Our reviews are as good as our views

  My husband and I, together with my sister and her husband, stayed at The Farmhouse in July this year.
Steve was on hand to welcome us and to show us... read more the facilities in the cottage, which is part of a conversion of farm buliding in a stunning location.
The cottages cater for children without being designed specifically around their needs.
The Farmhouse is superbly ( and stylishly ) decorated, well equipped and very comfortable.
A small 'honesty' store is a well thought out bonus.
While the rest of the country was basking in sunny weather during our stay, this particular corner of Derbyshire certainly wasn't and the rooms, apart from the sitting room with log burner and the snug with electric heater, were on the cool side.
Try the hot tub - but be aware that it takes a lot longer to heat to an acceptable level than is indicated in the instruction folder - especially if the ambient temperature is cool.
We also had a visit from the well being company which was excellent.
We will almost certainly make a return visit. More

  Stayed in the farmhouse for 2 nights from 22nd July. It was a family members special birthday, 5 of us stayed at the farmhouse. Another couple in our group stayed... read more at the walkers rest cottage next door.

The Farmhouse was Absolutely amazing, couldn’t believe how well equipped it was, literally everything had been thought of.

The kitchen was large, and had everything you needed. Loved the sociable table in the centre, just made the weekend with family even nicer.

The sitting areas where beautiful, and spacious. We were 2 couples and a single person, and we had plenty of room, didn’t feel on top of each other, as the farmhouse had various rooms to relax in.
The snug tv room was my favourite relaxing space.

The bedrooms were fantastic, we stayed in the en suite room which was huge, with lovely views. Bed was so comfy, had the best night sleep.

Bathroom was lovely, with plenty of toiletries, white company which I love.

The hot tub was a lovely added touch.

Such an amazing place well recommended, would love to return More

  To echo many of the other reviews, this place is fabulous! The hosts create such a relaxing atmosphere in a gorgeous part of the peak district. Any signage... read more is written in such a lovely, light hearted way - none of the usual "don't do this', 'don't do that' etc.
There's an honesty shop with a good range of essentials, plus on arrival there was milk, eggs, butter plus other bits in the cottage. The actual accommodation was perfect with high end touches such as white company accessories, Joseph and Joseph in the kitchen. To be honest, it felt more like a hotel in many ways with all the extra touches. There is also a store with items to borrow such as baby gates, extra covers, etc - anything you can think of which you might need during your stay.
We went with our dog and they were massively dog friendly - not a place which only 'tolerates' dogs. There is a field where the pupper can be off lead. Also, our place (Lomas) had a small outside area, front and back, which was gated, with table and chairs out back.
Such an amazing find and we look forward to returning! Thank you!

  Wheeldon Trees Cottages was a delight. The cottages are situated in beautiful countryside. We made use of the free electric car charging. Free use of the e-bikes were also used... read more twice during our stay. TheTissington trail is close by & is excellent for cycling. Our cottage - Ollerenshaw was comfortable & met our needs. The owners are friendly & accommodating. There is a great games room with lots of games, books & DVDs. Wheeldon Trees Cottages is highly recommended.

  I had the opportunity to spend 2 nights at Wheeldon Trees Cottages, precisely from 16-07-22 to 18-07-22.

Where do I start? There's too many positives and surely one of... read more the best place I've ever been in the Uk!

The Cottages are located within a stunning location, surrounded by a stunning countryside and wildlife.

Upon arrival, you will met one of the owners, they are incredibly friendly and accomodating, using a language that it's not the usual 'you can't do this, you can't do that in our property -this happen all the time as we have a dog!-' instead, they makes you confortable and they open their property to you to enjoy; one of the first sentence was 'open that gate (which open up a very large patch of land) so your dog can exercise and enjoy as much as he can!.

What a nice welcome!

The Cottages are stunning and full of character inside and out; we rented a bigger one for our needs (we always do that, just to have that extra-comfort); it was squeeky clean and the attention to detail is outstanding. All the accessories in the cottage are of a very high standards and well known brand (finally no Ikea -no disrpect for Ikea to be clear-). You will also find complimentary (super good) Extra virgin olive oil, milk, butter and fresh eggs (yeah, not the eggs from supermarket but properly fresh eggs from a Chicken! It was nearlyu 30 years I didn't enjoy such fresh eggs!). The owner also gifted us with a super tasty bottle of white wine!

