• "1 Barley cottage is one of the best holiday cottages we have ever stayed in."

  The standard of cleanliness and comfort and style are outstanding. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided and the property is extremely dog friendly. Location is ideal for exploring this area of the Peak District and we would certainly return and 100% recommend to anyone holidaying in this area.

• "We absolutely LOVE Barley Cottage!"

  It has everything you need for a relaxing, comfortable stay! The kitchen is very well stocked and the lounge is so cosy! We also love the views from the garden and the summer house at the top. Definitely coming back again!

• "We had a fabulous time at Barley Cottages."

  Amazing views and pretty much every detail considered by the owner. The kitchen is soo well equipped with everything you need to cater for a group of 6 plus a dog! The location is perfect for getting out on immediate walking trials, or a little mooch into town. The weather was pretty dismal for our stay though, so no long hikes as intended, but it was magical watching thunder and lightning storms across the valley from the summer house. The garden is spectacular and a lot of work must have gone into it. I would say the garden isn’t suitable to let a small dog off lead in my opinion and my only feedback would be to possibly point this out in the booking details. We would love to stay again.

  We are happy you enjoyed your stay and the facilities offered as we wish you have every comfort available. In addition we are pet friendly we supply everything you might need for your beloved pet however we are unable and or cannot guarantee that the garden is pet secure because even the most determined pet will work out a way to escape.

• "Absolutely beautiful property, homely and decorated to a high spec with lots of lovely features."

  Views from the garden, especially in the mornings were inspiring. Plenty of room, lots of places to either be together or sperate around the house. Ideally situated for visiting Matlock and areas around as well as lots of walking opportunities. Many a pub with excellent food.

• "A lovely cottage with a real wow factor."

  All the rooms are immaculate and designed with a contemporary finish. Everything we needed was available, making our stay very relaxing and comfortable. The garden is amazing with fantastic views (we were blessed to the first proper week of sunshine this year! Which meant lovely evenings admiring the Derbyshire countryside). The garden is also very secure for a dog but those with limited mobility would struggle. Thank you for a lovely stay, we would definitely recommend.

  Thank you Kevin, we are glad you enjoyed the cottage and that the weather enhanced your stay and you were perfect guests. Property Owner

• "This is probably the best cottage we have stayed in."

  It is immaculately decorated with so much attention to small details such as the torches readily available and always charged conveniently placed on the walls, the lights which come on automatically in the dark and the abundance of high quality kitchen equipment. I could go on and on. The furniture is top quality, the settees and beds all comfortable. It is ultra doggy friendly, feeding bowls, toys, blankets, treats, everything has been thought of. The garden is lovely- you get lots of exercise going up and down the steps! The views at the top are superb, excellent place to sit and have a cuppa or glass of wine. I cannot rate this cottage too high, we would love to go back.

  Thank you Wendy for taking the time to write a detailed review and also for being excellent guests and hopefully see you again in the not to distant future. Property Owner

• "A lovely cottage beautifully furnished throughout."

  Ideally situated with plenty of walks on the doorstep including a 20 minute stroll into Matlock. Our two dogs Sandy and Teddy really enjoyed playing and lazing in the sun in the enclosed garden and we enjoyed the added bonus of the summerhouse and wonderful views. Off road parking provided the icing on the cake!

  Lovely, comfy sofas, the kitchen had everything we needed and the beds were comfy too. Fabulous views from the bedrooms and garden. Sunny weather meant we could make full use of the seating areas in the garden and the summer house too! We’ve already booked to return later this year! Loved it!

  Good location. The cottage is well equipped, warm and comfortable, especially with the fabric sofas. We love the decor. The view from the garden is wonderful and had the weather been better we would have eaten out there in one of the seating areas. Excellent.

  So warm and comfortable and really well kitted out with quality items. Great location walkable into Matlock. The outdoor space we couldn't use as the weather wasn't good enough, but would be fab in the summer.

• "Lovely, clean, well equipped house decorated very tastefully with all the thoughtful touches that make the property top notch and gorgeous views an scenery thrown in."

  Loved that there were clean towels, blankets and bowls for the doggy guests in case you had forgotten anything, and treats and poo bags! Kitchen in particular equipped to very high standard and the supply of tea coffee and washing up items much appreciated. The light sensors were very welcome to make you feel safe and secure going up and down stairs. Maps and local guides also supplied along with board games to entertain us in the evenings. A real home from home (without the clutter) where you could actually have a rest. Pubs within in walking distance.

  Particularly liked the night lights on the stairwells and the views from the rear garden over the hills. Two minor comments, we like to use large bath towels and pint sized glasses to consume 'refreshments'.

  Thank you Bill, Apologies for the lack of pint glasses, but on the towels we supply two plus there are additional towels for you to use in the bathroom cupboards if required, thank you for your review. Property Owner

  Stylish and beautifully decorated. The owners have gone out of their way to think about all those little things that make a holiday cottage home from home. The views from the top of the garden are amazing and the cottage is located close to The Heights of Abraham, Chatsworth House and Bakewell. Crich Tramway Musuem is well worth a visit.

• "We had a fabulous stay at Barley cottage- I don’t think the photos do it justice!"

  It’s stylish and immaculate, with really good quality fixtures and fittings and a well kitted out kitchen. I was a bit apprehensive when I booked as I couldn’t find any reviews but this is clearly because the place is brand new. There are beautiful walks on your doorstep and lots to do nearby. The terrace has a wonderful view I could have sat there all day. This cottage has lots of stairs that are quite steep, both inside and outside so please be aware that if anyone is a bit unsteady on their feet this might be a bit difficult for them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone else and hope to be back again soon.Thank you!
