“This is a beautiful cottage.”

I celebrated my 30th here with my friends and family, there was plenty of parking, the hot tub was fantastic and the decor was lovely. There’s a nice pub a short walk away (Red Lion) that does a great pie! All in all, a fab long weekend and The Mews was the perfect setting for a celebration. We didn’t want to leave!

“We had a fabulous stay at The Mews in Hollington.”

The owner, Phillipa, was wonderful and made sure everything was just right for us. The fresh milk, eggs and homemade cake were a lovely touch.

“Perfect week away”

What can I say........ absolutely stunning, Phillipa was there to meet us with fresh eggs and cakes. Immaculate and cosy stay, everything you could want is in the property, with a lovely hot tub after a day out, also to open the back door to the field with the pet sheep! especially LARRY! ps. they love a digestive biscuit. Then be greeted by Natasha the Cat partial to a bit of bacon!. Warm and cosy stay, pub 6 min walk, food was excellent. Definitely will return without a doubt and didn't want to leave.

“The Mews is a lovely cottage with everything you need.”

It is located in a quaint village with fields at the back of the house, two eating areas and an amazing hot tub. The cottage is very comfortable and the bedrooms are positioned away from each other, giving plenty of privacy. It was a delight to return to after a day out in beautiful Derbyshire,would highly recommend it.

“Beautiful and clean cottage.”

Welcome pack was appreciated. Cottage was in an ideal location close to local shop and pub. The sheep in the field were lovely and it was enjoyable to feed them. If I was ever to go back to this part of the country I would definatley book this cottage again and would recommend to family and friends

- Miss White, August 2018
“The cottage was beautiful and included everything we needed and more.”

We particularly appreciated all the extras in the cupboards which you don’t always get in other properties. The outside space was really private and the sheep were really entertaining! Phillips was really helpful throughout our stay. One of our party was elderly and needed a doctors appointment and she was able to help with this. We would definitely recommend this property!

“Perfect holiday retreat”

My family and I have just spent an incredible week at the Mews thanks to Pauline and Julian’s exceptional hospitality. A delicious homemade cake, fresh eggs and milk greeted us on our arrival followed shortly afterwards by the most adorable family of bread-eating sheep. The beautiful and spacious accommodation was flawless, with plenty of space for the whole family to have time alone or gather together to play board games round the table. The hot tub sealed the deal. Altogether a perfect holiday. Thank you!

“The owners are truly exceptional and have a really beautiful place here at the Mews.”

Anything you need, they are on hand, and the property is just beautiful. This is our third visit over a number of years and the place just gets better.

“Fabulous cottage, fabulous hosts”

Have just stayed at the Mews for the third time with a group of girlfriends and the place just gets better. Everything you need is here - you just need to turn up and relax. The place is beautifully decorated, is clean, and has everything you need to enjoy your holiday - so nothing to stress about! The owners, Phillipa and Jules are just the loveliest people, and nothing is too much trouble for them. We love the Mews for a girly getaway and get to chill in the hot tub which is just brilliant! I can't recommend the place enough - and they also have two other properties which are perfect for a smaller gathering. Go and see them - you won't be disappointed. :)

“Celebration Weekend”

A gorgeous weekend getaway celebrating my parents 50th wedding anniversary! 8 of us (3 children 5adults) just spent a long weekend at The Mews and it was a real home from home, we had a great time. Lovely home made scones and jam on arrival, and a gorgeous hot tub to relax in. Views over the fields and the pleasure of meeting a new born lamb. Would recommend. Everything was lovely

“Perfect girls weekend away”

Just had the most fantastic girls weekend away at The Mews. Slept 6 comfortably. Decor amazing, was comfortable, clean, warm and stunning. We all enjoyed the hot tub even though we had snow most of the weekend. Sheep in the field behind us were an added surprise. Highly recommend a stay here. Phillipa-owner was very kind and gave us advise of the local places to visit. Had lunch on the Saturday in the Red Lion, just a few minutes away (walking distance) and returned the next day for Sunday lunch as it was so good. Stunning countryside and 2 other accommodations also available through Phillipa. A huge added bonus was fresh eggs and home made scones and jam left out for us on our arrival. Couldn’t ask for more.

“Fabulous cottage in a lovely location!”

Myself and six friends stayed in The Mews for a long weekend. The cottage is beautiful, and Philippa has done an amazing job of making it feel like a home away from home!

- A Holiday Lettings verified reviewer, February 2018
“Perfect!”

Such a lush place! The cottage was absolutely pristine. Six friends and I stayed for three nights for our birthday get together and it was fantastic. Beautiful surroundings, the hot tub is great and the local pub is a five minute walk - i’d absolutely recommend.

- James R, February 2018

Hosts were very helpful and friendly. Location was ideal and surroundings were lovely

“Perfect for our New Year stay”

From the moment we arrived, the Mews lived up to expectations. Phillipa, the host, made sure we had everything we needed and left us to get on with our weekend. Champagne in the hot tub to see in the New Year, local pub for meals - all brilliant. The cottage was well equipped and everything worked. The fires and heating kept us cosy when we got back from walks in the Peaks (Dovedale is only 20 minutes away in the car). Will certainly consider booking again - you should too!

- Brian F, January 2017
“Perfect stay”

Just returned from midweek break at The Mews. (Family get together ) Totally agree with previous reviews... Best cottage we have ever stayed in. Everything was so well thought out ... Simple things that make the difference.... Large kettle ,teapot & toaster made breakfast hassle free. Numerous pots & pans & crockery. Plenty of literature on local surroundings, games & cards for rainy days, although we had great weather. Plastic cups for the hot tub & a lovely welcoming gift of fresh farm eggs, jug of milk & home made cake. We visited the Red Lion one evening & were given a friendly welcome so of course we had to go again on pie night. Can't wait to return to the mews & the red lion.

“The hot tub rocks!”

I booked the Mews for a girls weekend away, with the hot tub being our main lure! And we were not disappointed! The hot tub comfortably fitted all 7 of us. The cottage is beautifully decorated and so homely. The photographs really do not do it justice- it's much bigger than I expected. We are all already considering booking our next trip with husbands and partners. Simply can't fault it. Brilliant!

- Gemma M, September 2015
“Wonderful property, friendly owners”

beautiful property! The photos do not really do it justice. Well equipped and in a picturesque setting. We loved the hot tub with its lovely outlook. The owners Phillipa and Julian could really not have been more hospitable or helpful during our stay. The local pub,The Red Lion, which is 10 mins walk away serves good food and is very friendly. A slightly longer stroll takes you to the Saracens Head which is a gastropub well worth a visit. Close by,Ashbourne is a nice market town with some great shops and cafes. We will definitely return!

About the location

HOLLINGTON, DERBYSHIRE

Ashbourne 6 miles.

Steeped in history and situated at the southern end of the Peak District, the lovely village of Hollington, mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, provides home to a scattering of traditional brick built cottages, old farmhouses and barn conversions, whilst being surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside and offering a number of country pubs renowned locally for excellent service and fine cuisine. Nearby Ashbourne is the perfect example of an English market town, boasting an eccentric street plan, narrow, cobbled alleys, old market stalls and many fine coaching inns. In its heyday, during the 18th century, the town was a fashionable social centre and many fine Georgian buildings remain from this period. Today the town still has much to offer with a good selection of restaurants, whilst being regarded as something of a haven for antique hunters - but don't expect a bargain! For those who prefer outdoor pursuits, the Dove and Manifold Valleys are close by offering good walking and cycling, whilst Alton Towers is just 25 minutes away!
