The Bell Chime, renovated 3 bedroom cottage in Matlock

Comfortable, great beds and linen, nicely furnished. Sofas lovely. Excellent location close to town centre and nice park. Had all you could want for a stay in kitchen. 2 bathrooms great for group more than a couple. Booking was for us (retired couple) Son and daughter in law and thier 2 children aged 7 and 9. Great space and location.

Can't say I didn't like anything. Took a bit of getting used to in that no sink in kitchen. Sink in utility room next door with washing machine and fab dishwasher. Just took getting organised. Little garden a bonus but needed a bit of TLC. If there had been tools would have done a bit of weeding happily. 😀.

Wonderful 3-bed cottage with fantastic views of the church and valley. Very close to all the Matlock restaurants and parks. Nice renovations, very comfortable! Easy check in and great host communication, highly recommend!

Very clean property with clean towels / linen , enough clean cutlery and utensils . There is a Dishwasher !

1. Kitchen sink is in a small step down utility which is weird and inconvenient 2. Not much garden at all although view is amazing from small garden 3. There is a church just next to the property . It means you hear bells all day and night … we didn’t have any problem but someone with light sleep or sensitive to noise may not prefer this location. 4. No designated parking … street parking is a luck if you get a space .

Decorated to a high standard and spotlessly clean, lovely character to the home and cute terrace with fabulous views. Welcome pack was lovely with tea, coffee, cereal, biscuits - thank you. Loved that they were all local products too and the coffee was delicious. Well located in that it was a short walk into town (although it was a work out on the way back pushing a pram up the big hill). Free on street parking - very limited but actually we had no problem finding a space either day. Well stocked kitchen including washing machine and dishwasher. Cot present in the property for our daughter which was easy to set up. Plenty of space and lots of natural light in the property, it really is decorated beautifully and is clearly well looked after. Shower was lovely and powerful, was nice to have a full bath too.

The name does not lie - the bells at the church chime every 15 minutes 24 hours a day (i naively presumed they would be turned off overnight!). And with single pane windows, it felt like you were sleeping in the Bell tower. The street noise was a lot on the Saturday night - presume the alley next to the house is a popular shortcut as we heard a lot of shouting and singing early hours of Sunday morning. The landing lights are on a sensor and stay on for a while which was a pain for keeping our daughter asleep and settled but they also went on of their own accord a few times in the night which was creepy - especially as the property doesn't feel very secure with just a single lock on the front door which I felt like a swift kick would break. We are very security conscious so it was unnerving hearing so many people go past when the door felt quite flimsy. It was also stiflingly hot, a fan would have been welcome. This meant we got very little sleep as a family. Although the outdoor space had a lovely outlook, it could have done with a little tlc - the broken concrete was a little unsteady for our young daughter. The stairs are steep - it would be no good for someone with mobility issues (we had to carry our daughter up and down)

The house is fantastic. Beautifully decorated and very well appointed. Kitchen is well kitted out. Beds very comfortable with good quality sheets and towels. The provisions left were also very generous. A fantastic stay.

I know it says it is on street parking, but this was difficult. Having to walk to move the car when a space was available was a distraction from a wonderful stay. We also felt the small garden could have been cared for more, alot of weeds.

Very well refurbished old cottage over 3 floors - just a short stroll through the park to town centre. The local pub is at the end of the street with great staff and wonderful food.

PIR lighting on the landing lights up the entire house when someone goes to the toilet - it would be better of the lighting & Smoke detecter right above the double bed which emits a green light which is a little annoying if you are a light sleeper

Absolutely everything!!! This is the third stay at this gorgeous accommodation. I love the decor, the facilities the location, the views and the owners are very responsive and friendly. Highly recommended.

Nothing it’s perfect

I loved everything about this property. Exceptional standards, decor, facilities and location. Gorgeous interiors, warm cosy and luxurious. Everything you need plus many more additional fantastic features. Refreshing hot powerful showers, underfloor heating, log burner, incredible oven stunning views. I can’t recommend this property enough.

Nothing it was more than perfect.
