About Roseville

Roseville is a charming abode resting in a wooded hillside with stunning views over the picturesque village of Cromford in Derbyshire, and is a superb, extended 18th century cottage. Packed with original features such as exposed beams and stonework it marries old with new providing a home from home steeped in history.

Situated in the heart of the Derwent Valley Mills UNESCO World Heritage Site, Cromford is best known for being the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, as the site of Industrialist Richard Arkwright’s first cotton mills. Even Roseville once belonged to the Arkwright family.

Set over two floors and sleeping up to eight guests in 4 well-proportioned double bedrooms, Roseville is the perfect family-friendly setting for exploring the Peak District with your furry friend, with easy access to country walks such as the High Peak Trail and the Cromford Canal. Be welcomed into the well-equipped kitchen, which boasts all the mod cons you could need from a washer/dryer and dishwasher to a coffee machine that will automatically steam your milk and make a perfect latte at the touch of a button.

The quaint dining area enjoys beautiful views though the large kitchen windows and is the perfect place to open a bottle of fizz and chat whilst culinary delights are being whipped up in the double oven. Retire to the lounge on an evening where you can relax under exposed beams on the large corner sofa in front of your favourite film on the 4K Smart TV, as the woodburning stove crackles nearby from the original stone fireplace.

Completing this floor is a handy downstairs W.C which is ideal for a quick freshen up before setting out for the day. When sleep calls, you have a choice of four bedrooms to retire to, the first being a king-size on the ground floor and on the first floor, two further king-size rooms, one with an en-suite shower, and one double room with dual aspect views over the village.

Roseville Reviews

Clean, well looked after property. Spacious and easily accomodated 4 adults. The welcome hamper was a lovely unexpected touch. Great outdoor area and hot tub makes a lazy afternoon that bit more special.
We had an amazing stay at Roseville. The property is beautifully decorated and well maintained. It had all the amenities that we needed. It is a lovely space throughout. The garden are is beautiful overlooking the village and the hot tub just makes it. The Umberella going over the hot tub is a great touch, especially with the typical English weather! It is in a great location. The town has everything you need, traditional local pubs and quaint cafes. And Matlock Bath is a short drive away, or about a 25 minute walk which is great. It is a great base to explore the surrounding areas.
Hayley
The beds are super comfy with lovely decor throughout, lots of kitchen utensils, lovely welcome pack and the area was stunning with lovely neighbours. There is not an ensuite as described it's just a shower in the room that does not drain away so could not be used due to flooding the room. The blinds were hanging off in one room, hot tub had not been cleaned sufficiently filter was clogged, shower in main bathroom has been glued in place causing flooding of the room ! Toaster didn't work. Mainly Small things that are easily fixed would make this place idyllic. Instructions to drive the mins to Sainsbury's to dispose of any glass are outdated there are no longer glass bins there !
Roseville is such a lovely cottage. Close to the village below. The cottage itself has everything you need, and the welcome hamper was a lovely idea to! Would highly recommend and would love to stay here again.
Fantastic holiday, we visited as three families and it had everything we needed. Neil is an excellent host and contact was super quick and easy. There was a lovely welcome pack for when we arrived. We all had a great time and the hot tub was definitely a luxury! The cottage is located in a brilliant central location to everything. Cromford is lovely, Matlock bath is an easy walk away and Matlock and Bakewell a short drive. It really is a convenient place to stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to stay again soon.
Rachel
What a stunning place. The pictures do not do it justice. Was the perfect place to spend family time. We all LOVED it. Cannot recommend Roseville enough or the surrounding area. Something to do for all. The house is full of character and the views... Breathtaking xxx. Especially when relaxing in the hot tub
Adrian
Great property and location. The cottage was very clean and tidy and ready for our stay when we arrived. We used the jacuzzi every night which was a very nice change as we don't have one at home. We did a lot of walking and there are great places to explore around the cottage. Matlock Bath is a nice walk from the cottage and if we were there for longer we would have walked to Matlock instead of driving there. Our dog loved the stay and was ready for his bed every night and slept really well. There are 2 great pubs down the road Greyhound and The Boat Inn, we preferred the Boat Inn as it's an oldworldy type of pub and the food there was fantastic. On our last night we ate at teh Tapas Restaurant which was nice but be prepared to wait for your food if you get the tapas deal. I had pizza so not much of a wait for me. I'd definitely go back to the cottage and am looking at booking again. I promise you won't be disappointed.
Elaine
We had a fabulous weekend at Roseville. We were a party of 8 adults and all the bedrooms were a good size as was the property overall. Lovely cottage with great views in an ideal location for walking or generally getting around in the Peak District. Neil was very responsive in getting back to us when we asked a few questions and most helpful. Neil also recommended the Boat Inn the nearest pub. We would second that lovely atmosphere and very good pub grub especially if you like pies!
