What can I say this is never a 4 star guest house. The bed was terrible the pillows were dirty. The shower didn’t work properly. The room was cold and they were not ready for us when we turned up.

Excellent breakfast. Lots of choice. Comfortable room and bed and modern en-suite. Plenty of tea, coffee and milks with biscuits and chocolate! Stand by chair for coffee mug would have been useful as would bulb for reading by in bedside lamp. Stairs fairly steep. Would recommend and book again if in area.

Great B&B which is conveniently located in Matlock near to numerous shops, cafes and restaurants in the town centre. The owner is very welcoming and helpful to any needs or requests. Parking is available right outside although the spaces are sometimes tight as Cedar House is situated next door to a neighbouring B&B and other private properties. My single room was small but very well equipped with en-suite facilities. Bottled water and tea & coffee was replenished daily with a chocolate bar also left which was a really nice touch. Breakfast was great with a wide range of choice including cereals, cooked options/full English, yoghurts and fruit. If you’re wanting to stay in Derbyshire in close proximity to the Peak District National Park and attractions such as Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and towns such as Bakewell then Cedar House is a great option at an extremely affordable place. Certainly recommended and I’d happily stay here again.

A midweek break with my boyfriend, staying in beautiful, quiet and cosy BnB, owned and run by a hard-working and wise couple. The 'lady of the house' who welcomed us and was the main host, was truly wonderful, lovely and humble. And she loves to feed you! Only one small issue that hopefully will have been fixed by now. Eagerly awaiting and very much looking forward to our next visit! ;)

A lovely, quiet location, just a short walk through a lovely park into the town. An excellent choice for breakfast, well cooked and well presented. An idea location for the wide variety of places to visit in the area, Chatsworth (15 minutes) & Kedleston Hall (35 minutes) to name just two.

Would I stay there again? Yes. The owners went out of their way to accommodate me in that I was given a "take away" breakfast as I needed to be off very early each day. They were both courteous and helpful.
