This is a beautifully put together house and it was immaculately clean throughout. Check-in was no problem and the location was great. If you are not a good walker, you might struggle with the trudge up the steep hill from Matlock to the house: we decided it meant the cheese and wine was well earned!! There is some confusion in the listing about the bedrooms: B1 is listed as having a king size bed: the picture is of the smallest room which has a small double. The other two rooms have regular-sized doubles - there is no king bed (in case that is a deal breaker for anyone).We enjoyed the welcome pack of white wine, cookies and flowers - a lovely touch. Communication with the letting company was a bit patchy in places: I asked about coffee facilities and was told it was just a kettle: in fact there was a cafetiere. I asked if there was an ice cube tray - did not get a reply to this. Finally, there was no shampoo or shower gel provided despite these being listed - the agency insisted they had been provided. These little oversights did not mar a wonderful stay in a beautiful, tranquil and well-equipped home. Thank you.

Check in process and information was great. The house was lovely and a good size for 5 adults and a dog.It was good to have allocated parking for 1 car (although this was tricky) and we had no trouble parking another on the streetOverall a good house in a good location

We loved staying in Charlie’s property. It was very clean and well maintained and was a gem. Parking was tricky round the back but plenty of on street parking was available. A few trips down the hill into town certainly built the glutes on the return up the hill! Highly recommend Stones restaurant and Sourdough Dave’s bakery for bread in the morning. Matlock is a lovely town and well positioned for walking (Dovedale, Edale, etc all within 30mins) or visiting Bakewell or Chatsworth House.Perfect house for a perfect trip! Thanks Charlie!
