What our customers say about their holidays

• Jennifer - Verified booking

  We actually had a pleasant holiday, ( 3 adults, 2 teenagers and a dog).

  However, on returning home, I received a phone call from an angry woman, presumably the owner, having a go at me for our dog leaving dirty paw marks on the duvet cover in one bedroom. I had left a note apologising for this, a small error in not fully pushing the door closed. There were no other complaints from her, and I think her attitude was unreasonable. I offered to pay for a new one if it did not come out in the wash but she clearly wasn’t even listening . She told us to never come there again and put the phone down. I have written to them complaining about their attitude, and also pointing out to them that the cottage had some faults too, such as the sandwich toaster, being unwashed and having cooked cheese all stuck to it, as well as one radiator not working and the bathroom hot tap, being broken.

  This is a fantastic rustic cottage on a working farm.

  It can therefore smell a bit fresh at times. This was a very small price to pay. Lots of space inside and out. Watching the cows come and go from milking in the morning and evening sun was delightful. The property is right on the Tissington trail which is perfect for walking, cycling and running and can take you all the way to Buxton. Dovedale is very near but was very busy near the main car park. Go all the way to the North end and the ice-cream at Mill Dale is worth the walk. Great communications with the owner. A jug of fresh milk from the farm was a really nice surprise in our arrival. WiFi was a bit temperamental but this didn't bother the adults! Highly recommend.

  We really enjoyed our stay at Church Farm Cottage and visiting the surrounding countryside and South Peaks/Dales which it is ideally situated for exploring.

  There was a warm welcome from the owner on arrival and some good advice on local walks etc. The cottage was comfortable, cosy, clean and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The enclosed gardens were ideal for our chocolate Labrador and the best we have experienced. There are good walks right from the front door, through the yard and onto the fields beyond. A short walk away is the Shire Horse Pub that is dog friendly and serves good pub food. Ashbourne also had many dog friendly pubs that also served very good food. We enjoyed our stay so much that we will be booking to stay again next year. Mike, Jan and Poppy.

  The cottage was everything we hoped for.

  It was warm and cosy with the lovely open fire which was great as it snowed. It was spotlessly clean,well equipped and all the linens and furnishings were of the best quality. The garden was secure for our dog and the views were very relaxing as was the peace and quiet.Walks were plentiful nearby and the church was very interesting.The local pub was just a short walk away. Lois was very friendly and helpful and we had everything we needed. We enjoyed it so much we have already booked for several weeks in the summer and would highly recommend this cottage to anyone for a home from home holiday in the fabulous Peak District

  Stayed in the cottage just for a mini getaway in the middle of March.

  The description did not disappoint. Directions were great and just off the A515. Location was brilliant for the local pub, local walks, a trip to Dovedale, Dimmingsdale walks and a trip into Ashbourne for tea and cake while I left hubby to watch the last day of the Six Nations Rugby!!. Cottage had everything we needed. The enclosed garden was secure to let our dog run in and out. In the evenings when the weather turned very slowly and rainy we put the log fire on and out our feet up. Thank you to Mrs Lynch for making us welcome.
