Waterfall Cottage receives glowing praise for its peaceful rural setting, charming and attentive hosts, and cosy, well-equipped interiors. Guests consistently highlight the beautiful walks, proximity to local attractions, and the warm welcome provided by the owners. Many appreciated the personal touches and cleanliness, with only minor suggestions for updating bedding and mattresses. The cottage is especially recommended for couples and small families seeking a relaxing base to explore the Peak District.
Multiple reviews describe the cottage as spotlessly clean, tidy, and well-maintained, with no significant complaints about cleanliness.
The location is frequently praised for its tranquillity, scenic walks, and easy access to Matlock and the Peak District, making it ideal for both walkers and those wishing to explore the area.
Guests found the cottage cosy and comfortable, with central heating and a wood burner. A few mentioned dated bedding or a creaky mattress, but these were minor issues compared to the overall comfort.
The cottage is described as well-equipped, with a modern kitchen, rain shower, dishwasher, and laundry facilities. Some noted the bathroom is small for four adults, and a couple of minor TV or Wi-Fi issues were quickly resolved.
Guests repeatedly mention the hosts’ thoughtful gestures, such as welcome packs, homemade treats, and birthday surprises. Please note that while many guests received gifts, these are not guaranteed for every stay.

Waterfall Cottage is a renovated barn conversion just a stone’s throw from the stunning Lumsdale Waterfall in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with historic mill ruins and ponds dating back to the Industrial Age. Situated within the owner’s extensive 16-acre grounds looking out on to open fields, this charming cottage offers light and airy accommodation all on one level. This stunning property has an open plan layout with the living room having oak beams and a wood burner. The large patio doors open out on to a secluded patio with garden furniture and a BBQ. Stone steps lead from the patio to a private grass area for further relaxation. There are two bedrooms: one with a kingsize bed, and the other with twin beds. The shower room has a large walk-in shower.
Outside, visitors can also enjoy a spacious open area with garden ponds and a stream. These grounds, which are shared with the neighbouring holiday cottage, are very large and provide the ideal place where you can fly kites, play ball games or just to relax on a quiet evening watching the sun set whilst enjoying a spot of alfresco dining.
Here at Waterfall Cottage you have the best of both worlds: wonderful walks in the surrounding open Derbyshire countryside, and for days out, you are within close proximity to all the major tourist attractions the Derbyshire Dales have to offer. Certainly an idyllic rural retreat, yet the historic spa town of Matlock is only a mile away with its award-winning park where band concerts can be enjoyed on a Sunday summer afternoon, and where an annual Christmas Victorian Market is held in December. Matlock Bath, named the little Switzerland of England, is just a couple of miles away and the famous illuminations are held here each year in September. Shop, pub and restaurant 1 mile.
Waterfall Cottage can be booked together with Water Bailiffs Lodge (CC418024) to accommodate up to 12 guests.
Children must be supervised on site due to possible safety hazards.
There is open water in the property grounds.
