Guests say
Beech Cottage in Belper is consistently praised for its stylish blend of old and modern features, cleanliness, and warm atmosphere. Guests appreciate the quiet surroundings, beautiful views, and proximity to local attractions. The thoughtful touches, such as a welcome basket and fresh flowers, contribute to the cottage's charm, making it a highly recommended stay in the Peak District.
Reviewers unanimously mention the spotless condition of Beech Cottage upon arrival, indicating top marks for cleanliness.
The cottage's location is frequently commended for its quietness, beautiful views, and accessibility to local sights, warranting a high score. However, as not all reviews explicitly mention location, a perfect score cannot be given.
Guests describe their stay as warm, comfortable, and relaxing, with no negative comments on comfort, justifying a perfect score.
Facilities are well-received, with mentions of modern furnishings and underfloor heating. The 'Jack and Jill' bathroom is noted, and the maintenance appears excellent. A slightly less than perfect score is given as not all reviews detail the facilities.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident through welcome gestures like a basket of tea, coffee, biscuits, and milk. Fresh flowers for an anniversary are a special mention. While these gifts are greatly appreciated, they are not guaranteed for every stay.

I was visiting the Peak District for a solo hiking trip and this place was cherry on top, so warm and cosy and had all the amenities available. David and Sally were amazing, welcoming and very informative. The cottage itself is spectacular, I wish I could live there permanently, the character, the original features, the modernisation is beautiful, I couldn't compliment this place enough. Thank you so much for having me and I have already recommended to friends and family who are very keen to visit, I know I will be booking again.

It had everything we needed and was warm and comfortable. We also was made welcome with a basket of tea coffee and biscuits we really enjoyed and milk in the fridge. Thank you for the use of your cottage.
