We spent three nights at Penny's and Andy's lovely cottage. We were only two, but the cottage is spacious enough for a family with two children. The house is fully equipped, very clean and a lot of information about the area is generously provided (maps, walks, leaflets of pubs etc). We felt very welcomed; on our arrival, there were treats (tea, coffee, eggs, fresh milk and cake!) on the kitchen table waiting for us. The cottage is 5' to Ashbourne by car (where you can find supermarket and cafes etc) and also is a picturesque, short drive to landmarks and trails of Peak District. Penny and Andy were very friendly and helpful but also gave us our privacy. We had a lovely stay and we would definitely recommend the cottage to other visitors!

This cottage is a gem. Beautiful, cosy, quiet, everything you could hope for for getting away and staying in the peaks. Andrew and Penny were there next door for anything I needed but were very respectful of privacy, check in through to check out was very smooth. There are a number of peaks attractions all within 20-30 minute drive, including Ilam and Dovedale which are not only stunning, but only about a 10 minute drive away. some really lovely walks about, just be prepared to get muddy in early March :-) Tissingtno is a beautiful little village just five minutes up the road also, with a lovely trail you can walk or cycle. Definitely recommend staying here, and I I'll definitely be back. Thanks again Andrew and Penny :-)

Een prachtige lokatie met een geweldig uitzicht! Een warm welkom met heerlijke zelfgebakken scones! De cottage was van alle gemakken voorzien. Ashbourne is ook zeker de moeite waard om te bezoeken en ook de omgeving is adembenemend mooi! Dit adres is een echte aanrader!!!

A very comfortable and well equipped property set in a peaceful location with stunning views. The property was well situated for exploring the area and the hosts were very welcoming and helpful.

Andrew's cottage was fantastic. Great stay and we highly recommend it.

Stunning views, very handy for Ashbourne or trips to the peaks, very pleasant accomodation

Delph Cottage is perfect! out in the countryside but only minutes from Ashborne. Lots of clean space, quiet and beautiful. Andrew and his family are friendly hosts. I have nothing bad at all to say about them or the cottage

This is in the middle of nowhere - absolute heaven, peaceful and beautiful. Also close enough to Ashbourne and local pubs and restaurants to enjoy. Andrew and Penny were very welcoming, and our extremely late arrival didn't phase them at all. Thank you for having us - hope to be back.

An absolutely glorious place to stay, cannot recommend it highly enough. The cottage is fantastic. Spacious and equipt with everything you need. The use of the pool is an added bonus, but the great location means we were rarely there!

Swallows Cottage is extremely comfortable and exceptionally well-equipped: as a fellow Airbnb host I could see all the care and trouble taken! There is such a lot to see and do nearby and masses of information and maps in the cottage. And the Peak District is very beautiful.

A great place to stay for accessing all the Peak District has to offer.

What a fantastic weekend we had at Swallows Cottage. Even better than the pictures and description this place was just perfect. Right on the door step of the stunning peaks the cottage was a fantastic location and its rural setting allowed us to relax immediately. Inside, it couldn't have been cosier. The log burner was perfect to warm up our cold feet after a long day on the peaks. This place really did feel like home from home. In fact we had a idea of heading to a local pub on our stay, but instead opted for a evening in, soaking up and making the most of the cottage. Communication was amazing with Izzy, the owner, who provided us with great directions and local information. We can't wait to head back to this hidden gem hopefully in the summer to make use of the pool. After a weekend spent here at Swallows we were recharged, relaxed and ready to head back to the big smoke. Perfect

We arrived at the cottage and already loved it due to the surrounding area. The cottage was lovely, and well equipped with anything you needed. Izzy has gone to a great deal of effort to provide a pack which includes menus and walks and places of interest locally. We had a ridiculously relaxing stay in this secluded spot.

The host canceled this reservation 23 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

This is lovely wee cottage placed in idilic surroundings. The directions providwd were perfect for finding the place and the cottage is near enough to Ashbourne to allow you to easily explore the town and take advantage of its shops and restaurants.

My mum and I had such a lovely weekend celebrating our birthdays at Swallow's Cottage. The cottage was immaculate and full of home comforts and added extras like the Nespresso machine.Izzy was such a welcoming and helpful host - we arrived to a lovely card and flowers from the garden wishing us both a happy birthday. Fabulous location, I'd highly recommend The George at Alstonefield for Sunday lunch. We would love to come and stay again!

