  • "Wow! What a wonderful welcome from Jane and Terry at their beautiful, super clean, well appointed, warm and cosy cottage."

    How lovely in these post covid days of opening a key safe, letting yourselves in a not meeting the owners all week to have such great hosts. They were helpful and informative, so much so, Jane text me (I thought she would) at 9.30 and we all stood in her garden watching the Northern Lights glowing in the skies above the cottage. A fabulous end to a brilliant week! Amazing walking, Dovedale, Thors cave, Carsington Water and Longshaw Estate, NTrust, Biddulph, Kedleston, Sudbury and Calke Abbey. A holiday to remember, absolutely brilliant! Thank you!

    Thank you very much for the feedback. I am very pleased you had a good holiday and liked the cottage. Thank you for leaving it so clean and tidy. Agreed the northern lights were very special, i am so glad we all managed to see them. Best wishes, Jane. Property Owner

    On arrival the cottage was found warm, clean,tidy and welcoming as expected. The owners next door were welcoming and always on hand with helpful tips on where best to go for meals out etc. The cottage is well situated for access to local towns as well as the southern Peak District. If going back to that area we would certainly staying there again.

    Thank you for taking the the time to leave feedback and thank you very much for your kind comments. We are pleased you enjoyed your holiday despite the weather and the cottage was as you had hoped. Best wishes, Jane. Property Owner

  • "Really nice cottage with all you need for a lovely stay."

    Jane and family close if needed but also feel that they left us to enjoy stay. Lots of lovely pubs to explore and eat at. Very quiet but close to main routes to areas. Will look at staying again when journeying to peak district. Only extra that would be great is a small local welcome pack of local produce. Many places do this for that initial treat on arrival.

    I'm really pleased you like the cottage and it sounds like you enjoyed your holiday. Regarding the local produce welcome pack: it is hard to accommodate the multitude of dietary requirements and preferences that exist . Therefore we concentrate on making sure the cottage has been thoroughly cleaned, the grass mown, paths swept etc. and that everything is presented as well as it can be, ready for your holiday. We do go out of our way to try to be here for when guests arrive so we can welcome you with the offer of a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits on your arrival. Property Owner

  • "Lovely cottage, road on both sides of the cottage so it was noisy."

    Garden not as big as we thought, and we could not walk the dog at all from the cottage. Stairs very slippy, also a handrail on the wall would help. Apart from that we had a good week rest. Freezer was great to have, and we arranged a delivery from Tesco's, so that was brilliant not having to cart food there. Thank you to Terry and Jane,

    Thank you for visiting Top Stable Cottage. I think this is the first time anyone has suggested the garden is too small. I would agree that to remain in all day with an energetic dog a much bigger property all together would be necessary. However, the garden has an area with bench seating at the entrance, a lawn and a further separate seating area which is surely reasonable for a cottage which only accommodates 2 people. As regards the stairs, it is a wooden staircase, as can be seen from the photographs. There is of course a handrail on one side of the stairs. Thank you for your feedback, best wishes, Jane Property Owner

  • "Our first visit to Top Stable Cottage."

    The property was well equipped, clean and tidy. Too many gates to go through because of one excitable friendly dog. Due to the location of the cottage, we found it was extremely noisy with motor vehicle traffic passing most of the time and for this reason we will not be returning for another holiday.

    First of all we are sorry the cottage failed to meet your expectations. The gates you mention were a temporary measure due to building work. These were removed on the Tuesday of your visit. We are also disappointed you found traffic noise a problem. In our experience this is rarely a problem other than when farmers are working in the fields. Again, we are sorry you have been disappointed, thank you for your feedback. Property Owner

Turnditch is a delightful hillside village in the heart of Derbyshire overlooking the Ecclesbourne Valley. Conveniently located on the Belper to Ashbourne road, the village has a church, school and three pubs. The adjacent village of Hulland Ward offers a petrol station, shop and Post Office. There are many walks up and down the valley, as well as cycling and watersports at nearby Carsington Water. The attractive, traditional market towns of Belper, Ashbourne and Matlock are within easy reach, as are Alton Towers and the famous and historic houses of Haddon Hall and Chatsworth. Along with fishing on the River Derwent and golf nearby, this is a wonderful part of the Peaks, with plenty to do whatever the time of year.
