1 Primitive Mews Buxton, Derbyshire

All facilities tired.. Carpet threadbare. Sofa uncomfortable. Kitchen still had the same worn marks as two years ago on the worktop. Water seeps from around sink into cupboard below. Dust all over table and legs of table hadn't been touched for weeks. Kitchen crockery still dirty. Had to wash everything before we could use it. Bathroom needs an update, shower awkward to use. Plus side was the field where we could excersise the dog and where the cottage is , is central to all the beautiful places in Derbyshire and the Peak District.

Another excellent venue that fully met your description and our needs

Great location, well stocked cottage

The Paddock was an added bonus for the dog, and it provided a lovely walk in the evening to enjoy the views and sunset..

Enjoyable stay, comfortable cottage that was wonderfully warm! Lovely big bedroom with comfortable bed and very quiet to enable quality sleep. Welcome pack on arrival was very nice and included Valentine chocolates! Parking was great, just outside the back door. Good to have the paddock available to exercise our dog. Fabulous walks from the door, which we loved. Chelmorton is a nice village, well located with a good pub that does very nice meals and is dog friendly. Will definitely stay again thank you.

The cottage was everything that we could have wanted.. The kitchen was bijou but very well set up and spotlessly clean and the welcome pack was most useful. The lounge and bedroom are well furnished with quality fittings and furniture. The cottage is well heated even in January weather. An added bonus is the paddock which our dog loved. We shall definitely be returning. Hilary Price January 2020.

Fantastic cottage in a lovely area.. Really enjoyed our stay and would look at booking cottage again

Lovely cottage, well equipped and well located for exploring the area.. Visited in November and had a mixture of weather over our long weekend (heavy rain, frost, sleet and sunshine!). The owners had provided a welcome pack on arrival which was much appreciated as we arrived late in the evening. Cottage was cosy and a well-thought out conversion with all we needed. Parking very convenient. Great to have use of the fields for walking the dog too. The only negative comment is that the kitchen was very cold in comparison with the rest of the cottage - no radiator in there and a cold stone floor. Overall, a lovely stay and a beautiful part of the world.

Currently on our last night here and we really don’t want to go home. The cottage is well presented and so homely. We booked for a week to bring in the new year and do some amazing walks. Unfortunately with the British weather we didn’t get much walking done but absolutely loved snuggling up in this amazing cottage. The kitchen is a little cold but heating is provided which kept it warm. We bought our dog with us and he had the full run of 2 fields to entertain himself. The cottage has one huge bedroom and a lovely bathroom which is perfect for couples. The living room is small with 2 windows for light during the day and plenty of games and dvds to keep us busy on rainy days. We were welcomed with fresh milk and bread and even a selection of chocolates. The cleanliness of the cottage is second to none and we would definitely recommend anyone looking at this cottage to book. We will definitely be returning very soon

The converted barn from the outside looks fine but it is let down by the rotten doorframe to the entrance of the cottage. It was cold there when we stayed and the wind howled through the lack of door frame where it had rotted beyond redemption. The house was warm enough but the owners electricity bill must be huge as the heat is lost immediately unless the hole is blocked which we had to do as our pet dog had to sleep downstairs. The microwave has seen better days as you cannot see the timer gradients as they have been worn away through usage. Moving upstairs the shower room needs to be looked at as when you put the so called power spray on, it waters the floor as does the ordinary shower as the screen is too short to stop the water from spraying the floor. The shelf to the shower unit is hanging off so that was redundant. The bath is shaped at the toilet end thus it makes it very narrow when going to the loo and somewhat difficult to manoeuvre around. The bedroom is very warm and the bed is comfortable but very low as it is a sleigh bed style making it difficult to get out of it. The upstairs bedroom window has a wooden batten screwed to the window frame which I would consider as a fire hazard as well as the downstairs window!!!!! The sofa downstairs is adequate but small and you cannot stretch out. All in all it was a place to put your head down at night and for £30 a night does one expect more?, yes one does!!!. The rotten door frame did not happen over night and must have been seen by the owners at some time so this lack of attention to detail must be addressed same for the other points raised. The saving grace to our experience of this village is the PUB, the CHURCH INN, very warm with a double sided wood burner ,dog friendly, and good food with good beers and wines. The surrounding area of the village is lovely which gave absolution to the stay here.

We enjoyed the scenery and the the village was very picturesque and very quiet.

Good location to see surrounding towns and villages, excellent local pub the church inn. Furnishings somewhat basic and dated downstairs, after long walks it would have been good to stretch out on a slightly larger sofa but as it says in the title value for the price. useful local guide books in the property.

Very quiet and relaxing. Great local people always felt welcome wherever we went. Cottage was perfect for two people and would definitely stay again in the future.

A well converted old stable, with friendly hosts who took so much trouble to tell us about the cottage and the facilities locally. The cottage was peaceful and quiet and had lovely views all round.

Really nice spacious cottage in a lovely area. Would definitely come back.

Lovely character cottage in stunning part of the country. The non contact arrangements worked well, I wanted to be left alone to get on with it. The essential supplies were a nice touch and appreciated.

No 1 was attractive both inside out and very nicely furnished. The cottage was in a good position for local walks going further afield. Good road connections to other areas of The Peak District. The owners were very welcoming helpful. The cottage did not have a garden as such but had a large area pasture for my dog to safely go in. The car parking was more than ample. Great views from all windows.

So peaceful with walks accessible from the village and others only a short drive away.

The cottage was perfect for a couple's getaway! Comfy furnishings, a big TV to relax at the end of a day exploring and fantastic walking/cycling on the doorstep! Food in the village pub was hearty and well worth a visit! In addition, what set the cottage apart from other stays was the attention to small details taken by the owners. A welcome drink on Friday night to introduce themselves and provide tips on what to do/see, the local OS map which was useful for our day trips, use of their shed to store our bikes and finally as it was Easter, we even received a visit from the Easter bunny! Highly recommended!

I had a lovely birthday weekend here with my husband and dog. The reception from the owners on the Friday evening was really nice. They provided lots of good walks, places to visit etc. Great walks directly from the door so did not need to use the car with the added advantage of an exceptional dog friendly pub 5 mins walk up the hill. This was the smaller of 2 other cottages they have and would definitely recommend the cottages and will hopefully be back.

The parking and garden area was great. The cottage was very pleasant, good sized lounge and bedroom.

Chelmorton is a good location to start from, there is nothing in the village except for a nice pub with good food & friendly proprieters.We were allowed in the cottage early as there was no-one in before us owners were very nice & helpful cottage was comfortable tele was a bit "iffy" but no real problem . Plenty in the area to visit .

We went for peace and quiet and that is what we got. Good meals at local pub, handy for getting about, good parking what else do you need?
