Coupling Cottage Reviews

Charlotte

Coupling Cottage is the perfect base for exploring the area, so close to town, whilst being comfortable and completely private! The decor is fantastic and the paintings by Claire the owner dotted around show why, she has a fantastic eye! We loved the log burner, the sofa is comfortable unlike most places we have stayed in! the bed is very comfortable too. The garden is huge and the hot tub a lovely, private place to unwind after a long walk. We recommend making the 34 mile walk can get bus too to nearby Makeney, to The Holly Bush Inn a traditional 17th century Inn with fantastic food and great beers! Its won awards and we see why! There a lots of cafes, pubs and restaurants in town too! The Devonshire, as others have said is a good one. Everything is dog friendly which is fabulous! There a lots of lovely walks from the doorstep and it really felt like stepping back in time. The cobbled street and history of the cottages on the street is fascinating too. Thank you Claire

Enjoyed our weeks stay, the cottage is brimming full of character, charm and history.

Elaine

Lovely property, brilliant communication. Fantastic location

The cottage has been beautifully done out, great attention to detail. The main bedroom is amazing with its princess bed. Claire the host was friendly and helpful, especially as we were there during Storm Pia! Lovely hot tub to soak away the days walking, garden is lovely although we didn't use it much in December! It may be worth noting that the property is right next to a busy train line in the listing. It didn't bother us much but some may find it noisy. We will definitely return in the future

This cottage looks as it did on the website and would have been a dream stay sadly we had multiple issues which meant we couldnt enjoy our stay as hoped. I did report all the issues and trust that the lovely owner had no idea about them but I cannot give the feedback Id planned. Had to buy items to use the hot tub area as their exterior lights kept tripping I had a very nasty fall trying to resolve the issues as I was completely in the dark. I feel for the next guests as the owners could not get the work booked due to it being a busy time of year. Our shower also was a huge disappointment it leaked out of the back all over the tiles onto the floor owners did come and quickly try to fix but this issue returned. Be aware of the slippery decking winter time The cottage was beautiful and Claire has excellent taste it was idealic in that respect. The area is beautiful and the cottage its self is in a great location with everything in walking distance super friendly locals. The kitchen is modern in design but be aware not great for food storage if you plan to eat in all the time. Front room is so cosy the fact they had decorated for Christmas was a lovely gesture. Sadly when we arrived the Prosecco & Chocolates all previous guests had raved about where not there. Claire did apologise and we did get a bottle of Bucks Fizz and some wine, however it did feel a bit of a let down especially given we had to report so many issues. I want to leave a review that doesnt just highlight the low points but ends on a positive. Claire and her Husband really did try to assist with the issues at the cottage sadly we were just unlucky that no one had reported them in time for our stay. Fantastic little home away from home once the hot tub area gets some well needed attention and safety improvements. It was frustrating having to fork out money on top of the weeks rent in order to be able to use the hot tub and enjoy it. We have left the owners our feedback privately. All in all stunting place great location too many great pubs and places to eat that we decided not to cook in the cottage as planned but treat ourselves Nourish the Devonshire and the Chinese at the bottom of the road to cottage are all excellent. The owners put a lot of effort into the decoration of the place and did provide us with additional wood as a peace offering.

Fantasy cottage in a great location perfect for relaxing.

Samantha

A beautiful week away for our minimoon. Cottage had everything you could need and the hot tub was a bonus for the cold evenings. Plenty of places to eat and a good central location for everything you would need. Bed was very comfy. Winnie the Frenchie also had a very nice time and her favourite place was next to the fire in the evenings.

Matthew

Beautiful property with an enclosed garden which meant we didnt need to worry about the dogs wondering away. The hot tub was a great additional feature where we could relax in the morning and evening. The property owner was easy to contact if I had any queries and responded promptly. We all slept well each night and there are nice walks close enough to go on. We went to a number of bars near the property and the thai restaurant just at the bottom of the street, also the gastro pub close to that did very tasty food. Would recommend for anyone who wants to have a relaxing time away with good food and nice walks to go on.

We loved our stay at the cottage, it was perfect with the hot tub. A nice and enclosed garden so it was safe for the dog. Everything we needed was there .

Miriam

We really loved our stay, thank you. We have booked again because we liked it so much. The wine in the fridge was a special welcome.

We had a lovely stay. Loved the cottage it has everything you need. Very cosy. Great location.

Dianne

Absolutely loved the cottage, beautiful garden. Close to amenities but still felt very private. Liked it so much we've booked for next year.

Had a great stay such a beautiful cottage and loved the hot tub would highly recommend staying. The cottage is close to all the local shops and cafes . Its is also perfectly positioned if you want to get the train out to explore other places.

This was the 3rd visit to this beautiful cottage in a fantastic location. The accommodation is clean, comfortable and decorated so beautifully. The garden is huge and hot tub is a brilliant addition. It is all enclosed, perfect for having a dog. The location of the property is fantastic. It is just off the A6 handy for Matlock, Chatsworth and the Peak District. We will definitely be visiting again.

Imogen

The decor was gorgeous, the garden was secluded and secure for the dogs. The jacuzzi was really nice and a lot of fun. The bed was super comfortable and I love the fact that it was a scaffolding 4 poster bed.

We had a lovely stay. The cottage is lovely.

An absolutely beautiful cottage, lovely location. Clean, tidy, comfortable and extremely relaxing! I wouldn't hesitate in visiting again!

