It was very clean and well maintained and was a gem. Parking was tricky round the back but plenty of on street parking was available. A few trips down the hill into town certainly built the glutes on the return up the hill! Highly recommend Stones restaurant and Sourdough Dave’s bakery for bread in the morning. Matlock is a lovely town and well positioned for walking (Dovedale, Edale, etc all within 30mins) or visiting Bakewell or Chatsworth House.Perfect house for a perfect trip!

Jun 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely house with everything you need perfect for non pensioners. Really lovely period property with a quirky decor. New kitchen and bathrooms that had all you need. Only issues we had were with the steps to the property as they are a bit steep and uneven for those with knee issues and my parents are in their 70's. The parking at the back is also very difficult especially trying to turn around in a very tight space. It was a long walk down or up very long hills to town which an older perosn would struggle so easier to drive. Great for myself and I would say recommend for under pension age adults. ##### Ruth J. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tara W. Aug 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location This is a beautifully put together house and it was immaculately clean throughout. Check-in was no problem and the location was great. If you are not a good walker, you might struggle with the trudge up the steep hill from Matlock to the house: we decided it meant the cheese and wine was well earned!! There is some confusion in the listing about the bedrooms: B1 is listed as having a king size bed: the picture is of the smallest room which has a small double. The other two rooms have regular-sized doubles - there is no king bed (in case that is a deal breaker for anyone).We enjoyed the welcome pack of white wine, cookies and flowers - a lovely touch. Communication with the letting company was a bit patchy in places: I asked about coffee facilities and was told it was just a kettle: in fact there was a cafetiere. I asked if there was an ice cube tray - did not get a reply to this. Finally, there was no shampoo or shower gel provided despite these being listed - the agency insisted they had been provided. These little oversights did not mar a wonderful stay in a beautiful, tranquil and well-equipped home. Thank you. ##### Tara W. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sven C.
