We had booked for 10 people last minute (as we'd been let down by another holiday let) but couldn't have asked for a better house. Great location, really warm and welcoming with a good hot tub & games room. Would definitely recommend

Great group property - very clean and all the necessities to be able to arrive and enjoy your stay
Very clean, tidy and with a lot of usual additions like travel cots, highchairs, hot tub towels, pans, plates etc. We booked the house to celebrate my parent's 60th birthday and there were a range of ages and the house fitted us all perfectly. Matlock is a lovely little town with lots of great places to eat and drink at.

40th birthday weekend
Property was well maintained and equipped. Spotlessly clean and smelled freshly painted and newly renovated, brilliant location - 5 minutes walk to Matlock centre. Each room has it's own ensuite bathroom and game rooms was good for the young children, the hot tub was big enough for about 7 people but we managed to squeeze 2 kids as well!. The only minor criticism is that we were only supplied with 1 toilet roll per room (for 2 nights) and only 2 dishwasher tablets were left but other then that it was a beautiful Victorian house and a brilliant stay

Excellent stay
Fantastic property in a lovely location. Host responded to queries quickly and the house itself was large enough to have our own space, yet Social spaces for family time. Kids (and grandpa!) loved the games room, which helped on the rainy evenings which was well stocked with plenty of board games as well as pool table and fussball. A dart board would finish it off! Overall, a great property and we would definitely return.

Wonderful family weekend
We had a family weekend for my birthday, 11 in total. The house is very well equipped and most of it has been newly refurbished. Plenty of space and the grandchildren loved the games room and hot tub. The only thing that could have been improved were the towels, not really bath sheets and with the hot tub there were a lot of showers. We might make it a regular event.

Family Birthday
Great location, 2 min walk into Matlock. Fantastic house, lots of character and perfect for a large family , although needs some TLC on decor and facilities. Advertised with a Hot tub which was fantastic , and also a Sauna which we never found. Games room in the cellar really good for our family although pool table warped and half of the lights didn't work. Overall a great weekend.

Andy Thorndike

Nice place, but dated and with some issues
The property is a good size and in a good, central location. However, it is in need of some TLC as there are many snags: The house was very cold when we arrived - thermostat stated 13 degrees - and we had to program the heating (without instructions) and bleed radiators to make it comfortable. One of the showers didn't drain, so was unusable. Some lights/light switches didn't work. Lots of items in the kitchen were grubby and required cleaning before we could use them. Wallpaper in some rooms was peeling due to damp. The football table and pool table were damaged. There were positives: Bedrooms were a good size. We enjoyed the board games. The hot tub was fun. As an extended family, we enjoyed the get together, but wouldn't return to the property.