Roger was very friendly and helpful. The cottage is huge and is good value. Location is very close to some of the very popular places for Peak District. There is good view as well. My wife forgot her jacket and Roger deliver it very quick which was very impressed. Thanks!

Rainbow cottage was welcoming and spacious. We loved our stay there!

Comfy, cosy cottage, just in need of a clean. Great location.

The cottage was a warm, homely, peaceful place with beautiful views but not too far from 'civilisation'. The coal fire and rainbow theme were lovely. Thanks for sharing your obviously much loved retreat with us.

Rainbow Cottage was a great base to relax as well as scout the local area. The coal fire was great...but may have been an issue if one of our group didn't have prior experience with coal fires. I had trouble with internet reception, so didn't get the email about the back boiler until after I had messaged Roger, but, we managed to figure out how everything worked via text. It was great having the place to ourselves instead of cramming into a small hotel room.

Amazing cottage wonderful countryside. It's on a very busy main road but once inside that's soon forgotten, just take care parking and crossing. . Everything we needed and more was available. Aged 72 to 4, the whole family were comfortable. Terry across the road was very helpful too. Rainbow cottage is a real suntrap too. Would definitely stay again, the kids especially loved it.

A very nice stay - thank you, Roger. Me and my 3 friends stayed at the Rainbow Cottage for 1 night during our hiking trip in Peak District. Perfect location, easy to find. Instructions from Roger were very cmprehensive and hepful. The house was all for ourselves, very spacious and comfortable. Beautiful views from the windows. We also had free range eggs from the neighbours for breakfast - delicious. It was a great stay, good value for money, and can certainly recommend Roger and the Rainbow Cottage to everyone.

The listing was just as described, the cottage is lovely and we all had a fantastic weekend away. We loved coming back to the cottage after a day of walking, putting on the fire and relaxing. Impressive collection of board games too!

A delightful cottage in the centre of town, with all facilities to hand. The property is clean and well maintained, and the owner is attentive and helpful. We would definitely recommend to others.

Very comfortable, very well located in town centre with shops, restaurants and pubs within minutes walk. Approached via gated alley which meant it was also very private and quiet.

The cottage is clean and comfortable and very central to the centre of Ashbourne being located on the market square. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and pubs literally on the doorstep with a great bakery next door. having said that, the cottage is in a secluded position and very quiet.

Thank you for hosting us, we loved your hidden gem of a cottage - tucked away but so perfectly central. We had everything we needed for a comfortable few days away. We were lucky the weather was great so we were able to have breakfast on the patio under the palm tree! :)

Great location lovely house we all enjoyed our holiday

Well hidden, but right in the middle of Ashbourne. We enjoyed our visit to the area, and this cottage made the perfect base!

Fantastic location, with Ashbourne literally on the doorstep. But not noisy either. Lovely shopsand the market to wonder around and lots to do in surrounding areas. Unfortunately it rained while we were there so we didn't get to enjoy the courtyard garden. But the house perfectly suited our needs for a long weekend. Thanks Marc!

Annie replied to all messages promptly, she had information about the local area and useful tips on activities.

Malden Cottage is a large and comfortable home that easily accommodated our mixed group of seven. We enjoyed the large, well-appointed kitchen and range of spaces to hang out plus the convenience (if you excuse the pun) of there being three bathrooms/toilets. You can also get two cars in the drive, which is useful. Communication with Annie both before and at check-in/check-out all went without a hitch. It's a bit of a hike into town but nothing in a car, and that's the only -ve I can think of.

Considering I booked this on short notice, Annie did a great job in informing us of the instructions prior to reaching the venue. Everything matched the description set and the house was warm and created a good ambiance, it's very much accommodating to groups. The house in general, kitchen, bedding and bathrooms were clean with fresh towels provided too. Location was good with specified walking trails around 20/30 minutes drive away.

Lovely spacious house well stocked kitchen and with comfy beds. Views are stunning and the area is lovely.

Malden Cottage is very conveniently situated - near enough to Ashbourne to be walkable but far enough away to be peaceful. It is also situated in a great part of the countryside for walking. The downstairs of the house is deceptively large, the garden quiet and sunny with a lovely seating area and a BBQ . The kitchen is especially well equipped with unexpected extras like oils, tea, coffee etc provided. The house is also spotlessly clean. We had a great stay.

