Our Reviews

What People are Saying

“Thank you Sarah and Andrew, for a wonderful family holiday that we will never forget!”

We have stayed in many beautiful cottages in stunning locations over the years, but Sarah and Andrew’s attention to detail has ensured that our holiday at Riverside Cottage has simply been the best! The cottage itself is perfect; it had absolutely everything we needed, was super clean, welcoming and cosy. The larder and laundry is fully stocked, which is unusual in our experience and very helpful. The luxurious welcome basket was such a treat. The location is stunning – our granddaughter absolutely loved the ducks and even the weather was on our side.

Our holiday cottage is usually just the base from which we explore the local area, but Riverside Cottage is so much more and had the weather not been as kind, we would have still enjoyed our holiday just as much.

Thank you Sarah and Andrew, for a wonderful family holiday that we will never forget.

“If I could give Duck Cottage more than 5 stars I would!”

“If I could give Duck Cottage more than 5 stars I would. This is the most perfect cottage, beautiful outside and decorated elegantly inside. The location in Milldale, a lovely little hamlet, is just off the River Dove path, so perfect walking is right on the doorstep. Duck Cottage itself had everything we could want and more, with a lovely welcome basket of local treats. It was immaculate both in cleanliness and decor. Andy and Sarah were extremely responsive with suggestions for eating and quick answers to any questions we had. A huge thank you to them for a most enjoyable 5 days in this beautiful setting

“Outstanding in every respect!”

“The reviews on this page say it all. You will not find a better quality and better equipped property to book for your holiday, especially one in such a stunning location as Milldale in the Dove valley. Nor will you find better hosts than Sarah and Andrew whose only concern is to make sure you enjoy your stay. Outstanding in every respect.”

“I cannot stress enough how absolutely delighted we were to have booked such a beautiful cottage!”

“Graham and I have just returned home from the most beautiful few days away – not only was the area and surroundings exceptional, I cannot stress enough how absolutely delighted we were to have booked such a beautiful cottage. It was incredibly clean and tidy and the attention to detail was amazing ensuring our stay in Riverside Cottage couldn’t have been any better. Sarah had thought of everything from the delicious welcome pack for us, to the very thoughtful and unexpected inclusion of dog bowls, bed and blankets for our black Labrador Woody. So much thought and effort had gone into our stay, I cannot thank Sarah enough. It’s an absolute must and I cannot wait to return now knowing it will feel home from home….. thank you so much Sarah x”

Mandy & Graham

A 5 star holiday!

“We absolutely loved our stay at Riverside Cottage. Sarah and Andy have created such a luxurious and cosy environment for their guests and have thought of everything. From the thoughtful welcome basket, to the fantastically equipped kitchen, supremely comfy bed, immaculate bathrooms and beautiful outside spaces, the cottage really is the perfect base for a break in the Peaks. We were so grateful for Sarah’s recommendation of The George at Alstonefield for a meal – a really fantastic lunch from a very talented chef. The location is perfect for exploring the stunning countryside (in particular we loved the circular walk through Beresford Dale and into Alstonefield) and picturesque local villages (Tissington is gorgeous!). A 5 star holiday!”
