  • "My friend and I had a lovely break in Clover cottage where we were made so welcome and at home by Matt and Elaine, the owners."

    They were so friendly and helpful in all areas of our stay. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The cottage itself was ideal and contained everything you could possibly need for a perfect holiday. I wish both Matt and Elaine all the very best with their future bookings and would have no hesitation in returning for a future holiday. Sandra Teale

    Sandra, you are too kind! You, Anne, Mia & Bailey were the perfect guests! Elaine and I really appreciated you staying with us. The fun and laughs we all had were just what we needed! Property Owner

  • "The cottage had a well equipped kitchen including boiling water tap (although a kettle was also provided) and a very good shower room."

    Parking was just outside the cottage in their gated courtyard, which is situated near the owner’s farmhouse. The settee was very comfortable and I also enjoyed sitting in the “rocking chair”! No mobile signal but the Wi-Fi was good. Much enjoyed the rural view, seeing the cows being moved daily to the top field. The cottage was well placed for sightseeing and would be good for cycling or walking,. We went on the Peak Rail steam train trip from Rowsley to Matlock, on a wet day, and enjoyed Matlock Bath, Ashbourne, Ilam Park, Dovedale, and Bakewell. The relatively nearby pretty village of Winster was a daily visit, for newspapers, local bread, butter, milk and groceries (local shop and Post Office). Sainsbury’s (with petrol station) and other shops could be found at Matlock. The garden was small but very secure for our two small dogs, with a small lawn and paved patio with garden seats - and an outside light for nighttime “visits”. As I was on crutches I did find the steps were quite steep to the garden, with no handrail, but I did manage, with care, and this was of course mentioned in the property description. A very handy porch/boot room to the front of the property was convenient to dry off the dogs and to leave our wet coats, shoes, etc! There was also a washing machine, if required, and a very handy mop! We enjoyed our visit to the cottage and would recommend.

    Super review Ian. Lots of great information for future guests. It's a shame we didn't get to meet you, but maybe you would like to visit again and Elaine and I will meet you then! Property Owner

  • "The description was not entirely accurately."

    The main objection was the steep steps to the rear garden, no mention of this on the promotional literature. I am elderly and infirm and there was no way I could safely use them, certainly with no handrail on either side of the steps. They would also be a potential hazard for small children. Consequently,, I was unable to enjoy the fresh air and the lovely view. The lounge floor was dirty and the washer was old and inoperable. All in all an overpriced week.

  • "Super lovely cottage."

    Whilst on a working farm, the cottage and garden are private. Garden is fully enclosed with at least a waist-high stone boundary wall (higher in places) including a grassed and gravel area so great for dogs. Bed is super comfy, great shower and quality kitchen facilities which all appear new. Hard flooring throughout and a very handy porch which could be used to house wet doggies while they dry off. Just across the road to a number of footpaths with other great walks and places of interest close by. Hosts always on hand although totally respect your privacy. Would not hesitate to re-visit.

    Thank you Diane, lovely review and great additional information for other visitors. Much appreciated. Of course Elaine and I would be happy to welcome you back. Property Owner

  • "Beautiful cottage in a great location with lovely hosts."

    Elaine and Matt could not have been more friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. We asked for more bin bags and hey presto the bins were changed for us. The cottage was immaculate with a very high standard of equipment. Would definitely stay here again and have no hesitation in recommending it. Lots to do in the area, wish we could have stayed longer. Thanks Elaine and Matt.

    Thank you so much Linda for your great review. It was an absolute pleasure having you both, and Hughie of course, stay in our cottage. You would always be welcome to visit again! Property Owner

About the location

WINSTER

Bakewell 6 miles; Matlock 4.5 miles.

The conservation village of Winster is situated within the White Peak area of the Peak District National Park and is an extremely pretty place, with a charming 17th century market house at its centre, and other imposing 17th and 18th century houses, many three storeys high. The three main streets - Main Street, East Bank and West Bank are interconnected by alleyways known as ‘ginnels’, which are well worth exploring. The village of Winster is famous for its Morris dancers, the annual Shrove Tuesday pancake race, Wakes festivities in June, and the Secret Gardens of Winster event in July. Within the village there is a well-stocked, community-owned general store incorporating a Post Office. There are two pubs, both serving food and traditional beer. Bakewell, Matlock, Chatsworth House, and the Peak Rail Steam Railway are all nearby and, for keen walkers and cyclists, The Limestone Way runs along the edge of the village. The Tissington and High Peaks walking and cycling trails, with bike hire available, both lie less than 5 miles from the village, a wonderful base for exploring the Peak District.
