• "This was one of the best cottages we have stayed in."

  The showers were amazing, the property was really clean, it was very well equipped and everything was of a high standard. We used the stove in the evenings which made it very cosy and great that logs and kindling were supplied. Best of all was the location. We walked up to Stanage Edge in 45 minutes and there are lovely walks through the valley. Brilliant stay, thank you.

• "We stayed at 1 Orchard View for a week in the middle of March."

  As soon as we got to the cottage we loved it. The terrace garden was absolutely lovely to sit out on at the top and just chill with a cuppa and a podcast whilst enjoying the view and the peace and quiet. The cottage itself had everything you could need and was like a home from home. Really comfortable and well set out. Hathersage is a great base for some lovely walks and running. There is a great 6 mile loop from Castleton, up to Mam Tor and back down, and also Stannage Edge is only up the road. There is a great running route from Hathersage all the way into Hope, just turn around when ever you want to come back!!!. The Tissington Trail is also a fabulous bike route with amazing views. Don't hesitate to book, we will definitely return. We can recommend the Old Hall Hotel in Hope for dinner and also The Royal Oak in Hurdlow.

• "Really lovely home situated in a beautifully picturesque village."

  The whole house was spotless, and equipped with everything we could've needed, the welcome pack was great. We stayed as a group of 6, and there was plenty of space for all of us, and the kitchen table was a great size. Plenty of information in the guest book, and loads of good recommendations. We took a trip to Longshaw estate, Hathersage pool and the restaurant at the Scotsmans Pack. All were fantastic and highly recommend! Only thing we noticed, that isn't necessarily an issue but something to be aware of before booking is that the property is quite overlooked, and the garden is not secure. Didn't stop us from having a fantastic time and making use of the stunning garden though!

• "1 Orchard View is a fabulous cottage."

  It is a great place to relax whatever the weather. We had a couple of cold days that allowed us to enjoy the log burner! We found that we could manage to get our Mondeo down the lane and into the parking space with care. Being located in Hathersage the cottage is a perfect base for local walks - we enjoyed a great walk from the cottage up to and along Stannage Edge - and also for local attractions such a the Longshaw Estate, Padley Gorge, Eyam, Castleton Caves, The Great Ridge and Mam Tor. We would happily book to stay at 1 Orchard View again. The owners are lovely and so helpful.

• "This was our second stay at Orchard View."

  We love the area & the cottage is a fabulous base. We stayed with the same friends as last year & all felt that the bathrooms need a thorough clean. Mainly the excessive build up of mildew & mould around the silicone finishes. It’s a little smelly & feels quite uncomfortable when showering. Apart from this, everything about the cottage was great.

  She was so overwhelmed, as were we. Fantastic location, stunning views. The property was excellent with everything you could possibly ask for, clean, comfortable and homely, with a stunning log fire. The kitchen was well stocked with every utensil you could possibly require, we even cancelled dinner reservations just to eat in the cottage. Lovely walks from Hathersage to Bamford Edge and back and even had a swim at Hathersage Lido. A Fantastic, beautiful, and cosy cottage with a modern feel. Thank you for making our short break a memorable one for all the right reasons.

• "Loved everything about the cottage."

  Very comfortable lounge, with nice leather sofas. Beds were super comfortable too. Bathrooms are to a very high standard, and the showers are super powerful! Found it hard to get out of them. Ideal location in Hathersage, with the town centre within easy walk. Pub is only a very small stroll away. Very friendly neighbours too. Parking is ok, takes a little to get used to which way to get in, but we didn't have any problems, and we have a Nissan Qashqai. Richard, the neighbour gave us some tips. We loved it so much we booked again for next year when we got home. Thank you.

• "The property was immaculate."

  Very high standard. Kitchen had everything we needed. The garden was beautiful. We sat on the mid section and had a glass of wine looking at the cows and hills beyond. Very pretty location. The neighbors were all really friendly, made us feel welcome. Tv had Netflix so we were all really happy. It’s difficult to please a 15 year old boy and 8 year old girl! The car port had 2 spaces. The lane is narrow leading up to property but and a few moves later and we got in! We have a Tiguan which is not small and it was ok. We especially loved the Prosecco, bread, milk, teas and coffee!! So grateful for these extra touches it gave us a real feeling of being looked after on our holiday. The area is perfect lovely little village with good selection of pubs Scotsman pack was a favourite. Bank house brilliant for outdoor evening drinks and Sangams the curry house. Loved these. It really was excellent for Stannage edge walk straight out of the door and close to Edale and Castleton. Both 20 minutes in the car. Absolutely love the peaks we will return.

