Nuffies Cottage, Winster

We stayed at the cottage for a week, whilst on a training course in nearby Bakewell. The location is stunning and the cottage very well appointed; as three work colleagues, there’s plenty of personal space; the weather was kind and we made good use of the rear garden area. Cannot fault anything about the stay, wonderful warm welcome, comfortable cottage and stunning location; I’ll definitely look to stay here with the family soon

We have just returned from a week at Nuffies Cottage, my wife and I, Son and Daughter in law and our 15 month grand daughter. Just to say from the start, we could not have been happier with our choice of cottage/location/hosts and luckily the weather. You are staying on a working farm, the cottage faces onto a courtyard shared with another holiday let, a cottage occupied by a family member and of course the home of your hosts Gill and Mick. Due to the slope of the land, all downstairs windows face onto the courtyard, upstairs bedrooms have views of the surrounding countryside. It is well sized even for six people with two double bedrooms and a separate bathroom upstairs, kitchen/dining area and lounge area downstairs with a further twin bedroom and en-suite off this main area.. Apart from yourselves and food, just about everything else is provided, in a separate building is a utility room with washing machine and dryer which you are able to use, and various items such as high chairs/ironing board etc. Location is at the top of a hill [hence Hill Top Farm] just over a mile from the A5012 . Aldwark is a very small group of farms, the nearest pub is the Hollybush Inn which is about 1 mile down hill. Consequently any journeys out for a drink or evening meal would need to be by car unless you are quite fit and mobile. This was not a problem for us as we ate in every evening with our young grand daughter and the kitchen is fully equipped with oven/hob/microwave. All in all, if you are looking for a quiet stay in wonderful surroundings you could do a lot worse than stay with Gill and Mick, sadly even they cannot guarantee the weather but we were more than lucky with our weeks worth of bright sunshine.

We stayed here with our 2 children (12 & 10) and my parents, and had a wonderful time. The cottage is very spacious and the kitchen well-equipped. Our girls loved the twin room with their own en-suite, and the 2 upstairs rooms were spacious and comfortable. The owners, Jill & Mick, were very friendly and made us most welcome. A great bonus is the communal washing machine and tumble dryer - there is something rather nice about coming home from holiday with all your clothes freshly washed and dried! The location (a tiny hamlet on a hill!) is perfect for exploring the Peak District. We especially recommend Dovedale, Carsington Water and the Heights of Abraham, which are all less than 30 mins away. We are already talking about returning next year!

A superb cottage on a small working farm. The owners made us instantly welcome. I would highly recommend Nuffies Cottage and we will be visiting again in the future.

Everything was as advertised so there were no surprises. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful.

Wonderful cottage in a peaceful location on the edge of the Peak District. Excellent condition,very comfortable and absolutely spotless. Fabulous views of the surrounding countryside and within easy reach of many places of interest, including Chatsworth, Bakewell, the Heights of Abraham, Haddon Hall etc.

Peaceful, delightful and well equipped cottage with marvellous views. The cottage was absolutely spotless too. It was ideal for our family of 6 plus a one year old. A perfect location to explore the Peak District. Friendly and welcoming owners, where nothing was too much trouble. We all had a wonderful time.

Peaceful location but within easy reach of so many places. The owners were so friendly and helpful.

The children and grandchildren loved the cottage. The owners were lovely and the grandchildren loved playing with the supplied toys. The location suited us well and felt like coming home. We would like to return in the future.

Liked the attentiveness and friendliness of the owners and the space and high comfort standard inside the property. The access from that location to both to countryside and town. It was peaceful and tranquil but also near to the life of an active farm.

Nuffies Cottage was clean, comfortable and in a lovely location. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. We had a fantastic holiday and would recommend to our friends.

Pleased with property, it was well appointed and comfortable. The owners were very friendly and Sykes were very helpful in finding and booking property.

A lovely cottage tucked away in beautiful Derbyshire countryside. The owners are very welcoming and friendly.

Had a great welcome from the owner who made you feel at home - very helpful and kind. Would recommend this cottage. In a beautiful location.

A lovely cottage in a great location. We had a wonderful stay and were very impressed with the accommodation and the welcome we received.

This cottage had everything you could have wanted in a cottage, home from home. warm and cosy if cold and wet, beds were very comfortable, kitchen had all you needed in a kitchen, The owners were on hand if you needed anything and where to find it or to know anything about the area or where to visit. Wifi was an added bonus, so we could use a computer and also keep up with emails and anything else we needed to find out. Also very well maintained. It has an on suite bedroom downstairs for anyone unable to get upstairs, with 3 beds if needed. just one step to go up from parking area outside cottage if going to use the downstairs.. The cottage is a great base to stay, for many activities that in the area, whether it is cycling (cycle higher available near by), walking parts of the Peak district trail and well numbered walks., Go Ape. As well as caves, especially the Blue John caverns, National trust houses, Heights of Abraham, Alton Towers. Plenty to do for young children if it was needed because it was raining. Plenty of places to eat out in Matlock. Pennine way a little further north. lakes to walk round and visit especially lady Bower famous for the filming and practicing of the bouncing bomb. Plus many other things not even mentioned.

