Hadn't realised no onsite parking and had to move the car away from the house so was a bit of a pain with the other vehicles who parked to go walking , lovely little cottage a bit tired in areas but was a perfect getaway spot for some much needed r and r ,there was wifi so we we're able to use our own apps on our telephones to use the tv . The area is absolutely beautiful and the Chapel tearooms over the road was the most amazing afternoon tea I've ever tasted and highly reccomend they so like to have 48hours notice to do but you will not be disappointed.

Fell in love with this property, feels like home. It has everything one needs. We loved the window shutters, comfortable sofas, great kitchen. Only thing missing is a double bed.Hollingclough is simply stunning, we hope to return next year.Ideal for local walks and the nearby villages have some adorable pubs ready to quench ones thirst after a long days hike.We recommend climbing the dragons back.

We frequently stay in holiday properties and so know what you can get for £140 / night and sadly this was not up to the standards we would expect. The cottage is lovely, in a lovely sertting but it is very damp with mould around the windows and mildew on the curtains. It was not clean, the tiles in the bathroom were mouldy, under the furniture were dead woodlouse and other remnants of insects, cobwebs everywhere and the lavatory off the main bedroom was very poorly cleaned. The beds were very comfortable but the bedding felt damp. There are no instructions on how to heat the water. The house does have heating but this is controlled remotely by the host which isn't a viable option if you get in late or the weather is variable. The garden is overgrown and the lawn unkempt. The house is a good base for walking in the area, but not somewhere you would wish to spend time in. We ate out every evening and spent time playing cards and games at the local Buxton Brewery taproom just to avoid going back to the house. It just needs a lick of paint, constant low level heating for the damp and a proper clean and it would have been ideal.

Peaceful location; in the heart of the Derbyshire countryside but also an easy commute to places of interest. Comfortable cottage that stays cool in hot weather!

The house and host were fantastic we had such a good time! It sits in a lovely quiet village that has a wonderful honesty shop a short walk away. The host was incredibly helpful and made us feel very welcome. Surrounded by beautiful views and great areas to walk. We had a short stay but it was perfect!

Cosy base for our stay in a stunning area

My family and I (including two teenage daughters) and our dog have just spent a delightful week in Hollinsclough and Vicarage Cottage was the perfect base for our stay. Clean, cosy and with everything we needed for days out walking the stunning surrounding countryside or cosying up when the weather wasn't great! Perfect mix of practicality and quirky charm. My daughters loved the fact that the WiFi was more than up to speed! And we all enjoyed the games room and DVD selection to pass the wet weather days. We were never cold in the cottage despite it being a particularly cold week - and our two year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel was very happily settled too - we used the fire grate across the stairs at night and he was only too happy to stick to his own dog bed! Already planning a return visit as there's so much in the area that we would love to explore. Great communication with the property owner too from start to finish 😊

This is a great spot for a short stay with wonderful walks from the doorstep and a very peaceful atmosphere. The place is comfortable and meets all basic needs, the only qualm was that the kitchen and bathroom really do need a proper deep clean as it doesn't look like that's been done for a quite some time. Made us feel a bit sick at times. Otherwise, a great little cottage.

We enjoyed a half term break here with our dog and electric car. Mark put in a socket to enable us to charge our car overnight - brilliant! The cottage had everything we needed and was comfortable and warm. The surrounding countryside is beautiful with good walks straight from the front door and we enjoyed the local honesty café.

Excellent location with amazing scenery and wildlife on the doorstep

Excelllent location but property was a bit tired in places. It was lovely and warm with plenty of hot water. The grill only worked intermittently and there was a shortage of sharp knives. The main issue we all had were the mattresses on the beds and the fact we all had to take our own sheets and towels. Whist appreciating the current situation most rentals simply ask you to strip the beds and put all linen in a bag to go for laundry. We would still stay here again and hope the comments are received as helpful.

Sweet little cottage.

Sweet little cottage.

Everything we needed for a short stay. The owner was very responsive when we reported a few glitches and fixed it the next day, and was very friendly. Furnishings were basic but adequate - it’s not the priciest place to stay! The cottage itself is very pretty inside and out - but a little more attention to cleanliness wouldn’t have gone amiss, especially in these Covid times. Nothing terrible - just dust under furniture and dirty mirrors and cupboard handles etc. A whizz round with antibacterial sprays etc made us feel better but I would have preferred not to feel I needed to do that. The China, cutlery etc was all very clean and shiny - no problems there. All in all, a pleasant stay in a beautiful location.

Peak break

Loved the cottage, love the area, the cleanliness was apporling. Sofa in the living room mouldy, stained cushions and pillows, dust all over, windows covered in cobwebs and dirt, beatles in the bedroom, fridge needs replacing . Kitchen cupboards haven't been cleaned for a long time.We had to buy a dinner set, cooking utensils , glasses and throws also airfreshners due too the smell. Such a shame as its potentially the perfect cottage.

Vicarage Cottage is in a picturesque, peaceful hamlet in the heart of the white Peak District. It is warm and cosy with copious amounts of hot water which is welcoming after a long day walking. We are a family of 6 and the Cottage was a little cramped. It is probably more suited to 4 people. There were some issues with cleanliness and maintenance. We have raised these directly with the owner, as the property does not meet the usual standards we have come to expect from HomeAway.

