EVERYTHING!!! The location was picturesque, and the facilities were impeccable with everything catered for. There was a welcome pack of crisps, chocolate, and milk. The Bell tent had tea, coffee and sugar available with a cool box, cooking facilities in terms of an oven incorporated within the log burner, and a BBQ fire pit outside (with all cooking utensils available at the property). The bed was both comfortable and warm with quality bedding and an electric blanket. The hosts were welcoming and available for any enquiries. I can not praise this place enough.

it was busier than we imagined. we ate in two lovely independent restaurants/cafes, Lamplight & Corner stone. The park was nice to stretch legs in but is not that large...we were only in town a few hours.

Small cute place.
Small cute place. Great genuinely Gluten Free and affordable Thai Restaurant in the center called 'Thai Basement' (01335 300305). Cute cellar based restaurant. Don't let the tiny door leading down to it put you off, it's a gem!

Lovely, charming little town, St.
Lovely, charming little town, St. Oswald's church is amazing to visit. The little Historical Centre is also a must to learn about the Ashbourne Shrovetide Football, and the Memorial Park was lovely too.
Easy access to the Tissington Trail is from the centre of Ashbourne, but sadly a substantial length of it was closed for our visit due to Ash Tree felling. This is due to continue well into December.
Short drive to Dovedale NT Nature reserve, but the river was in quite a full spate due to the recent rain so access to the Stepping Stones were limited. Ilam Park was a good alternative place to visit however.
We had an Anniversary meal at The Lamplight which was exceptionally good, and we had excellent lunches at Jack Rabbit's and Beaumont's.
We also had a couple of beers in the lovely Queen's Vaults which is a very cosy Craft Beer bar, as well as an excellent pint of Draught Bass in the Wheel Inn, where we were welcomed by the very friendly locals.

Lovely village.
Lovely village. Lots of pubs, restaurants, shops and places to walk.
Very friendly people who are happy to stop and chat with you. Excellent location for Alton Towers - 20 minutes away.
Very good bike hire for short or longer rides. Tissington is a safe journey along the Tissington trail.
Have been here three times and still find new things to do.
Easy to find different cultures of food - Chinese, Indian, British, etc..
Looking forward to returning next year.

Nice reasonable places to eat.
Nice reasonable places to eat. Road through is very busy and noisy with constant traffic. mostly lorries, in both directions.
People were very friendly. We were a bit disappointed that so many businesses have closed since our last visit and there are many empty shops/cafe's etc. A sign of the times I expect. I would visit again for an afternoon, but I don't think we would stay overnight again.
The location of the Lilacs was just right to give access to the Peak District and the popular towns in the vicinity.
The room was very pleasant and the bathroom was very roomy.
The breakfasts were excellent and gave you a good start for the day.
Car parking at the Lilacs was good, albeit you had to take care getting out out onto the main road.
Local eateries were so handy you didn't need to go into the nearest town (Ashbourne) to find good food, although there were probably good restaurants/pubs to frequent if you so wish.
Really comfortable room and amazing staff super duper friendly. The breakfast was absolutely amazing!
Hubby had the full English and I had the vegetarian both amazing.
We visit every year for Alton towers scarefest but normally stay at another hotel but they were booked up. You guys came up and did not disappoint would happily stay with you guys again next year. Hubby is still raving about the breakfast (oatcakes in particular we don't have them in our area)
Fantastic location too 👏 well priced considering room size etc.
Well supplied with kitchen equipment, utensils and condiments, nicely decorated and furnished, and a good, central location for visiting Ashbourne (which has some good pubs and restaurants, also a historic church). The lounge/dining/kitchen area was spacious, and the bathroom had a good shower, so our needs were well met. The apartment seemed to be well sound-proofed as we hardly noticed the traffic outside. Although the car park couldn't be accessed directly from Madge House, it was secure and safe.
We had a lovely, relaxing stay. It was so peaceful and although the other two roundhouses were very close by they were secluded from view so you wouldn’t know they were there. The roundhouse was clean and had a lot of little extra touches like blankets for sitting outside on a chilly evening and fresh milk, eggs and sourdough bread left for us to enjoy. There were plenty of tea bags and coffee pods for the whole of our stay too. We walked into Ashbourne for something to eat and it wasn’t far.
We visited this hotel as we were going to Alton towers and it's really close.
I have visited before and absolutely love this hotel.
All the staff are helpful and very polite. During check in I was told we had a free upgrade to the bakeell room and it was absolutely beautiful. The views outside the room were lovely and the room was large and very clean. Can't wait to visit again.
The breakfast was nicely cooked and very tasty. The room was very quiet at night when the traffic had reduced. The proximity to Ashbourne was good thought turning right out of the drive towards Ashbourne could be challenging at peak times. The property has pleasant views to the rear and a pretty garden. The parking space is adequate for two rooms
Wonderfully comfortable in a great location and provided everything we required. Very cozy with a lovely garden area. In a quiet location but central to Ashbourne. Would book again. Best place to park for free is in the Pavilion car park adjacent to the park on Cokayne Avenue about 3 minutes from the house.
The farm is well located just outside of Ashbourne, perfect base for exploring the Peak district. The accommodation itself was absolutely beautiful. All the amenities you could possibly need are on site. Great instructions provided on finding the farm. Check in and check out were a breeze.
We had a fabulous weekend in this lovely house. Very well equipped, spotlessly clean, great location for Ashbourne (easily walkable and supermarket close) and easy to get into the Peak District for great walking in the White Peak particularly. We very much enjoyed out stay thank you
The Cottage was clean and well equipped. It was a reasonable walk from the center of Ashbourne. The neighborhood was quiet and there were nice views from the back of the house. Milk and teabags were left for us which was nice. Also some chocolate in the fridge!
Very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Easy to find, fab location right near lovely Ashbourne town centre and Sainsbury’s just a stones throw away, it wasn’t noisy at all though! Good off road parking. Bed was lovely & comfortable too.
The decor and originality of the tent were very homely and cosy, the surrounding areas were very nice to look at, quiet and peaceful but not too far from local shops and pubs , it’s only a 10-20 minute walk to Ashbourne and the nearest pub
Service from the staff was excellent. It was my wife's birthday and they looked after her very well. The staff were trying really hard to make the hotel a success, the level of professionalism from the chefs was commendable.
Loved the stay. Hosts were very responsive and when we wanted to extend the stay by a day, they gave us a great rate as well. Will surely return to this property whenever I am visiting Peak District.
Birgit was very welcoming and gave us good advice on the surrounding area , places to visit and where to eat.
Excellent position for Pubs and restaurants in Ashbourne.
Off road parking.
Excellent Hotel, beautiful interiors, friendly & helpful staff and amazing food. There is so much to do in the area, from walking & biking on hotel bikes to local art & pottery classes
