Overlea Cottage Reviews

Fabulous stay at Overlea Cottage. The facilities are 10 out of 10. A wonderful welcome with relaxing music playing, hot tub ready to use. Would highly recommend this property in a peaceful location for some much needed rest and relaxation.
Hannah
We enjoyed a long weekend stay at Overlea Cottage and would defintiely recommend it to everybody we know! The property is exactly as imagined picture perfect cottage situated in farmland housing sheep in one field and cows in another. The accommodation is warm and cosy and sympathetically decorated throughout keeping lots of original features. We made full use of the hot tub and log fire both evening's which were well maintained. During our stay we made use of the many nearby footpaths and rambled through the Derbyshire hills stumbling across a Michelin guide pub in Hayfield on our way. We loved our stay and would definitely like to return at some point in the future. Our only recommendation is that it would be nice if the vendors could provide more essentials such as food condiments ketchup, brown sauce, mayonnaise, jams, butter etc we were provided hotel size packet butter which wasn't the best! We completely understand the cottage is self catering however it's little things like this that sometimes gets forgotten about. Also the bathtub was beautiful and yet no bath soap to go with it! It's the little extras that go a long way.
Both property and owners are faultless. The cottage is in a fantastic condition with personal touches including a welcome pack and relaxing music been played in the cottage on arrival. A fantastic place for a fantastic relaxing stay. Would 100 recommend. And we will definitely be returning.
Stewart
Had a great holiday in overlea cottage wonderful peaceful location with great walks from the door. Even when we had a small problem with the hot tub it was quickly resolved.the cottage is 5 star we will definitely come again Stewart and Wendy sleightholme
Lovely comfy cottage. Owner very helpful when needed. Good area for getting. Good week despite the great British weather!
Joshua
Absolutely wonderful place to stay, my partner and I really felt as if we were home. My only qualm is the placement of the smoke detector which went off at deafening levels every time the oven door opened this made cooking a very anxietyinducing process. Couldn't fault anything else though, we've had an amazing time here!
Christopher
The property was top notch for a cottage of this type. Couldnt fault the facilities and the jacuzzi was excellent. Nice welcome pack to boot!
We had a fabulous stay at Overlea Cottage, every little detail was thought of, the welcome hamper was a lovely touch, the cottage was immaculate and the hot tub was amazing. Will definitely recommend an hopefully re visit.
Richard
Incredible wouldve loved to have stayed longer! From arrival to relaxing music and a highly appreciated welcome basket of fresh milk, eggs, bread, butter, and biscuits, to departure, everything was perfect. The property was excellent, the welcome pack really helpful, and the facilities outstanding. Beautifully decorated throughout with everything youd need. Visited Ladybower reservoir, Derwent Dam, Castleton, Winnats Pass, Padley Gorge, Chee Dale Stepping Stones and the Monsal trail. Lots of nice places to eat within 515 mins drive. Tried The Hare and Hounds at Mill Brow, The Pack Horse in Hayfield, and Casa di Pizza in Whaley Bridge. After a day out exploring, to return to the hot tub, under floor heating, and free standing bath was just what was needed! Would highly recommend.
Graham
This was the best cottage that we have ever stayed in. It was so clean and extremally well decorated. The hot tub was very clean and very well maintained. I would like to thank Allen and Holly also for the welcome pack that was so thoughtful. It has been said so many times before but we will be going back. Thankyou again Allen & Holly.
Tracey
Attention to detail is amazing, everything you need, location wonderful, attentive owner in house next door but not intrusive. Thoroughly recommend.
A beautiful hidden gem. So peaceful and quiet. Well managed and maintained the owners were courteous and friendly. The hot tub was wonderful. A perfect place to go and relax and escape the chaos of our busy lives.
Wonderful Week away, this is our 3rd visit and have stayed in a different cottage each time. All charming, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Of course the Hot Tub is an absolute bonus on top, incredible views and complete peace and quiet. Host on hand when required but not intrusive at all! Cannot recommend the Over Lea Properties enough!!!
The property was amazing! The cottage was cozy, comfortable, nicely decorated, and was perfect down to the small details. When we walked in there was music playing, it smelt amazing, and the log burner had wood in it ready for use. All of the appliances were in perfect condition, there was a music system throughout the bottom level of the property, and the master bathroom was incredible. Zero complaints except for we wish we had booked another day. We will be back for a relaxing retreat at Overlea!
Catherine
The cottage was lovely. The Christmas tree was waiting for us when we arrived along with relaxing music. The decor and atmosphere of the cottage was top notch. It gave us everything we expected and more. The location was excellent, footpath in front of the cottage which nobody seemed to use! Absolutely loved our stay and would recommend this place to anyone.