Fantastic location and excellent hosts. Thanks for a great stay.

The owners were next door and easy to access, approachable and friendly for any questions or advice. We felt this was an excellent price charged for accommodation. The accommodation was well-equipped and we were given extra towels, toilet paper and soap so no need to shop for extra essential items. The property is in a great base location to explore Buxton/ Matlock area and was very peaceful and close to nature. This was a very different experience for the kids who thoroughly enjoyed seeing the farm animals.

The farm was great and the owner very friendly and helpful. The cottage was also in an excellent location for visiting the area. Well furnished modern accommodation with plenty of heating and hot water. I would definitely recommend it to family and friends.

The cottage was equipped with everything you could want, it was warm and comfortable. There were some lovely touches such as a TV in the bedroom. The owners were friendly and kind, especially to our children. A fantastic cottage!

Lovely property in a good location. Snow at Easter unexpected but owners cleared road so we could get out the next day and the kids loved the sledging and playing in the snow anyway! Owners were very helpful, great to see cows and calves on farm too.

A quiet, comfortable place. Marvellous to be able to get warm with central heating when it was cold and wet. Very friendly owners.

The cottage was perfect. Everything was clean comfortable and with all mod cons of a very high quality. Could not have been better.

Beautiful setting on a working farm with lots of local walks.

We thought cottage was beautiful and of an excellent standard throughout. The owners were very friendly and helpful.

It was a fantastic place to stay. We went with 5 adults, one 3 year old and a baby and it was very comfortable. Stunning rooms and lovely bathrooms made the cottage. Will definitely be going again.

Nuffies Cottage was beautiful.

The cottage was perfect and the owners were so helpful and made us feel really welcome.

The owners were friendly and welcoming, especially of our children. Great location for exploring the surrounding countryside.

Excellent holiday cottage. Owners very welcoming. Good standard throughout and would both return and recommend.

This was undoubtedly the best cottage accommodations of many we have experienced. The setting and the friendliness and hospitality of the owners were first class. An absolutely ideal holiday!

Excellent cottage in a brilliant location - loads to do nearby and on the farm too. The owners were very friendly and helpful, and our little boy had a fantastic time looking at the owner's cows and chickens several times a day! We will definitely be back.

Nuffies Cottage was excellent, it felt like a home not a holiday cottage. The owners were lovely people. We are all missing the farm and cottage already!

Perfect hosts; nothing to much trouble. The accommodation was a real home from home. An ideal base to see lots of beautiful places and plenty to do.

2nd time we have stayed here and another fantastic holiday. Owner made us very welcome once again. As I put before it really is home from home. There is not one bad comment in the cottage guest book which is also full of ideas for places to go and eat. You will not be disappointed.

We had a great time staying on the farm and our 18 month old daughter especially loved visiting the cows and sheep every day. The owners are fantastic hosts - very welcoming and helpful. The cottage is extremely well equipped, one of the best we've stayed in.

The cottage and location was fantastic, if somewhat remote. Our hosts were both friendly and helpful and I would like our thanks passed on to them.

Everything was wonderful. House was spotless, had everything we needed. Beautiful bedrooms, comfortable lounge. It was ideal; homely, quiet with nice views. So much going on on the farm with lambing etc. Dad looking forward to a return visit - thanks to all!

The accommodation and location were perfect for a relaxing holiday. The owners were very welcoming and the children were allowed to look at the cattle and milking. They even found a sledge for them to take over the fields after snow.

Everything about this property was 5 star! Starting right from the directions from the owners! We received a warm welcome, and everything about the cottage was perfect! Very well equipped - even down to picnic equipment, everything you could possibly need. The owners delight in you seeing their farm and watching the milking etc, with the neighbouring farm selling free range eggs, which our children collected themselves! The views from the cottage are amazing and well within travelling distance to loads of the tourist attractions.

As many people this year we decided to "holiday at home" and looked for accommodation for the 6 of us, 2 adults and 4 children. Trying to satisfy all our needs is always a challenge but the Peak District could not have been better. The accommodation was excellent with three very good size double bedrooms 1 with en-suite facilities and the other two sharing a bathroom. Considering we were on a working farm we were not disturbed at all by any early morning milking sessions or general farm activities. In fact this added to the interest, the owners of the farm live in the cottage opposite and were very friendly and welcoming. Two adorable Labradors greeted us every time we ventured outside to head off to one or more of the many attractions the Peak District has to offer. All in all we were not sure what to expect but all of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Nuffies Farm and are very likely to go back again.

