We stayed in Derwent cottage with two other couples and we all absolutely loved it! All the double bedrooms were a good size and the open plan kitchen and sitting room were great for our evening meals. We had a bbq one evening looking out over the lovely fields full of sheep! Joanne even left us our own tennis rackets and table tennis bats! We absolutely loved the games room and spent hours playing table tennis one evening. Great walks right on the doorstep around Carsington Water and it’s only a short drive to some lovely villages and walking routes around the Peak District. Thank you so much for a lovely stay Joanne!

A lovely relaxing stay in a great location. Very clean and great facilities. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you for a wonderful stay from start to finish Tim and Joanne. What a stunning setting the cottage is in and we felt very relaxed whilst in the cottage itself. The ping pong room is a fun little addition and the quality of the fittings in the cottage itself is a testament to the owners' eye for detail. In my opinion ambassadors for HomeAway! Thanks again, Mat

Cottages were well appointed, spacious and very comfortable for long or short stay. Each has parking at the door, and a back private garden patio overlooking a pond and fields beyond. The common games room had a great selection of books, DVDs and a ping pong table. Stainsborough is a beautiful proprty with lovely gardens, and is so convenient to Wirksworth and all the sights of Derbyshire. Tim and Joanne were very friendly easy going hosts, who as a bonus sell their own excellent ,and very good value, French wine. We will definitely be back for future visits to our daughter and family nearby.

Very nice property, lovely to have playroom and tennis court, and easy access to the outdoors. Could do with slightly brighter lights in the living room, for reading in the evenings!

A wonderful short stay- a beautiful cottage and well equipped, with very understanding and kind owners. Lots to do in the local area- we could certainly have stayed a lot longer! The local area is beautiful, both children and adults loved it. Recommended most highly!!

Excellent, high quality accommodation in a marvellous setting. Games room great facility for some good old fashioned family fun especially when weather not behaving. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is due to lack of mirrors in the particular cottage we stayed in x

Location, accommodation, facilities and hosts all brilliant. Location, could be in the middle of nowhere, south facing patio, overlooking the pond, fields and countryside, only 5min drive into Wirksworth, with a well stocked co op, or 5mins to Carrsington water, for walks, bike trail, restaurant and cafe, pay to park or walk from cottage across the fields. Accommodation, we stayed in the Derwent cottage, 2 downstairs bedrooms, one loft room with restricted headroom and a little warm, beding and towels excellent quality, comfortable seating, good cooking facilities and equipment. Facilities, the games room is such a bonus, young and old can enjoy the table tennis, hundreds of dvds, books and games and the more energetic have the tennis court to use, all set in the fantastic grounds of the hall. Hosts, Tim and Joanne couldnt have been better, friendly and helpful,a lovely couple.
