“Everything was as described so our expectations were met in full, contributing to a most enjoyable break.”

Thank you.

Thank you.
Mrs Raynor December 2019

“A lovely, well equipped, clean and cosy cottage.”

The furniture and fittings were all high quality and modern. The photos don't really do the cottage justice. Great location for the Peak District/ Derbyshire Dales. Enjoyed walking to Matlock Bath, and the uphill walk back wasn't as steep as expected. Really pleased with our last minute find for New Year, would definitely stay here again.
Rev Nicholls November 2019

“Extremely well appointed and cosy cottage.”

Helpful and friendly owners, who allowed us to stay on the morning of our departure until a car mechanic arrived to get our car started.
Mrs Kureen October 2019

“The cottage was clean, warm and comfortable; an ideal place to return to after a day of adventures!”

We had a wonderful time during our stay here and would recommend this cottage to friends or family visiting the area.
Mrs Lee October 2019

“This is our second family holiday at Rose Cottage and we loved it.”

The cottage is so well kept and equipped. We find it's location is perfect for walking into Matlock and Matlock with several routes over the hills or on pavements. It is also well located for exploring areas further away such as Alton Towers, Dovedale and Chatsworth. We also discovered a beautiful little spot up the road called Lumsdale Falls,a centuries-old industrial area which is now a nature reserve. A gorgeous place for walking and exploring and for children to climb and play in the trees. Every evening was spent by the woodburner back at the cottage - heaven!
Mrs Akred October 2019

“We said it was home from home feeling.”

Loved the walks in the area and the local pubs.
Mr Collins August 2019

“A handy place for a base, not far from many attractions etc, and good for walking to pubs or shops.”
Mrs Gathercole August 2019

“A comfortable well equipped cottage in good location .”

Handy for all the local attractions and shops.
Mrs Bradbury July 2019

“We had such an amazing holiday, Rose cottage was perfect, as Well as having everything we needed in it and it being so clean and comfy ,it was also in the perfect area as it is in the middle of everything!”

It was just perfect!.
Mr Watson June 2019

“Lovely Cottage, Lovely area.”

We could find no faults and thoroughly enjoyed our week at Rose Cottage!!
Mr Davis May 2019

“Lovely cottage, everything you need in the kitchen and warm and comfortable ...”

Lovely cottage, everything you need in the kitchen and warm and comfortable great location and quiet too we were very happy staying there for the week
Mr Richardson May 2019

“Beautiful cosy cottage, high standard through out, quiet area.”

White Lion inn, lovely pub with good food close by. Great communication from the owners. Excellent location plenty places to visit within 30min drive. Well recommended. One thing to remember is the Dales are very hilly.
Mr Curtis April 2019

“Lovely cottage in great location.”

Small but perfectly formed and well appointed with nice log burner. Lots to do nearby. Owner was kind enough to post a top that we accidentally left behind
Ms Day October 2018

“Lovely comfortable cottage, very clean and well equipped.”

Owners made sure we were okay and had everything we needed which was very good. Would definitely recommend and stay here again. Thank you for a lovely stay!
Ms Reed September 2018

“We had a lovely stay in Rose Cottage.”

It was clean, comfortable, warm and cosy and very well thought out in terms of what was provided and the information given by the owners. The owners called to make sure we'd arrived and were happy with everything and were very responsive when we couldn't work out how to open a window! It was a 10 minute (steep downward) walk to the Heights of Abraham cable car base directly from the house (HoA definitely worth a visit) and from there a further 5 in to Matlock Bath. The steep walk to High Tor was worth the effort for the wonderful views. We visited Castleton and the blue john cavern, Bakewell, Matlock, Heanor (grreat antique centre) and Cromford Mill and canal amongst other places, all within easy reach. Lungs feel expanded, spirits restored!
Mrs Pickard August 2018

“The cottage was brilliant, had everything we could have needed.”

Cookies & Milk for arrival along with a starter pack for wood burning fire. Nice central base for visiting attractions or going on walks. We did bring bikes but decided the roads were too small/hilly for us, never mind our 8 year old daughter, but a 20 minute drive gets you to Carsington Water, brilliant for riding. 5 minutes drive gets you to Lumsdale Falls which is great for walking/adventure.
Mrs Wilson August 2018

“Arrived after 6 hours due to weather conditions and accidents, generally takes 3 hours.”

Crisps all over lounge floor, needed hoovering, left until next day. Unable to get dishwasher working, purchased salt & dishwaher aid as these were indicated as required, but to no avail, spent rest of holiday washing up. External bins not emptied from previous week, put bins out on wednesday, still not emptied. Had requested beds set as two doubles, but were set up as 2 singles & a very small uncomfittable double. Used grill on day 3, smoked the house out, not been cleaned from previous tenant. Overal very homley cottage, but cleaning service letting it down. Have family locally, but will not stay here again *** Owner Response *** We pride ourselves in providing our guests with accommodation that of a high standard of cleanliness and presentation as our previous guests have consistently reflected in their comments. We were therefore shocked to read the feedback on your stay at Rose Cottage after your visit and apologies for any inconvenience caused. Clearly there was an issue with the cleaning of the Cottage and bedding arrangements and we have addressed these issues with the cleaning company concerned in particular the fact that they had not removed the waste left by the previous guests. If you had advised us at the time we could have dealt with the issues to your satisfaction. As for the problem with the dishwasher we have tested this appliance and it is working fine if the instructions in the welcome pack are followed. Thank you for staying.

“Our second summer at Rose Cottage and it was just as fabulous as the first time.”

The Cottage is in the most lovely part of England. Thank you.
Mr Davidson June 2018

“Rose Cottage was an excellent base for touring the Peak District.”

Within a short distance of the cottage are many places of interest to visit. The Cottage itself was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We visited The Heights of Abraham, Cromford Canal and Mills, Lea Gardens (great for rhododendrons), Kedleston Hall, Bakewell, and Strutts North Mill museum in Belper( one of the best guided tours we have ever had). We then finished off our week with a day at the RHS Chatsworth Flower Show. We will definitely be going back to the Peak District.

“Weekend break”

A peaceful weekend away with my 15 year old daughter we both loved the cottage amazing location. The cottage itself is finished to a high standard, clean and very cosy on the cold winter evening. Nice country pub just up the road for a meal and only a short walk into Matlock Bath although a steep climb back up hill. Would definitely recommend and hope to visit again.

“Cosy, well equipped and very clean cottage”

This cottage is perfectly modernised. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Cosy living area with woodburner (basket of logs included). The beds were super comfy. Decent off road parking for one car. Cannot fault it. Location-wise, it is just outside Matlock and Matlock Bath. It is opposite a footpath that runs down a hill to the Heights of Abraham cable cars and the railway station at Matlock Bath (15 minutes downhill, longer on the way back up!). A hilltop walk leads off this toward Matlock town (about 30 minutes of quite steep walking). You can also walk into Matlock via the quiet road from the house. Chatsworth is about 20 minutes away by car and Alton Towers about 50 minutes. Plenty of other lovely places of interest within a short driving distance. There is a cosy pub within 10 minutes' walk called The White Lion - really yummy food and family friendly. Plenty of other pubs in Matlock and Matlock Bath. We had such a lovely holiday here. The cottage was the perfect place to come back to after long walks and we would thoroughly recommend it. The owners have obviously put a lot of effort and thought into it and it is much appreciated.
