Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The accommodation was fantastic, staff were really friendly and the price was really good. Staff were always on hand to help day and night and the atmosphere was very relaxed. It was nice to have a drink in the small bar and the kids appreciated the mini games room and gift shop. We went on the coldest day of the year so was a little bit of a shame the room had one storage heater that was controlled centrally by WiFi as in the morning we were cold but as soon as the staff were informed they instantly turned the heating back on for us. We will certainly go back in the summer months and stay again. Thanks for a memorable stay.

Great location

Amazing location. Quirky hotel but the cleanliness in our room was abysmal. Didn't stay for food as we went down into Matlock Bath which was in walking distance. The staff deserve full praise, they were really nice and attentive.

Been before and really central to everything although the accommodation has went down hill in my opinion. Bathroom didnt have a nice smell stained glass at bottom of shower door, toilet had yellow marks around rim of seat and around the fixings. Cant remember if they had a fridge last time we stayed but didnt this time and really needs one. 3 people staying and only 2 cups. Still had a lovely time overall.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Breakfast was unavailable although I was under the impression from the information given beforehand that a continental breakfast was available. Likewise, unless mistaken, I had been led to believe that there was daily housekeeping but this did not take place. The wi-fi worked well but a couple of channels didn't work for the latter part of the stay from the minimum choice of television stations provided. However, it was a good stay all in all: the room was clean and the outlook was very scenic - I basically had a pleasant , enjoyable time there. It was reasonably convenient of access to the local amenities and facilities in Matlock Bath although it was a bit of a haul up and down the hill to the hotel! The staff was pleasant. I did feel slightly cold in the room occasionally.

Very relaxing stay

Great little place for a night away with kids, basic but comfortable. The thing we loved was the little courtyard with plenty of tabkes and chairs outside the cabins where you could see your child playing on the play equipment whilst chilling. Only stayed in the basic cabin and didnt upgrade to the princess rooms but from what we could see, it was a much better set up in these to be able to keep a close watch on you child. Made it a relaxing stay and would defo use again.

Was a lovely little room. Clean and cozy. Down points are that room was too hot with no means to cool it down and no spoons or stirrers to make the drinks. Would deffo recommend but if your like me and get hot too quick then ask for a room with aircon.

Rooms smelled very bad!

After reading the reviews I was looking forward to this stay however I was in shock with how different it was. The smell of our princess suite was awful, absolutely damp and the bathroom was the worst. A very very strong smell of sewage and body odour. We found it really uncomfortable to sleep in but the kids bunk beds were the nicest bit. They enjoyed themselves so I would say this is not worth the money at all
