Elderbank, Bradwell

We arrived at Elderbank cottage on the 23rd December it being the 1st time we had celebrated away from home. We arrived to Christmas decos all alight which was so welcoming. It was so warm and cosy. There were loads of complementary drink and goodies. The owner kept in touch to make sure everything was good and we were happy which we thought was very nice to have the personal touch. We fell in love with the cottage and village which is ideal if you like walking, you also have a car parking space which is a bonus in Bradwell. We will definitely book again. Other reviews said about the kitchen being small but there is plenty of worktop space so it wasn't a problem

We stayed here the first week that restrictions were lifted and had a much needed holiday. The owner contacted us before hand to go over what we needed to know and answer any questions which was very reassuring. The cottage itself was perfect:. Just right for two people with everything you could want in there. We were left a bottle of prosecco, some yummy biscuits, chocolates in the bedroom and even pocket packs of tissues and hand sanitiser wipes. Everything was spotlessly clean and of super quality. The village itself was very nice with four local pubs including the White Hart just a couple of minutes from the cottage and The Bowling Green Inn about 5 minutes away. Both were very friendly and welcoming with clear anti-virus measures in place. We ate from both the village chip shop and the curry house in Hope, both were nice. We also had a lunch at The Castle in Castleton, again, excellent food and service. I thoroughly recommend staying at Elderbank, the owners have clearly gone to a lot of trouble to make your stay a relaxing and enjoyable experience.

Delightful cottage in a picturesque village with ready access to interesting countryside and places of interest in the Peak District.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at this cottage. Well equipped and situated in a lovely part of the country. Looking forward to booking again.

Elder Bank is a lovely little cottage, we really enjoyed our stay there and plan to come back later this year for a longer stay. I would highly recommend this cottage not only because of it's fantastic condition and décor inside, but it's great location with everything you need near by. All in all a great base for exploring The Peak District.

The cottage was perfect for 2 - warm cosy and stylish, but also very well equipped and quiet. The location was good too - both within the village with local shop, and more widely with wonderful countryside and walks on the doorstep.

Loved the cottage. Very well equipped, clean and nicely decorated. Thank the owners very much. We thoroughly enjoyed it there and hope to return to do more walking.

We had a wonderful warm welcome to a spotlessly clean cottage. It was very well equipped and comfortable with everything we could need. The cottage is situated in an ideal location for walking and exploring. We had a very relaxing time, thank you to the owner!

An excellent comfortable cottage, lovely area and friendly people. The cottage was very well and thoughtfully equipped.

The cottage was excellent. Just what we wanted. In a wonderful location. Good food at the Bowling Green restaurant.

Elder Bank was lovely and exceeded expectations. As we went in October, we appreciated the warmth, especially the coal fire, it was very cosy in the evenings. Ideally situated in Bradwell for walking and exploring the Peak District. The surrounding area was beautiful, ideal for walking and exploring. Pretty villages and plenty of pubs and tea shops.

A lovely cosy comfortable cottage in an excellent location for walking.

Elder Bank was located in a beautiful part of the high Peak District. Lovely friendly village. Fantastic fish and chip shop best in area. Lovely pubs and plenty of them. Good base for our exploration of the Pennine Way so we could have long walking days and plenty of luxury in the evenings. Friendly owner - on hand and helpful. Great to have an open fire for chillier evenings. Altogether very relaxing and restoring.

Cottage was lovely very clean and comfortable.Good base for visiting the Peak District. Have recommended to friends.

Lovely very clean, comfortable, well equipt cottage, in a very friendly village. Not really suitable for anyone a bit unsteady on their legs as steps to cottage are a bit steep, as are the stairs inside.

A great location for touring all over the Peak District. Very well equipped with lots of extra touches such as a bottle of wine on arrival.

The cottage was great. Set in a lovely friendly village, it was in a great location with plenty to do and in easy reach of attractions and walks. Can really recommend it.

The cottage is well situated for Peak District tourist attractions and wonderful walks. The décor is a lovely mix of modern and traditional and it is extremely well equipped and very cosy. It was spotlessly clean and there were some nice goodies waiting for us.

Situated in an interesting village.

We enjoyed our week at Elder Bank, the cottage was spotlessly clean, and the owners had thought of everything. Would recommend the cottage and area, our first time in the Peak District.

This was the most perfect property we could have selected. We were looking for a romantic hideaway for a few days of home-away from home comfort, surrounded by beautiful countryside and we couldn't have chosen a better place. From the welcoming bottle of wine and glasses awaiting our arrival to ample fire fuel, and a very clean comfortable and cosy property overall, we were very happy with our stay. I would wholly recommend this property to any couple who seek a few days of pure relaxation.

