Cottage vacation rentals in Matlock

Lia is a perfectionist! She generously shares her home with guests & makes sure you have every thing you need. Three generations thoroughly enjoyed the ‘magical’ house & garden on the longest day of the year ! Thank you Thank you

We spent 3 nights at Jack’s cottage and it was absolutely perfect for some much needed downtime. Fantastic location, beautiful cosy cottage, the hot tub was a brilliant feature and Matthew was on hand for any questions. The house is spotless, quirky with pops of pink, has available parking and a lovely quiet private garden. The location is fantastic for curbar edge, froggatt and trips to Bakewell and surrounding areas. We decided we’d look to book again before we’d even stayed the first night! Highly recommend this little gem in lovely Derbyshire.

We have just returned from a stay at The Stables. We both loved the accommodation and the location. The hosts made us feel very welcome and there was some lovely touches inside for when we arrived. The location is very peaceful and tucked away but also within walking distance of several pubs all serving good quality food for reasonable prices. We would recommend and come back again without question.

Very cosy, stylish and relaxing place to stay - lovely views, great pub 5 mins walk away and lots to do in the local area. Highly recommended!

I lovely location and a well equipped comfortable cottage. There’s lots to do in the area. We would definitely recommend. The alpaca walk was just great !

Caroline's place was lovely, a peaceful break in the countryside! A reasonable distance from some of the attractions of the Peak District, including the Tissington Trail and Thor's Cave. The village was quaint and we had a lovely meal in the local pub, The Sycamore (recommended by Caroline). The only downside was the typical British summer weather raining down on us - wish us better luck next time!

Excellent host very responsive and friendly. Beautifully clean property looked just like the photos. Very friendly animals! Would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. It was very clean and beautifully decorated. The hot tub was a lovely touch and felt very private. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Such an amazing place with all elements beautiful crafted to create a warm and inviting space. Had the best stay here, with such a responsive and informative host !! Wish we could’ve stayed longer as we felt right at home. Everything was so well thought out and with the best intentions as well, Tupperware, a thermos, large brollies etc etc The most enchanting place !! <3

I visited chee dale lodge with my partner and our young Labrador, and we had a lovely week long stay. The lodge is comfortable and well-equipped with an oven, stove, microwave, and fridge freezer. There were plenty of pots and pans, and salt and pepper to cook with, but no oil (I'd recommend bringing your own). For the dog, there was a good sized grass area, with a bin, a short distance from our doorstep. There is lots of nature to enjoy in the local area. In particular, we enjoyed visiting Luds church, three shires head, and the monsal trail. This was a great base, with most places we wanted to visit being 20 mins away or less. Highly recommend!

Very walkable location! We stayed here because of chatsworth house and kept saying how much we love the area! The kitchen was stocked with essentials. The stairs were a little steep but nothing we couldn’t handle with a little bit of caution and the railing. Absolutely lovely stay! Thank you!

Just got back from a few days at The Gatehouse (or Fred's Shed). It was a wonderful place made so much more so by John and Pam. I arrived and was greeted by John who showed me round, imparted a huge amount of really helpful local knowledge and assured me that help was just a door knock away if needed. Pam had left a mountain of goodies to ensure I didn't go hungry, catering for my four legged friend as well. We were out walking the hills every day and this was a lovely bolthole to return to. being a stone cottage it remains cool even when temperatures outside rocket. John recommended a variety of local walks, pubs, and tea rooms. We tried the one in the village and had a wonderful meal. Sure The Gatehouse is not a mansion, but the use of space is mind-blowing, so there really is everything we needed. The setting is so peaceful and rural, walks straight from the doorstep, it's worth giving the car a break. John was so helpful, friendly and easy going. Would I return... absolutely!

Wow ! What an incredibly lovely spacious house . Beautiful garden and lovely walks close by . We loved it . Will definitely be back with the in laws . Our dog loved it too .

Hi there, We recently had the pleasure of staying at this lovely cottage and wanted to take a moment to share my thoughts and feedback. Firstly, I must say that the location is perfect for investigating the stunning beauty of the Peak District ! The picturesque views and serene surroundings made for a truly relaxing getaway. The cottage itself was cosy and well-maintained, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail in the decor really added to the charm and made it feel like a home away from home. Overall, I had a wonderful time and would highly recommend your cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat. Thank you for providing such a lovely space for us to enjoy. I look forward to the possibility of returning in the future. Best regards, Steve & Tracy Clark

A fantastic, cosy cottage in very peaceful surroundings. John and Vicky have thought of everything you might need and all the fixtures, fittings and equipment were of good quality. The extra little touches such as home made bread were also much appreciated. We walked for miles from the front door, and the lanes were very quiet. There are also several footpaths heading in all directions across the local fields. The location is perfect if you want to get away from it all, but also close enough to drive to local villages with pubs and cafes etc. John and Vicky are perfect hosts - always available when needed but left us to ourselves. Highly recommended!

What a beautiful place, so quaint with lovely walks in the area too. Caroline was a great host, the brownies on arrival were just the icing on the cake

Somehow the little cottage is even better than the pictures! We LOVED our stay and plan on returning. Very quiet, peaceful, and cozy.

The whole property was exactly as described and photographed, but even better bearing in mind all details covered. Things like a kitchen equipped with quality items and a lovely welcome pack of goodies to welcome us were really appreciated. The bedding was of good quality and cosy, and signage within the property was minimal and well judged. All in all a very professional presentation making a very pleasurable stay. Thank you.

Mandy's place was perfect for our visit to the Peak District. A lovely historic cottage restored to being very comfortable with all the amenities we needed and more. wonderful village shop and tea rooms across the road for delicious bites and little items to make our stay just right. Mandy was very responsive with helpful guides on local pubs and food options.

Lovely cottage ,perfectly situated for all amenities. The cottage was as described in the listing. Nice touch of welcome note and bottle of wine. We were able to park car in front of cottage ,we didnt need to move it during our stay as we walked or used the regular buses with the bus stop 1 minute away.

Set in the beautiful rolling countryside of Derbyshire the cottage is a lovely retreat . Beautiful gardens and the heated pool were a real treat. This well equipped cottage in the Derwent valley is really well located for Chatsworth and Bakewell and has numerous walking routes provided. The cottage is extremely comfortable, well furnished and has a lovely view overlooking the valley

What a beautiful little cottage. Everything was very clean and tidy. I loved how peaceful it was, waking up to bird song and nothing else was amazing. The garden was also a great place to relax

Lovely cottage and amazing location. So peaceful and beautiful views. Would love to stay again when visit the Peak District.

Just returned from a wonderful 4 night break at Harewood Cottage. The cottage was cosy, clean, beautifully appointed and an easy walk to the trails from the doorstep. It was very peaceful and private and to sit in the garden in the sun was a lovely, unexpected treat. So quiet, just birds chirping in a beautiful setting. Julia was a perfect host, thank you 🤩
