Nuffies Cottage

Thank you so much for a really lovely holiday this past summer.

We live abroad and it's nice to return home to a place that, although we're not from Derbyshire, nevertheless felt like home. It's located in an ideal spot to hike and drive and explore. Thank you again for opening up your farm to us, truly.

We loved our stay at Nuffies.

Great location to explore - we visited Chatsworth, Mam Tor, Castleton and spent days at Gulliver's Kingdom and Crich Transport museum. The Beer Fest at the local brewery was an unexpected event. We would be very happy to return.

Cannot fault Nuffies in any way.

Accommodation was as described with all facilities available. On arrival was greeted by family members who live on the farm. A greeting package of tea coffee biscuits etc was provided. A nice gesture. A small garden was an ideal suntrap. Nuffies is ideally positioned for short drives to most visitor attractions.

A lovely well equipped, comfortable, clean cottage.

the well maintained garden has an open west facing aspect over farmland. So an evening suntrap. The long single track access lanes can be tricky if an oncoming vehicle is encountered. Luckily this only happened once during our 3 day stay.

This was a lovely place to stay, nice and comfy with everything you could need.

The owners were friendly and helpful. By chance we were there during a village beer festival, to which we felt welcomed. Good position for access to the cycling trails.

Lovely property in a great location.

Super set of two cottages, which were perfect for a family get together.

We were able to make full use of all the facilities available, and were within easy reach of local areas of interest. Friendly owners, and a welcoming, warm feel to the cottages when we arrived. Thank you.

I booked this because it had ground floor facilities fir my elderly dad but there wasn’t anything in description relating to the steps to garden so needs putting in ….

. This place is amazing, the cottage, the surrounding areas the family who own it are on hand and will do anything you need . Will return for sure

The Cottage was very comfortable and well equipped.

Beds were good and the kitchen had plenty of space and everything you need. The fridge was a little small for a group of 6. Any problems or questions were addressed by the owners including supplying us with a few bits for cokking that we forgot to bring with us. The description is accurate but I think we found that for our group of 4 adults and 2 children it didn't work so well for us. Having the en suite off the twin room used by the children left 4 adults using the main bathroom. The lounge area was also a bit small for us. It is worth considering the needs of your group before booking. The main frustration was the very poor internet. The signal dropped in and out, cutting off transactions such as paying for tickets for attractions in advance. In the end we had to stop using it and rely on our phones. I suspect this is a symptom of the remote location but if this is an important issue for you then this may not be the right lcoation for you. The cottage is quite remote and the nearest shops and conveniences are a short drive away. All in all a plesant cottage in a pleasant location. Read the description carefully and consider if the unusual layout is for you.

Peaceful, clean, wonderful holiday home.

With very secure bike storage. WiFi is a bit slow, but not a problem for us, as we were there to enjoy the country side. The owners were friendly and helpful. Hope to return in the future.

Lovely property, very nicely renovated barn, warm and comfortable with all we needed and the owners were very helpful too.

Great for our needs as there was a downstairs bedroom with an en suite shower room as well as two other bedrooms with a bathroom upstairs.

Lovely comfortable cottage, well equipped and friendly helpful owners onsite.

Remote, quiet location but easy to drive to nearby towns. Will definitely return.

Appreciated a quick response from the friendly owners when the lights fused - all sorted in two minutes.

The cottage suited us very well - lots of cooking utensils, comfy sitting area and we could walk from the door into lovely countryside.

We had a great week here and the people are lovely.

There was a problem with the TV which they kindly replaced with a brand new one just in time for the Queen's funeral. There was also a problem with a collapsing bed which was a nuisance but they were proposing to sort it out. The cottage is a bit remote but in a lovely area and relatively convenient for places around Derbyshire. I would be happy to stay again.

The cottage was absolutely beautiful.

Lovely garden area. The owners are really friendly and welcomed us when we arrived

Our party of 6 adults was made to feel very welcome by Gill and Mick, who were also readily available with advice on local walks and places to visit further away.

Nothing was too much trouble for them. Nuffies Cottage is beautifully furnished, has everything you require ( and if it hadn’t, we were asked to knock at the host’s door to see if they had ) and is very comfortable. The outside patio and seating area catches the afternoon sun and was just what we needed to relax after strenuous walking. Nuffies is a very peaceful and calming place to stay. We’d love to stay again.

The cottage is a home from home, it has everything you need for a family holiday.

In a beautiful setting it's the perfect place to unwind and relax. We would love to go back.

Friendly owner made us very welcome.

Homely cottage in a quiet location. Well equipped with everything we needed. A good base for exploring Derbyshire.

Really warm and cosy cottage, ideally suited as a base to lots of the Peak District areas for visits.

Very quiet. Loads of hot water for baths after long walks. Well stocked kitchen for culinary needs. Comfortable beds. Lovely little garden at the back for sunny breakfasts. Couldn't have asked for more really!

