Yew Tree Nook Reviews

Lovely luxury accommodation, they think of everything
Beautiful place beautiful scenery, its was so cosy we had our annual ... Beautiful place beautiful scenery, its was so cosy we had our annual Christmas get together and we woke up to snow on Sunday morning just breathtaking highly recommend
Victoria
Absolutely gorgeous little gem of a find! Loved the quirky decor and history of the place, as well as the modern upgrades and home comforts. The hot tub was perfect, and the communal area was great for dinners and gathering together. Parking is tight, but there are other spots opposite the church and further up the lane for additional cars.
Charlotte
The property was absolutely beautiful with a well maintained garden and lovely hot tub. Its very quirky and a pretty property which was also very clean! Our only slight complaint would be that the sofa bed is far below standard, it looks like it has previously been repaired but it just feels like youre sleeping on a bed of screws. The other rooms and beds were perfectly comfortable though. The rest of the cottage is well equipped and very pleasant. We would definitely return for a second visit!
Aishwarya
The property is very conveniently located to access various peak district hikes and amenities nearby but it is still very quiet nested among nature. The hot tub is amazing and is highly recommended after a long day of hiking.
Simran
Wonderful location with nice walks and not too far away from amenities. Hot tub is amazing, such a nice size, accommodated all of use. Quirky and very cosy accommodation with lots of space. Tv having all channels was a nice surprise, and rare. Would visit again. Great communication from the owner with queries too
Cosy, comfortable and peaceful, just what we needed afer a difficult year. Many thanks to Jennie and Lynne for sorting the problem with the electrics promptly and cheerfully, could not have asked for better service. Beds comfortable, showers great, hot ub wonderful, area beautiful with plenty to do. A really lovely relaxing fortnight.
Stephanie
Had a great stay. Lovely quirky properly with lots of amenities. Loved the location it was so peaceful but close to local attractions. We visited Alton towers and Buxton which were only 30 minutes drive away. We did have a small issue with our key breaking but the team sorted it out quickly and there was plenty of information provided to help make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Just wish we could of stayed for longer. Our families x2 2.4 children loved it! Especially the hot tub. Hopefully we will be back again soon.
Karolina
Very nice cottage, in a beatiful countryside. Well equipped and clean.
Charlie
Yew tree nook is a truly unique and quirky property. It is bursting with character due to the lovely vaulted ceilings. The property was clean, well designed and extremely comfortable. The hot tub was great. It is very close to shops in Ashbourne, and very well located to enjoy the best of the southern peak district. We loved our stay and we would definitely stay here again family with 3 young kids. There is also a large property to rent directly above, so there's space for large extended families, and we're hoping to rent both soon for precisely that. The only thing I'd mention is that the parking is tight it IS possible to fit two estate sized cars in the parking area, but you have to be inch perfect. Overall, 10 out of 10.
Michael
Fantastic stay over Christmas 2021. Property was clean and exactly as described and shown in pictures. Lovely open plan kitchen diner and lounge, perfect for socialising, and roomy enough for a 3 year old to play and run around. Vaulted ceiling bedrooms, gave a real cosy feel to the place. Hot tub was enjoyed many evenings and was very well lit. Large TV in the lounge which was great for 5 of us to watch Christmas films A very nice touch on arrival with a brightly lit Christmas tree in the lounge area made it very festive thank you. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.
On arrival the cottage has mildew mould growing on settees soft furnishings , bedlinen extremely tired and musty. The carpets are so worn they have holes in them. The entire property is desperate need of a deep clean. Called cleaners on arrival who did respond and filled on our request the property with air fresheners . This only masked the smells . Thanks for so promptly. We have left the property early as it is causing both of us breathing difficulties. Definitely not caused by COVID ! We cannot recommend this property and feel that you should notify the property owner that soft furnishings need replacement as does the carpet. On the positive The hot tub outdoors was clean and the property does have effective heating ,
Thomas
A lovely cottage! ! The facilities are brilliant and exactly how explained. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone and would return for another stay. There is an Aldi about 10 minutes away and other shops too.
Really nice place to stay. Owner and cleaning team were very helpful.
We had a fantastic time! !!! Beautiful cottage, great garden and hot tub! Close to all south Peak attractions and amenities in Ashbourne. Would highly recommend!!!
Shame there wasn't an easier way of walking out from the cottage without negotiating the cattle grid eg little side gate especially for children. However, it was wellequipped we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thank you!
Hannah
We were blown away with the character of the property. It was stunning. We unfortunately had a little trouble with the hot tub on the Friday evening where we had to contact the owner. Although we were disappointed we could not use it that evening, someone was out for 8am the next day and got it fixed for us to use after our walk on Saturday afternoon which we were really happy with. Really quick service and very apologetic. The only feedback I would have is the lack of everyday essentials. Things like cling film, foil, salt and pepper etc that you dont really want to be buying just for a couple of nights. We did also run out of toilet paper as I think we only had one additional roll between two bathrooms. The recycling bin was also full to the brim when we arrived. So we unfortunately just had to stack our boxesglasses and cans next to it. However, these were just minor things that did not negatively impact our stay, just would have made things a little easier and convenient. On a whole we had an amazing time and the property was the perfect getaway. I would also like to let you know about the private chef we hired for the Saturday evening. This was David from The Dinner Party Company and he was amazing. The preevent communication, food, and service was amazing and such good value for money. A nice little addition to top off a really relaxing stay and happy to share his details if its something youd like to promote to guests. Thank you for a great service and stay! Kind regards Hannah and guests