Stewart

Lovely cottage we're considering to return, nice and relaxing with great enclosed garden for the dog, only a short walk into town. Had an issue with the hot tub but resolved with the owners. If your thinking of booking this cottage then do it you won't be disappointed.

Tracey

We had a lovely few days at Coupling Cottage. The cottage had everything we needed and more. Appreciated the basket of logs for the fire. Lots of lovely things to do close by and had a lovely meal in The Devonshire. Thank you.

Matthew

Beautiful cottage with lovely hot tub , very well equipped with everything you need. We had a wonderful stay and also highly recommend Nonnos Italian restaurant in Belper. A perfect break, thankyou

Rebecca

The decor was lovely and had everything we needed. Would have been nice to have milk on arrival as well as teabags etc Kitchen cleanliness wasnt great a hair in the fridge, fridge needed a deeper clean, toaster needed a clean, kettle lid broken and I had to re wash some of the cutlery or Crockery before use. The towels didnt feel overly freshly washed as well,

Lovely cottage. Warm and bed was comfy. Parking not the best. Easy access into town. Claire was super helpful as the boiler broke and we delayed start of our holiday while it was replaced. Garden was a major bonus. Think it could be clearer bathroom is on ground floor which for more than one couple would not be great.

Andrew

Have just stayed one month at coupling cottage, the cottage is lovely, nice big garden fully enclosed for the dogs. It is next to the train line but got used to them going past. The road to the cottage is very uneven cobbles but take it careful and its fine, it feels like you are back going back in time. Claire the owner was very nice, couldnt do enough for you brought us extra logs for the fire, showed me how to maintain the hot tub which was amazing. The cottage has everything you need. Belper is a lovely little town plenty of shops and great places to eat. Thank you Claire we had a lovely stay.

The cottage was delightful, cosy and festive Lovely enclosed garden for the dog Great location Coupling Cottage and area had everything we needed Problems with the hot tub but owner was very quick to respond Unfortunately we didnt get to use it but a refund was given Had an enjoyable stay and will definitely recommend

We spent 7 nights at Coupling Cottage in mid December, on arrival the street was as described very narrow and coble stoned. The trick is to park diagonally in the designated spot next to the property then you'll have room to not obstruct the road. The cottage itself was lovely, clean, tidy and had a lovely feel about it. Everything was as described, once we'd worked out how to fire the heating up we were good to go. We visited the highstreet on the Sunday for the Christmas fair and also had Sunday dinner at the Devonshire which is great for food or just a quick pint. Most days we didn't rush about, jump in the hot tub and then went for walks into town or on a trail, there's a Morrisons and Aldi in town so plenty of choice. We grabbed a train to Matlock on one of the days which was good for a wander and bite to eat too. All in all a lovely place to stay, we've stayed at many AirBnB's and cottage hires and this was one of our favourites!

Good stay. Tasteful decor. Great garden. Great hot tub. Constructive feedback would like choice of two pillows in the single beds please. The ones there were far too flat. One bed very very squeaky and needs looking at! There were stains on some sheets. I understand some stains dont come out in the wash, but when its your own and you know what they are its not that bad. However for guestsI would just bin them. Not nice not knowing what it is or where its come from! Couldnt work heating first night no instructions left it came on at about 30 degrees in middle of night managed to work it out next day.

This was our second stay at Coupling Cottage. It is a beautiful property with a wonderful, enclosed garden. It is perfect for getting away and just relaxing, using the hot tub or for using as a base to explore Derbyshire. We will definitely be back

The garden is fantastic, I think the fact the toilet is downstairs should be ... The garden is fantastic, I think the fact the toilet is downstairs should be mentioned considering the bedrooms are over two floors and the acess road is bad so should maybe warn people about that too but overall a lovely place to stay

Beautiful, well equipped cottage. Hot tub was great and super clean. Lots to do in Belper and the cottage is in a great location for everything. The owner is great and sorted out a small issue we had with the back door within minutes! Only small thing I would say is that the previous occupants hadnt cleaned up after their dog, so we did have to spend a bit of time clearing the garden of poop

Very well presented cottage with everything we needed to explore the Peak District during a short 3 night stay. Close to town centre and supermarkets and a short drive to other areas to go walking with our dog.

Lauren

Very well Equipped house, we had a perfect stay making memories in the big gardenhot tub. We only stayed in the house the whole weekend we didnt explore so we dont know much about the area but the kids loved that the railway was right next to us!

We stayed Sunday 5th to Thursday 9th of May 2022. This is a lovely cottage in a great location. Once parked up we left the car and used the train to get to places to Visit like the Cromford Canal and Heights of Abraham. Having the hot tub was brilliant after a long day walking to help you relax in the evenings. We only ate out twice during the stay once at the Devonshire which is dog friendly and then take away fish n chips. The property is very clean and everything is in great condition with a fully stocked kitchen etc. We would stay again and have already recommended to a family member.

The cottage is perfect as a base. It is done out perfectly alongside the railways and is a great link to years gone by. The facilities are great. Huge enclosed garden which our dogs loved, the seating areas in the garden are great, the hot tub is superb. Belper is a great little town with lots of shops, restaurants and pubs. There are lots of great walks and interesting towns and places right on the doorstep.

Rachael

Really lovely, relaxing stay at Coupling Cottage. Beautiful setting, lots of places to visit nearby. A steam engine passing at the bottom of the garden is a treat, if you look up the timetable. A problem with the garden lights was quickly resolved. The cobbled road is a bit tricky to drive on and parking is tight but that adds to the character of the place. Highly recommend. Thanks.