A nice cottage in a quiet spot at the end of the summer season. A little tired in places and in need of a bit TLC but nevertheless a comfortable stay. The cooker and shower head needs updating still as mentioned by others. Lounge setting is lovely with nice polished floor. The beds are fine and the heating worked well too. The entrance to the garden hedge was overgrown so walking up the path after a wet days trekking with the dog or when walking him at night was difficult. This is a good cottage in a good location for local walks and trips out but with a bit of money spent on it it could be an excellent one.

LONG WEEKEND RETREAT

LONG WEEKEND RETREAT

We took our teenage daughter and 2 friends and our dog for a long weekend. We dropped the girls at Alton Towers (45 minute drive) and then explored and enjoyed the countryside with the dog. The cottage was lovely. Very comfortable with everything we needed. Plenty of room for all of us, with washing machine and dish washer. I would love to visit again although the drive from Kent (M25 & M1) were the only thing that detracted from our enjoyment. Jaki & Dave

Beautiful location but cottage in need of tlc

Beautiful location but cottage in need of tlc

This cottage is set in a very picturesque location, but be warned, some of the access roads, although affording spectacular scenery, are single lane and pretty scary in places. There is no parking directly beside the property but there is parking available locally. For anything but very basic groceries, you will have to travel over 7 miles to Buxton. The cottage itself is quite sweet but you will have to watch your head on the door frames if you are tall. Wi-fi in the cottage is good but we had no phone signal. I was disappointed with a number of issues concerning the cleanliness and upkeep of the cottage There was dust so thick in places in the living room that previous holiday makers had actually written a message in it. The shower head was held in place by an elastic band. I don't mind a few cobwebs, but it is not pleasant when they are in the crockery cupboard. More worrying was the fact that the only smoke detector was hanging by wires from the stairwell ceiling; I couldn't reach it to test if it was actually functioning, I feel that, from a health and safety standpoint, it should be easily accessible.

Lovely peaceful retreat near many attractions

Lovely peaceful retreat near many attractions

The cottage was a lovely place for myself and my two children to stay. Situated in the very quiet hamlet of Hollinsclough, the cottage had a large tranquil lounge and two bedrooms, one with 2 single beds and the other with 3, the basic Sky TV package and excellent wifi. Since the children stayed in the room with 3 beds which also had an attached toilet, I was able to get plenty of rest and had the use of the family bathroom. Hollinsclough took a bit of finding at first but once we had a handle on the geography, it was easy to find. A car is essential and care needs to be taken on some of the single track roads because of on-coming vehicles around blind bends. The cottage was very conveniently situated for our holiday. Buxton which is a 10 minute drive away has two large supermarkets, 3 small ones and an abundance of restaurants - we particularly liked the Lone Star bar & grill but would advise booking. There are also many great excursions that can all be reached within 30 minutes drive of the cottage - walking the Monsal Trail, Treak Cliff cavern, Alton Towers and even an excellent go-karting circuit. At the end of a busy day it was a pleasure coming back to the peace of Vicarage cottage. Mark the owner was easy to get hold of if needed and we would happily stay at the cottage again.

Very homely cottage

The cottage is very homely and the owner has taken the trouble to make it so; it also has character. We were a family of four (14 and 10 yr old) and it is as spacious as it appeared in the photos. It is also well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed its peaceful and serene location, with hardly any vehicles passing through the entire week. There are some lovely walks from the door so the car can be left behind; the view from Chrome Hill is expansive and breathtaking. We also enjoyed the dairy cows from the next door farm filing pas twice a day for the first part of the week. We hope to return in the future!

Beautiful spot in the Peaks

Beautiful spot in the Peaks

Very pretty cottage on the edge of The Peak National Park, great base for exploring the fantastic countryside. Very quaint cottage, had pretty much everything you could need. I have a couple of grumbles, some of the information leaflets were extremely out of date and it would have been nice to have maps of some of the walks close to the cottage. There was a rather overwhelming smell of damp in the cupboard in the lounge which had made the beddIng for the sofa rather unpleasant to use. But overall we had a wonderful visit and a thorough fantastic holiday

Unfortunately we had to cut short our intended week's stay because of an unexpected death in the family, and apart from one good day in Buxton, we were unable to achieve our other planned outings.

Spacious cottage in idyllic surroundings

Spacious cottage in idyllic surroundings

Vicarage Cottage is in Hollinsclough in the southwestern part of the Peak District and on the Staffordshire side of the border. We were fortunate to get 2 1/2 days of sunshine. Access is along very narrow roads and once there you are quite isolated. The only noise is from cows and birds. The house is on two floors and the stairs are quite steep-- at least for toddlers. It was a bit cold in the morning but one can light a fire. The kitchen is more than adequate. There is a Methodist Church next door and even a school, surprising in such a tiny village. Buxton is a short drive and the nearest grocery store is in Longnor, 3 kms away. Our only complaint is that the two cribs promised upon booking were not provided. Otherwise we had a wonderful stay.

Really lovely 3 night stay. We had everything we needed. The owner called past to make sure we were happy but didn't intrude. Kids loved playing outdoors and slept great with all the fresh air. Surrounding countryside great for walks but close enough to lots of places to visit to keep everyone occupied. Highly recommend for a simple, relaxing getaway. Climbing the hill behind was a highlight of our stay. We will be back.

Lovely cottage, very well equipped in a simply beautiful location. More than handy for Buxton and the Peak District as a whole, with top rambling galore on your doorstep. Well stocked store and two pubs in Longnor which is the best part of a 2 mile walk along the lanes. The Grapes Hotel is has a splendid authentic bar with a generous selection of Gins and a great atmosphere. If you're looking to escape to the country with some of the best landsape and scenery the UK has to offer, don't hesitate to book this cottage. Jason