Elder Bank cottage was ideally located for our walking holiday in the Hope Valley and surrounding area, so many walks close by. The cottage was wonderfully equipped, and furnished and very comfortable. The allocated parking space was a great feature of the cottage. Bradwell has 3 pubs that serve good food, all within a couple of minutes walk from the cottage, although The Samuel Fox is more of a restaurant than a pub, serving excellent food, the best in the village, in my opinion.

The cottage was very central, we wanted a walking holiday without having to keep going out in the car, and this cottage was ideal. The scenery was wonderful, and the local people so friendly. Perfect, 5 star accommodation.

Elder Bank may be small, but it is so cosy and has everything in it that you could want for a week away. The bed was really comfortable, and everything was spotless. Highly recommended.

Elder Bank cottage is one of the very best we have stayed in. We particularly enjoyed the restful atmosphere, and the fact that it is so conveniently located for shops, pubs etc, whilst still being very quiet and peaceful. The location is excellent for walking and for visiting local beauty spots and places of interest. The owner was welcoming and friendly. We would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a quiet rural holiday.

We loved the property and the high standard of fixtures and fittings. The location was also ideal for the walking and cycling we wanted to do.

A very relaxing, quiet place to stay with good local pubs. It was easy to visit places from Bradwell .

An excellent, cosy cottage in a lovely, friendly village with easy access to walks and cycling.

The location of the cottage was perfect. Bradwell has all the necessary amenities and was very close to some excellent walking. We loved it and will be going back.

A great location - near to all amenities but away from any noise. Great walks from the door and a beautiful cottage to return to at the end of the day. Overall a fabulous holiday!

The village of Bradwell wasn't too touristy but was beautiful with some good places to eat. Great walking country. Cottage was idyllic for romantic holiday. Could not fault it.

The location of Bradwell the Elder Bank cottage and the variety of walking and cycling routes.

Cottage was brilliant, everything you need is supplied. Great area for walkers, plenty of places to visit. Great holiday, hope to return next year.

This was a delightful cottage well decorated and comfortable. It was well situated for the Peaks.

The open fire made the evenings so cosy after a day exploring the wonderful surroundings.

The standard of cleanliness, decoration and furnishings in Elder Bank was first class. The bed and sofa were both very comfortable. We left our walking sticks behind and the owner very kindly posted them on to us.

We enjoyed being in the village which was very friendly and had good amenities.

Lovely cottage, compact, delightful, every single thing we wanted was there. Excellent public transport links. This cottage was brilliant, I would recommend anyone to book with confidence.

Spent a short break in February. The cottage was warm , cozy and lived up to expectations. Nice Welcome Pack on arrival and thoughtful touches to make our stay that little extra bit special. Good location for walking and exploring the area. may not suit elderly visitors due to steep stairs.

The cottage was in a very friendly and welcoming village and was very close to outdoor pursuits. The little homely extras made a lot of difference and the treats were were very much appreciated.

The cottage was perfectly formed - ideal for two people. It was a perfect location to explore the Peak District and at the end of a hard days hiking we had a lovely cottage to return to. The attention to detail in the cottage to ensure your stay was comfortable could not be faulted. Would definitely return!

Excellent accommodation in a quiet location. Ideally situated to explore the area with lots to do. Lots of thoughtful extra touches in the cottage which added to the overall experience.

Elder Bank turned out to be everything as stated in the brochure and more. The accomodation and location were superb. The package of "essential" groceries was very welcoming on arrival, as was the brilliant amount of local information. We throughly enjoyed the may walks and superb scenery we experienced. Everything about this holiday was excellent.

Friendly owner who gave very good directions, was great to have a private car parking space. Very comfortable house with a lovely fire to sit in front of. Beautifully presented modern cottage with all amenities. Thank you for such a lovely stay.

My husband & I really enjoyed our stay in this 1 bed cottage in Bradwell. It was lovely to have milk,tea & coffee on arrival, with a bottle of wine for later! Ideally situated in the Peak District quiet & within reach of local pubs & shops. Bradwell Icecream is something not to be missed!! We hope to return in the future :-)

A beautiful cottage situated in a great part of the Peak District, which formed a good base for our walking holiday.

This is the third time we have stayed at Elder Bank. We love its situation and the cottage. The owners are great.

My husband and I have been to Elder Bank before. The owners are lovely hosts and always leave a welcome tray. We love the fact that we can walk out from the cottage without having to use the car. We also find the people of Bradwell friendly and helpful. Plenty of places to visit close by if you are not walkers. The opening of the railway tunnels has made the area around Monsal Dale and the surrounding areas very popular.

