Clock Cottage Reviews

Really nice cottage, too warm on a night the underfloor heating was loved by all even the kids. To walk out of gates tricky we tried the code on the post which didnt work, Nevermind The owner was very helpful and quick to reply. We would return.
This is a lovely cottage with all mod cons including a hot tub. And they all work. Very clean when we arrived & we appreciated the Prosecco and biscuits. We had a fantastic time.
Lesley
Great wee house. Hot tub was a real bonus after enjoying the many lovely walks in the area.
Great place for a relaxing break. Nice and quiet location. Pressecco and biscuits were a nice welcoming gift from the owner. Very comfy bed. Hot tub was very welcome after a day of walking round Manchester and local reservoirs. We really enjoyed our break at Clock cottage.

Amazing and beautifully situated cottage. The area was lovely and I honestly could not recommend this place enough.
Louise
Sykescottages kept me informed throughout my booking and when I needed to call they were very helpful and friendly, will definitely book through them again. Clock cottage was beautiful, perfect location for a relaxing 40th surprise girlie getaway. We did have a little trouble with the keypad when accessing the property as the arrow key did not seem to work and kept going through to the intercom however this was resolved by the owner. Thank you for a great memorable weekend away
Arrival instructions really clear, the cottage is lovely, nice & clean with a thoughtful welcome gift. Great location, so quiet & peaceful and one of the most comfy beds have stayed in. Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking to return.
Superb holiday loved every minute of it. Great cottage in a superb location.
Alison
Quirky, comfy cottage with good views and a peaceful location. The hot tub is welcome after long days walking. The beds are very comfortable and luxurious as is the deep roll top bath.
Angela
We had a fantastic time in this wonderful cottage . It was clean and tidy with the luxury of a bath in the bedroom. Extremely comfortable beds too. The hot tub was an added bonus which we loved , It was an excellent week with fabulous weather to see the beautiful scenery in the Peak District .
Iestyn
Beautiful property in a perfect location. The balance of having a large city and a national park nearby is amazing for us, we like to stay in tranquil locations and explore the countryside but also like the convenience of being near a large town in this case of course, the massive Manchester so location was perfect for us. The cottage itself also has a perfect balance of cozy and modern, there was nothing we felt we needed but didn't have, hot tub was lovely. Will definitely be coming back!
Superb Cottage with amazing scenery out of every window. Cottage was Immaculate. Hot tub even better. Gated entry gave you extra security. Fantastic place to stay. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely stay in Clock Cottage. Fab location for exploring the Pennines. Slightly disappointed that we couldnt see the Clock from the outside but enjoyed the inside view of it nevertheless. Hot tub is wonderful!
Alison
Lovely clean, cosy, well furnished property. Very comfortable beds & good shower. Welcome gift of Prosecco & biscuits was a lovely gesture. The hot tub was a fab addition too. Lots to do in the area, some lovely walks from the property and nearby. Uppermill & the canal and Dovestone reservoir being especially worth a visit.
Maggie
Absolutely lovely cottage. Very tastefully decorated and comfortable and so warm with the underfloor heating. The bed is amazingly comfortable and the hot tub is wonderful and very private. Wonderful views all around. Lovely and kind touch from the owners with a bottle of prosecco and chocolate biscuits on arrival. Would definitely recommend Clock Cottage.
Great property, very welcoming and clean. The hot tub was a great addition and we used this both nights to relax. The only downside was the electric gates breaking meaning we had to leave the car where it was and climb over the wall however despite only being back from holiday a few hours before, the owner came through that night and sorted this for us for which we were very grateful. We would definitely recommend to friendsfamily and we will definitely be staying again
Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location. The only reason for not giving 5 stars was the lounge area could have had another comfortable chair as there were 4 adults so not able to all completely relax at the same time.
Loraine
Absolutely lovely cottage home from home. Clean and comfortable everything that you would need while you are away. It rained every day but we still used the hot tub and enjoyed every minute of the holiday. If you are looking for peace and quiet this is the place to relax and enjoy. Plenty of places to eat and shopping at nearby villages is great. Also Manchester not far away so the choice is yours. Plenty of beautiful scenery and walks if it's not pouring down. Really enjoyed our stay would go again thank you for a lovely break
Leanne
Fabulous cottage, had everything you could need. I would highly recommend, hot tub was amazing, so was the views .
Stephen
This is a fanatastic little cottage in an amaxing setting, just a stones throw away from the Peak District. It is well presented and well equipped. We went as a family of four and the kids and we all had a brilliant stay. The kids loved the hot tub. The owner is friendly and even put some banners up for me that I sent in advance for my wifes birthday. We will be back!
Tracey
We had a lovely time at Clock Cottage. The weather was not good to us that week but the cottage is so welcoming and homely we still enjoyed our holiday. The double bed is extremely comfortable. Loved having a bath especially in our room. So many places are taking baths out and just having showers. The kitchen is perfectly equipped to cook. We watched plenty of films on Netflix iPlayer and Itvhub. You need your own sign ins. The hot tub is great and secluded from sight. The cottage was decorated lovely and was beautifully clean. We visited Dovestone reservoir which is really great. Climbed to the top of the hills and the views were spectacular.
This cottage is absolutely beautiful, the views are spectacular and the cottage felt like home. The only thing that I would recommend would be for there to be more towels as these are used alot with the fabulous hot tub. We had a great time, thanks, Sara.
