"We stayed at the lodge for a 60th birthday weekend. Upon arrival the lodge was freezing and there was no logs to start a fire and it did state on our email there should be enough logs for our whole stay. The central heating also didn't work. We called the help number and someone came to try to work the heating. Still didnt work ans promised he would be back in the morning with logs as we have brought some by this point. No one turned up. We called again and again. Finally the manager turned up at 5pm with logs but still couldn't get the heating on. Thr heating finally. Came on during the night and turned off in the morning. There was also not adequate kitchen items. Lady bird and fly infestation in the master bedroom. Not very clean as loads of large cobwebs everywhere. Also Netflix didn't work as it said too many people was already using it."

"Our review reflects our stay being made very uncomfortable due to the fact the Lodge was invaded by hundreds of dead/alive lady birds, I mean hundreds! despite reporting to reception and promised a cleaner nobody came. It was obvious by the numerous dead lady birds that this was an ongoing problem. This left us to vacuum up EVERY DAY and this is not what you go away for, this did not keep the ladybirds under control, they were even found in the bedding, all drinks had to be covered Also there was a pair of underpants visibly left under a dressing table, two loaves of bread and other items of food left in a kitchen cupboard which beggars the question about the standard of cleaning here. Also there was no information pack i.e for the alarm, television pin."

" due various things, I forgot week I had booked but the owner and Sykes rebooked me at no cost and no hassle. Not what I had expected from business these days. Found it easily but the entrance is easy to miss and went past it a few times. Had a warm welcome. Off road parking good. Nice kitchen and great country views from the dining room. Lounge comfortable and cosy. Good size bedrooms with very comfortable beds. Basin in bathroom was small but good bath and shower. Lovely garden and conservatory for peace and quiet.Can hear the whistle from the steam railway nearby. Convenient access to main roads and motorway to get about.All the main supermakets convenient.

"A lovely little cottage, very clean with a good level of equipment. The sitting room is cosy with a comfortable sofa and chair and the kitchen is light and airy opening onto the rear courtyard garden. The bathroom is a very good size and well decorated. At the time we stayed, there was building work being undertaken next door but there was no noise and it didn't impact us. The village is very quiet with a couple of pubs but no shop. Close to Ilkeston and about an hour from Bakewell in the Peak District. We enjoyed our 2 day stay at the cottage and would recommend for a couple as there is only one bedroom. Pets are accepted and we had our small dog with us."

"I stayed at this lovely cottage as I had to work in the area. It was tastefully furnished and everything was of such a high quality which helped make my stay extremely comfortable. The attention to detail was impeccable and I loved the little extras like a coffee machine, a welcome pack and some flowers from the garden inside. It was convenient to amenities and to areas of interest in the surrounding areas. The hosts were so kind, welcoming and helpful and I felt like I had made some new friends. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it."
