“Ideal family country cottage” Perfect location for exploring the surrounding area, within sight of The Roaches; Reservoir, Adventure Playground and good food served at the Lazy Trout Pub, all within walking distance. The cottage was ideal for our family of 12 ranging from 18mths to over 60! A warm welcome was given by the owners, nothing was too much trouble, everything we needed was availble. A thoroughly enjoyable weekend, celebrating a 40th Birthday, even the weather was on our side!

“Great facilities, comfortable cottage, lovely owner.” The cottage had everything that we needed and it was clean and cosy, as well as set in some stunning countryside. The owner was really helpful and accomodating. We would stay here again and recommend it to our friends and family.

“Amazing holiday” The accommodation is spacious with plenty of rom for all the family ( and the odd stray chicken) . We had a lovely holiday 4 kids and 6 adults

“Good value for money” Easy to find, being close to a main a road. Very friendly service and excellent panoramic views.

“Good Value for money” A lovely well equipped cottage in a quiet rural location. Very clean and cosy. Watched the cows every morning and evening on their daily commute to be milked - a lovely treat if you are a townie.

“Well equipped and well located flat” We stayed at the flat in May 2014. It was clean, spacious, comfortable and well equipped. It was only a short walk into the centre of Matlock through a very pleasant park. The provision of milk and biscuits on our arrival was a welcome touch. The flat is part of an old building converted into flats and is accessed via a set of external stairs. The flats have a dedicated car park. Although there is no car park for the sole use of this flat we had no trouble getting parked. This is a good base to explore the southern Peak District. There are good bus connections which we used to visit Bakewell and Buxton (the advantages of an OAP bus pass). The description does say that it sleeps 4 but the second bedroom is small and may be quite cramped for more than one. This didn't affect us as we did not use the second bedroom. Would recommend.

“Five Star excellence” Elder Bank turned out to be everything as stated in the brochure and more. The accomodation and location were superb. The package of "essential" groceries was very welcoming on arrival, as was the brilliant amount of local information. We throughly enjoyed the may walks and superb scenery we experienced. Everything about this holiday was excellent.

“Stunning location and comfortable accommodation” We experienced a most relaxing week in stunning surroundings. The owners were most helpful and accommodating. They were also most reassuring when faced with our vehicle being snowed in for 5 days and arranged for local farming friends to plough an escape route. We are looking forward to returning in the future.

“An all round first class house and location.” Indoor facilities first class. Bags of space without ten of us "living on top of each other" Good pub doing huge meals at good prices only walking distance away. The week we were at Ipstones was not good but the log fire with no restrictions on use of logs was a first class bonus. No shortage of facilities in the catering - loads of cooking utensils and glasses etc. All ion all a very pleasurable and memorable stay.

“review orchard view” nice cottage, all facilities provided were satisfactory and the lcle very pleasant.

“An excellent stay!” Very well placed for exploring the Peak District. Clean, smart cottage, with a very helpful and friendly owner. Would highly recommend!

“Cosy cottage in a tranquil location” We had a very warm reception from Jill, the owner, on the day we arrived. She also gave us a welcome pack of tea, coffee and biscuits. The kitchen was well-equiped and clean. The standard of cleanliness in the whole house was very good. The decor of the house was very pleasing and the beds were comfortable. The house is set in a peaceful location but is not too remote. All in all, we had a very pleasant stay and an enjoyable holiday in this part of the country.

“Location, location, location” Lovely house, well equipped, very comfortable, in a near perfect High Peaks location. Loved it! Kitchen and bedrooms (all en suite) were great, pleasant walk to village of Edale, great circular walks from the house. Minor niggle, had to go outside to pick up the wi-fi from the farmhouse. Took some finding when we arrived.

“My ideal holiday cottage.” Perfect. A beautiful and very well appointed cottage. Underbank Hall Cottage was a the perfect base for my week long holiday. Clean, tidy, and everything I could have needed was on hand. A very welcome "welcome tray" was waiting on my arrival. The added bonus was that I could take the dog as well. I really look forward to another stay during 2014.

“Warm welcome in snowy conditions” The house is very well equipped and it is conveniently placed next door to the local Spa who are also the key holders. The house is wonderfully warm and cosy. A range of Dvds / games are provided. The bedrooms are a good size. The bathroom is clean with separate shower and large bath. Parking is not a problem at all and there are lovely walks from the front door. Local pubs/shops are within walking distance.

“Garden Cottage Peak District” The cottage was very cosy and clean with everything you require to enjoy a pleasant holiday. The owners were very helpfull and polite. Castleton is a very friendly village with several places to eat.Having a pet and wanting to spend time with him we found it an advantage that dogs were welcome in some pubs and coffee shops.

“Alton Towers” Great location for alton Towers. Just across the road and round the corner - but quiet. Checked in by very friendly local. Set in courtyard with 2 other cottages - but own private yard/BBQ/seating.

“It was very peaceful and relaxing” The service was very good the home was very clean with the added bonus of ensuite bedrooms. The plasma screen tv was brilliant as was the game console. The local pub was really good and the food was excellent! Beautiful scenery and lovely walks. Enjoyed the quietness and the welcoming pack. There was nothing to dislike.

“Pet friendly and peaceful.” A delightful, cosy cottage ideal for a peaceful break. Our dogs were made to feel very welcome. Situated on a farm, there were lots of places to walk and a very good pub serving excellent food was within walking distance. The addition of coal and other fire making materials made the cottage warm and cosy once the night set in. The Dales are only a short drive away along with quaint market towns that have quirky shops and lots of cafes.

“A fabulous family holiday, great for all ages” A lovely cottage, within walking distance of alton Towers for 4 20+ year-olds. We had a lovely relaxing weekend while they were all out! Very comfortable, well-appointed and equipped. A great place to tour from (for us) and lovely local pubs serving great food and real ales.

“Excellant and comfortable break” Superb accomodation. Excellant location for alton Towers, walking distance and saved hassle of parking. Accomodation was very spacious and ample room for 8 adults and 2 children. Great having the 4 bathrooms. The scenery surrounding the cottage was breath taking and created a very relaxing atmosphere making us feel rested after out holiday. The living area was spacious and plenty room for all to sit comfortably.

“Staying on the farm” Our hostess was really friendly and very helpful. Quiet location. Great base for visiting York and Leeds. Well appointed cottage and warm even in November. Close to two villages and Tadcaster for eating out.

“Beautifully renovated interior” Very friendly and welcoming owners,found easily with Sat Nav not so easily with downloaded directions.Very spacious interior, ideal for more than one family. A little smelly from the cess pit. We were here to tour and it was perfect for that not so sure in the summer as right in the center of the farm and a lot of areas out of bounds, which is fair enough as it is a working farm, however if you had small children it could be a problem.Would certainly come back.
