The cottage is immaculately clean and has everything you could need as well as some special touches! The Peaks once again provided us with some fabulous walks and views, topped off with a pint in the local pub.

"The Nook is in a great location close to lots of places of interest and beauty."
It is a beautiful cottage, cosy and comfortable. The owners have thought of everything visitors could want and are friendly should you need any help. The nearby pub does excellent food and provides a friendly welcome. All in all it's a wonderful place to stay.

"A lovely, very well equipped cottage, spotlessly clean and comfortable."
We were delighted to discover the very welcome cream scones and all the extra provisions on arrival - thank you so much Sylvia! The village is in a great location with many places of interest to visit nearby and of course the scenery is beautiful. We enjoyed our stay very much and would highly recommend.

"Very comfortable well appointed cottage."
Owner available for help but not intrusive. Cottage situated in a scenic village with plenty of local walks from the door step. Dined at both village pubs, each with a varied menu and locally sourced food. Visited Chatsworth house., Bakewell (lots of independent shops) and enjoyed walking the Monsal trail. Would definitely go back

"My sister and I had a lovely week at the Nook."
We were greeted by our host on arrival and felt very welcome. The cream tea left for us was much appreciated and very nice. The property was spotless, and contained everything we needed. It was a great location for all the things we wanted to do. Thank you for a great holiday.
-
"This is a wonderful property and we love it!"
Tucked away off the main street, so quiet, and really dark at night. Bliss. Sylvia and David are always on hand if you need assistance. They are excellent hosts and the welcome pack is always gratefully received. Lots to do in the area for all age groups too. Thank you.
-
"A super base for our walking/cycling trip."
The Nook is brilliant - really clean and very comfortable. Lovely welcoming goodies and provisions (thank you so much). Towels and sheets smelt lovely too! Great outdoor space to sit in the sun, useful utility type lobby for leaving shoes and coats etc. We did some long walks and the weather wasn’t great so we were also grateful for the lovely warm bathroom! Welcoming and kind host who lives next door but is not at all intrusive but happy to help if you need it. Thank you for a lovely stay.

All amenities provided and cosy and comfortable. Our second stay in this cottage and would return again. Many thanks

"One of the best cottages we have stayed in."
Very clean, comfortable and well equipped, everything you could need was provided. Owners very friendly and helpful. Great location for walking the Monsal Trail and touring Derbyshire. Lovely food in local pubs, which are only a short walk away.
-
"Provision of welcome cream tea, milk, bread and butter was excellent, as were the thoughtful basics in the kitchen - foil, cling film, salt, sauces etc."
Above and beyond the usual. The only problem we initially had was finding the drive entrance which is fairly obscure and narrow, but once found was no problem. Many thanks to our hosts.
-
"The property is as advertised and we would certainly recommend."
Everything we needed was provided and the welcome pack was appreciated. It’s in a good area for getting about for visiting popular places. We loved Bakewell and we would have done more walking if weather had been drier.
-
"The Nook was a very comfortable place to stay and convenient for places we wanted to visit."
Some fabulous provisions were provided which we did not expect,a lovely welcoming touch.Although we ate mainly at local pubs we could have cooked a full meal in the cottage as all utensils were there.It was warm and cosy and we will certainly recommend to friends and family.
-
"The Nook is situated in the village of Great Longstone, which is well placed for the monsal trail and other lovely walks straight from the door also 2 pubs serving good food are just 2 minutes walk away."
The owners have thought of everything you may need and the extra treats are a lovely touch. The nook is spotlessly clean with very comfy beds plus an undercover seating area which is great for enjoying a drink if the weather is not great, there is a small courtyard with outside seating too for when the weather is warm. We had a lovely stay and felt very at home, Sylvia is just next door if needed but not intrusive, we will definitely go back and would not hesitate in recommending the nook .
-

-
"Spacious accommodation."
Light, bright and clean. Excellent hosts. Good off-road parking. Three good quality pubs (two nearby and one about half a mile away) all of which served excellent food. Highly recommended cottage.

