"Lovely cottage, perfect for a couple."
Great location, just a few minutes walk from the centre of Ashbourne and lots of amenities. Lovely outdoor area to sit and enjoy the view. We came on a walking holiday and found lots of useful information in the cottage about local routes and things to see. It was great to come back from a chilly walk and warm up in this cosy cottage. Would love to come back and stay.

"Great little cottage, perfect for our needs."
Parking on the road - we never got that close to the house and found the road too busy just to drop the suitcase off, even at 9pm. It didn’t detract from our stay. The email info said .. selection of t bags - we arrived late and had forgotten to pack any, there was one t bag!

"The property was homely, well presented and very, very clean (trust me, I'm a Domestic!"
) The owners, Susan and Chris, were especially helpful in telling us where to park, what facilities were on site and where was good to eat / drink. We both felt very welcome; and the location was ideal, very close to town. The only issue we found - and this is absolutely no fault of the owners - was that there was a yappy dog in the house directly opposite us, which would bark constantly between the hours of 7 and 9 in the morning, as well as in the evening. Again, I must state this is absolutely no fault of the owners, but it was still quite annoying as we were both woken from our sleep on both mornings. Other than that, we have no complaints. The cottage was beautiful and we are very thankful for all the hospitality we received during our visit. Cheers, Susan and Chris. All the best.

"The property is well maintained and within walking distance to the centre of the town."
The kitchen is very well stocked with utensils for those who wish to cook. The bedroom is spacious enough for a king sized bed and the balcony is an added bonus. There is more than enough storage space for clothes with the chest of drawers and wardrobe situated on the landing. The bathroom is roomy and contains everything you would expect. All in all this is an ideal location to stay in order to explore the surrounding areas. The only negative is the availability of parking close to the property. The road is quite narrow in places making it impossible to park outside the property to drop of luggage on arrival. However parking is available from about 50 yards down the road. This does not means that this is something anyone should be concerned about.
Thank you so much for your great comments about the cottage. Like you, we always find a parking space further down the road when we stay. It is a prime location for the town centre and local eateries plus it’s conveniently placed for local attractions.

"Lovely clean cottage in a great location."
The cottage had everything you need for a self catering holiday plus more. One of the best cottages we have stopped in. Excellent communication from the owners before we arrived with lots of information. No parking immediately outside but this wasn't a problem we just parked up the road. The cottage is ideally located for cycling or walking the Tissington Trail which starts just around the corner. The cottage is a 5 minute walk to town with plenty of shops for essentials plus pubs, a chippy, cafe and restaurants to choose from. Highly recommended.
Thank you for the very positive feedback on the cottage. We’re delighted you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back soon.

"Couldn't fault the property."
It is compact, but well equipped and comfortable and very convenient both for Ashbourne centre and for great walks.
The lack of car parking outside the front door is a very minor niggle in terms of transferring luggage, but would not put us off returning. We have already recommended Old End cottage to some friends.

The location of the property is perfect and is no more than 30 minutes to all the main places to visit. Ashbourne it self is no more than a 5 minute walk and is full of beautiful cafes and one off local shops. The pubs have great atmosphere and sell beautiful food. We found everyone to be very pleasant and polite.
We never struggled to park so this was not an issue for us.

"Our holiday at Old End Cottage was every thing we hoped it would be and it would be hard to find fault with."
The town of Ashbourne was really nice and quaint with nice small shops and for its size several Pubs that served meals. A bus trip to Buxton is a must for the journey takes you the long way round but it goes up in to the Peaks with great views, also a trip to Bakewell which was a very nice little town.

"Cute little cottage for 2 - nice and cosy, with space to relax."
Nice views from the back windows over the hills and valley. Lots of little vintage bits and artwork to add interest, it feels loved and homely. Garden is lovely, a real bonus to use on a sunny day - sadly it rained all week so we never sat out! Kitchen is a little tight if like us you cook your own meals, could maybe do with a little table nearby as extra work surface? If you always eat out then it's fine. Ashbourne has lots of nice shops - antiques, jewellers and higher-end names, a real mix of choice and interesting architecture. Plenty of places to visit nearby. Enjoyed our stay.

"A brilliant place within a stones throw of the lower Peak District (Dove dale just 15 mins drive)."
The cottage was perfect for us and our newborn to relax in. Brilliant facilities, great maps and walk guides, and really nice quality kitchenware which is a plus. The garden is a lovely space and catches the sun in the morning. A great spot. Ashbourne is a charming town with brilliant amenities, and one of the Peak District cycle paths (Tissington trail) starts less than a mile from the cottage. I fully recommend this place. Great value and great all round!