The property is comfortable, individual, well-equipped and idyllically set, and - even at a non-rock-bottom rental - there is a real feeling about it of 'value for money'. The owners show a genuine sensitivity and intelligence in the way they present and prepare the property. Excellent in every way.

It was in an ideal location and the cottage was a 'home from home'. The welcome gifts were a nice addition to the stay.

Location, access to several villages, walking and local pubs!

The comfort, cosiness and peacefulness of the property. Also the little extras to make us feel welcome like milk, biscuits and coal provided on arrival.

We were delighted with the quality of this lovely little cottage. The open fire was a real bonus and it seemed that everything had been thought of to make our stay comfortable. The owners were friendly and helpful but unobtrusive and we had a great time in the local pub where there was a quiz night, a band and a great welcoming atmosphere! We thoroughly enjoyed our romantic Christmas break and would definitely like to return.

The location was excellent, within easy access of walks and amenities. The cottage itself was idyllic, homely, clean and of a very high standard. We particularly enjoyed the open fire, very welcoming on a cold winter night. We would stay there again without hesitation and hope to do so again in the very near future. It was all we had hoped it would be and more.

My husband and I have just come back from a three night stay at Elder Bank Cottage in Derbyshire and all I can say is "wow!" As it was our first wedding anniversary, and we live in London, we wanted to go somewhere that had beautiful surroundings and a real cottage feel. And it was just that. The cottage is small but beautifully decorated. Everything was clean (exactly how it looks in the pictures!) and it has an open fire. We couldn't recommend this place highly enough. It is total value for money and very much worth a visit.

Lovely cottage, nice location near pub and shop, other villages close by. Good centre for many activities.

We particularly liked the cottage and the location. The cottage was so quaint but with a lovely modern finish. We had a fabulous open fire and a place to put our wet and muddy clothes. The village is very friendly and ideally located for exploring the surrounding area.

Very well equipped cottage. All our needs were exceptionally well catered for. We would highly recommend it.

The cottage was beautifully decorated and cosy, set in a quiet little town with outstanding scenery, exactly what we needed to forget the city for a week.

Cottage small and was very cosy, well furnished and equipped, clean and well located for all attractions. Barn excellent for bike storage.

This was our second visit to this cottage. We like the quiet location and the cottage is just right for two. Elder Bank is in a great location for getting out and about but is nice and peaceful to come back to at the end of a long day.

This is a lovely little cottage in a quite, unspoit village in the heart of Derbyshire. Although quite small, the house has been beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. It was warm and very comfortable and the additional small Christmas 'welcome' items was a lovely touch. We really enjoyed our stay there over Christmas. thankyou.

A small but comfortable cottage ,good sleeping arrangements,bathroom fine,but a much better tv required for those long dark evenings! we would visit again.

The booking service received from Sykes Cottages was excellant and the cottage was well prepared and serviced by the owner. The cottage had all the amenities we could have asked for. Bradwell as a location is ideal to explore this lovely part of the country but also close enough to Sheffield for a visit if so desired. Bradwell is also well served with bakery, post office/newsagent, supermarket, pub/restaurants and of course the Bradwell ice cream shop!

Very clean and well furnished cottage in the heart of the Peak District. Friendly area with good amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The cottage was ideal for what we needed, in an excellent location. It was very clean, well equipped, warm and comfortable, and although small, had everything we needed. The village was very centrally placed for all the fantastic Peaks walking without much driving.

Plenty to see and do and the weather was very good.

A lovely cosy cottage and the welcome "goodies" namely, a bottle of wine, a pint of milk and some biscuits made us feel very welcome.

Great base for walking, great pubs and friendly people!

Lovely cottage – the owners have thought of everything! Elder Bank is in a really convenient location for getting out and about, but lovely and peaceful to come back to in the evening. We particularly enjoyed having the open fire too.

Extremely satisfied with all aspects. Very pleased with the thoughtful touches of milk, biscuits and 2 bottles of wine. Will definitely be using the property again.

Some very thoughtful extras and good attention to detail.

Excellent cottage. Wonderful holiday in a great location.

Central for walking. Facilities in Bradwell are good. Cottage was very good, comfortable and everything you could need was provided. Certainly one to go back to.

The location was great and the cottage was really nicely decorated which made it feel clean and very homely

Elder Bank Cottage was a lovely, high standard and very cosy cottage. The wanted for nothing. Owner had left a leaflet explaining everything that we needed to know in the village and what days open. Plenty of logs for fire and towels for bathing. Would recommend this cottage to any couple wanting a quiet, romantic weekend or week away.