We'll equipped property, with nice welcome surprise of cream tea . So peaceful, that we felt relaxed right from the start. Would highly recommend The Nook. We were sad to leave.
-
"Lovely cottage, well thought out and fully equipped with everything you might need for a week away; including soaps and washing up liquid etc."
(Although, could do with a wash basket to transfer washing to the airer, but this is a miner detail). Loved the extra touch of cake on arrival. Great location, nice and quiet but close to fantastic walks and local attractions. Very friendly and helpful owner too. We'd love to come back at some point!
-

"Excellent venue, would happily use it as a base again, everything was just as advertised and the Chocolate cake was"
-
"What a perfect find!"
Despite it being the first week of February the property was warm and cosy, a real home from home. And who doesn't like a welcome chocolate cake! Highly recommended. The property is well placed for visiting Chatsworth, Bakewell, Thornbridge Hall, and the Crispin pub in the village is a 3 minute walk serving really nice food in a warm and comfortable atmosphere. We would definitely book again.
-
"Sylvia turned out to be the perfect host."
. Lovely surprise to have cake,coffee,and other essentials in the cottage when we arrived. Sylvia was able to advice about local paths to a pub we had booked for one of our meals out , even providing a lantern to light our way . Many thanks for looking after us all . We had a memorable stay for all the right reasons
-
"Enjoyed our stay."
Warm , very clean and well maintained. Owners made us feel welcome. Location was great for local walking and sight seeing Five stars
-
"Our first visit to the Peak District and we certainly picked a good place to stay at the Nook."
Clean, comfortable and well equipped. Welcoming owner was next door if required. Great location for Chatsworth, Monsal trail, Padley Gorge. Two pubs in the village, both serving good food. Would like to explore the Peak District further and would stay at the Nook again.
-
"Lovely cottage we would definitely return"
-
"We found the property to be well equipped and very comfortable, it was very clean."
it was in a good position, within easy driving distance to many places in the area.
-
"A beautiful, spacious and well equipped place to stay."
A thoughtful package of goodies awaiting us on our arrival. This has been the best accommodation we've stayed in. We stayed during the unprecedented 2 day heatwave (39°c) so had to stay safe indoors but with a great choice of dvd's and books provided, we were happy to stay in the cool downstairs or out in the covered patio. We'd highly recommend The Nook if you're looking for a peaceful holiday break
-
"Lovely well equipped cottage with thoughtful extras and in a great location."
Would definitely consider staying at the property again if visiting the Peak District
-
"Fabulous holiday cottage."
Clean, comfortable and modern with all mod cons and fully equipped. Great location and set in a little village with two great pubs. Wonderful friendly hosts. Thank you so much. We hope to return.
-
"What a wonderful hideaway!"
Quiet, cosy, clean and comfortable with its own parking space and yet very close to the small shop and two excellent pubs in the village, with plenty of footpaths and cycling opportunities, including the Monsal trail, nearby. The owners, who live next door, were very welcoming - but not at all intrusive - and provided an exceedingly generous welcome pack. Much appreciated. Thank you! The little, private, courtyard garden and covered veranda are a fabulous addition to the property providing a quiet retreat in which to relax, either in the sun or shade, with plenty of seating and cushions provided. We stayed for a week in March and experienced the full range of weather from warm sunshine to snow. We thoroughly enjoyed soaking up the spring sunshine on the patio but the veranda was far too cold to sit in so I imagine it will be a gloriously cool and dry space to enjoy on a hot, or wet, summer day. We have stayed in many Sykes cottages, over the years, and have never been disappointed but this has definitely been one of the best. Despite making it a rule never to stay in the same place twice, I would love to return to this one! A word of warning for those less agile: there is a short, but very steep, road up to the property and uneven surfaces, through the courtyard garden, to access The Nook.
-
"Lovely property with excellent facilities."
Generous welcome pack provided by the owners.
-
"Lovely holiday retreat, very clean, comfortable and well appointed."
Location ideal for exploring the Peak District and Great Longstone has a convenient village stores and a number of pubs if you don’t feel like cooking. The hosts live in the property next door and are very accessible, if required, but leave you to your devices. Lovely touch from hosts with a welcome pack of bread, milk, tea/coffee, marmalade and chocolate. Would definitely recommend to others and will return to the Nook in the future.
-
"My partner and I had such a lovely welcoming to the Nook at Timbers from Sylvia and David, everything was there to hand when we arrived, with all the ingredients for making our first cup of tea and added to that was a very fine lemon drizzle cake and a lot of other essentials and goodies."
The cottage was extremely clean, very well appointed and really cozy making our stay an enjoyable, relaxing experience.
-
"The Nook at Timbers is ideally situated to explore the Peak District."
Plus such a lovely place to stay! The owners really welcoming even during these difficult times. Will book again!
-
"Sylvia and David were excellent hosts and went out of their way to make sure our stay was memorable."
Thanks for your efforts.
-
"The Nook was perfect for our requirements and had everything we needed."
The owners lived next door and even though we didn't need to bother them for anything it was handy to know they were there if we needed them. Great Longstone is perfectly situated to explore Derbyshire and the Peak District. There were several pubs close by but there were also ample facilities to cook in the accomodation. Highly recommended.
-

Friendly and very helpful owners.