The place is great and Annie made it special letting us fins a fireplace ready to be started and some bubbles for my gf birthday! Highly reccomended, will book again!

Annie's house at Ashbourne was a wonderful quiet and comfortable place to stay at with my friends. We were 6 at that trip, and we sure used all the facilities given in the well-equipped kitchen and thought the whole house. The wonderful sofa at the living-room was our favorite for chats, and the wonderful backyard for the cigar that came after. All the beds were comfortable and we had clean white sheets waiting for us. The bathrooms were clean and tidy as well! Thanks for having us!

We really enjoyed our stay at Malden Cottage. Annie is a really helpful host and the house is lovely. Six of us stayed for my brother's 60th birthday and we had a really relaxing time. The house is very homely and comfortable, with everything you need and there's lots of space for everyone. If the weather had been better we would have enjoyed sitting in the garden, which is really pretty, with lots of birds flitting about.

Mappleton Manor is beautiful. It is has everything you need for a wonderful stay. The log basket is stocked, a bottle of wine was waiting and whilst we didn't meet Kim, we were made to feel very welcome by a couple of Kim's friends. Everything descried is how we found it and we had the best stay. I would recommend Mappleton Manor to anyone interested in staying in a historic property in complete tranquility. Thanks Kim for making your lovely home available.

We have just had such a fantastic week staying at Mappleton Manor. The photos here don't really do it justice. To wake up in a really comfortable bed to the sound of sheep and the sight of fields and hills all around was just bliss. On arrival the personal touches Kim had left around the house such as fresh flowers, dressing up box and dressing gowns for our boys as well as drinks upon arrival just made us really feel welcome and was such a lovely start to our holiday. We were incredibly lucky with the weather so were able to go off on some amazing walks in the area surrounding Mappleton. On the one wet day we had we very much enjoyed getting cosy in front of the log burner, listening to music and lounging around on the comfy sofa. We really have nothing but positive feedback for Kim and her gorgeous house and would highly recommend a visit. My parents and myself would absolutely love to return some time in the future.

Mappleton Manor proved the perfect place for our girlie weekend away. We enjoyed every moment of our visit and were made to feel very welcome by Kim and Tristan. The manor provides a little taste of luxury on all levels. Comfortable and cosy in a beautiful setting - we made breakfast with the lambs playing outside the window! If you are looking for somewhere to get away from it all, taste fine country living and generally have a very nice time, look no further! Mappleton really has a very endearing, positive spirit.

My family and I had a lovely stay at Kim's - and we will certainly be staying again. The house met all of needs and more. The stunning high ceilings and large rooms made for a comforting and enjoyable stay. The Oakover Arms - the local pub conveniently located a 10 minute walk away - served us brilliant comfort food and good beer. We also took advantage of the well-equipped kitchen to rustle up full English breakfasts each morning. The setting of a property is simply stunning - a beautiful part of the world. Thanks again Kim!

Stayed this weekend with my uni friends. There were 8 of us and we all talk a lot so I warned Kim that we might be noisy but she didn't seem to mind at all. The house and location were perfect and we all had such a lovely time. I would definitely recommend it to others. Thank you

Kim and Tristian were welcoming and helpful. This is a super property with a lovely views over the fields toward the river Dove. There is a lot to see nearby and we will be back! The host also afforded us our privacy and it was super to be in a lovely setting with no neighbours.

Thanks to Kim and Tristan for a fantastic weekend away at Mappleton Manor. A picture perfect setting with accommodation to suit. Comfortably fitted all 6 of us staying over with everyone having had a great time. The drinks on arrival started the weekend perfectly. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful, spacious home, warm and gracious homeowners, beautiful surrounding area. We regret only having 3 days to spend there. Our children loved the two horses on site and we were fortunate to have the Tristan & Kim there to give us advice on the local area. Dovedale is minutes away for an amazing nature walk & hill climbing. Chatsworth is also a quick trip away and is a must.

Fearnlea is a beautiful old house in a charming village surrounded by the most wonderful countryside. Nina and Andrew-and cats- were hugely hospitable ensuring we felt at home immediately. Breakfast was delicious, the bed comfy, and very welcome after lots of cycling and walking. It was very difficult to leave on Sunday morning!

We had a wonderful stay in Nina and Andrew's beautiful house, Parwich is everything you could want and more in an English village, we can't wait for a summer visit.
