  • "Traffic noise was horrendous from trucks and lorries beginning at 5 am ending at 7 pm."

    Extremely low doors that were not mentioned. Bumped heads many times and ended up wearing bobble hat indoors. Not very dog friendly. No garden or green space of any kind to let your dog out in. It meant walking out at 5:30am for a dog walk and late on in the evening. The dog was never able to be off the lead. If your dog gets out of the front door it’s chances are not good. Cromford itself is amazing and would go back at the drop of a hat but sadly not in Bobbin cottage.

    We were saddened to hear that you did not enjoy your stay at Bobbin Cottage and sorry to hear that your husband hit his head one of the doorways. You emailed during your stay to say that this had happened and told me that he is 6ft 6 inches tall. We have never felt the need to mention the height of the doorways. The description does say that Bobbin Cottage is a grade 2 listed millworkers cottage, so you would expect doorways to be low. That said the doors are actually not that low and no one else has reported an issue. My husband is over 6ft tall and never knocked his head and our plumber is about 6ft 6 as well and never had a problem. I’m happy to add into the description that if you are very tall, you may find one of the doorways low. We genuinely want everyone to be pleased with Bobbin Cottage, so have gone to a lot of effort to be honest in our description so would urge everyone who is looking to book it to read the description in full. The description mentions that there is not a garden as such but a sitting area on a shared path and the potential for traffic noise from the road, mainly at peak times. Both of these factors are reflected in the pricing structure for Bobbin Cottage. Bobbin Cottage is one of the cheapest dog friendly cottages in the Peak. I’m sorry it wasn’t for you but fortunately we have many happy repeat bookers with dogs who have positively reviewed Bobbin Cottage and found it to be dog friendly. Good Luck with finding somewhere that is more suited to you in Cromford. Property Owner

    Love staying here, feels very much like home from home, with all the facilities you need for a week away. Very clean, comfortable bed and found no issues with the road. Very relaxing week. Cromford is an excellent base to explore the region. Highly recommend a visit to Cromford Mills. Both the Bell and Boat Inn are welcoming. The Boat Inn serve some delicious food.

  • "Its a great location minutes form the square in Cromford , the place was very tidy and clean with lots of info and books on places to visit and walks etc - too many to read !"

    We have 2 small criticisms - the info suggested there was a private garden & there was no garden , it would have been good to have found a pint of milk when we arrived as no shops were open ( we have been to cottages where you find a cake , milk etc when you arrive . . its a nice touch !

    Pleased you found Bobbin Cottage's location convenient. Sorry if you thought there would be a private garden. Sykes use the garden symbol if there is any outdoor space however small. We therefore clearly clarify this in our description by saying 'No garden but small seating area available, off path shared by cottages in terrace' and we include a picture. I don't see how we can be any clearer. We want everyone to be pleased with Bobbin Cottage, so have gone to a lot of effort to be honest in our description so would urge everyone who is looking to book it to read the description in full. We have made a conscious decision not to offer welcome products. Bobbin Cottage is one of the cheapest dog friendly cottages in the area and we have many repeat customers who come back because it is good value for money. To offer welcome gifts we would have to increase our prices to cover purchase of the goods and the labour involved in purchasing and delivering on day of arrival. Property Owner

    Thank you for your review and so pleased you would recommend Bobbin Cottage. As you say its a small cottage, so we just don't have space for things like a washing machine or coffee machine.

    30am for light sleepers although there is secondary glazing which helps with the noise. Parking outside the house and normally plenty space. No garden but seat at the back door. No washing machine or dishwasher and only one bath towel per person for a week plus two dish towels but could request more by contacting the owner. We did not bother but thankfully brought spare ones with us Good facilities otherwise with catch up tv, excellent wi fi and plenty pots, crockery etc.. Loved all the guide books and maps for exploring the immediate area and further afield which were appreciated as was the advance information .Cromford is ideally situated to explore the Peak District and lots to see and do in perfect walking country. Did not try any of the local restaurants but there are good and varied choices in the village and nearby Matlock and Wirksworth. Ideal cottage for two. Very clean and some of the facilities may have been restricted by Covid which was reassuring.

    Thank you for your review. We were pleased you found Bobbin Cottage quaint, clean and ideal for two. Bobbin Cottage is on a busy B road, we are honest about this in our description and this is reflected in the pricing structure for Bobbin Cottage. We have installed secondary glazing and blanket lined curtains to minimise noise and many guests say they aren't bothered by noise once inside the property. One set of bath towels and one set of hand towels provide is as recommended by Sykes and usual for a week's stay in self-catering accommodation. Property Owner

There was so much more to explore and discover - more to do with the cotton mills and more to do with the earlier lead mining industry. The walking was superb - not enough hours in the day to do all we wanted. The cottage was just right for the two of us and our two dogs.

If you fancy a meal out we wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Tapas bar in the Market Place, it was absolutely delicious and very good value. The walks around Cromford detailed by the owners were great, but also thoroughly enjoyed the Monsal Trail from Blackwell Mill in Chee Dale (where the gentleman at the cycle hire shop was particularly helpful) to Bakewell. Chatsworth House is definitely worth a visit even just the gardens if you have dogs, as is a trip to the Heights of Abraham country park via cable car from Matlcok Bath. Spectacular scenery everywhere, brilliant holiday all round.

    Easy access,& parking outside cottage very good. Buses to all local villages extremely good,no need to use the car.Bakewell is a must,as is the vintage tram village & the cable cars. Noisy ,very busy main road outside cottage but don’t let that put you off staying at bobbin cottage as secondary double is very good. Made mistake of leaving bedroom window open first night hardly slept at all ☹️☹️ But after that closed everything & left bathroom window open for air flow which worked a treat, hardly could hear it at all...stairs are steep & uneven ,hard to handle if you have mobility problems . Be aware their is no garden for a dog to be let out into , just a seat outside the back door . Shower was good,but plug/ drain needs clearing out as standing in 6” water when taking a shower ,takes a age to drain away. Never had a bath , would imagine could take all day to run away not a mayor problem but does need sorting out.

  • "Sykes were very good but for some reason I was unable to check the facilities of the cottage on the site once I had booked."

    I wanted to check in order to pack appropriately. The cottage was very cosy, clean and dog friendly.

  • "It would best be described as 5-star luxury."

    This is my second visit to Bobbin cottage and what I particular appreciated was the personal touch from the owner in the emails received by her. A most welcoming approach. Wonderful area for walking with the cottage being in the most convenient position for general access, eg: bus stop with a frequent service to the most important towns right outside the front door! I shall certainly consider repeat visits in the years to come. Chris Bruce.
