• "We really enjoyed our stay at Slade Tops."

  The owners were very friendly and made us feel most welcome. The property is well equipped and comfortable with a log burner for cosy evenings. Having an on site EV charger was a real bonus. Ilam Park and Dovedale are within easy walking distance along the footpaths from the door. I would definitely recommend this property for a peaceful holiday.

• "Great location for a quiet few days."

  Cottage is has everything needed. Description doesnt mention there is an under counter fridge and a counter top freezer in the property. Not very big but enough to store a few days worth of food. Only thing that was a little disappointing was the water pressure from the shower, its very slow. A simple water pump would solve the issue.

• "Wonderful greeting with wine and cake a real treat after a long drive."

  Directions from Ashbourne would have made our arrival less challenging as we were tired and forgot the warning about taking the Ilam turning. Arrived in Ilam but no signal for phoning the owners and no one we spoke to in the village had a clue as to where we wanted to go.Directions for walks from the property would have been appreciated as we didn't want to get lost. The electric charger was wonderful as we are yet to get used to the electric car but we kept a check on the usage and were able to pay for the electricity. A sharp knife in the kitchen would have been nice but the appliances made life easy.

  And I mean everything. Everything from a lemon zester to a washing machine to Netflix. And the location is just beautiful. From the drive up we knew it was special being right in the middle of rolling hills. From the window in the cottage we could see the new lambs running around. Perfect for walkers with public footpaths right from the front door. Behind the cottage is a footpath that will take you to Ilam Hall and on to Dovedale and Thorpe Cloud. And what a lovely, cosy place to return to after a good gruelling walk. A big thank you to Julie. So friendly and welcoming. Thanks for the fizz and the cake. Delicious!

  There was a decorated Xmas tree to greet us on our arrival, also delicious Victoria sponge cake and Prosecco. Very much appreciated Julie, thank you! The cottage was extremely clean and comfortable and the log fire was an added bonus. The kitchen was well equipped, with everything needed to cook a Christmas dinner. Lovely walks right on the doorstep if you don’t wish to venture far. Our German Shepherd Rane absolutely loved it, she was particularly interested in the sheep that roam around having never encountered one before. I would highly recommend this cottage, the owners are so friendly and helpful. The only problem for us was access into the property. My husband is disabled and struggled with getting in and out , partly my fault as I should have done a bit more research before booking.

  Unfortunately the weather was against us, but you must be prepared for that if you book mid November. Only negative observation, as against a criticism, was that user manuals for equipment would have been helpful. Apart from one instance where help was needed, managed anyway.

  The cottage was just what we needed after spending each day out hiking with our Border Collie, with all the facilities we needed for a relaxing stay. We thought that both the bed and sofa were very comfortable, and all utilities were easy to use. Julie and John were easily contactable had we needed anything, but there was no need. Set in some gorgeous countryside, the cottage is relatively remote but this only added to the tranquility of our stay and was a welcome break from busy town life. The welcome package of a very nice homemade cake and fizz went down very well after several hours of driving and we’ll look forward to booking again in the future. Thanks both!

  However I am very disappointed in Sykes and won’t use or recommend them as they charged me August prices when my original holiday was booked for May, I didn’t want to go in August, it was COVID there fore I believe that they should have kept the price I originally wanted. I spent pounds phoning to try and get the cottage as early as COVID would allow and to talk about the money issue but could never get through. COVID should not have been an excuse for the appalling customer service access.