Im sure we have already submitted a review but again we found the property had everything we needed for an extended family stay.The standard of accomadation was first class and the owners couldnt have been more helpful.We have paid much more for properties that dont come anywhere near this standard and would certainly stay there again.

We stayed here with our two chidlren and friends with their boy. The accomodation was very comfortable - well above the 5*s given - and the proprietors very friendly - involving the children in seeing the new lambs, calves and milking. we will definitely be back!!!

It was a small but lovely cottage. It was immaculately clean and all the furnishings were to a very high standard. The owners of the farm were very friendly and were happy to show the children the cows being milked - which was lovely!!

Fantastic cottage with a warm friendly welcome from the owner. It was a true home from home and can't wait to go back.

The cottage is in a beautiful setting with very friendly owners and you feel instantly at home. Our son loved being able to visit the animals. The cottage has very good facilities and a fresh, modern feel.

Peaceful setting and warm welcome, accommodation is first class and cottage offers much more than others for the same price. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will return again soon.

A true home from home experience in tranquil surroundings and beautiful countryside, coupled with a true heatwave - perfect!!!

Excellent property, very well equipped and very clean and fresh. The owner was there to greet us, and made us feel very welcome.

This cottage was ideally suited to explore Derbyshire and was well equipped and comfortable. The owners were extremely nice and it was lovely to be on a working farm - great for the children. Will definitely return and recommend to others.

The cottage was great, and a great base and location for good local walks.

The friendliness of the owners was amazing. The children loved the farm and the animals. The cottage is the best we have stayed in, top class! A great location for visiting the Peak District. Definitely one of the best holidays we have had.

Staying on a working farm was absolutely amazing and the warm welcome from the owners way beyond our expectations! They really took time to show us the animals, and providing local insight into the area. The standard of the accommodation itself was superb - highly recommended, we all had a fantastic time and can't wait to visit again!

Helpful and friendly owner. Countryside setting. Peace and quiet. A clean and comfortable property.

Fantastic location. Very helpful owners.

The property far exceeded our expectations; we have stayed in much more expensive properties that have not even come close to this one. The provision of toys, games etc really added to our stay.

Warm, comfortable, well-equipped accommodation. Nothing complicated to work, well designed. Good position - definitely in the country but near towns and attractions. Friendly welcome.

A terrific place for 6 adults to stay, catch up on gossip and explore the Peak District.

The aspect, overlooking the countryside. Warm and cosy cottage.

It was in a beautiful location and decorated to a very high standard.

It was great, beautiful cottage - just wish to say thank you to the owners who were so helpful and welcoming. Such a fab break!

The cottage was lovely and the owners were very friendly. There was plenty to see in the area.

The property was truly delightful. Well appointed, in a lovely farm yard setting, pleasant views across the surrounding countryside. We would definitely go there again.

The cottage was by far the best we have stayed in. Our daughter who is 3 particularly enjoyed visiting the cows and pigs. The cottage was so well equipped that we needed for nothing during our stay. We felt that this property should have been graded higher than it was. We would definitely return and have already recommended it to our friends and family. Thanks for a wonderful holiday.

Great location, very friendly owner, Cottage was very nice with modern applicances and everything that could be needed

Very friendly owners, wonderful cottage in a fantastic location. Very well furnished and equipped, will go back again!

This was a well equipped cottage, a great base to see such beautiful countryside.

Excellent family accommodation

We all loved our holiday at Nuffies Cottage. Our 18mth old God-daughter loved visiting the lambs & cows on the farm. The owners of this property were very friendly & the welcome pack of the essentials is a fabulous idea. It was an ideal place to go for a very relaxing holiday.

Great cottage, easy to access, plenty of parking, not far from good walks, local pub short car ride. Would recommend for families & couples.

The owner made every effort to make us welcome. Nothing was too much trouble. We were able to visit all the animals on the farm at any time. We would highly recommend this cottage.

The cottage was beautifully furnished and on arrival the owner had left the necessary so that we could have a cuppa on arrival. I would thoroughly recommend staying at Nuffies Cottage - just remember to bring your wellies if you want to visit the sheep and cattle.

This is the best place we have ever stayed in and even deserves a higher star rating. We wanted for nothing during the stay and the friendliness of the owner was so welcoming - the location was great for visiting so many different places. We will definitely be coming back here again and will keep an eye on availability for future breaks.
