Great cottage and very spacious with all you need. Lovely food at Gate Inn and walks close to accommodation.

Very over priced property. My Mum and Dad arrived Friday morning to find no hot tub there (this was the reason we booked it). I ring the owner to be told it was £185 extra, if she could get one. 8 people were going and expecting a hot tub so I agreed to pay in cash but wasn't happy. The hot tub was only comfortable for 5 people, so we couldn't all get in at the same time. Nothing on the site said extra for the hot tub. There is even a photo of one on the gallery. The house needed a refurbishment and a good clean. Kitchen utensils were old and dirty. We took our dog with us, but over the weekend had 2 other dogs running on the garden, so was unable to let my own dog out. My son had to take one of the dogs home as it was there a while. Also a very grumpy neighbour next door complained my dog was barking in the night, but it wasn't my dog. I explained about the dogs at the back of us, but he wouldn't have it. So finished our holiday off arguing with the very rude man next door. Will definitely not be going back.

The cottage was beautiful, very spacious for 6 of us and tastefully decorated and furnished. Everything we needed and more. Spectacular views and surrounding area lovely. We had a fabulous time celebrating a birthday and the glorious weather was an added bonus. We would definitely want to stay again and would highly recommend the cottage.

Beautiful house, plenty big for 8 adults (10 if you use the fouton.) more spacious than we thought it would be by looking at house online.Spotlessly clean and very comfortable accommodation. We lit the fire which created a cozy atmosphere in the evening. Lovely big kitchen diner, well equipped, dishwasher tables provided but there was no washing up liquid for hand washing items not suitable for dishwasher. Tea and coffee and a pint of milk provided for a welcome cuppa. Ample parking for 4 cars and lovely space outside for dining if weather permitted. We couldn't find the remote control for the large tv in the living room but it was a blessing in disguise. There's a washing machine and a second fridge and a freezer in utility room which would be very useful for families and those staying longer than we did. I would love to stay again, can't really fault the house. Thank you for a lovely weekend stay

Location was perfect for a quiet he away. Thoroughly enjoyed the long walks, the waterfalls were beautiful as were the black rocks. The cottage was amazing, perfect place to have a week relaxing. Being 10 mins away from Matlock was the best as Sainsbury's and coop are close, but not close enough that the traffic effects outsife the cottage! Overall, a really great stay, would definitely go to orchard cottage again!

Lovely spacious cottage and garden in a great location. 2 local pubs in walking distance. Easy distance to Bakewell, Matlock and Carsington Water.

We enjoyed staying at Orchard Cottage, it is a lovely property and is well situated near Matlock. We had a family weekend for a birthday celebration, ate at The Tavern in Tansley, (excellent,) and had great days out at Carsington Water and Gulliver's Kingdom. The cottage is well equipped, but only one shower was difficult for a party of 10, even though there are 2 bathrooms. Thank you for the welcome pack and for providing high chairs. Altogether a great weekend.

We had a very good stay in the cottage during our visit to Matlock for our daughter's wedding. The cottage was well equipped (although there was no hand soap in the bathrooms!)and comfortable.

Stayed here with friends and the house had everything we needed. Very comfortable. The only downside was running out of hot water when showering. Would recommend

The property was spacious, clean, well decorated and comfortable - much better than the photos on the website show: the dining room is open plan from the kitchen, which was great - with doors opening on to the patio. The lounge is large and upstairs the beds were really comfortable with great mattresses and lovely linen. There is a separate laundry room with a large freezer and an extra fridge as well as a washing machine. It's in a great location, really near loads of stuff to do with kids, and the Tansley Tavern nearby is a lovely pub to eat in. There were a number of small things that needed fixing in the house - but we contacted the owner about them when we came back and so am sure they are all fixed now! (She would have done it during the holiday, but they weren't big enough for us to worry about it during the week we were there). The only major issue for us was the neighbouring (friendly) dog leaving mess in the garden - it was messy when we arrived, and once we cleared it up the dog came back again. I have alerted the owner to this issue and she said she was going to sort it out. So with those things solved, I would definitely recommend this cottage for a family holiday and would have then given it 5 stars.

We were a group of family and friends who met up to attend a funeral locally. We had a lovely stay and felt very much at home as the cottage was very comfortable and warm and would recommend for holidaymakers as it is in a very good location.

The house is lovely, very nicely decorated throughout. Clean and well equipped. The bedrooms had comfortable beds. Twin bedrooms worked well for our party. The living areas were great for our get together. Great size lounge and kitchen/dining room. It was handy to have a utility room, cloakroom, and the little extras already in the house - milk, tea, coffee, kitchen roll, cling film, logs for the fire etc.. Would definitely recommend the house. The photos don't do it justice. The only downside is that the water pipes for the electric shower run through one of the twin bedrooms. I think the pump is near that bedroom, therefore its quite noisy when someone uses the shower or hot water. However, it wasn't a problem, we just didn't have showers too early in the morning. We had dinner at The Tavern pub down the road which was very nice. Good location to visit the surround towns/ villages.
