GUEST COMMENTS
THE SWALLOWS
'We've had a wonderful 3 days of walking and peace and quiet, which is exactly what we wanted! This is our 6th visit to the area this year and Cowclose is a good base for exploring. We really appreciate the lovely cottage and respect for privacy which is all too often missing these days. Thank you Barbara for giving us the much appreciated opportunity to have the cottage. Very best wish for 2010.'Sarah and Neil, Leicester, New Year 2010
Thank you for making this a home from home. The cottage is lovely and comfortable, spotlessly clean and very warm. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and especially the friendly hospitality that we encountered. Thank you Barbara and Allan. Helen, Geoff, Sarah and Laura, Whangarei, New Zealand, June 2011
We had a lovely week, cottage and gardens are well presented, location fab. Lots of trips out every day – Crich Tramway Museum, Kedleston Hall, Hardwick Hall and Sudbury Hall. We thoroughly recommend all. Of course the scenery is beautiful, plenty of walks to do. Carol and Tony, Peterborough, September 2011
Excellent experience! Great welcome – warm house, tasty cake, wine. Cottage has everything our family needed – warmth, lovely views and countryside, close to Peak District and other interesting places. We would certainly recommend Cowclose Barn as a great place to stay! Jon and Ann, San Diego, California, USA, November 2011
ROBINS
'Superb cottage, recommended by our daughter and we shall recommend to our friends. A warm welcome with flowers on the table, chocolates and wine - thank you. Snow a surprise but had a great walk around the reservoirs and the snowy scenery was marvellous. Very warm and cosy in The Robins.'Anne and Pete, Cornwall, February 2010
Thank you for a nice holiday in beautiful surroundings. Our children were very happy and relaxed and the cottage is very well maintained, clean and fully equipped. We are very pleased it was beautiful. Robert, Magdalena, Alexandra & Bartosz, Poland, July 2011
We have both enjoyed our stay at The Robins – a beautiful presented country cottage with everything you could wish for and the best of attention from Barbara and Allan. The welcome pack was lovely – especially Barbara’s homemade cake. I must mention the very comfortable bed. Kathy and Bowzer (the dog), Fleet, Hampshire, August 2011.