Absolutely loved the cottage with its log burner, jacuzzi, underfloor heating and Sonos sound system. We had a brilliant Christmas and did some lovely walks all around the area. The decorated Christmas tree and Prosecco in fridge were delightful touches, on top of the fresh bread, eggs and biscuits. The owners were very friendly and could not have been more helpful. Brilliant! We will be back.
We stayed over at over Lea cottage and what an experience, we could not fault it absolutely perfect in every way. Already recommended it to family members. We will definitely be coming back!
Rachel
Lovely cottage in peaceful location. Warm, comfortable and really relaxing. A perfect place for a rest. Thank you so much. We are planning the next dates to return.
Really well fitted, warm and comfortable cottage with a very private small garden and hot tub area. Lovely welcome pack of essentials including milk, bread, teacoffee, eggs and butter and other essentials provided. Comfortable bed, plenty of towels, bath robes everything we needed! Recommended would return
Steven
The pictures of Overlea really don't do it justice, it's heavenly! We arrived to cosy, snug lighting, soft music playing, a welcome pack and the hum of a warm bubbling hot tub. Attention to detail is second to none!
We had a brilliant stay at Overlea Cottage. The facilities were so luxurious, every little thing had been extremely well thought out. We wanted a relaxing break and it delivered! There is a bridleway running just outside the gate which leads to various footpaths. You can easily walk into Hayfield and New Mills along the Sett Valley Trail. For those that don't want to walk there is also a bus service not far from the cottage. Overall an amazing place to stay for those that want to relax.
Steven
Great stay. Very comfortable. Loved it.
We had a lovely relaxing stay at the cottage and it had everything we needed. Do be aware that the building work being done was quite close to the cottage, it wasn't noisy but didn't feel as private as we would have liked.
Joshua
We had a great stay at Overlea cottage. It has everything you need and is beautifully decorated. The hot tub and views were perfect and we would highly recommend staying there.

Emilia
We loved our stay at the cottage. It was a clean and well kept place and we received a welcome basket on arrival. The hot tub was a lovely addition which we utilised almost every night. It was a beautiful location with the fields in front. Only thing we didn't anticipate was the building works right outside the house but these were fairly quiet so it wasn't a disturbance. All the appliances were easy to use and we had a good range of apps on the TV. It was also nicely decorated. We loved our stay here and hope to return. Alan was also a great host when we saw him and was very welcoming.
Wonderful luxury cottage in a great location. lots of welcoming extras very appreciated. We would recommend this fantastic property to all our friends and family . Would love to return in the future. Thank you for having us.
The cottage is beautiful! We had such a relaxing break and staying here was such a treat. Lots to explore locally and further afield.
Denise
My daughter booked this 2 years ago, and we have had to rearrange it several times. At the time it was for my husbands 70th birthday he will be 72 next week. We had the most fabulous weather the whole time. The scenery is stunning and we felt that we had been away for ages. We will definitely return
Alison
The property was so beautiful and clean when we arrived. The cottage had everything we needed. We loved the hot tub, the Sonos music system and the comfy bed. We hope to be back again soon and would recommend to all.
Lyndsay
Loved our stay beautiful place would return
Claire
Perfect cottage for a relaxing week! A real home from home with everything you need and more with lots of lovely small touches. Kitchen is great to cook in and the sonos is brilliant. We had the best week full of stunning hikes, fizz in the hot tub and relaxing with the log burner on. Thank you!
Rachel
Absolutely amazing stay, couldn't fault it! Particularly loved the little additions like the basket with fresh eggs and bread, and all the crockery and utensils you could need. The under floor heating was an amazing luxury and we loved the log burner. The big bath was so relaxing and the hot tub was great after a long day walking. We'd love to return!
Sharon
Absolutely amazing cottage where we were able to truly unwind and recharge. The accommodation was superb with every last detail thought of. The hot tub was a bonus to completely relax after a day walking or just chilling. We will definitely be returning and hopefully hiring all of the cottages for the whole family.
This cottage was nothing short of perfect for a couple needing a break. You really couldn't ask any more of the cottage, it's cleanliness, the facilities, the location, the owners and the communication. The welcome that we received really made this special. We didn't want to leave and would love to return.
Thank you to Alan & Holly you made our stay really special. Loved the decor and how cosy the cottage was. Appreciate that you were so accommodating as well. We've already recommended Overlea Cottage to friends
This was a perfect Christmas cottage break. Spotlessly clean, great facilities for me to cook Christmas lunch! Fab views, great walking regardless of the weather, jacuzzi and the real Christmas tree made everything so festive! All the attention to detail in this cottage and quality furnishings did not go unnoticed! Hosts very friendly and helpful! Thank you for the prefect Christmas breakaway!
The cottage was exceptionally clean and well presented. The facilities were excellent and the owners were friendly and helpful. We had a lovely week away.
