There is also a modern kitchen with gas range, large dining room, sitting room and large sunroom. Under-floor heating and wood burner make the cottage delightfully snug in winter.

I went with five men friends, a group that has met since around 1980, for two nights then completed the last three nights with my wife. The property was excellent for both purposes. The location is splendid starting with the views from terrace and windows. The inside is warm, tasteful and practical. An excellent conversion of an old property while maintaining its character.

Loved the house, but a bit more attention needed on the cleaning of it.
6.0 / 10.0
This house is great for a big family - rooms plenty big enough and the kitchen-diner and the outside patio was particularly good. It’s possibly much better to stay in during the summer months rather than November when we visited.
Not good were: a) the interior furnishings and b) the response from the housekeeper when we needed help.
Interior furnishings were dated - probably all installed 20 years ago. The bedding was old and really poor - especially in the twin bedroom, and the towels had seen better days.
It was such a pity, as, with a little investment - eg new towels and white cotton bedding - this could have been so much better.
On arrival, the house was dark and extremely cold - very unwelcoming. The downstairs lights were working but upstairs, we couldn’t switch anything on. We finally found the boiler cupboard and electricity box and discovered that a switch had tripped, so we finally got light upstairs. The heating had also not switched on at all so we had to do that manually, despite being asked not to fiddle with the controls in the house instructions.
We rang the House keeper’s number and the lady’s husband answered and said she would get back to us as a matter of urgency. We then never heard from her all weekend! However, after an hour or so, we had light and heat, so didn’t need her. I feel that for future visits, the heating and lights should be checked ON THE DAY of arrival to avoid our awful first few hours. It really was very disappointing.

Lovely location and amazing views.
We had a really lovely family holiday in Wirksworth and the cottage was a great base for extended family with fabulous views. However for a cottage advertised as luxury, there is a little updating required. Conservatory furniture is quite marked, doors stick, the bathrooms could do with a deep clean and pans in the kitchen could do with updating. We requested the stair gate too and it would have been helpful to know that the one available was for the bottom of the stairs not the top. Access to the property is through a gate shared with a neighbour, which caused no problem, but wasn't mentioned. With all this said, it provided a good central spot for our holiday, and we were able to explore a lot of the surrounding area.

Acacia cottages is a bright and spacious property, well placed to access many attractions in the Peak District. The views from the patio are stunning and our family party of 6 adults particularly enjoyed use of the bright sun room when the weather was less kind. We enjoyed having close access to the High Peak railway cycle path and walks from the door or just a short car ride away.

The accommodation suited our needs 100%. Well equipped kitchen/dining area, comfortable beds and large conservatory with fabulous views. Having a toddler with us meant we were in the property every evening, but it was so relaxing to be able to either sit in the conservatory or on the paved patio. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect views from the house
Perfect views from the house
There were six of us staying in this property. The house itself is lovely and in a perfect location to enjoy the lovely views. A good walk into Wirksworth which has some lovely small shops. Matlock is a short drive, my parents (pensioners) caught the bus from the bottom of the road so the remaining 4 of us could take one car. They said the service bus, every half hour, was excellent. The house had plenty of room and the conservatory and patio area were fabulous. Just a couple of things it seems the housekeeper forgot was the foil in the grill pan and on one of the baking trays were used and had not been changed or removed and there was still ice-cream and frozen chips from the previous guests left in the freezer. Perhaps a little welcome tray with some milk (even if it was UHT), would have been good so we could have a cuppa when we had arrived after our journey. Tea and coffee was available but no milk. We had a lovely weekend and would recommend staying at this house

Hesitate to give a glowing review as it will booked up before we can visit again. Acacia Cottage was truely a wonderful experience from the cleanliness to the amenities provided to the views and the overall layout. If there was a need to bring a person with limited mobility, the access and downstairs bedroom provide an opportunity. Communication with our host Sue and the caretaker was great.
Thank you for hosting our family.

Just returned from a stay at Acacia Cottage, a very nice property well furnished and equipped. More like a home than a rental property. Comfortable beds and seating in the living areas. Adequate outside space to sit and play some games! Parking a little difficult if you have several cars visiting the property. But overall excellent.

Location exceeded expectations
Location exceeded expectations
We had a wonderful break and soon relaxed in the comfort of the cottage. The views from the cottage are amazing and we were lucky enough to have some sunshine to enjoy sitting on the lovely terrace in the peaceful and quiet surroundings.
We enjoyed the many walks from the house and was in awe of the amazing wildflowers in the fields and hedgerows. We also made use of the local train back to Wirksworth having walked to Shottle. Cost £5pp and well worth supporting.
We would stay at the cottage again for the 3 of us as the sitting room is very small. The conservatory was lovely to st in during daylight hours and if there were a couple of table lamps to create some softer warm lighting we would have made use of it in the evening. We did place one of the dining area table lamps in the sitting room and had the wood burner going to make it feel more cosy in the evening.
There was plenty of hot water for showers and the upstairs was lovely and warm. Although some new replacement bed pillows would be welcomed the beds were comfortable.

The weather changed a lot this weekend and was very chilly at night. Our stay would have been perfect if the heating came on and the towel rails were working. The tap in the kitchen is dripping.

Beautiful cottage with wonderful views. The accomodation has everything you could need for a pleasant stay. The beds were very clean and comfortable and the conservatory an added bonus especially as we had some beautiful weather while we were there.
Only one small critism.......we think the cleaner may have missed the kitchen that day. We found a dirty frying pan, a really dirty plate and a toaster in need of a clean in the cupboards. Also dirty trays in the oven (which could do with a deep clean) Also my grandson found a packet of headache tablets in his room but luckily he is old enough and passed them on to his mother for disposal........ BUT overall a lovely property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The location was excellent with numerous historic attractions and places to visit within a short drive as well as picturesque local walks from the cottage. The cottage was also lovely and spacious and in excellent decorative order with wonderful views over the valley from the patio. Will definitely stay again when we return to the area.

This is such a lovely home, with spectacular views across the valley to Wirksworth. The conservatory room was especially popular with our group of 8 adults. The kitchen was very well done with quality counters and appliances and was well-equipped. The cottage was warm and cozy, with ample gathering spaces and comfortable seating groups. This has to be my favorite cottage of all that we have stayed in so far, with several trips booked through VRBO.

Delightful cottage.
Delightful cottage.
Wasn’t as difficult to find as we first imagined, we had been given full instructions by the owner. Had all the amenities we expected although we didn’t use the study come bedroom which we found was quite cool. The underfloor heating was great but did vary from room to room. Is handy for visiting several attractions and we walked down into whirksworth by a path which was very pleasant. Not the best time of the year to see the beauty of Derbyshire but the views from the cottage were tremendous. We will have to return in the warmer months.
