  Footpath from car park to Flat door dangerous.

  Shock to find the only two Windows in Flat covered in scaffolding making the the flat very dark. We had no prior warning of this. Bathroom very dirty, fan full of airs, shower waste blocked, shower head clogged never been cleaned. Shower screen never been cleaned and mould round the sealant of shower tray. The toilet brush dirty. The two seater sofa and matching arm chair were grubby. The lounge lighting very poor. Kitchen toaster had not been cleaned, baking tray dirty, we had to scrub the drinking mugs. On the corner of the building (outside) next to bedroom window was a motion sensor light. This was clearly faulty as opposed to working, came on for 17 seconds and off for 3 seconds all through the night none stop. The light flashing continually through the night through the gap between ceiling and curtains made it difficult sleeping. The bed in our opinion had seen better days. Given the location of the flat which was very good, we enjoyed Buxton very much but with problems with the flat as described we felt it necessary to vacate the flat after 4 nights instead of the 7 we had paid for. We have taken photographs to backup our critic's.

  Beautiful cottage in lovely surroundings.

  My partner and I had a wonderful three night stay here and would highly recommend it to anybody wanting a relaxing stay in the Peak District. Only a couple of very minor issues. First, the kitchen area has very little available space for food preparation, so if you're thinking of cooking a meal then you may have to get creative. Second, the paving stones outside can become *very* slippery. We stayed during one of these storms which are currently sweeping across the country and there was a lot of rain. In gentler weather I'm sure it's fine. Be careful! But this is tantamount to nit-picking and overall I would rate this is an exceptional property. The bathroom and bedroom are finished to a very high standard, the living room is compact but comfortable, on-site parking, and very friendly hosts.

  Elmwood is a stunning holiday property which sets the bar for others extremely high.

  We relaxed as soon as we set foot inside. All the amenities are of a high standard and nothing has been missed. Walk in shower with lashing of hot water was very welcomed after walks in the surrounding hills as was the king sized bed. Great location for walks from the doorstep and travel to Buxton or Bakewell. The host left us an amazing welcome pack which included bread, milk, wine, small jams, tea, coffee etc and was very much appreciated. They have put their heart and soul into the restoration of the Saw Mill and it is a fascinating building. We wish them all the very best for the future and we will certainly be booking again.

  Fantastic accommodation in a perfect location for exploring the town and nearby attractions.

  Good to have off road parking and easy access to the property. Beautifully furnished and every facility had been provided from a hairdryer to a washing machine. Minor issue with the boiler immediately resolved by the friendly owner. Thank you for the milk and red wine - both got drunk! The bed was extremely comfortable and everything was very clean. The property is on a hill, but Buxton is very hilly and wonderfully picturesque. We needed the short walk back to help burn the calories consumed at the numerous excellent restaurants! Would highly recommend and hopefully we will be back in the future.

  A perfect stay in wonderful accommodation in a beautiful part of the Peak District.

  Lovely countryside walks on the doorstep, including the pretty village of Longnor and the friendly pub which is just a few minutes walk from the property. We did lots of exploring but enjoyed returning to Elmwood for cosy evenings where we had all we could possibly need, including a generous welcome pack which was an added bonus! We are full of admiration for Phillip and Shirley and their loving restoration of The Old Sawmill. We would love to return and would highly recommend this apartment to future guests. Thank you once again - it was a real pleasure to meet you both!
