“I highly recommend Josephs Cottage.”

The cottage was to a high standard and in a lovely location. We felt very comfortable to time we was there.

The cottage was to a high standard and in a lovely location. We felt very comfortable to time we was there. The local village was very friendly and has everything you could need, pubs, shop, chip shop, bakery and Indian takeaway/restaurant. We had some great days out in Derbyshire. We had a fantastic week and will definitely return to this cottage.

Miss West July 2020

“Joseph’s Cottage is a fabulous little place.”

On arrival it was gleaming and the welcome pack was a lovely touch and was enjoyed by all. The cottage was also spotless and had clearly been cleaned thoroughly. The cottage was well equipped with everything thought of and really felt like a home from home. Location wise it is perfect for exploring the Peak District and Crich itself is a lovely village. It was the perfect size for myself and my two teenagers and we will hopefully be back!

Dr Cole June 2019

“This was a very comfortable house - part of its appeal is that it's tiny, yet everything you could possibly need has been shoe-horned in!”

We were grateful for the wood-burning stove because it was unseasonably cold weather while we were staying. We appreciated the welcome gifts (wine, crisps). It's also a real plus to have an excellent bakery/café within easy walking distance.

- Dr Cole, June 2019

Dr King April 2019

“Joseph's cottage is a lovely place to spend a few days with the family.”

It was warm and comfortable and had everything that we could possibly want. The owners had thought of everything and the welcome pack including a bottle of prosecco was a lovely touch. It was a great base to explore the Peak District, the tram museum in Crich itself is a must. I would efinitely stay here again

Mr Cicchirillo April 2019

“The cottage was clean and cosy and had everything we could have needed to enjoy our stay, we had also been given some wine and Easter Eggs for the children which was a really lovely and unexpected treat, thank you.”

The log burner made our evenings super cosy and the 500 piece puzzle kept the children occupied for a while! We had a fantastic time.

- Mr Cicchirillo, April 2019
Mr Maxted February 2019

“We had a wonderful stay at Joseph's Cottage - it was the perfect size for our family of four and felt very cosy and homely.”

We also very much appreciated the welcome pack! The cottage is in a great position, close to lots of activities and attractions for the children. We had a lovely time and would love to go back some time.

- Mr Maxted, February 2019

“My wife and I were delighted with the cottage , it was clean and comfortable and the log burner ensured it was warm.”

The cottage was well provisioned with almost nothing needed apart from food etc , the TV allowed us to log in with our Netflix account. We would like to return to the cottage at a later date. Regards Steve Hill

Miss Morgan August 2018

“Really lovely cottage and would highly recommend!”

Little things like a basket with bottle of wine, biscuits, crisps and bread was a lovely touch. Also toilet roll, bin bags and clean bedding and towels, hairdryer etc. We all had a really enjoyable few days, just wish we could have stayed longer!

- Miss Morgan, August 2018
Miss Blake August 2018

“This cottage was fabulous!”

A really well stocked kitchen and lots of little bits and pieces around the place making it a home from home. The wine and chocolate were a very welcome surprise. The place felt clean and comfortable. I went with my mum and we were both so happy with the cottage, the facilities and the location. It was a nice walk down the road into the village centre to get our essential food items and visit an actual butchers rather than a supermarket! The Tramway Museum just round the corner was well worth a visit. We were able to park just out front of the cottage and thankfully we didn't need to use the car to go anywhere as I wasn't convinced we'd still have a parking spot when we got back, so that was the only tiny negative in a long list of positives! I would 100% recommend this cottage to anyone and would be happy to stay there again. Thank you Ann for making such a lovely holiday home!

- Miss Blake, August 2018
Ms Joshi July 2018

The cottage was equipped with lots of goodies. It was in a good location for all the good attractions around.

- Ms Joshi, July 2018
Miss Benson July 2018

“Joseph's cottage was a really lovely property set in a beautiful location.”

It was lovely to find a welcome basket with some food essentials as well as a bottle of wine. This was a nice touch and was appreciated by all three of us. This is the second time we've been with you and your customer service, attention to detail and the accuracy of the listings mean we will continue to use you for the foreseeable future.

- Miss Benson, July 2018
Mr Houghton June 2018

“It is a lovely cottage great location .”

Very welcoming. Very comfy and clean. Will definately return. Thank you

- Mr Houghton, June 2018
Mr Kitson June 2018

“The cottage was in such a good spot for local attractions such as the Tramway Village and the memorial STAND”

- Mr Kitson, June 2018
Mrs Riley April 2018

“We've been lucky enough to stay in a lot of cottages in the UK and Joseph's cottage was very homely and well kitted out.”

