Sycamore Cottage Reviews

Sycamore cottage is a lovely, cosy cottage , especially on a winters day when the snow is falling and the log fire burning . with every thing you requre just perfect .

Emailed the owner as we left to say what a lovely holiday cottage it is .

A brilliant and beautiful cottage! In a really nice location. The owners where brilliant and answered any and all questions that I had. They even decorated the inside for a birthday that we where going away for after I asked them and sent the decorating to them. Truly beautiful and will be revisiting in the summer time.

We had a great stay in this cottage The only two things I would say is no ... We had a great stay in this cottage The only two things I would say is no toilet roll holder in the bathrooms so you had to either turn around to the back of the toilet or put it on the binsink Also there were no placemats for the dining room table which we found strange However all in all it was a beautiful setting and cottage and we would stay here again

Christine

Absolutely stunning house and views. Hot tub fantastic ...looking at the views with the sheep! Had a great week, just wished for longer.... Owner's very friendly and helpful, lovely welcome pack Thank you Christine x

Nichola

Sycamore Cottage was lovely and clean and warm. The cottage is perfect for 2 couples with 2 really good sized bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The welcome pack was really appreciated.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sycamore cottage. The cottage had everything we needed, comfy beds, comfy sofas, well equipped kitchen, and the hot tub! The owner was easy to contact, and kept us informed about local road closures which was nice when you are not local. All in all could not fault the holiday.

Lovely cottage and garden, well equipped and maintained. Outside seating could be improved to accommodate four people.

We absolutely loved every minute of our stay at Sycamore Cottage. The property itself is immaculate, very clean and decorated to a good style with some quirky decorative pieces. There is one main route to the cottage on country lanes from the main road so it is easy to get to, although coming from the Ashbourne end the country lane is very narrow and was a little bit much for me so we always choose the other route past the farm shop, which only added about a minute to the journey and less stressful for me! The hot tub was great and the views were simply amazing, looking out over the Derbyshire Dales with some lovely sheep grazing in the field next door. Ellie, the owner, was brilliant. Very easy to communicate with and so helpful. We had one slight issue with the hot tub but she had it sorted for us straight away. The area is great for all ages. We stayed with our two children 5 and 7 and there was loads to do with them but we could have easily kept ourselves occupied with lots of small villages to explore and loads of walking routes. With the children we took them to Peak Wildlife Park and Splash Landings waterpark, both a little pricey but we spent the whole day there. We also spent the day in Ashbourne, and at Carsington Water, which was great. We went a little further afield and had a trip to the car museum for the husband! and another trip for the children at Conkers, which is an outside activity centre. We had hoped to get to Bakewell and Chatsworth House but just ran out of time! All in all, a brilliant week with a very comfortable cottage to come back to. We would happily return. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Charlotte

What a beautiful property in such a scenic location! The owners were very accommodating and were very responsive to questions we had prior to our stay. They also kept us updated about wifi issues in the area during our visit which we really appreciated. Thank you so much for the welcome pack. It was such a lovely touch and our daughters loved their treats too! The cottage was well equipped especially in the kitchen but we would have appreciated a brush and pan to clean the floor. Overall the property was cleaned to a good standard however, there were a few little bits on the floor particularly in kitchen, upstairs bathroom and dining room which wasn't ideal for a crawling baby. We loved spending time in the garden and in the hot tub surrounded by the beautiful countryside. It was lovely seeing the sheep through the kitchen window! We also enjoyed relaxing by the wood burning stove in the evenings and playing the board games. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

A beautiful stay in a lovely location. Lots of thought has been put in to ensure you have everything you need for a relaxing getaway. The hot tub overlooking the hills and fields is a great place to unwind after a day out exploring the local area.

Trevor

Were frequent renters of self catering accommodation and can honestly say that this is best equipped cottage that weve ever stayed in. It had everything that we needed and more. The photos are a great representation of what youll see in the house but what you cant see are the additional amenities filling the cupboards and drawers the amazing welcome pack, the fresh flowers, sturdy pans and cooking equipment, the wide range of utensils, quality sharp knives for food prep, sufficient cleaning products for our stay, an air fryer, enough glassware for a party, proper wooden coat hangers, magnifying mirrors in the bathroomsI could go on and on! The accommodation was perfect for two couples travelling together and I liked being able to choose the arrangement for the beds. From making my reservation and throughout our stay there was easy contact with the owners, something that I always find reassuring. The area is very peaceful and the views are truly beautiful. Highly recommended.
