What People are Saying

“Another wonderful week!”

Just spent another wonderful week at Riverside Cottage. Thank you to Sarah and Andrew for all the care they take in making Riverside Cottage such a fabulous place to stay, it is truly a home from home. We always look forward to our visits. Beautiful surroundings,  well equipped and comfortable Cottage and a fabulous welcome basket full of lovely treats.

The Murphys

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!”

We wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thanks for such a fab stay!”

We have just returned from a wonderful week staying in Riverside cottage, and we are already plotting our return visit.

The cottage was absolutely beautiful with so many lovely thoughtful touches. It was super comfortable, and the decor was tastefully done.

The welcome hamper was the best we have ever received in a holiday home…. We were thoroughly spoilt. The cottage was so comfortable and warm with everything we could have needed for our stay.

The location was just stunning with the river across the road (a quiet lane) and so many walks from the doorstep. Our dog had the best week too and we loved how dog friendly the cottage was. Riley loved lying in front of the aga after a days walking.

Andrew and Sarah are perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble and they gave great recommendations of local things to do and great places for food.

We wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thanks for such a fab stay Andrew & Sarah (and a shout out to your mum for the delicious homemade marmalade).

“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

Thank you for a most fabulous stay!

“We have just returned from a 5 night stay at Riverside cottage and we are keen to return in the near future. The cottage is extremely well equipped, the owners have thought of absolutely everything to ensure a very comfortable stay. We were extremely lucky with the weather and were able to make use of the many seating areas outside. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the far terrace in the mornings watching the birdlife by the river which flows adjacent to the cottage. The local amenities and walks recommended by Sarah and Andrew were spot on.  Thank you for a most fabulous stay!