The owners have obviously thought a lot about making people's stay easier and more enjoyable. We stayed with 2 small boys and they loved it and were well entertained for 4 nights. It was exactly what we were looking for with a couple of pubs within walking distance and a garden and plenty of longer walks and villages to explore only a short drive away.

- Mrs Riley, April 2018
Rob W April 2018

“A great cosy cottage”

Josephs cottage is a warm comfortable well equipped cottage furnished to a very high standard and a real home from home. It has bags of character yet all the modern conveniences we all expect including good wifi, comfortable beds and sofas, a well equipped modern kitchen, and well fitted bathroom. Although the cottage is on a relatively busy local road we were not at all disturbed by traffic noise and if you prefer to avoid parking on this road the cul-de-sac next to the cottage has ample quiet parking. The welcome pack is comprehensive and extremely kind, we were provided with bread, eggs, butter, milk, biscuits, crisps, wine. Tea towels, bin liners, washing up liquid, sponges, tea, coffee and sugar were provided and you could turn up with nothing and still eat and drink comfortably for the first meal. Many thanks to Ann for her hospitality, a highly recommended cottage with 2 good pubs within easy walking distance (the cliff and black swan).

- Rob W, April 2018
Ms Van Weede March 2018

“This was a really lovely, cozy cottage to stay in and we would definitely book again.”

The cottage has a light, friendly feel and is well stocked. The owner left us a lovely welcome basket which was much appreciated. Look forward to visiting again.

- Ms Van Weede, March 2018
Mrs Holme August 2017

“Lovely, clean and comfortable.”

Enclosed garden great for when the grandchildren visited. Lots of attractions nearby. Kostas fish and chip shop in Matlock Bath highly recommended; good portions, reasonable prices, children's meals, toilet, no wonder all the bikers go there.

- Mrs Holme, August 2017
Mr Swale August 2017

“This was a really nice and cute little cottage on the outskirts of Crich, near to Matlock and some other lovely Peak District locations.”

The cottage was really nice, with a lovely welcome pack, some games and books, and two cosy rooms. There were two pubs in the village, both of which were great! We did a few nice walks nearby, some of which were printed out in a folder in the house, and the house was well equipped for eating in - all the cooking implements you need! For business travellers, the WiFi was good enough for me to do some Skype calls while there (I plugged my computer into the router to make sure the speed was as fast as possible).

- Mr Swale, August 2017
Dr Armitage February 2013

“The cottage was very cosy and welcoming and well maintained.”

The DVDs and games were a nice touch. The area was a great base for exploring the Peak District.

- Dr Armitage, February 2013
Mr Sallis November 2012

“We loved everything about the cottage and the location.”

The fireplace was of course the icing on the cake.

- Mr Sallis, November 2012

“The cottage was in a good location and the condition was of a very high standard.”

We also received a nice welcome pack that was left by the owner.

- Mr McDonald, July 2012
Mrs Clark June 2012

“It was booked at short notice but turned into a really excellent choice considering the weather.”

Walking was difficult as ground so waterlogged but plenty of other attractions in the area to introduce my American visitors to. They had heard of the Lake District and Cotswolds but not the Peak District!

- Mrs Clark, June 2012
Mr Percival May 2012

“A convenient location for the Matlock area and Crich Tramway Village.”

- Mrs Bahyan, December 2011
Mrs Newlands July 2011

“The accommodation was excellent.”

Clean, fresh with absolutely everything we required. There was also the added bonus of a welcome pack from the owners which was very much appreciated. The cottage was in an ideal location for visiting not only the Tramway Museum but also the Heights of Abraham, Bakewell, Buxton, Ashbourne, Drayton Manor and Alton Towers.

- Mrs Newlands, July 2011
Mr Hughes June 2011

“The cottage was in an ideal location.”

Very clean, the owner left a generous provision of bread, milk, wine etc which we did not expect but was very welcome. The cottage was furnished to a high standard. Definitely recommend to friends and even return there ourselves.

About the location

CRICH

Matlock 7 miles.

The village of Crich (known as Cardale in the hit TV series Peak Practice) is full of character and history, and boasts a number of shops and several pubs. There are walks around the village, and trams (the village is home to the National Tramway Museum) move up the valley to some of the most beautiful views of the Derbyshire Dales. Matlock, 7 miles away, offers a range of shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as attractions such as Gulliver’s Kingdom. Magnificent views down the gorge can be enjoyed from the cable car that takes visitors up to the Heights of Abraham - a great place for all the family with its show-caves, nature trail, water gardens and Owl Maze. South of the town is the start of the High Peak Cycle Trail, while to the north are the market town of Bakewell, Chatsworth House and Park and Haddon Hall, with Carsington Water offering fantastic watersports - not to be missed! Ideal at any time of year!
