Oak Farm Reviews

Mr. James
Honestly, the house itself was alright, but the location left a lot to be desired. It's just metres from the A6, which is noisy and busy with fast trucks and traffic. We loved strolling along the Cromford canal, but crossing the road with a toddler and a dog was a nightmare, so we only managed it once. Maybe we should've checked reviews or Google Earth first!
Harriet
Beautifully furnished, perfect for special occasions and gatherings.
Sarah
We really enjoyed our stay at Oak Farm! The rooms were warm and roomy, plus the hot tub and games room were a great touch. The location is perfect for exploring this lovely part of the country. We're already planning to come back!
Emma
We had a lovely stay at this cottage! The rooms are spacious, with plenty of storageand the beds are comfy. The hot tub was perfect after long walksand the outdoor showers are a clever touch. It's very secure for the dogs too, which was a relief. The location is great for walks around Cromford and Matlock along the canal - absolutely beautiful. Only downside is the busy 50MPH road right outside with trucks zooming past, which does spoil the peaceful vibe a bit. Still, we'd come back!
Sophie
The house is ideally located for exploring the nearby areas, plus there's a lovely walk along the canal into Matlock. However, it is quite close to the busy main road, which became a problem for us with our two dogs. It was also noisy first thing in the morning due to the traffic. For some, this might not be a concern, but we felt the house didn't quite meet our needs.
James
We found it clean and well equippedand the location is perfect for exploring the area! The games room and hot tub are a fantastic bonus. Sure, traffic can be a bit noisy, but we were aware of that from other reviewsand it didn't ruin our experience at all. We did have a hiccup with the aga during our stay, which meant no hot water, but we reached out to the owners and they sorted it out the next day. Such a lovely property.
Mark
What a lovely cottage for a weekend getaway with the family! The games room was a hit with everyoneand our granddaughter had a blast with the toys and books provided. We found it really easy to get in touch with the owners and they were super prompt with their replies.
Emily
This was a fantastic cottage for celebrating a birthday and ringing in the new year! There was plenty of space, so the four couples didn't feel cramped at all. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and having the hot tub and games room was brilliant. The main road can be a bit loud, but it didn't bother our group. Plus, we were right next to some lovely walks as well.
Lucy
What a spacious property right in the heart of the Peaks! It's super close to excellent walks and has fabulous views. The house is located on a busy road, which can be a bit noisy when you're trying to relax in the lovely hot tub, but it didn't disturb our sleep at night. The beds were really comfortableand three out of the four bedrooms are really spacious.
