  • "Very clean and comfortable accommodation in lovely quiet surroundings, ample car parking space, owner kind enough to leave cake, milk and other items which were appreciated."

    Samantha is a credit to her parents, she introduced herself and Dizzy on the evening of our arrival. She politely asked if everything was okay with the property and continued to have a lovely conversation with us. It was nice that her mum also introduced herself later. Little things like this make a memorable holiday. Thank you all

    It was lovely to meet you and thank you for your comments. We are glad you had an enjoyable stay with us and enjoyed the area. All the best. Michelle, David, Samantha & Henry. Property Owner

  • "We had an amazing stay at this property."

    It was lovely, surrounded by beautiful countryside and just what we wanted to celebrate my son and his partners belated 30th birthday. The property was very clean and well maintained. The kitchen was well equipped with crockery, utensils and best of all a dish washer which we found really useful. We had brought barbecue food with us for the Saturday evening and on arrival couldn’t find a barbecue. We contacted the owner who kindly bought us one over on the Saturday morning. She also made sure that we had a high chair too for my grandaughter. We found her to be very responsive to any messages sent. My grandaughter particularly loved Dizzy the horse and hasn’t stopped talking about him. My daughter and her partner also met the owners daughter on the day of arrival, she was very friendly and shared her knowledge of the area with them which was really helpful. We had a really lovely time and visited Matlock Bath and Bakewell during our stay. Thank you again, we definately wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you or to stay again if we are up that way in the future x

  • "Lovely property and owners very helpful with problem with heating."

    The only problem was with the shower which was very slippery and needed a mat and possibly a grab rail. Location was good with plenty of places to see. Beautiful cake for afternoon tea.

This single-storey, stone-built cottage rests within striking distance of the Peak District National Park and is surrounded by a plethora of things to see and do, making it an exceptional base for families, friends or groups of six to call home.

Access to the dwelling is gained via a gated driveway, where the spacious forecourt provides plenty of off-road parking and views of the neighbouring working farm and beyond.

At the end of a bracing day, relax and unwind into your evening within the sitting room, where the woodburning stove takes centre stage before the inviting sofas and the Smart TV, providing the entertainment.

From here, enter into the heart of the home, the spacious kitchen/diner, where the chef of the group will be delighted to find a superb range of amenities to cater to all culinary needs, as well as a washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher to serve as a helping hand.

Accompanying the country-style kitchen suite is the dining table, offering a sociable space to relish in the company of your loved ones over good food and drinks, as well as a TV to keep the little ones entertained!

As the evening draws to a close, catch your rest within one of the three bedrooms, each one designed with a touch of opulence, neutral tones and plenty of storage space to keep your things, yet the most notable feature are the stunning rural views to wake up to each morning.

Choose between a sumptuous super-king-size bedroom, a king-size bedroom and a twin bedroom, all served by a bathroom, complete with a walk in shower, basin and WC.

Wirksworth is full of character with many buildings of architectural interest, including its magnificent parish church. Independent shops sit alongside the deli, butchers and bakers with a strong local food ethic. Visitors will enjoy exploring the ancient “jitties” and courtyards of the Puzzle Gardens, along with the Heritage Centre and the delightful surrounding countryside including nearby Carsington Water, Black Rocks and the High Peak Trail. Rock climbing and cycling can be enjoyed here at every level, and there is fantastic walking all around. Well Dressing is unique to Derbyshire, and Wirksworth combines this tradition with a lively carnival in May. There is also an annual Arts festival with an amazing Art & Architecture Trail in September, showcasing contemporary art and international performers of every kind. With an art deco independent cinema and a range of places to eat there is plenty to entertain. The town offers a leisure centre with a climbing wall and a small trainer swimming pool, The Eco Centre, The National Stone Centre and the Mount Cook Adventure Centre. The weekly market and monthly farmers' market provide local produce and crafts.
