This cottage needs a thorough deep clean. There was black mould on the windows, the floor in the bathroom needs replacing, the kitchen sink plughole is rusty and the shower cubicle in the ensuite has black mould around the base. All of these could be rectified by cleaning. In addition, towels and bedding were of a poor standard. On a positive Read morenote, the house was well equipped and is in a great location for exploring the Peak District Hide

The cottage was as described in the advert. Owner was welcoming leaving a packet of biscuits, milk & alcohol on our arrival! Clean towels & a flannel provided. Received timely useful instructions prior to our arrival, & prior to our departure! I would definitely use again, & recommend to other potential customers!

This cottage is a very convenient place for visiting the Peak District and exploring the surrounding area. Your little black book was very helpful and we found lots of good places to eat from recommendations in it. All in all it has been a very enjoyable week for us. Thank you.

We were impressed with the quality of items in the kitchen Didnt want for anything The gifts left by the owner were much appreciated The only problem we had was the downstairs shower was a bit temperamental and kept sliding down Im sure it is an easy fix but we purchased a small clip which did the trick

Thank you for a lovely week. Despite the weather forecast we have missed the rain. Chatsworth Show was a good day out and we have made use of our National Trust membership and visited Hardwick Hall and Little Morton Hall (worth the drive, the scenery was amazing). We even saw the carnival at Eyam. The cottage was cosy and we much appreciated the liRead morettle extras. Hide

The property was fine for us but a bit dated - old cupboards in the kitchen etc. And the bed was SO SQUEAKY! (as well as too short for my 6' body, but I'm pretty used to that). I'd rather have had the mattress on the floor than that!!

Thank you for a lovely stay in Undercroft. We were able to gather all our family together (with the help of Dormy cottage just down the road) and it was a very special time. Our 2 year old grandson loved the magic garden!
