was comfortable, and had everything we needed including wifi (better than at home), and the little terrace at the back was a good place to eat!