This is a charming, cosy cottage that we looked forward to returning to everyday. With the weather being cold the open fire was wonderful and we made full use of it. The welcoming bottle of wine and biscuits was a nice touch.

The area was fantastic as we are avid walkers. The cottage was absolutely fantastic, with lots of little personal touches.

A lovely, quiet location. The property was extremely well presented.

Very impressed with the cottage and really enjoyed the holiday. Local supermarket minutes away from cottage. Felt very comfortable and relaxed.

Lovely area, nice and quiet, comfortable cottage...

The weather was brilliant which always helps. Owners were friendly and informative particularly about the Gala week in Bradwell and we enjoyed joining in the festivities.

One of the best holidays we have ever had. I would recommend this cottage to anyone.

The property was to a very high standard.

The whole place was excellent. The garden is small but sufficient to sit out. Definitely just for a couple. But a lovely romantic place with a real fire.

Excellant welcome, comfortable home from home.

The cottage really was excellent -although the owners only lived 100metres away, we never had cause to contact them about anything after the directions and key allocation were sorted on the phone. The only concern now is how any other cottage will compare in the future! We felt the cottage was a home from home, and with the information leaflets left by the owners about local interests, we had a very full week.

This is a lovely cottage - nicely furnished and decorated and much thought and care has gone into it. We were very comfortable and were sorry to leave. We'd certainly like to go back there.

Fantastic cottage and location, would recommend highly! Good beer in White Hart and fantastic food at Bowling Green pub. The welcoming pack was a great touch.

The cottage was fantastic and loved everything about the property and holiday. The welcoming touches were very well received.

Nice touches made us feel welcome i.e wine, CD's and DVD's for evenings.

A lovely property, a great location. Away from but close enough to the tourist bits. Two lovely pubs nearby. Our favourite being the Old Bowling Green.

Perfect little cottage. Cute and comfy.

This is a wonderful cottage. I think it's fair to say that this is the best cottage that I have stayed in. A wonderful, warm, cosy and homely cottage. Good clear directions. The property was immaculately clean and arriving to a pint of milk in the fridge and a ready laid fire was exactly what we needed after a 4 hour drive. I would recommend this cottage without hesitation.

The cottage was immaculately presented and extremely clean. We were very comfortable and felt completely at home.

Cottage was delightful and very tastefully renovated. The location of the cottage was ideal too.

Excellent accommodation, one of the best we have stayed in. Will definitely be booking with Sykes Cottages again. Thank you

Very tasteful furnishings. Nice welcome with flowers, candy and wine. Unlimited supply of fire wood. Very clean. Together with the beautiful surroundings and great weather, a perfect holiday!

Excellent!

Tastefully decorated cottage and very clean and tidy. The welcoming bottle of wine was a very nice touch.

The cottage is finished to a high standard and "reeked" of quality. The owner certainly goes that "extra mile" and incorporates some thoughtful and welcoming touches.

The cottage was superb and the location was excellent - very quiet but in the middle of a village which had plenty of amenities. We wanted for nothing!

The cottage was wonderful and the owner had left wine and flowers for us which was lovely and an unexpected surprise. The cottage was the best equipped we have stayed in.

It is a wonderful little cottage with lovely welcoming bottle of red wine,biscuits and flowers. Plenty of things to do such as walking, cycling etc.

Property ideally situated close to the most interesting parts of the Peak District. As well as the property being of the highest standard, the owners added a number of most thoughtful 'extras', including fresh flowers, a bottle of wine, a bottle of milk and a packet of fancy biscuits! Elder Cottage really felt like a home from home, and we very sorry to have to leave at the end of the week.

Great centre for walking and stately homes.

An excellent property for discovering the area, excellent location with all the facilities in the cottage you need. The little 'extras' provided by the owner were indeed a generous gesture and very welcome.

The cottage was a real home from home. Beautifully decorated and furnished. A lot of care and thought has been made by the owners to make this a very welcoming and relaxing space.

Excellent cottage, superbly equiped with everything we could need. (Including a bottle of wine on our arrival!) A great location to explore the Peak District from.

A very warm welcome. Cottage very well fitted and kitted. Some unexpected but welcomed touches such as a charged torch ready to use, every kitchen implement that could be needed , though stored away in minimalistic manner, thus very tidy appearance. 10/10. Very cosy during snowy weather!

What a fantastic cottage! The whole experience was fantastic, the booking service, greeting and directions excellent and also great value for money. The cottage itself was beautifully decorated with great attention to detail. The owners were lovely and gave us a lovely warm welcome. The location was stunning and we felt very much at home. Would definitely come back.

Great cottage, nice location and plenty of things to do in the area.