• "Our stay was lovely, the house was lovely."

  However, we were very dissapointed that there was no information provided indicating the shared access between the property and the neighbouring property. The neighbours were lovely, but it was a far from private rental. They passed by the kitchen window most times we were in there, and their washing was hung up on the approach to the house. There was only a mention of it being a semi detached property but nothing relating to the closeness of the access/living. I don't think we would have booked the cottage of we had known this at the time, although generally I'm glad we went.

  Good facilities throughout, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms. Interesting and imaginative use of the sloping garden.

• "Lovely to be in such a pristine, newly refurbished cottage."

  It is well-stocked and enjoys a high level of comfort. We appreciated the tiered garden and BBQ facilities. The road access is a bit challenging but allows us to refine our driving skills! One minor suggestion might be to provide a washing-up basin for the kitchen sink, a small jug, and also a couple of trays? The very early departure time allows us to be up and away nice and early, but does put a minor shadow on the previous evening because of the awareness of the need to be packed and ready. I wonder if this is a covid-related arrangement which might be eased in due course?

  Well done on this. A couple of minor points. The vehicluar acces to the property is really tight, in the instructions it did say small cars but needs to be emphasised more. The ensuite bathroom sink and mirror combination is far too small, the sink is so narrow the water splashes all over the floor when using. These are minor points but may be worth pointing out to future guests.

  Cottage was immaculate, tastefully decorated and the welcome goods + prosecco were very considerate. It was very comfortable, all slept well+ we spent lots of time enjoying the view from the terraced garden and sitting on the sunny bench at the front. Great water pressure from showers + the bath was a bonus. Having the en-suite + family bathroom was perfect for the 5 of us. We would highly recommend this property. We enjoyed walking straight from the house to the stunning Stanage Edge, hired bikes to do the Monsal trail (Hassop Station does excellent food + traybakes) + visited quaint Bakewell. Recommend sitting outside having coffee at Coleman's Deli, excellent meal + service at Bank House, drinks at the Scotsman's pack by the river + if you can, book a swim at the outdoor heated pool. (Booking opens 7am on Fri for the week ahead) Another highlight was rescuing 2 ducklings with a neighbour as they had lost mum+ waddled up to the garden, but were happily reunited! (Re parking, we found it easy enough to park on the main road which is just a minute or two's walk away as it was tight to get in + out in our estate car.) We will definitely return as left with more we wanted to do! Thanks again.

  Could not fault the house at all, lovely decor and everything catered for. However the only fly in the ointment was the parking arrangements, the website was updated with 'only suitable for small cars' after I had booked the property, which was for my family of 4 and two eldery parents. Luckily we managed to squeeze our car (not that small) into one of the parking spaces but my parents did not even attempt as their car was longer than ours. The website says plenty of parking 100 yards away, this is not the case - my parents had to park on the road, but quite a walk away from the house as the road outside was always at full capacity. I would suggest, 'parking on road on first come first served basis' would be more accurate. Having said that I would recommend the property as it's so lovely - but parking can be an issue. Very much appreciated the welcome basket which was a lovely touch.

  The en suite is too small, the hand sink basin is far too small to wash in, even just clean teeth. Positives: Great location, decorated to high spec, kitchen well supplied with all needed, extremely clean, comfortable, log burner so cosy and great there is no expectation that we had to clean it. Garden is so well thought out and looks stunning. Great views from there. Perfect, would recommend and stay again. Parking we got over, dropped out bags at the top of the lane, whilst other parked. Parked on the road outside. En suite, umm not so great as so difficult to use the hand basin to clean teeth. Needed to mop up water every time used. Check out longevity of water damage here.

  It would have been perfect, however please walk up the lane first. The combination of a very narrow lane, difficult angles and tight parking isn't really practical. It was quite a feat to get out and ended up knocking and braking my electric wingmirror. I'd advise not to take more than one car up and only a very small car at that. Parking on road was also full so I'm not sure where we would have parked.

  Very comfortable, clean and well looked after. The only 'but' is in relation to the parking space which is more than a tight turn to get into; it's also very narrow. Check access before you drive in - getting out was no easier & we managed a nice long scrape all down one side. I'd strongly advise parking on the road - unless you've got a small and high off the ground, vehicle.