"Very comfortable and spacious."
Loved the courtyard garden. Very convenient for the two excellent pubs in the village, both serving good food.
-
"We had stayed here before, so it was great to be back."
Sylvia and Dave had covered everything - and more besides! The cottage was immaculate, very comfortable, and perfect for our stay, and the many little details were really appreciated. It’s a great place to stay, in a fantastic part of Derbyshire, and we would love to return later this year if we can. I can’t praise our hosts highly enough!

It was so clean and fresh and had everything you would need and the owners left a very generous selection of welcome foods. Would highly recommend it to anyone and would love to stay there again one day. Many thanks.
-
"Immaculate, well-stocked accommodation with a lovely, compact, private garden perfect for relaxing in with a good book and a glass of wine which we did often, even when it rained, as there is an adjoining terrace with a roof."
Sylvia was a great host who provided cake, biscuits, milk and other useful bits and pieces for our stay. She advised us about local walks and drives round the area which we really enjoyed. The village is pretty with two good pubs and is very close to the Monsal Trail. There is so much to do here and we only just saw a few of the highlights but would love to come back and explore further. The Nook is a great base for a holiday and we would highly recommend it.
-
"Amazing cottage in a fabulous location, our 2nd visit and hopefully not our last."
Everything you could need/want and more and Sylvia and Dave are great hosts.

The scenery in the Peaks is wonderful and spoilt for choice with the number of walks.
-
"The Nook was without exception a lovely place to stay, warm, comfortable and it had everything you would want in a holiday cottage."
Great Longstone is a lovely village with many walks available from the cottage and of course it is to be found in a beautiful part of the Peak District. There are two very friendly pubs on the doorstep that offer lovely food and have very friendly staff. The Nook is definitely worth a visit and I would like to thank Sylvia for her welcoming pack and kind hospitality. We will definitely be back.

"The Nook in Great Longstone, Peak District is an excellent holiday cottage."
Very well equipped and furnished and well located as a base to explore the Peak District. There was a nice unexpected welcome of milk, bread, butter and chocolate cake and ample provision of practical basics like toilet roll, washing up liquid etc. Also lots of leaflets and books on places to visit. The village has 2 excellent pubs, with a 3rd an easy 15 minute walk down the road or across the fields to Little Longstone. It's also a short walk from the Monsal trail, and around 3 miles from Bakewell on foot, by bus or by car. A peaceful and relaxing break which we would recommend to friends.
-
"The Nook is located in a quaint little town."
There are 2 lovely pubs within walking distance and the food at both was incredible. We seemed to be in a great location too as it did not take too long to travel to the destinations we wished to visit during our stay. The host Sylvia was lovely. We were shown around the property when we arrived and shown how to use the heating and the remote control lighting. The bread, cake, milk, snacks and a range of hot beverages that were present on arrival was a nice added touch as it saved us having to go groceries shopping after a long drive up from London. I couldn't fault the property or the host, we really enjoyed our stay here and hope to visit again real soon. Saba Ahmadi

The accommodation has been recently furnished and decorated so is extremely clean and well presented. The location is great- close to the Monsal Trail and only 3 miles from Bakewell.

