  • "We were overjoyed when we entered the cottage it totally exceeded our expectations."

    The living area was especially welcoming. The kitchen was so we'll equipt it put mine to shame. It was a home from home. The grounds were lovely and the pub just a 5 minute walk away was a bonus. Thoroughly recommend the Gardeners Cottage. We liked it so much we've re-booked.

  • "Fabulous! Couldn’t have asked for better."

    We’re a group of mid-40s friends and this was perfect for us. Local walks, small town nearby and Matlock not too far for a night out. I guess the scenery isn’t as stunning as further in to the Peak District but it’s still nice. There’s nothing about the property I would change (- expect that the door to the master en-suite is on backwards with the lock on the outside and the light switch on the wrong side!)

  • "We arrived at Hopton Hall and were overwhelmed by the fantastic condition and facilities of the property, so well equipped."

    We really enjoyed the comfort and warmth of the cottage. The bedrooms and bathrooms were excellent. Plenty of parking for our three cars. The gardens are brilliant and exceptional, especially the parterre. We had a faultless stay. The property is a credit to the owners Chris and Andi.
