“A great week staying at Hope Road.”

We didn’t have a car, just legs and our bikes but it was a great location to start adventures in the local area. The train adds a lot of flexibility for visiting nearby towns and villages too.

We didn’t have a car, just legs and our bikes but it was a great location to start adventures in the local area. The train adds a lot of flexibility for visiting nearby towns and villages too. The property itself was everything we needed and we particularly enjoyed a fire in the woodburner as the nights got colder. We saw some reviews about the house being a bit worn out, but we thought it was just great and would recommend. I want to go back already!

“We said we’d be back and back we came.”

We enjoyed the cottage even more than last time. The open fire was a real hit, such a comfortable and spacious living room, with great views of Back Tor and the moon at nights. The kids loved the smaller bedroom which they made their play room, with views of the Hope Valley train line and the stunning back drop of The Nab to boot, they were entertained for hours spotting trains! The two double bedrooms are comfortable and spacious, a lovely big wardrobe in one and the attic room is my favourite, a lovely comfy chair for curling up with a book and the gable window which opens out like a dolls house onto the views of Back Tor, Hollins Cross and the whole range is breath taking. The main bathroom has a lovely big bath tub which the kids and I relished and both showers in both bathrooms have fantastic pressure. The kitchen is fabulously well equipped and I particularly enjoyed the island as it meant I could cook whilst still being part of what was going on at the dining table. The back garden on a sunny day even in Autumn is a delicious sun trap and a great place to unwind and relax after a rewarding walk with the soothing sound track of the passing river. The house was clean, tidy and had clearly been adapted to meet Covid standards. The hive heating system intuitive and so easy to use, lovely to be able to modify the temperature so effortlessly. The neighbours on both sides are friendly and the local village of Edale, apart from being a short and beautiful walk away has a fabulous grocery that sells all essentials. 13 Hope road is a firm family favourite, we intend to come back next year and hopefully for many more to come.

“Lovely location, stunning views, cottage well equipped, useful information in folder in cottage, however unable to re program central heating unfortunately, so temperature inside was 18.”

0c, 18.5c, and 19c all week which was a bit chilly for wet October, luckily we had the fire and bath to warm us up after long cycle rides and walks in the peaks, and layers of clothing, hats and gloves

“Upon arrival it was clear that the property had not been deep cleaned, as per the regulations for COVID-19.”

The bedding and linen had not been changed, the towels were scattered throughout the bedrooms all used, the toilet hadn’t been cleaned nor the kitchen or the rest of the property. We then later found out the central heating did not function so was very cold, we went to have a bath and the pop up plug was broken. So we were no able to use the bath facility, only the shower worked. This had an impact on our holiday and we would never go back. All false promises from yourselves and the owner.

- Mrs Brown, September 2020

The property had not been cleaned. It is true that due to a misunderstanding by my cleaner, the cottage had not been cleaned when the guests arrived. I apologised unreservedly to the guests and arranged a thorough clean immediately, on a Sunday evening. I was texted by the guests and advised how thoroughly cleaned the cottage was. I also advised that I would waive the fee for the first day. The heating did not work. As soon as the guest informed me of this, I asked housekeeper to go round. I heard nothing further until approximately 24 hours later when the guests sent me a further text saying the heating was still not working. I rang him, apologised, and said I would get a plumber in. The plumber went the following day, and advised me that the heating was fine, but he had bled a couple of the upstairs radiators as a precaution.The bath plug did not work. I again asked the plumber to look at this. He said it was working. I believe however that there may have been a misunderstanding as I visited the cottage after these guests had left and it was not working. The plumber has now resolved this. Sykes owner relations

“We had a lovely short break at 13 Hope Road.”

The house was perfect for walking from and very comfortable. A few more saucepans would have been good and we couldn't find any kitchen scissors, but these are minor details as we had such a peaceful relaxing stay.

- Ms Schofield, August 2020
Mr Hollebon August 2020

“Excellent place.”

Very comfortable and clean. Superb location for walk up MamTor. Minor points: A few of the plates and cups were chipped and need replacing. A few light bulbs need replacing.

“Fantastic location and very pleasant cottage.”

There are a few minor repairs needed but nothing that caused us any concern. We would certainly go again.

“The cottage is spacious, light and well located.”

We enjoyed the local pubs and the very close walks. The fire was a great addition as was the fully equipped and clean kitchen. We would stay again in the future.

“We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful and spacious cottage, such a pleasent change from the smaller more pokey cottages that you find.”

This modern and well equipped cottage was a hit with all the family, my mother in law who came to stay one night had the whole top floor to herself and said it was the best shower she’d ever had! My kids shared the little single bedroom and turned the nook under the stairs into their den. My wife and I slept like a dream in the masterbedroom, the bathroom was made for us, my wife likes to have a bath, and what a bath it is and I like to shower so it fitted our needs perfectly. The roomy and cosy living room invited nights watching the log fire or a family film. The kitchen was fabulously equipped and again roomy. If the inside wasn’t already exceeding our expectations the views from both sides of the house are stunning. We could have spent all day just in the cottage we were so happy with it but there were so many fab walks from the door of the cottage, to Edale or Bak Tor, a must with us is feeding the Ducks at Castleton and taking in the views on a sunny day, of which we had plently, from Mam Tor. We love this particular valley of the Peak District and want to come back to 13 Hope Road next October half term and for as long as the kids want to holiday with us! Thank you for a truly magical and memorable week in this home from home.

