Cherry Tree Cottage, CASTLETON, PEAK DISTRICT

Rated 1/50 by Stephen T on 28th February 2020

"My wife and I booked the cottage via Sykes and the booking couldn't have gone more smoothly. The staff at Sykes were so helpful and we paid for the 3 day break in full. The problems began about a week before we were due to go. My wife is 31 weeks pregnant and the Coronovirus has been headline news for some weeks. We found out there was a reported case within 10 minutes of the cottage. My wife and I obviously had some concerns. We contacted Sykes and raised our concerns. The staff fully appreciated our worries and when we asked if we could possibly rearrange our trip they informed us they had vacancies during November 2020 which we would have readily accepted. However, Sykes informed us that before they could change our booking, they would have to contact the owners but that they did not foresee any problem. A short while later we were contacted by staff from Sykes who expressed sincere apologies but apparently the cottage owners refused to allow us to reschedule and refused a refund of any amount. To say we are upset with the owners decision is a understatement as we were so looking forward to the trip but felt we simply couldn't put my wife's health and that of our 3 year old son's at risk. It just a shame the owners couldn't have been a little more understanding. We fully appreciate this is a business but this was merely a cancellation due to bad weather or upset stomach but, in my opinion, a far more serious set of circumstances. I do hope others might follow our lead when they read this review."

"We enjoyed our recent stay in cherry tree cottage ,we found the cottage to be in the perfect place so you do not have to use your car to explore castleton and the surrounding area , for us castleton is our favourite part of the peak district ,good walks in every direction,fantastic views,great pubs serving excellent food & beers. Cherry tree cottage is also excellent we could not find one fault there ,exceptionally clean,its been restored with a lot of thought and attention to detail owners leaving in lots of little reminders of the cottages history ,very comfortable,it has everything you need for a perfect holiday .would like to thank the owners for cake,milk etc ,it was very much appreciated. Would not hesitate to book again "if we are lucky enough to get in"."

"The cottage has been renovated to an extremely high standard with fit and finish perfect throughout, It's stunning. The owners have equipped the cottage with everything even supplying cling film and tin foil for example and the bedding and towels are high quality. The position of the cottage is perfect, Everything in the village is a 5 min walk away. If you are staying intending to go for some walks in area, numerous trails you will find online go right by the front door. Buxton is 15mins drive, Chatsworth 30mins and Trafford Centre 50mins so whatever your reason for visiting the area, you'll be hard pushed to beat this place. We don't normally return to the same place as there are so many places to visit, but we're are definitely returning to the cottage in a couple of years."

"Just returned from a three night break at this beautiful cottage and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. It is really comfortable and spotlessly clean. The location is ideal, right in the centre close to the local pubs and restaurants and easy accessible for walking in and around Castleton. The owners have paid every attention to detail, tastefully furnished with everything you would need from a fully equipped kitchen to music and board games. The log burner was a treat and so relaxing. Highly recommend and will return when we can."

"Spent a fantastic weekend here celebrating my parents birthdays. Great location and facilities. The cottage has been renovated to the highest standard and the service was second to none. The owners have gone the extra mile to make us feel special and even left Birthday cards and presents for Mum and Dad"

"Cherry tree cottage offers superb modern conveniences with a beautiful location and all the traditional features . The accommodation is truly 5 star very tastefully restored and decorated and above all the attention to detail is perfect . The village itself is stunning and we had the benefit of the Christmas lights and the warm friendly atmosphere of the pups and the fantastic food served in them all ,very difficult to rate them as the three we had a meal in were brilliant . Mark and Christine have made the cottage a place to relax and enjoy a break for all ages we are planning a return visit next year ,We would highly recommend this fantastic holiday cottage we guarantee you will not be disappointed ."

"Cherry Tree Cottage offers the best of both worlds - a picture book traditional cottage in a beautiful location but lovingly updated and with all the modern conveniences you could possibly want. It is tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. Christine and Mark, the owners, provided immaculate customer care from the time of booking through to the end of our stay. For example we asked whether a summer weight duvet was available - and shortly after a summer weight duvet appeared. This is a new venture for Christine and Mark and we were amongst the first few guests to stay, but it's clear this will be a success."

"My partner and I have just had a 3 night stay in the cherry tree cottage and we're both already planning a return trip!! The cottage was perfect, very cosy, very modern but still with traditional features :) The village of Castleton itself has stunning walks, castle, church and plenty of pubs!! We tried them all and had a fun time sampling local drinks and food! We would highly recommend this lovely little cottage, you wont be disappointed!! xx"
