What our customers say about their holidays

  Arrived in the rain and it took us ten minutes to get the key pad to work but managed it eventually.

  An easier solution would have been welcome. Once inside the welcome pack of Prosecco, cakes, bread, milk all very much appreciated as was the Happy birthday banner and the Fresh Flowers. Well equipped kitchen including a chair for a youngster, tea bags, coffee, washing up liquid etc. A Cheese knife and more pint glasses would help as would a washing machine, particularly if staying for a week. Very comfortable lounge with a large log burner. Great supply of games and DVD’s as well as a large TV. The downstairs bedroom would benefit from a wardrobe, it’s designed for two adults but nowhere to hang clothes. Maybe a wardrobe in place of the bookshelf. A working radiator would have been nice, the electric heater was ok but not very effective. The upstairs bedrooms were very nice with comfortable beds, great views and the main bedroom had a fantastic walk in wardrobe. The main bathroom was very well equipped with a great shower although one of the light bulbs in the shower cubicle was not working. Lovely views and there appeared to be a great garden area but not for us in November! Met the owner on arrival and was very welcoming. Good location for accessing Peak District attractions and walks and nice pub in the village. Overall, a convenient, well equipped, warm, cottage ideal for a short break and family celebration.

  The cottage was lovely.

  A peaceful, beautiful setting and close to various places - 20min to Matlock Bath, 30min to Alton Towers. It was exceptionally clean and the owner had provided all the essentials - dishwasher tablets, kitchen roll, washing up liquid etc. She had also, very kindly left a bottle of prosecco and home made cake - a lovely touch. Good blackout curtains in bedrooms, so great for kids. Upstairs double could however do with a floor to ceiling mirror on the wall. Highly recommend the The Cock Inn at Mugginton. 5 min drive, food excellent and lovely restaurant with reasonable prices. Only slight negative is the fact there is only one main bathroom (shower) which is upstairs and as far away as it could be from downstairs bedroom. Ok if staying with close family, but may be an issue if staying as a group of friends. With a re-jig, the cloakroom toilet and under stairs could be made into a small shower room, which would make the cottage more appealing. I would definitely stay again if requiring accommodation in the area.

  There are only good things to say about this property.

  We stayed at the weekend for my partners 40th with our family and it was perfect. It had everything we needed. It was spotless and extremely clean and looked beautiful, even better in person. The beds and sofas were so comfy and there was plenty of room. My 1 year old loved the space to run around and was kept entertained with the huge tele in the lounge watching all her Disney favourites. The area was lovely and very quiet and was close to local shops and pubs which was really handy. We were able to have a lovely walk even though it was so cold. We've said we would definitely come back but maybe in summer when the weather is better so we can make more use of the summer house, bbq and the lovely garden. I would 100% recommend this property. Sally and David were very helpful too and were a text or phone call away if needed. Thanks for a great stay

  This is a very comfortable and spacious house with a very large, fully open plan kitchen, dining area and sitting room downstairs.

  The house is extremely well equipped, with a very high-spec kitchen, enormous tv, and loads of storage. The new and very substantial summer house in the garden was very useful for us as a place to play our musical instruments without bothering those in the open plan area, or, hopefully, the neighbours. The house is in a cul de sac in a modern housing estate, so if you're looking for rural or characterful, this isn't it; but the area is quiet and makes a handy base for trips into the Peak District. You can walk up a large moorland hill straight from the front door. The weather was getting colder but the house was warm, with lovely underfloor heating, and there's a very enjoyable large bath as well as excellent showers. The owner was helpful and friendly. Altogether, we had a very comfortable and pleasant week.

  We loved the peaceful and safe location.

  We have three children and felt safe to go out for walks in the local area. The garden views from the property are beautiful and the local area had fields with animals including sheep and horses that the children loved. Jo and John were extremely helpful and went above and beyond to resolve any request or query raised. The property is child friendly with a child seat provided at the dining table. The bread, chocolate cake, flowers and a few other goodies that were provided upon arrival made for an extra special welcome! The sitting room was extremely cosy with its soft furnishings and long sofas. We are a family of five and I can confidently say that we all loved our stay and would definitely return to Woodlands farm! I would highly recommend this property to stay for a family holiday.
