Holly Homestead Reviews

Julie
Comfortable, very clean and charming cottage in a peaceful and perfect location for walks direct from the door.
John
This is a very well equipped character cottage in a quiet peaceful village with great walking from the door, yet only twenty minutes walk from the larger village of Youlgrave with it's three pubs, two shops and cafe.
Neil
Cottage was lovely and cozy with all the modern comforts. Location was great for us in a quiet village away from the main tourist spots - but still handy for most locations in the peak district. Nice walks straight from the front door of the cottage - overall we really enjoyed our stay and would certainly book again.
Alex
We stayed at the cottage for 2 nights and enjoyed it. The area is lovely and has much to offer. The cottage is well equipped and comfortable.
Andrew
A beautiful cottage in a great setting. One of the best properties we have stayed in. Will definitely be back. Property has everything. A real gem.
Mark
This is a beautiful, tastefully modernised yet delightfully quaint cottage in an idyllic location just outside of Youlgrave. All facilities exactly as described and superb in every way. Tricky narrow staircase to first floor bedrooms and bathroom and low doorways for taller guests, but no problem for active mobile people. Would definitely ask to stay again; weâ??ve had a marvellous holiday.
Jenni
Very cosy cottage which suited us perfectly for exploring the Peak District. It was lovely to be able to get out straight on to some beautiful walks.
Rosemary
Delightful cottage, very well equipped and very comfortable. Lots of lovely walks and things to do nearby.