We would totally recommend a holiday there.
-
"The Nook is a spotlessly clean and very comfortable and cosy holiday home with all the facilities you could need."
A perfect retreat after a days walking or sightseeing for a couple or family of 3 or 4. The peaceful village location is perfect for easy access to all areas of the Peak District And Derbyshire Dales. There are miles of walking and cycling trails virtually on the doorstep with the Monsal Trail as stonesthrow away and Castleton and the Derwent and Ladybower reservours just a short drive away. We very much hope to stay in The Nook again when we next visit the area.
-
"The cottage was very clean and modern."
Easy to find in a lovely village. It had parking and the owners very nice and very helpful.
-
"A lovely retreat to return to after walking for miles in this beautiful area."
Lovely big shower and bathroom, comfortable beds. The open plan layout downstairs was spacious and cool when the weather outside was scorching hot. Sylvia greeted us and gave us a tour and had left lots of useful toiletries and essentials, not to mention a luxury chocolate cake! A short stroll takes you to the little village shop and a couple of pubs for an evening meal and a cold beer. The Monsal Trail was a short walk, cycle away and lead to many interesting places if you're up for a steep climb or two. The Monsal Head ice cream wagon was so welcome at the top of the steps. I did hire a bike to cycle with my son - but had to buy a gel saddle cover to get me through the week! Perfect really!

"Cottage just as described if not better Every detail is thought of and extras ..."
Cottage just as described if not better Every detail is thought of and extras included Would not hesitate to recommend this property Thankyou

We had a very enjoyable holiday despite weather being poor. Good food at The Crispin in the village.
-
"Fabulous cottage in a peaceful location but everything almost on the doorstep."
Spent time walking and cycling the Monsal Trail, walking Dovedale and a visit to Hardwick Hall, and it was lovely to come back to the cottage at the end of the day, The Crispin was very friendly and did lovely food. The cottage is a credit to the owners, Sylvia and David who have truly thought of everything. Also thank you so much for the delicious cake and bread :-)
-

"The Nook was an excellent place to stay."

-
"The Nook is quiet & clean, brandnew."
Nice patio-with-a-roof. Everything you need is there, even a washing machine. Welcome with scones and jam. Lots of space, even for four adults. Perfect beds. It's not just a cottage, it's a palace! Price is friendly for what you get!
-
"My husband and I have stayed in many holiday cottages and clearly this cottage we rate as top of the list."
Sylvia and David where close at hand if we had any concerns or queries. We didn't. The cottage was immaculate, ref bathroom,toilets, lounge, kitchen and obviously bedroom with white bed linen and not hideously coloured linen which some cottages use. The cottage is easily accessed via a short lane off the Main Street. There are two pubs close by (5 minute walk) we only used the Crispin Pub which was friendly serving good food. "The Nook" next to the owners house "The Timbers" is an excellent holiday cottage and we would recommend to anyone visiting the area to book early. Derek & Geraldine.
-
"Really great location, comfy accommodation with a super kitchen, warm host and attention to detail."
Would go again.
-
"The cottage was lovely and spotless, probably one of the cleanest I stayed in."

Booking return vist as we speak.
-
"A really beautiful cottage in a beautiful village."
The accommodation was large, warm (we went in a cold March, so this was very important) and comfortable with attention given to every detail. The owners were friendly and happy to help but not at all intrusive. The nearby Monsal trail gives ample opportunity for walking and cycling. We look forward to returning soon.
-
"The cottage was lovely."

GREAT LONGSTONE
Bakewell 3.3 miles.
The pretty Derbyshire village of Great Longstone is situated in a wonderful location in the heart of the Peak District National Park. Great Longstone is nestled in an enviable position, flanked by Longstone Edge, with Bakewell and Chatsworth House close by. The village offers two traditional village pubs, a shop, 18th century stone cottages and a market cross that is situated on the delightful village green. The Monsal Trail runs through the village and provides eight and a half miles of scenic traffic-free walking and cycling, with the spectacular viaduct at nearby Monsal Head and several tunnels along the route to keep the whole family interested. Just down the road lies the picture postcard village of Ashford-in-the-Water, which boasts a medieval Sheepwash Bridge, once a major crossing point over the River Wye for packhorses delivering mail from Derby. The nearby, renowned market town of Bakewell, which can be accessed via the Monsal Trail, offers a variety of shops, restaurants and pubs, together with frequent local farmers' markets. Take a stroll along the river bank to feed the ducks and geese and see the ‘love locks’ on the foot bridge. The spa town of Buxton with its Opera House is also within driving distance. You could also visit the many stately homes including the iconic Chatsworth, Haddon Hall and Hardwick Hall, or take a trip to the World Heritage Site of the Richard Arkwright Mills in Cromford, all of which are within easy reach. With the impressive castle and caverns at Castleton close by, you'll be spoilt for choice at this fantastic location.
