August 2019

“The accommodation was clean, comfortable and well appointed with good size bedrooms and a well equipped kitchen.”

On arrival the owners left us a bottle of wine, which was a nice touch. Being located at the end of a cul-de-sac, it was nice and quiet too. The property was within easy reach of the M1 and in a great location for visiting local attractions such as the Crich Tramway museum, Chatsworth House, Bakewell and the Peak District. The Peacock restaurant, which is only a few hundred yards away, was really excellent and there were many other good pubs and restaurants in the wider area. All in all it ...

The Peacock restaurant, which is only a few hundred yards away, was really excellent and there were many other good pubs and restaurants in the wider area. All in all it added up to a very pleasant stay and was fantastic value for money.

Mr Brodie June 2019

“We as a family thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience at Linbery.”

We could not have picked a better location to enjoy the surrounding area. The house itself was fantastic with our 13 year old enjoying his own wee bit space in the loft. I would strongly recommend Linbery to anyone. We only managed to get as far as Bakewell as there was so much to do. The local pub "The Butchers Arms was excellent. The meals were hearty and very reasonable. The Pesto across from the house was nice but a little pricey. We hope to return soon to further explore the area as it appealed to us all.

Excellent three "C"s comfort, cleanliness and convenience. Comfortable lounge suite for relaxing. Good quality bed mattresses for sleeping. Instant hot water shower with a non slip bath mat. Powerful hair dryer. Very well equipped kitchen with even plasters for sore walking heels and cling film for picnic sandwiches.

The cottage is very clean and comfortable with everything you might need. It is located close to the town of Alfreton and the Derbyshire countryside which we wanted to visit during our vacation. I don't think I will ever stay in Hotels again after this great experience.

Joyroswoods September 2014

“Lovely bungalow”

This was a really comfortable bungalow had a lovely week the surrounding area was really nice. Carsington water well worth a visit for a nice flat walk, and the Tramway museum was a nice trip. The bungalow could do with the paving outside sorting out my elderly mother found it a bit unsteady underfoot. but that is the only moan.

- Joyroswoods, September 2014
Mr Oxley August 2014

“The bungalow was very clean and well appointed.”

It is ideally situated for visiting anywhere in the Peak District. Despite being easily accessible it is in a quiet location making it pretty much ideal all round. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and I would not hesitate to recommend Linbery to anyone visiting the area.

- Mr Oxley, August 2014
Dr Dale July 2014

The property is really nice and perfect for a family of 4 where the kids do not mind sharing a room (in separate beds).

“There's a lot to see and learn about in the Peak District”

If your holiday is aimed at exploring the peak district and taking advantage of the heritage properties around in the area then this location is ideal for your requirements. If you like walking then don't miss the Monsal Trail and you are spoilt for choice with houses and gardens with Chatsworth,Haddon Hall and Hardwick Hall all within easy reach. For eating out there are ideal public houses in less than five minutes drive

Mr Foreman August 2012

“Good location, easy to get to with plenty of places to visit nearby.”

Accommodation was very clean and could not fault it.

- Mr Foreman, August 2012
Mrs Chapple August 2012

“It was a real home away from home.”

It was very thoughtful of the owners to provide those little things such as condiments, sticky tape, glue, sandwich bags but to name a few.

- Mrs Chapple, August 2012
Angela W July 2012

“A lovely property in an ideal location”

Linbery was a lovely property in a quiet little cul de sac, with a public house at the end of the road and another within five minute walk. We found it was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. It was a perfect location for exploring both the peaks and the potteries. Matlock was only a ten minute drive as was Critch Tram Museum. The only downside we could see with this property was the stairs upto the mezzanine which was both steep and open. There was a child gate at the top but there was no way you could fix one at the bottom to stop little ones going up. Whilst this was no problem to us it could be for anyone with children under Five.

- Angela W, July 2012
Mr Fitzgerald June 2012

“The property was a nice place to relax in, there was a good vista from the garden and 1st floor, and a couple of good local pubs.”

- Mr Fitzgerald, June 2012
Mr Robinson June 2012

“A very convenient location.”

- Mr Robinson, June 2012
Mrs Dennis May 2012

“There were pubs within walking distance for nice meals.”

The area was good for visiting parks and other local places of interest. We were visiting relatives so an added bonus they were not far away. The cottage had everything we needed so a nice relaxing holiday all round.

- Mrs Dennis, May 2012
A FlipKey verified reviewer January 2012

“A very nice bungalow in a very quiet and peaceful location.”

An ideally situated property for easy access to the beautiful Peak District. Everything that was described about this property was accurate and it more than met our expectations. I would certainly recommend this property to family and friends.
