"The cottage is very clean, comfortable, decorated very tastefully and in an excellent walking area."
We enjoyed using the hot tub and communication with Ellie was very good. The only thing that could be improved is the limited supply of crockery, in particular plates, and utensils. We are keen on cooking good meals on holiday and used the nearby farm shop for supplies. There is a dishwasher in the cottage but unless one runs it 1/3 full, you do a lot of hand washing in between.

"We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Sycamore Cottage to visit nearby Alton Towers for a couple of days."
We normally stay in nearby budget hotels but decided to treat ourselves this visit and so glad we did. Thankfully when looking for a home to stay in, Sycamore Cottage had left the 3 nights we were looking for (as we had already prebooked park tickets). The home is very clean and spacious for 4 people - we even left Alton Towers early on our second day to enjoy more time in the cottage! Absolutely beautiful views of the area. We couldn't find matches to light the fire and contacted the owner, Ellie, and said we wouldn't worry if there weren't any available as quite a drive to a local shop. Ellie very kindly brought some matches and kindling to us so we had an evening of card games with the warm fire. Would definitely return - it's about a 13 minute drive to Alton Towers if you're planning to visit.

The only two things I would say is no toilet roll holder in the bathrooms so you had to either turn around to the back of the toilet or put it on the bin/sink
Also there were no placemats for the dining room table which we found strange
However all in all it was a beautiful setting and cottage and we would stay here again

"We absolutely loved every minute of our stay at Sycamore Cottage."
The property itself is immaculate, very clean and decorated to a good style with some quirky decorative pieces.
There is one main route to the cottage on country lanes from the main road so it is easy to get to, although coming from the Ashbourne end the country lane is very narrow and was a little bit much for me so we always choose the other route past the farm shop, which only added about a minute to the journey and less stressful for me!
The hot tub was great and the views were simply amazing, looking out over the Derbyshire Dales with some lovely sheep grazing in the field next door.
Ellie, the owner, was brilliant. Very easy to communicate with and so helpful. We had one slight issue with the hot tub but she had it sorted for us straight away.
The area is great for all ages. We stayed with our two children (5 and 7) and there was loads to do with them but we could have easily kept ourselves occupied with lots of small villages to explore and loads of walking routes. With the children we took them to Peak Wildlife Park and Splash Landings waterpark, both a little pricey but we spent the whole day there. We also spent the day in Ashbourne, and at Carsington Water, which was great. We went a little further afield and had a trip to the car museum (for the husband!) and another trip for the children at Conkers, which is an outside activity centre. We had hoped to get to Bakewell and Chatsworth House but just ran out of time! All in all, a brilliant week with a very comfortable cottage to come back to. We would happily return. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

"What a beautiful property in such a scenic location!"
The owners were very accommodating and were very responsive to questions we had prior to our stay. They also kept us updated about wifi issues in the area during our visit which we really appreciated.
Thank you so much for the welcome pack. It was such a lovely touch and our daughters loved their treats too!
The cottage was well equipped (especially in the kitchen) but we would have appreciated a brush and pan to clean the floor.
Overall the property was cleaned to a good standard however, there were a few little bits on the floor (particularly in kitchen, upstairs bathroom and dining room) which wasn't ideal for a crawling baby.
We loved spending time in the garden and in the hot tub surrounded by the beautiful countryside. It was lovely seeing the sheep through the kitchen window! We also enjoyed relaxing by the wood burning stove in the evenings and playing the board games.
Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Thank you for your feedback, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay.
There is a dustpan and brush and a Hoover located under the stairs for guest use and we are sorry you did not find these. Unfortunately your stay coincided with our own holiday. We are putting in place a secondary checking system for any time we are away in future, which should eliminate anything similar happening again. Had you notified us of this on arrival we would of course have rectified this.
Thank you once again.

"We’re frequent renters of self catering accommodation and can honestly say that this is best equipped cottage that we’ve ever stayed in."
It had everything that we needed - and more. The photos are a great representation of what you’ll see in the house but what you can’t see are the additional amenities filling the cupboards and drawers - the amazing welcome pack, the fresh flowers, sturdy pans and cooking equipment, the wide range of utensils, quality sharp knives for food prep, sufficient cleaning products for our stay, an air fryer, enough glassware for a party, proper wooden coat hangers, magnifying mirrors in the bathrooms…I could go on and on!
The accommodation was perfect for two couples travelling together and I liked being able to choose the arrangement for the beds. From making my reservation and throughout our stay there was easy contact with the owners, something that I always find reassuring. The area is very peaceful and the views are truly beautiful. Highly recommended.
