Reviews
"Lovely peaceful cottage, in a good location, rooms lovely, bed comfy. Views from garden are so beautiful. No phone signal which was perfect to get away from everything. Good location to explore the peak district."
"This is a really gorgeous quirky cottage with three good sized bedrooms each with their own staircase! It is in the most fabulous location, ideal for visiting Chatsworth, Dove Dale, Matlock etc. The house is so peaceful and quiet with superb views from the windows and a lovely outdoor seating area. We had very good directions (as it could be hard to find just with a satnav) and a visit from the lovely caretaker Mrs Patterson to check all was well. The kitchen was very well equipped (apart from decent frying pans!) with plenty of crockery, glassware and utensils, a good range cooker and dishwasher. The downsides are that house smells of damp dog constantly, which could probably be addressed by replacing the carpets with floor tiles and putting in leather, rather than fabric, sofas. It was not spotlessly clean - lots of aged cobwebs and dust, although the kitchen and bathrooms were sufficiently clean. The house could really benefit from a really good deep clean (which is surprising so early in the holiday season). Also, the beds were not terribly comfortable and had very tired bedding and bedlinen that could definitely benefit from being replaced. Overall, I was delighted with the choice we made though, we had a really wonderful stay and I would recommend this cottage to others."
"What a lovely cottage and a fantastic holiday. The cottage is warm, cosy and comfortable and has everything you can need. It is set in an open garden together with the owners property which has been beautifully landscaped and maintained. We visited with an extended family group and 2 dogs, we all loved it and the dogs loved having free run of the garden. Would love to go back and think at least half of us (an both dogs) would like to move in! Highly recommended!"
"I was lucky to have beautiful weather when I went to Spout cottage, so able to enjoy walks from the front door over fields enjoying wonderful views. The cottage was lovely, well furnished, and plenty of kitchen equipment to feel at home. The bedrooms are very comfortable. I can't fault the cottage and felt very much at home there."
"This cottage is in a beautiful location down a twisting narrow country lane. So quiet and peaceful with lovely views of countryside and llamas! The cottage has been renovated to a high standard and is very comfortable with three bedrooms ingeniously designed. The weather was warm enough for our son to take advantage of the pool while we enjoyed relaxing in the garden. There is plenty to see and do in the surrounding area but, if you do not feel like always negotiating the narrow one lane road, you can always just relax in comfort."
"Holidaying with 3 generations plus a dog it's often hard to find somewhere that suits all but Spout Cottage did just that.It had all the comforts of home for my elderly parents plus walks long and short for the more active amongst us with fabulous views whenever we stepped outside. It had the feeling of complete remoteness but with the nearby villages and Bakewell providing all necessities. We even had to do an emergency car repair and the garage in Youlgrave was able to fit us in at a day's notice!"
"It was absolutely fantastic! For someone who wants somewhere in the middle of nowhere with amazing views and footpath on the doorstep it is perfect. Katya, my german shepherd dog, loved being free to roam around with only lamas to worry her!"
"Excellent cottage clean and tidy, the location was fantastic as well. Only one problem we asked for enclosed garden when we booked, but found no fences at all."
"No problems booking through Sykes. We had the most amazing time. The location was superb, scenery stunning and tranquility bliss. The cottage was clean throughout. Everything was thought of, a proper home from home accomodation. The owner and Mrs Patterson were very welcoming. A real rural retreat and one that we'd highly recommend. Thankyou for a wonderful time. Nat, Sam, Rob and the dogs."
"I have already given my feedback on the holiday in Spout cottage. It was very nice and we all had a lovely time."
"we arrived on the Friday night to a lovely clean warm cottage tucked away on a quiet hillside. Some of our group had the dinner on in a well furnished kitchen, with enough plates for the 8 of us. the lounge was plenty big enough for all of us & the 3 rooms were all of a good size. The next morning we woke to look across the dale at the stunning views. we walked several times over the weekend & couldn't believe what a find the cottage was. By the time Monday morning came, none of us were disappointed to be snowed in! Soon enough a local farmer arrived to tow us up the hill so we could be on our way. Everyone had a really good time & we all want to go back! Best part: the location Worts part: the local pub doesnt serve food!?"
"We arrived at the cottage and received a warm welcome from the housekeeper who gave us lots of useful information. We loved the layout of the cottage, the eco heating system, the lovely spacious ensuite bedroom and the large farmhouse kitchen. The location was beautiful and the views spectacular. The village of Youlgrave a mile away had a good selection of pubs but the butchers was closed for the week we were there and the shops a bit limited. We loved the surrounding walks, the wildlife,the views and the cottage."
