Really nice apartment
good well furnished apartment in an interesting village. Owners were very friendly and helpful. We were cycling and there are certainly plenty of good hills if you want a bit of a challenge.
Fantastic, we all loved it
Great apartment, in a lovely village
Wirksworth in "darling " Derbyshire, Matlock district
We traveled quit a bit before reaching this lovely apartment ( explored Scotland and Yorkshire). Now we needed to see this area! What a great find! Perched on a hilltop right situated in the middle of this village... This apartment is modern, clean, great bathroom ( important to us Yanks) , spacious with two bedrooms and parking!!! Easy on our doorstep parking!!! Our hosts were helpful and gracious offering in addition a lovely welcome basket. Also offered for your evening entertainment.. Videos, music , lovely books and board games. Within steps you have a mini market, bakery ,restuarant etc no need to move that car! Just walk!
For us, this location offered easy access to the magnificent Chatsworth(which currently has a lovely costume exhibit as well), HAddon Hall a jewel.. Please see Haddon's video on premises, Keddleston, Sudbury, Shurborough estates. The surrounding area also offers pubs,hiking, walking and beautiful vistas. What more can you ask ?
For the price... A bargain. Spent four night here. Became Home!
Clean & comfortable accommodation
Situated in the centre of Wirksworth, the accommodation provides a great base for exploring Derbyshire
Well equipped apartment with access to a garden in which to relax and eat alfresco. Parking which is a must as Wirksworth gets very busy as the roads are narrow
Beds are comfortable and there were ample towels, books & DVDs if weather inclement
Val provided a warm welcome along with a basket of goodies, and offers local information if required
Would recommend staying here if looking for contemporary style accommodation offering everything needed for an enjoyable break
Warm welcome & great apartment
The apartment was stylish, comfortable and contained absolutely everything we needed. The location was great to act as a base to explore the local area and last but not least, the owners were very welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended.
Every year we stay here.
Everything written in the reviews we heartily endorse. This place is fabulous. We have stayed here for three years in a row. We book pretty much as we leave so we don't miss out. We travel around the UK for 10 weeks a year and this is the best apartment we have found.
Note to self: book for 2016
