...we felt at home the minute we walked through the door. It was beautifully decorated, comfortable, spotlessly clean and had absolutely everything we needed for our stay. The hot tub was perfect for relaxing at the end of the day. Would definitely come back!

3. It had more than everything we needed for a fantastic stay. It was clean, the bed was lovely and comfy and the wood burner added to the cosy feeling of the cottage. Location was good for walks into Matlock and Matlock Bath. The cottage was a bit cold when we got there but a quick phone call to the owners and the temperature was better (not particularly happy we couldn't control this ourselves and felt we weren't trusted to do so). The hot tub was the best we've ever used, (we have used lots!) big, lovely temperature, powerful jets and so sparkly clean. We used it a lot and it made our stay super relaxed. But if you want privacy this isn't the place for you. We were overlooked in the hot tub by both the neighbours, and the front of the house had nothing to stop people looking directly in to the front door and the big window of the living room unless you shut the curtains, then it was dark. All it needed was net curtains or similar. Because of the lack of privacy, we would not come back to this property.

It was a great sized property for myself and my husband and had so many great touches and additional extras (e.g. hot water bottles, games, Tupperware, oil, salt and pepper) which made it so easy to be away and help us out when we had forgotten things. The property was comfortable and quiet and we loved the hot tub (this is one of the reasons we booked here). We drove into Matlock for dinner and loved the Remarkable Hare and the Smoke House. Parking was also straight forward. Thank you for a brilliant stay.
