Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.

"Great bungalow, well set out, fantastic location for everything, on the sunny days could have done with a couple of loungers to sit on , only 2 plastic chairs which I had to scrub clean and an old bench , the garden was totally amazing for us and out boys ( my 2 wee Frenchie’s ) played allot in it ."
Plenty of plates ( had to clean them as there was still some sort of food on them ) and plenty pots and pans , could have done with a few knives to cut the food , but we managed, I was hovering the house and in the conservatory, I came across lots of ants , I used the fly/ wasp spray to get rid of them . Never came back, when I informed Sykes and the owner Mr Fox , a real gentleman, he got back to me immediately, unlike Sykes that took a few days , my wife loved the dishwasher , washing machine, etc , will I return, yes definitely if you get new pillows lol

The location of the property was ideal as the walk to town for shops such as Mark, Coop and Boots was easy. The pub round the corner does excellent food and when the car broke down having Kwik Fit rearby was also a godsend. The garden was a joy and well kept . Attractions such as Chatsworth and the Heights of Abraham were a short drive but the park in the town is also only a 10 minute walk away. Shame the football season had ended as a visit to Matlock Town FC may have happened.

The only negative thing l would say like other people have said that coming from Matlock the left turn into Matlock Green is very sharp and narrow l always went by turned round at the garage and then turn right into the lane, be very careful when coming out, yes my wife and l and the dog would stay there again.

"Matlock Green has become our favourite Sykes rental property yet, and we've stayed in quite a few!"
The location on the edge of Matlock town centre, with the park just across the road, was fantastic. Five minutes stroll took us to cafes, shops, fine dining, pubs, pretty much anything we could want. The bungalow itself was extremely clean and very spacious, nicely bright and airy, with enormous garden on all 4 sides. The beds were comfortable and the area was quiet, so we slept very well. The kitchen was very well equipped, including washing machine. We liked the poppy theme throughout.
Yes, it is a bit of tricky turning onto the lane from the main road (and back out again). Not easy when driving from Matlock itself, so recommend always approaching from the A615-Alfreton-direction (there are a number of places to go past the lane and turn back around if coming from the Matlock direction). Also recommend exiting back out in the Alfreton direction as well. We have a medium-sized SUV and the entry to the lane was fine - it looks tight, but if turning into the lane from the far side of the road, there really is plenty of room. For getting back out onto the main road, I always did it with the car window down to hear oncoming cars from the Matlock direction, and it was all perfectly manageable. Often when we go on staycation, when we park the car up we don't use it again until we leave, but at Matlock Green we went out and about a number of times in the local area, so the lane challenges really were not that big. The parking area is also very roomy - the easiest we have had at any UK rental property.
I had a lovely chat with the owner Mr Fox in advance of our stay, and he was so friendly and helpful. He answered all my questions, and also had lots of excellent recommendations for great food, the best dog-friendly venues, as well as one or two places to avoid. He also suggested some great places for walks, which we really enjoyed.
Definitely planning to visit again in 2022, as Matlock Green really is a lovely place to stay, with everything you could possibly need within a short level walk, and many beautiful and interesting places to visit within a short drive.

The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and was very well equipped. Plenty of space to move about in, large kitchen, sitting room and conservatory.
The garden was excellent, quite large and very private. A big plus for us was it's very well enclosed, at least our Jack Russells couldn't get out!
The surrounding area was quite busy with all sorts of shops and other conveniences almost on the doorstep. 5 minute walk to local shop and pub. (The Red Lion is very good, friendly welcome and well run with reasonably priced drinks and meals.) Not forgetting the fabulous Hall Leys park a 5 minute stroll away.
Lot's to do around here, Chatsworth House, lead mining museum, heights of Abraham, Matlock Bath and the tram museum all pretty near.
We loved it so much, we've booked it already for next year.

Where you’ll be staying
MATLOCK
Matlock Bath 1 mile; Bakewell 8 miles.
The popular Peak District town of Matlock, together with its neighbour, Matlock Bath, has been attracting visitors to the area since the spa was developed in the late 17th century. Set in the beautiful wooded gorge of the River Derwent, the Matlocks offer a range of shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as a host of attractions including Gulliver’s Kingdom and the Peak District Mining Museum. Magnificent views down the gorge can be enjoyed from the cable car which takes visitors up to the Heights of Abraham – a great place for all the family with its showcaves, nature trail, water gardens and Owl Maze. South of the town is the start of the High Peak Cycle Trail, whilst a short drive away is the National Tramway Museum at Crich. To the north are the market town of Bakewell and Chatsworth House and Park - not to be missed!