We thoroughly enjoyed our quick trip to the Peak District and our stay at Nuffies was lovely.

Our group was made up of two families, each with four young children between us (all 4 and under). We were very impressed with the provisions from filled soap bottles, extra toilet roll, all the pots/pans and dishes one requires to really make a go of self-catering, and the array of child-friendly plates/bowls/cutlery among other amenities. It was the perfect set-up for both of our families and we were extremely comfortable there. We enjoyed the surrounding views and took a trip over to Thornbridge Hall & Gardens and Bakewell. The host was very helpful and responsive to all our communications and it's an ideal base for exploring the surrounding countryside. We definitely would return again!

Just back from a long weekend at The Nuffies.

The cottage was spotless, comfortable and had everything you would need, plus more! It was the first time away with a 7 month old but the facilities made it a very relaxing and enjoyable experience. The setting is beautiful with lovely views and plenty to do nearby. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Nice comfortable cottage ideal for places to visit

Very comfortable and well equipped cottage, done to a high standard.

Liked the location and friendly hosts. Would go again.

We had a wonderful few days at Nuffies Cottage, and received a very warm welcome from our hosts, Jill and Mick.

The cottage has everything you could need, and is very much a home from home. Our eldest son(4) was able to help give milk to two orphan lambs in the barn, which he was over the moon about. Despite the rain, we had enjoyable days out, with lots of puddle jumping! It's a beautiful part of the country. We'll definitely be back to stay at Nuffies Cottage.

The accomodation was excellent, the owner friendly and welcoming.

We could not have wished for better, and we got to feed the lambs, an added bonus.

A lovely week in the Peak District.

The house was well equipped and comfortable, our hosts were very welcoming and helpful. We'll be back!

We have just returned from a week at Nuffies Cottage, my wife and I, Son and Daughter in law and our 15 month grand daughter.

Just to say from the start, we could not have been happier with our choice of cottage/location/hosts and luckily the weather. You are staying on a working farm, the cottage faces onto a courtyard shared with another holiday let, a cottage occupied by a family member and of course the home of your hosts Gill and Mick. Due to the slope of the land, all downstairs windows face onto the courtyard, upstairs bedrooms have views of the surrounding countryside. It is well sized even for six people with two double bedrooms and a separate bathroom upstairs, kitchen/dining area and lounge area downstairs with a further twin bedroom and en-suite off this main area.. Apart from yourselves and food, just about everything else is provided, in a separate building is a utility room with washing machine and dryer which you are able to use, and various items such as high chairs/ironing board etc. Location is at the top of a hill [hence Hill Top Farm] just over a mile from the A5012 . Aldwark is a very small group of farms, the nearest pub is the Hollybush Inn which is about 1 mile down hill. Consequently any journeys out for a drink or evening meal would need to be by car unless you are quite fit and mobile. This was not a problem for us as we ate in every evening with our young grand daughter and the kitchen is fully equipped with oven/hob/microwave. All in all, if you are looking for a quiet stay in wonderful surroundings you could do a lot worse than stay with Gill and Mick, sadly even they cannot guarantee the weather but we were more than lucky with our weeks worth of bright sunshine.

The views from the garden are amazing, and it is a very sheltered / sunny spot.

The owner is very welcoming, friendly and helpful.

Our hosts were very friendly and accommodated our flexible requirements

Unfortunately for us it rained most of the time, so we didn’t get to enjoy the wonderful views.

Mrs Harrison was lovely and friendly. The heating was on when we got there which was very welcome. This place is very high up almost in the back of beyond but also more accessible to local places than we first realised. Would be beautiful in the spring/summer time and be able to sit out and listen to the silence. Lovely.

Fantastic well equipped cottage.

Very comfortable beds. Heating is excellent. Owners are friendly and informative. Cottage set on a working cow farm. Excellent base for Matlock, Buxton and Dovedale.

Lovely home from home !

Spacious and had everything we needed ! Lovely views across the countyside! The children loved visiting the cows and sheep each morning too. Lovey relaxing stay! Just what we were hoping for :)

Great cottage in a tiny village but ideally situated for exploring the region.

Peaceful and quiet.

Very nice holiday.

Close to many atractions. Just the bed was too soft for me.

Owners made us very welcome and nothing was too much trouble,excellent with the children and were always there if we needed them (which we didn't,) we will certainly visit again

We had a lovely stay.

The cottage was perfect for 2 families with 4 young children - well equipt and clean. The children enjoyed the toys and visiting the cows! Close to Matlock and Buxton where we visited lovely parks. Would recommend.

The cottage was set on a farm in a very quiet area of the Peak District.

The owner was very welcoming and friendly . It offers a good base for exploring the local sights and activities. Would certainly recommend this cottage for a quiet break from everyone's busy life!!!
