What our customers say about their holidays

• Denise - Verified booking

  The perfect getaway.

  As with every stay there are pros and cons. I'll start with the cons - And now the pros - even before check in communication with the host were very personal and well thought through. We've driven through the location many times, so we knew where we were going. Key pick up was easy, the receptionist was friendly and helpful, and we found our room easily enough. From the moment we opened the door we knew we were in for a real treat. The apartment is furnished to a high standard, with wonderful little details like heat protector for straighteners and a welcome pack. The living space has a very modern feel but is also very comfortable and cosy. The kitchen is well equipped with high quality appliances and accessories, we had everything you could possibly need. The bedroom is again very modern but extremely comfortable, the bed is like sleeping on a cloud. We both slept really soundly. There is ample space for clothing and luggage. The shower room again is finished to a high standard with all matching accessories. Fantastic shower, very powerful and the towels were lovely and soft. The balcony just adds that finishing touch. We had lovely weather so sitting outside with our morning cuppa was the icing on the cake. Really enjoyed our stay we left feeling thoroughly refreshed. We cannot recommend or rate this place highly enough we shall be returning customers.

  This is a very good property, and the space is great.

  It was well-positioned in the centre of Buxton, easy to park two cars, and extremely comfortable except for one bedroom (hence losing one mark). The house is very well equipped. It was easy to park, and Morrisons is only a walk away. You could have a good holiday here without a car, as everything is so close. Of the three double bedrooms, one has the boiler in, with a sign to not switch it off. However, having the boiler on meant the room roasted, and was extremely difficult to sleep in. Also, the boiler timer ticked incessantly all night, and anyone switching a tap on made a very loud noise in the pipes in that room. You could also hear any noise in the room below from there. My son and his wife who were in the room did switch the boiler off so they could sleep, which meant we had no hot water to shower in the morning until he woke up and we could switch it on again. Inside the house was very clean. However, outside, the gate to the neighbour's back yard was broken and off its hinges (and we had a dog with us), and the passage between the two houses was scruffy, particularly compared to others in the row, with broken slates, etc. on the ground (hence one mark off for cleanliness). Overall, we were very pleased with our stay, which we felt was better than our expectations.

  A lovely cottage in an ideal location for exploring the Peak District, plenty of walks from the doorstep.

  Would definitely consider a return visit. However, this was all let down with zero communication from the owner with no information pack or any instructions. There was also no number provided for to report any issues. Whilst the property has clearly recently been updated with an excellent bathroom and kitchen, there were a number of small but frustrating issues i:e both bulbs had gone on the oven extractor fan, the bulb had gone on the bathroom mirror and the remote for the tv soundbar didn’t work, probably a battery issue. The latch on garden gate was also hanging off meaning it didn’t fully close and was an issue for the security of dogs who could easily get out. The outside light at the front wasn’t working, again a simple fix but no spare bulbs and nobody to tell about it. Feel petty mentioning and only giving 3 out of 5 but when added together all of the above left us with a pretty negative view when it could have been so much better with minimal effort.

  Perfectly located apartment within the Peak District.

  On 1st walking into 48 Rock Mill we were extremely impressed on how immaculately presented the apartment was. All furnishing were extremely comfortable & of a very high standard, we felt that we could've stayed longer. To add that all the other communal areas within Rock Mill were kept to an extremely high standard. Boot room with heated lockers, dog wash station, also a full jar of dog treats (yes, our dog was spoilt), poo bags were also to hand, boot wash, bike wash & store plus outdoor seating with bbq area., children's play area, this all in all made it a perfect stay for the great outdoors. We also loved the fact that we received messages checking in with us to ensure everything was OK, plus receiving recommendations of places to visit. Such a great base to explore from, we will definitely be back.

  Really enjoyed our stay here.

  Warm, bright, comfortable , nicely furnished, stylish apartment.Little balcony if you are lucky with the weather. The kitchen has a combined oven and microwave. Took a little getting used to but the instructions are in one of the cupboards and we had no problems. Good range of quality utensils, pans, baking trays etc. Loved the underfloor heating in the shower room .Good location , in a village with a pub, cafe with early bar, fish and chips and Indian restaurant. The Spar at Calver has 'Cook' meals , a butcher and proper bread . Pricey but very convenient. Near to Eyam and the lovely Padley Gorge.It was great having E V chargers available and for hikers there are bike and boot washes and heated lockers to dry clothes. Would definitely stay here again if we return to the Peaks.
