Lavender Cottage

Excellent Location for us. Most interesting base on a Working Farm + Livery. Our second visit so this is a good endorsement. Hosts kind and engaging.

No negatives

It was peaceful and relaxing on a working livery. Well-appointed and equipped. V pleasant surroundings, easy access to all the Peak district.

It was a lovely cottage on a farm. clean and good location.

there was no hot water for the whole of our 3 night stay and they couldn't fix it until Tues after the bank holiday which we found a little crazy!! We had to boil water to wash. we had a partial refund when we got home.

Very welcoming & friendly. Cottage clean, comfortable & well equipped. Liked the added bonus of tea, coffee, milk etc being provided. Lovely location. Ideally placed for visiting local areas of interest.

Really lovely little property with a welcome package of bread, milk and wine, nice and quiet. Loved the underfloor heating in the bathroom, and the instructions for finding it were spot on. Incredibly clean and tidy.

We arrived after dark so it might be nice if the property had a name plate on/by the door, such a minor thing since on the whole it was absolutely fantastic but it would make things feel less like taking a chance you'd got the right one and weren't trying to break in to another cottage! :)

Well appointed, cosy little cottage finished off with personal touches to make it an ideal choice for a weekend break for a couple. Located close to the Peak District with easy access to local amenities including great walks and good pubs (try out the village pub for the best cheese platters). Hosts very welcoming and knowledgable around the local area. Plan to return.

Not much to dislike. Only challenge if you do need to make contact with the outside world is that there is limited phone signal in the valley - wifi available but slow and patchy. Faster broadband speed in the cottage would be helpful (if available).

The cottage was beautiful, really clean, comfortable, very peaceful and homely. I would have loved to stay longer. Very friendly farm workers. Difficult if you don't have a car but if you drive then it's an ideal location to get to Hope Valley, Chesterfield and Sheffield.

A word of warning if you don't have a car - taxis will take you back there but it's difficult to get one to pick you up from the cottage. The buses only go to Hope Valley/totley train station on weekends. They're infrequent but reliable. You can walk for an hour and a half to Dore and totley station. It's a good idea to close the curtains while you're out in the day in summer - it gets hot!
