• "The property was exactly as described and the owner was very helpful from initial booking."

  The location is remote however clear directions were provided. The owners made the home welcoming with lots of thoughtful touches. The main parts to note were the beds were very comfortable and the shower was modern and powerful. The accommodation is larger than the photographs appear but lots of amenities. The only negative was the WiFi wasn’t great however that’s to be expected in a remote location. Overall a great stay at a reasonable price!

  It was well equipped throughout the house, Lots of entertainment, games, dvd’s etc. A lovely welcome gift of Prosecco and home baked cakes from Jo the host and a disposable bbq. Very comfortable beds and lots of seating in the living room. Perfect location for visiting all of the Peak District. Would definitely recommend and will definitely return for another stay.

  We had a fantastic stay, the cottage has everything you need and more. The owners are lovely and made us feel very welcome, thank you again for the prosecco and strawberry tarts. It's clean, it's cosy, the beds are very comfortable. We didn't want to leave and the kids are already asking to go back.

• "The cottage was lovely."

  A peaceful, beautiful setting and close to various places - 20min to Matlock Bath, 30min to Alton Towers. It was exceptionally clean and the owner had provided all the essentials - dishwasher tablets, kitchen roll, washing up liquid etc. She had also, very kindly left a bottle of prosecco and home made cake - a lovely touch. Good blackout curtains in bedrooms, so great for kids. Upstairs double could however do with a floor to ceiling mirror on the wall. Highly recommend the The Cock Inn at Mugginton. 5 min drive, food excellent and lovely restaurant with reasonable prices. Only slight negative is the fact there is only one main bathroom (shower) which is upstairs and as far away as it could be from downstairs bedroom. Ok if staying with close family, but may be an issue if staying as a group of friends. With a re-jig, the cloakroom toilet and under stairs could be made into a small shower room, which would make the cottage more appealing. I would definitely stay again if requiring accommodation in the area.

• "Woodlands Farm Cottage is one of the best places we have stayed."

  It was warm, comfortable and very well equipped. Jo, the owner, was not intrusive, she sent e mails to check we were satisfied with the property and we had everything we needed which we were and did. The bed we used was very comfortable ( from a choice of three) Excellent amount of cups,plates etc. The heating system was easy to adjust to our needs ( instructions provided in welcome pack). The wood burner was a welcome adjunct for the colder evenings (cheapest logs in garage in Ashbourne) Altogether a very nice and relaxing 2 week stay.

  It was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. The facilities had been chosen with care.

  The house was perfect. We loved the fact that there were 3 large sofas in the huge living room so that all 6 of us could spread out. Not that we were inside much as the garden and its views were wonderful- and again with plenty of seating for 6 people. The hosts were wonderful- extremely helpful and we were touched by the little details such as the homemade scones, jam and cream , the bottle of Prosecco and the flowers. We will definitely be back and have recommended it to our friends and family.

  An easier solution would have been welcome. Once inside the welcome pack of Prosecco, cakes, bread, milk all very much appreciated as was the Happy birthday banner and the Fresh Flowers. Well equipped kitchen including a chair for a youngster, tea bags, coffee, washing up liquid etc. A Cheese knife and more pint glasses would help as would a washing machine, particularly if staying for a week. Very comfortable lounge with a large log burner. Great supply of games and DVD’s as well as a large TV. The downstairs bedroom would benefit from a wardrobe, it’s designed for two adults but nowhere to hang clothes. Maybe a wardrobe in place of the bookshelf. A working radiator would have been nice, the electric heater was ok but not very effective. The upstairs bedrooms were very nice with comfortable beds, great views and the main bedroom had a fantastic walk in wardrobe. The main bathroom was very well equipped with a great shower although one of the light bulbs in the shower cubicle was not working. Lovely views and there appeared to be a great garden area but not for us in November! Met the owner on arrival and was very welcoming. Good location for accessing Peak District attractions and walks and nice pub in the village. Overall, a convenient, well equipped, warm, cottage ideal for a short break and family celebration.
