Friends weekend away

Had a great stay at Lisa’s place. Excellent common spaces and rear terrace, well equipped kitchen, lovely bedrooms (except the 3 x single room felt a bit cramped - best for smaller children rather than adults or near adults). Terrific value for money 👍

Family holiday

Excellent accommodation for our three generational family holiday. The table football was well used by the younger and not so young family members. Plenty of pans, cutlery and crockery. Comfortable sofas for all the family. We had a verycomfortable stay.

Great family Christmas

We had everything we needed, the place was amazing for entertaining. The table football was a great hit and the wood stove kept us all toasty. The station is a very short walk away where we took the train into Matlock Bath and had good fun. Would definitely recommend this house
