"This Property is a real gem and has to be the best cottage that I have ever stayed in during all the years of Self Catering."
It is clean, spacious, nicely decorated, comfortable and has a well equipped kitchen with everything you need. There is a lovely conservatory overlooking the garden and this is a delight to sit in and watch the birds and squirrels or just relax.
It is extremely peaceful here even though it is less than a 5 minute walk to a supermarket, which is very handy. The owners are lovely and are on hand should you need them but not at all intrusive. I would not hesitate to recommend this place to my family and friends.

"What a lovely cottage, it had everything you could wish for and spotlessly clean."
The owners were so welcoming and friendly, really good local shopping. We really enjoyed our stays, and the dogs had a blast, playing in the secure garden (although our pup decided to try and be another Houdini), with lovely walks near. Would certainly recommend Millers Retreat very highly.

"We were absolutely delighted by Millers Retreat."
It is a beautiful property finished to a high standard and was spotlessly clean.
Bev and David were very welcoming. They had thoughtfully left a lovely welcome pack with tea, coffee, milk in the fridge and a bottle of wine!
It was very easy to take our young dog out for walks as there is a footpath just across the road from the property.
As we have friends who live nearby, we hope that we can return to Millers Retreat when we visit them. I would recommend Millers Retreat to people wanting to stay in the area.

"Millers Retreat is exceptional."
The property is spacious, spotlessly clean, extremely well-equipped and tranquil yet within a few minutes’ walk of the town centre and there is off-street parking at the property. The hosts David and Bev are charming and extremely welcoming; always available but never intrusive. Bolsover is a great centre for a variety of attractions : Bolsover Castle, New Bolsover model village, Hardwick Hall and Estate, Welbeck Estate, Chatsworth House, Hathersage, Stannage Edge, Clumber Park, Creswell Crags, Eyam and The great British Car Journey (for those interested in the history of British cars!). We cannot recommend this property and this area too highly.

"Wow what an amazing cottage, tucked away behind the main house, but beautifully designed with the holidaymakers in mind!"
Just little thoughtful touches, tea, coffee, sugar provided with milk in the fridge along with a bottle of wine. David and Bev were in the background when needed, especially with David’s thorough instructions on how to use the steam shower, absolute bliss after walks. One of our dogs, a Romanian tri paw street dog was interested in the wildlife food left in David and Bev’s, but she was returned to us safely. Dog walks just across the road, what more could we ask for. Enjoyed our break immensely.

"The property is excellent ."
No problems whatsoever.
However the reason I would not recommend you....is your refusal to accept a £ 25 voucher ! The person I dealt with last year when I booked it was in my view very unhelpful regarding the voucher...despite it being a 2 week booking !
I can easily afford £25...but loyalty counted for nothing.
Hello, only just noticed your comment, I do not know what you mean and presume your comment is aimed at Sykes themselves as do not take the booking or deal with the pricing. regards David Property Owner

"The cottage is lovely and spacious and the furnishings and contents are of a high quality."
The kitchen is well equipped with a large fridge and freezer. A large conservatory leads onto a lovely garden with lots of bird feeders that entice plenty of different varieties of birds. We even saw a hedgehog and a squirrel. There is plenty to do around the area and Bolsover is a small town but has most things you need. There are plenty of supermarkets a short distance away and some lovely pubs not too far away. The hosts are friendly and helpful. I would recommend this cottage as it is home from home with plenty of space and everything you need to enjoy your holiday.

"Millers Retreat is a 5+ star property with everything you need and more."
The owners are friendly and helpful. The information folder in our opinion was limited, it had the basic information. What would have been nice, is some details on restaurants, pubs and take a way. It was advertised as wifi. It was extremely hit and miss, some times you had a good signal than nothing. The best signals come from properties around us. Because of the limited wifi connection maybe it should not be advertised as having it, as I was constantly using my mobile providers service, not what I had expected or paid for. The other thing we would like to add is a more detailed list of what Derbyshire sees as recycle. As there's appears to be different from other regionals in the Uk. Apart from the above, we truly enjoyed our stay, and would like to go back in the future.
