“This is a fantastic cozy spacious and welcoming cottage, in a very beautiful and friendly village.”

...

The scenery and walks from the front door are great, as is the welcoming cozy village pub which servers the best sunday roasts! The cottage its self is decorated to high spec and the added games room was perfect for family fun. The cottage is equipt with all that you could need for your stay and we will most certainly be returning one day soon. Thankyou to the owners for your kindness/helpfulness, and your beautiful cottage on loan. If anyone should could to stay here.....they wont regret it.....its magical as is the surrounding area !!

“Orchard view is a lovely cottage in which to spend either a short break or an extended stay.”

The cottage is spotlessly clean and the facilities are excellent. In addition, the peaceful village of Parwich is ideal, with plenty of opportunity to walk and explore.The local pub serves very good meal and is just a few minutes' walk from the cottage. Mrs gibson, our host/owner, made us so welcome, even providing some tasty chocolate cakes on our arrival. Our family group of seven thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we will definitely pay a return visit to Orchard View!

“Great Family weekend at Parwich”

Stayed in Orchard View with the family to celebrate our Golden Wedding Anniversary. The cottage was warm and very welcoming, Phyllis called in to welcome us and left us a plate of home made cakes. The accommodation had more than enough room for our party of nine. Fully central heated plus a great wood burning stove in the sitting room, great kitchen/diner with all the utensils you would ever need. The grandchildren had a great time in the games room, allowing the adults to chill out in the sitting room. We have no hesitation in recommending this cottage set in a lovely village, great for walkers, and excellent food available at The Sycamore, only two minutes walk away.

“We had a fantastic hen party here over the weekend, mrs gosling goes above and beyond for customers!”

She is such a lovely lady! Would really reccomend staying here! It was such a lovely loccation and the pub was in perfect walking distance. We all enjoyed ourselves and cant thank you enough! Will be back and will reccomend to people! LOVED IT!!

- Miss Hope, November 2019
“The owner was lovely and kind.”

She showed us round the property and baked a cake for us to enjoy. The property was really nice and was perfect to make our weekend a special occasion for a celebration of a birthday milestone. The access to walks from the cottage was perfect and the pub in the village does the very best pie and mash. Brilliant thank you.

“Acute shortage of pillows 1 very flat one per person is not enough and there were only 2 spare ones in a wardrobe”

- Ms Fogg, October 2019

Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry you did not find the pillows comfortable. spares are left within the property and if required more can be requested. Sykes owner relations
“People should be made aware to take certain things with them ie toilet rolls as not enough were supplied,kitchen roll as there was hardly any left.”

There was no itineray left only a small piece of paper stuck to the inside of a kitchen cupboard letting you know where doctors,vets,shop and the opening times for the local pub were as the shop was in the pub so if you didnt open this door then you wouldnt know also a note to say you had to pay for any breakages.

“Excellent stay in Parwich”

Very well-kept, beautifully clean, cute cottage in a lovely village. We were welcomed and looked after. Asking how to put the heating on, Phyllis came straight round. We had everything we needed and our dog was welcome too. Easy few minutes walk to the pub and enjoyed two meals there. We were looking for somewhere to stay to go to Chatsworth flower show and this cottage was in easy reach of there and many other excellent places to visit in and around the peak district.

- Chillamum, June 2019
“A lovely cottage with all the necessary equipment.”

A great base for a wonderful weekend with friends in the beautiful Peak District!

“A lovely cottage for a weekend away!”

We had a great time here.

- Miss Bonner, March 2019
“Loved our stay in this quaint cottage in Parwich.”

Excellent for walks and in particularly dogs, small playing fields less than a minute from the property for those who don’t want to venture to far. Luckily the weather was amazing so we took advantage of the local walks. Parking was limited at the property (2 cars max) but again the playing fields had amply parking for the rest of our party to park.

- Mr Lee, February 2019
“Lovely cottage, plenty of room for eight.”

Quiet village location but not too far from Ashbourne, Bakewell and Carsington Water. Great weekend away. Definitely recommend

- Mrs Murray, January 2019
“We spent the weekend in this beautiful cottage.”

It was very comfortable and the owner who came out to meet us on our arrival was lovely and incredibly helpful. The village itself is picturesque and there are lots of lovely walks nearby. Our group consisted of four adults and five children ranging from 14 to 9 years old and this cottage suited us down to the ground. We hope to visit again as we didn't have enough time to properly explore the area and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this cottage.

