"A great few days break."
Super location both for visiting attractions but also a beautiful setting, very peaceful and lots of wildlife. Premises excellent in terms of cleanliness, facilities and comfort. A much appreciated welcome pack and all the utility products needed. The owner was very friendly and welcoming and was always available if needed leaving nothing to be wanted for. Easily one of the best cottages we have visited.

"I cannot fault this property, it is exactly as advertised in the pictures, with lovely, thoughtful touches."
The welcome food basket was lovely, and unlimited fire wood was great. The hosts were very welcoming and answered all the questions we had. The kitchen area is well equipped and the bedroom was also well decorated. It was cosy and practical- perfect for a relaxing break and driving further into the peak district. I would definitely book this stay again.

Great place to explore the southern Peak District, Calke Abbey and Keddleston Hall - great spaces outside the cottage to eat and relax - when the weather is good enough! Highly recommended.

"Superb stay in lovely accommodation."
High quality fittings and furnishings. Amazing welcome pack with many goodies. Peaceful surroundings as well away from the main road. Saw pheasants, hares and squirrels. No freezer facility but the owners kindly froze some ice packs for me. No recycling bins to hand. Very close to Kedleston Hall and Carsington Water where there are excellent walks, scenery and wildlife. The restaurant at Carsington Water has a great menu and excellent food.

"March Hare is well thought out and equipped to a high standard."
The thoughtful extras provided by the owners meant that we didn’t have to worry about everyday things like hand soap, tea towels and washing up liquid. Miraculously, we received fresh towels half way through the week. The welcome basket was the best and most generous I have encountered in decades of renting holiday cottages and David was an attentive and cheerful host for whom nothing was too much trouble. The cottage is situated in peaceful gardens and amongst trees, and is within reach of some good places, all of which, though, must be reached by car, since there are no walks from the door. Overall a very pleasant stay.