The cottages have a stunning view, overlooking the countryside and it's very easy to have a cow or 2 saying 'hello' on your doorstep (not literally, the cows are confined by those stunning half size stone walls).

The Wifi is excellent (finally!), capable to connect you with very decent speed with the world; the Smart TV is offering Netflix and Amazon prime, a huge plus!

Within the property you can also find an 'honesty shop' with the finest product from the area; you will decide what to pay for them!! You will also find another room with anything you can think of that helps you with the experience of your stay: from iron board, to more crokery, to more pillows, sheets etc.

All for free! The owners clearly knows how to makes a customer happy!

The property also offer a (FREE!!) charging point for Electic veichle if you have one as well as free washing machine with all the necessary to run it!

I've never ever experienced such friendliness, availability and opennes towards guests: I TOTALLY recommend you to book your stay, you will have an amazing experience 360', guarranteed!

We will definitely book again soon!

This beautiful cottage is in the middle of nowhere with plenty of walks very nearby.nearby, but we chose to just chill out and enjoy the fabulous views. The location is near both Buxton and Bakewell, we loved the traditional shops in the latter.
I was particularly impressed that our cottage not only had a large settee and two comfortable lounge chairs but also a riser recliner, so great for disabled person. All in all would thoroughly recommend this and will visit again.

We had gorgeous weather over the weekend which highlighted how stunning the extended property is (all cottages and buildings etc).
We stayed with our dog, Milo,... read more who was more than at home in the two up one down cottage that we had.
Everything we needed and more at the cottage, I.e tv, speaker, fully equipped kitchen and the little welcome pack that we got when we arrived - a really nice little touch.
The property has the added benefit of the honesty bar which is full of everything you need (pasta, sauces, onions, garlic, chocolate, crisps, popcorn, cereal etc etc!) along with laundry and rental bikes (we didn’t take advantage of this).
The location of the cottages is about half an hour away from Chatsworth, we spent a couple of days over that way (Chatsworth + Ladybower) the drive to and from is gorgeous so it didn’t feel that far.
We would definitely return to Wheeldon and stay more local, exploring the local hikes and pubs nearby.
We would definitely recommend a short or long stay Wheeldon Trees, it was exactly what we needed!
Thanks Hazel and Steve 🙂 More

  We stayed in the farmhouse as a group of 6 friends and one toddler, and we had the best time. The farmhouse was amazing in every way, it was so... read more much more spacious than expected, all of the rooms were huge and the master bedroom was incredible with old wooden beams and high ceilings. Pure luxury. Robes and slippers in all the rooms ready for going out to the hot tub in, white company soap and toiletries. All the beds were really comfortable.

The lounge with the log burner was very cosy yet spacious, and relaxing by the fire was wonderful at night.

Literally have nothing bad to say, we all loved our stay and would 100% return, and will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family. More

  We've visited these cottages many times, the first time when eldest was 18 months old, he's now 12 🙂

This was the first time under the new owners... read more and it was just as good, if not better. Steve was very helpful and accomodating wtih our reservation, and really impressed me with his customer service.

The cottages are wonderfully equipped, and were a pleasure to stay in.

The sun came out, we ate outside, our hordes of children (7 boys between 6 months and 14 years) ran riot and had a ball. they ran up and down the hill twice 🙂

SUch a joy to finally see the family again and celebrate Spring and Easter together! More

  This was my third stay in five years at Wheeldon Trees. It is under new ownership and there have been some noticeable small changes that make the experience even better.... read more It has gone from five stars to five stars plus in my humble opinion. Host Steve went the extra mile to make my stay really comfortable and pleasant. The cottage was full of characterful charm, with wood beams and partially exposed old stone walls. The cleanliness, quality fittings, location, peaceful ambience, views and local walks all make Wheeldon Trees stand out. I will be back again, without doubt.

  Stayed in Elliott Cottage in a group of four for a few days on a spring break. Everything here had been planned out so well, with extra touches like... read more well stocked kitchen accessories, white room toiletries, and lovely soft towels leading to a better than your average stay away from home.

We had some inclement weather during our stay and so the 'long room' with games and toys was really great for keeping our young daughter entertained.

Thank you again to Steve & Hazel for a lovely stay.