- Mrs Willers, January 2019
“What a delight.”

Excellent property, so comfortable with everything we could expect. We stayed in December and our hosts had set the heating to toastie. Lovely!

- Mr Brockhurst, November 2018
“The property sleeps 9, the only table to sit & eat together comfortably seats 6!”

The knives & kitchen equipment were a little old & blunt. We had to buy a new tin opener as the old one broke. There were only small towels left for us all & only one for the week. No spare bed linen even though children were staying. No welcome notes for recycling/bins/recommendations for the area. Although owner came to explain to us when we first arrived. The photographs were deceptive & made the property appear much bigger than it was in reality. Having said all of that it was clean, comfortable & in a beautiful location.

- Ms Smith, July 2018
“Great cottage, well equipped.”

Towels, soap, toilet roll all provided. Nice village. Walks from the front door. Would definitely be happy to return.

- Mr Renshaw, July 2018

“A perfect family Birthday celebration”

We could not have found a better or more welcoming place for the whole family to celebrate my husbands' 70th birthday.We had a personal welcome from the owner who showed us all the facilities for our use, perfect for 6 adults,3 small grandchildren and new baby.The kitchen was extremely well equipped, the property very warm and cosy and the grandchildren loved having their own separate sitting room in which to play.A short walk away is the village pub where we received a very warm welcome for our celebration family meal, arranged to suit timing for the children.The pub also provides a shop for your daily needs. Our weekend passed all to quickly and we would love to return for a longer, more leisurely holiday.

“Our stay in this cottage for Christmas made a very special family get together”

Beautiful well equiped cosy cottage in an equally beautiful friendly village. Also village pub very welcoming and food very good value. Area perfect for dog walks.

- Maureen H, March 2015
“Fab location, beautiful house!”

We were met as soon as we arrived by the very friendly owner, she took us right round the property and told us about the surrounding area. The house is really well laid out with plenty of space for everyone. The utility room was really handy for dirty boots etc, and the games room went down a treat. Parwich is a beautiful little village, well located with plenty of walks and activities nearby. Thoroughly recommend this property.

“A very comfortable cottage to suit all ages within easy access o”

I arranged a suprise weekend away at Orchard View for my husbands 60th Birthday with our children and our grandson. All of the rooms are very spacious and comfortable, with good parking . Our 17 month old grandson slept very well at the cottage and he really loved the Wendy House in the back garden. The owner was very helpful, giving me information about Orchard View, Parwich and also nearby surrounding areas. We visited the local Church and the Pub which serves food and has a shop within walking distance of Orchard View. There is a childrens playground opposite the pub.The people we met at Parwich were very friendly. A very successful 60th Birthday weekend. Everyone including Flo the dog thoroughly enjoyed their stay at Orchard View. Perfect!

“Perfect family break in stunning surroundings”

We stayed here after finding the cottage on Sykes Cottages. My main criteria was somewhere peaceful, dog friendly, baby friendly...and most of all, local to a good pub! The village is hidden in Derbyshire..and driving through you get the feeling that you are isolated from the world. We found the cottage, and dived inside to escape the rain. Xmas decorations were up, and cake was waiting for us. The wood fire was stocked ready to light (a lovely touch), and it felt like home from home straight away. All the bedrooms are lovely, my parents had the master room which was beautiful with exposed beams and fireplace. We had the 4 poster room, which gave plenty of room for our travel cot. The family & single rooms were also very comfortable and pretty. Off we trundled to the pub to await the rest of our party. A proper old local boozer, with friendly folk and a roaring fire. The atmosphere was highlighted by chaps from another village bursting into the pub to entertain us with a "panto" about George and the Dragon, and the beer guzzling horse. At least I think thats what it was...blame Mr. j. Daniels... Phyliss the owner of the cottage called into the pub to greet us..a lovely touch, and I doubt there is anything that would be too much trouble for her to make your stay pleasurable. Dog walks a plenty, muddy boots a necessity. All in all..a wonderful memorable cottage for my Dads 60th birthday surprise get together.

“70th Birthday Family Gathering!”

“Great house to explore Peak District”

We were a party of 4 adults and 3 children (aged between 6 mths & 1 yr) and the house suited us perfectly. Plenty of room and a big enclosed garden. The rooms are all very good sizes and the house is in very good order. The village of Parwich is lovely with the pub & the village shop a couple of minutes away. Ashbourne is close by and is a lovely town to explore. All in all a brilliant place to stay.
