Guests say
Sitch Farm is a well-received cottage in Matlock, praised for its great location, cosy and comfortable ambience, and cleanliness. Guests enjoyed the beautiful garden, local walks, and thoughtful touches like cake and prosecco. Some mentioned the property being dark with low ceilings, but overall, the experience was positive with many looking to return.
Guests consistently noted the property as spotless and clean, indicating high standards of cleanliness.
The cottage's location is highly regarded for its proximity to Matlock, local attractions, and the Peak District, making it an ideal base for exploring.
The property is described as cosy and comfortable with excellent beds, though some guests noted low ceilings and the property being cold at night.
Facilities are generally good, with well-equipped kitchens and comfortable outdoor seating areas. However, better lighting was suggested, and the tight driveway turn was a minor concern.
The owner's thoughtfulness is evident through welcome gifts like wine, cake, and Christmas decorations. While these gestures are warmly appreciated, they are not guaranteed for every stay.

We had a wonderful week at Sitch Farm. The cottage was just as we expected and it was great to have the off street parking. There are some lovely walks close by.

This is a fabulous property. So clean and well-equipped. Thanks so much for the Christmas tree and decorations up - wi th the fire on it felt so warm and homely on such a stormy weekend. Perfect place for our family birthday celebrations and close to lots of places (though we barely ventured out!). Great dog walk straight from the front door. Highly recommend and we hope to return.