“The cottage is slightly remote in that you cannot easily walk to a pub or restaurant (narrow road, no footpath) so you need to drive everywhere.”

But in a nice quiet location, great views front and back. Lots of space inside (we stayed as a party of 5 adults) and the kitchen is well appointed with everything you need. The sitting room is large and comfortable. Plenty of piping hot water. We do feel a few points are worth a mention though: Lack of hanging/storage space in the bedrooms, especially the small bedroom, where there was absolutely nothing to hang or store clothes until we found a hanging rack in a storeroom and put it together. A couple of chests of drawers would not go amiss, otherwise you live out of your suitcase. The dustbins for all the cottages are all lined up outside, but not marked, so we had no idea which bins belonged to no13, and which were for recycling/ non recycling etc. Surely would not hurt to put the house number on the bins, and mark which bin is for which refuse. Otherwise everything just gets put in whichever bin has the most space, probably next doors.. There does seem to be a leak from the first floor shower which drips down to the kitchen wall. Looks like it has been ongoing for a while. That said, it is a period cottage with lots of character and we had a great week there, it has all you need (apart from storage space in the bedrooms), we really liked the heated floor in the kitchen.

Mr Jenkins May 2019

“The cottage was set in a lovely location and was a superb location from which to explore the surrounding countryside.”

The views were great. The cottage was well equipped and easily accommodated 4 adults. The bed on the top floor was uncomfortable and the mattress needs replacing as it was very soft as noted by previous occupants. The pillows and duvets were also of varying qualities and thicknesses. The cottage had been nicely refurbished although I think the waterfall tap in the upstairs bathroom was lacking a valve to control its flow - it was far too powerful for the small sink. Overall it was a cottage that I would consider returning to for a future holiday in the Peak District.

Mr Kovar April 2019

“While the cottage as a whole was good and the location was terrific, there were three items I would like to mention.”

1. The shower did not drain. This was mentioned by previous guests in the Visitors Book, yet the no action had been taken. 2. The log fire had not been cleaned out and was completely full of ash. On cleaning and building it did not light. Problems with the log fire had also been mentioned by previous guests but no remedial action taken. I have a log fire at home and this one needs an overhaul to work properly. 3. The mattress in the main bedroom has a large dent / impression in the middle, such that 2 people invariable roll into it during the night - not great. The number left for us to contact the owner did not work so we were unable to contact to resolve.

- Mr Kovar, April 2019

Thank you for your help. All matters that you have helpfully raised are being addressed We hope to welcome you back to the cottage again in the future. Sykes owner relations
Mrs Fox April 2019

“I would agree with the comments of the previous guests that a dog has definitely been in this property and it is not suitable for anyone with pet allergies.”

I turned the sofa cushions over to avoid sitting on the hair but quickly turned them back as the sofa has not been vacuumed for some time. The fridge wasn't working properly. Not great on a warm bank holiday weekend. We did log a call with Sykes but did not receive a response. I would say that this cottage is very well used and is in need of some attention and refreshing/repainting as it is generally shabby. The work tops are stained, the crockery is chipped,the bathrooms are a bit grimy and the mattresses are thin and worn out. It could do with a thorough clean. It seems that it had the minimum amount of cleaning between guests. There were crumbs on the kitchen surfaces and hair in the bathroom. The best thing about this cottage is the location and the views. If you are going to be out walking a lot it would still be a good choice. If you want to use it as a bolt hole and stay in you will be disappointed.

“The cottage in general and it's location were excellent.”

There was actually a washing machine which isn't mentioned on the listing which you could add. Having said that, when I used the washing machine my clothes came out covered in dog hair! The TV doesn't get a very good signal and at times is almost unwatchable, just as well we bought some DVDs with us. I don't know if this could be easily fixed by looking at the aerial. The shower on the first floor needs the outlet cleaning as it doesn't drain fast enough and during a 5 minute shower you end up standing in 2 inches of water. Also 2 of the draws in the freezer couldn't be used as they were frozen shut as the freezer needs defrosting. Other than these minor niggles which shouldn't take long to address we really enjoyed our stay.

Thank you for your feedback and we are glad you enjoyed your stay. All the matters that you have helpfully raised are being addressed. Sykes owner relations

“We specifically chose this cottage because I have a pet hair allergy and it stated in the advert that animals were not allowed.”

However, there were clearly animal hairs throughout the house and I had a very uncomfortable week. It could be more serious for someone with a more severe allergy. The cottage was generally really nice but there were issues with drainage in both showers. It would also be really helpful to have an information booklet available with such details as the WiFi password etc..

- Dr Hesdon, March 2019

Thank you for your feedback. I am very sorry that your stay was not as enjoyable as it might have been. I do have a no pet’s policy and the cottage is thoroughly cleaned before changeovers, and I shall continue with this. The other matters which you have helpfully raised are being attended to.
