Crich is a pretty Derbyshire village on the edge of the Derbyshire Dales. It is the home of the Crich Tramway Village. Crich was also the setting for the fictional village of Cardale which featured in the popular TV series 'Peak Practice'. The lovely village benefits from its own fish and chip shop, Indian restaurant/takeaway, two local pubs, village shop, post office and a lovely children’s play park just around the corner from the cottage. Many attractions are within easy reach and there are many glorious walks right from the doorstep. There is something for all ages nearby, including Matlock (6 miles) and Matlock Bath (6 miles), Gulliver’s Kingdom (6 miles), and the Heights of Abraham (6 miles) which is a hilltop park reached by cable car, with cavern tours, walking trails, fossil exhibitions, and cafe. Just a little further away is the lovely town of Bakewell (15 miles) and the stunning Chatsworth House and Gardens (15 miles).

Step into the entrance hallway with space to store coats and boots and wander through to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner which offers an electric oven and induction hob, microwave, and large dining table with enough space to seat ten guests. There is a utility area just off the kitchen that offers a fridge/freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer, and dishwasher. Relax in the living room area with a large corner sofa and Smart TV. There is a downstairs bedroom with a single bed and Smart TV for lazy lie-ins, and you will also find a handy downstairs WC. Upstairs is a double bedroom with a handy en-suite shower room and WC. There is also another double bedroom and a twin bedroom, each with matching fabrics and furniture, and a single bedroom with ample furniture to store all of your belongings. The family bathroom offers a shower over bath and WC.

The property is looking a little tired in places, like the dining chairs that are peeling and the peeling paint on the back door. There was shower gel in one of the showers only and not much toilet paper provided. Also, only one dishwasher tablet and no laundry soap, we usually find this is supplied? The mattresses were very soft and uncomfortable.Read more It needs a new front door mat. Very nice location and lovely to have a hot tub. Nice bakery in the village Hide

Overall good location for walking / village. Off road parking available. House snug and warm. Well equipped kitchen. Beds / bedding fine. Garden has 3 steps up (to hot tub) and this was a bit slippy when we went. However, overall impression was needs some tlc - particularly furniture in downstairs space. Not the cleanest house we have hired.

Great location and very clean. Kitchen well equipped, although we were unable to use the oven as it was filthy and couldn't be cleaned during our visit. If you have energetic dogs the garden is quite small and there are 3 steep steps to access it. Beds very uncomfortable, could feel springs. Well stocked local shop, excellent Indian takeaway and fiRead moresh and chip shop. Hide

We had an amazing stay, the accomodation was homely, comfortable, clean and so well equipped. Possibly our favourite holiday house we have rented so far. Had a couple of queries and both times the owner responded quickly and resolved our issues immediately. The village is also beautiful!

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. It is quite small downstairs so if you are a large group then it might be tight but as 5 ladies catching up over a weekend we had a bedroom each and enough space downstairs which was ideal! We couldnt get the hot tub to heat up properly but there is a note that says they change the water on each change over so IRead more am not sure if we were just unlucky as we were only there 2 nights and it was a bit col or if there was an issue.

This is a fantastic location set on a lovely village. Easy walking distance to a pub, butchers, bakery and a shop. Lots of great walks from the doorstep.
