we had a wonderful time staying at church farm cottages - we stayed in Pinster Cottage - it has a bathroom (bath and shower) and 2 well furnished bedrooms downstairs - as a couple we only made use of one of these, but expect that the other bed is just as comfy as the one we used. The kitchen/lounge is... More

We were incredibly well looked after after a weekend away with our 17 month old toddler; she had a lovely time watching the animals from the window seat, and - some minor reshuffling of the coffee table later - was safe and happy roaming around the cottage. The cottage is incredibly well equipped - every meal we prepared had exactly... More

Just got back yesterday from a lovely break here with our 17 month old. The family who run the farm couldn't have been more welcoming, showing us round the farm and letting us meet a new born calf who had just been born. The cottages were extremely well equipped and there is loads to see nearby. Our daughter was absolutely... More

Church Farm Holiday Cottages provided us with the perfect base from which to enjoy the beautiful surrounding areas (Dovedale, Matlock, Buxton etc), especially in the snow! We recieved a very warm welcome from Christine, along with a homemade cake. The cottage (Pinster) was clean, spacious and well-equipped with Freesat, board games and a large range of leaflets and walking maps... More

The first visit to Christine's Cottages was about four years ago, we were impressed with everything, loved the situation on the farmyard in a quiet spot and the location right by Dovedale and the Tissington Trail. So in 2011 we returned to stay again in Pinster. The cottage has everything for a comfortable stay and since our first visit now... More

We have just returned from staying in one of the cottages and were very sad to leave. We had a great relaxing family holiday here and will return. I have to say we could not fault it at all. The reasons we enjoyed staying here were the claenliness , the animals being around , Christine and Chris`s hospitality , the... More

Very pleased with the cottage we stayed at here (Pinster, the one on the left). Had a warm welcome from Christine, and her friendly dogs and cats. The homemade Victoria sponge was very nice. Set on a small working farm in a very small village with Gloucester cows and a few pigs, they also sell their beef and eggs. As... More

Thanks Christine and Chris for making our stay special. We enjoyed your warm hospitality and will definitely try to come back. You have a lovely warm cottage, which is excellently set-up with full kitchen and all amenities we needed. Having Freesat HD a bonus we have never come across before! Claire still remembers collecting the eggs and playing on all... More

Alsop is a very central and convenient base for both visits and activities. We cycled the Tissington and Manifold Trails, walked up and down Dovedale and visited Chatsworth, Ilam and Kedleston Halls as well as Ashbourne and Buxton, all within a week. Church Farm itself - the standards and facilities, and the comfort - far exceeded those we have experienced... More
