Top Carsington Water Hotel Reviews

The Old Lockup

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay. Out the way, very reasonable and the breakfast was great."

Stunning Scandinavian Boutique Cottage Retreat with Rolling Countryside Views

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place, we found it a beautifully equipped cottage for a comfortable stay. Would recommend it highly. Something to note is that the cottage is up a steep lane that you can't park in so it may prove to be difficult if you have mobility issues. Otherwise It's lovely."

2 Bed in Brassington (oc-dcgol)

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely converted barn property in a remote location but conveniently situated for access to a whole host of places. The property was lovely and cosy and very well equipped."

Luxury Cottage, Peak District, Derbyshire, Carsington Lake views, Starlink WiFi

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location near to Carsington Water and plenty of activities nearby. Accomdation very comfortable, spacious and cosy. Easy check in and check out. Wifi good. Super quiet evening, great bed, and beautiful views to wake up to in the morning. Fab!"

Charming cottage in rural village, ideal for Carsington Water and Peak District

8/10 Good

"Property was spotlessly clean and would be very cosy for a winter trip. In the summer with a child not so good. The description is misleading. It mentions a garden and barbecue. The outside space is actually a very small paved are at the front of the property. Despite the photos showing beautiful Derbyshire scenery there are no views from the property. The property is wonderful but not what we were expecting."

2 bedroom accommodation in Wirksworth, near Matlock

10/10 Excellent

"Wow what a place, we stayed here for 3 nights and didn't want to leave, we will definitely be returning! Looks exactly as shown in the photos and more, everything you need for cooking etc with all amenities within walking distance including pubs! Cant wait to go back."

3 bedroom accommodation in Mills Croft, near Hognaston

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely house in a beautiful quiet village, great location for places to visit . Everything you could think of was provided, nice and warm, comfy bed. Struggled with mobile phone reception but was not a big issue. No village shop but the pub was excellent."

1 bedroom accommodation in Atlow, near Carsington

10/10 Excellent

"The house was well equipped and very clean. Lovely surroundings and the owner was very friendly. Great gardens and also dog friendly. Would definitely recommend."

7 bedroom accommodation in Bradbourne, near Ashbourne

10/10 Excellent

"The Water Mill is an amazing location including the actual workings of the original water wheel. It surpassed every expectation that we thought it would be. There was everything that you could possibly need for a cottage holiday, and more besides. Both David and Sophie could not have been more helpful from the moment we booked it, to the day we left. It was just a shame we only had a weekend. Hopefully next time we will be able to have a full week to explore more of the surrounding area."
