Filthy upon arrival, false advertising as somethings not at cottage for example bbq. Broken furniture Would not recommend

We felt Bloomfield House was in a good situation in the town and very convenient for "stepping out." The beds were comfortable and clean. The bathrooms, though clean and spacious, were reminiscent of... See more

Property in bad condition, charged to clean mess left before we arrived

Booked a lovely looking cottage.

When we arrived, the place was unclean and looked like people had just left. Wasn't 'unliveable' but not in the condition we were told it would be.

Sent an email about this only to be told nothing could be done and STILL expected us to leave the place in the same condition we found it or will be charged. As they had claimed initially it was completely cleaned, they expected us to leave the property in a BETTER STATE than we received it.

While we initially asked for a small compensation due to the conditions as they were not the same as promised, it ended costing us more. Not sure if this was a tactic planned beforehand or just negligence. Either way, won't use again as very untrustworthy.

Little Gem

A well converted farm cottage in a great location for exploring the Peak District. Wood burners keeps the cottage warm on cold days. The cottage is well equipped with all new furniture and fittings. It has a lovely enclosed garden with far reaching views. There is an excellent pub within a 5 minute walk.

Bosing Barn, Kniveton

A charming property in a delightful setting, well equipped and furnished to a high standard. However the central heating was not actually turned on and the log basket was empty so during a cool, blustery and often wet September week we found the house to be not warm enough in the evenings and the bathrooms especially were uncomfortably chilly. Rather disappointing.

Compact homely cottage in great location

'Dormy', Foolow, Eyam: Compact, lovely cottage right opposite a decent pub. Entrance straight off the street (no porch). Well-equipped, bright, clean kitchen with access to a small, private, enclosed courtyard out the back. The kitchen has a gas oven/hob, compact dishwasher, microwave, filter coffee machine, kettle, toaster, fridge, and all crockery, cutlery, utensils and cooking equipment. No recycling bins. Decent living room with comfy sofa and two armchairs. Smart Freeview TV [inc Netflix] and decent, reliable WiFi. Downstairs bathroom which is quite tight, the shower lacks a curtain and water goes everywhere, but it was clean and airy and there was plenty of almost instant hot water. Upstairs a lovely, roomy double bedroom at the front and a nice single second bed. We stayed in September and didn't need any heating, the temperature was lovely in the cottage. Reasonable price and excellent service and information from Original Cottages. Warmly recommended.

Property Description

Regarding the location of the property it would be very wise to advise future customers that the access road is a single farm track that is only suitable for 4x4 vehicles since the ground is extremely uneven and large holes that would potentially damage any standard or most certainly low profile (sports type) vehicles.
The property was far from clean and having asked for the floor to be cleaned when we arrived it unfortunately made little difference. My wife and I spent the first day we arrived cleaning the property! The kitchen cupboard doors were not clean, the fridge shelves were broken, there was dog hairs all over the furniture and floor, there was food/debris under the sofa, the allocated parking space was extremely tight since the owner parks her own vehicle in the accompanying space making it near on possible to park. The towels in the bathroom were well used and hard, the shower had a lot of built up black mildew and the shower pressure was less than adequate.
In summary as you can see this does not accurately reflect the website description of the property and its surroundings.

Swallows nest

Swallows nest is a comfy homely cottage attached to the owners who is a very kind welcoming man, but does not disturb your holiday. The garden is lovely to sit in and reflect on your day. A little peace of heaven.

Amazing!!!

We had an amazing stay at woodpecker cottage. The owners thought of everything to make us feel comfortable and a home away from home, including a homemade cake on arrival and items for breakfast the next day. We truly were well looked after and I can’t wait to book another stay here. Thank you :)
