This is our second visit to The Wee House. Very comfortable little cottage with scenic views and good walks. We love it here so will definitely be returning soon.
Such a gorgeous little, but spacious, cottage. The cottage was immaculate and had everything you would need, so well thought out and the views were to die for. A great location for exploring or just pottering around the cute little town. Great hosts. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
If it's a view to die for that you want, the Wee House is the place. Everything about the house was comfy, cozy, and clean. It truly was absolutely perfect, and we'll be back for sure!
Very comfortable, beautifully decorated, had everything you need. Lovely town, nice pubs and restaurant, all within a short walk of the property. Fantastic views from the property of the rolling hills and in a prime location to visit places like Buxton and Bakewell and plenty of other places and things to do, including walking.The host was fantastic.All in all a wonderful break.
A beautifully furnished, cosy little cottage in a very quiet location. Very comfortable bed and lovely to have a proper bath to relax in after a day's walking. I found it particularly useful to have such a wide range of maps and walking guides provided by the owners. Parking is only available at the bottom of the hill, which wasn't a problem for me but anyone with mobility problems would struggle.
Amazing little cottage. The views were spectacular. Definitely recommend for a getaway in the country. Bed is very comfortable. We loved lighting the fire in the evenings. Kitchen well equipped. Would come back again.
Beautiful old cottage renovated to a very high standard and in immaculate condition. Great attention to detail and comfort.
We loved our stay here, high in this stunning quirky village. So much history here, great eating places and pubs, small independent shops.
Very kind and helpful owners.
Gorgeous 'wee house' in a beautiful, peaceful location. Thank you Sarah & Mal for letting us stay in your extremely clean, well equipped & comfortable house. Also for making us feel so welcome.
The property is very cute, clean, and has amazing views! The owners are super nice cheery people! The view does require quite a hike up a very steep hill. But worth it đ
Great little cottage up on a hill with wonderful views over Wirksworth. Had everything we needed. Plenty of walking without taking the car, owners had thoughtfully left local walking books and leaflets. Quirky local cinema a few mins walk away. Nice restaurants nearby. A great place for our short stay.
Communication with Sarah prior to our stay was excellent and Mal provided a very warm welcome on arrival with lots of local recommendations! The Wee House has beautiful views across the town/hills and the property had everything we needed for our stay. It is also located near many local attractions including the Crich Tramway and Cromford Mills - both well worth a visit. Thank you very much!
We absolutely loved the Wee House. The property was ideal with fabulous views and an extremely comfortable bed! It was well equipped. Parking was a bit more tricky as we had a large vehicle. Lots of local info was provided and we enjoyed several beautiful walks direct from the cottage. The town was charming and we particularly enjoyed dinner at Le Mistral. We certainly hope to make a return visit.
Mal & Sarah's place is a fabulous, well-appointed retreat from the busy-ness of many other towns. Wirksworth itself is really a good example of treading the balance between a working town and the steady march of gentrification. Most places here are run by independent locals; and so it should! Don't change because I'm going to retire here :)
This was a superb little house that has been beautifully restored and furnished to a very high standard. It was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. The owner was lovely and couldn't have been more helpful.
The walk out from the house to the Star Disk was great (particularly at night) and the house is generally in a great area for holidaying. We particularly enjoyed visits to Chatsworth House and walking in Dovedale.
We couldn't fault anything about this house and would recommend it to others.
Small but perfectly formed, the Wee House is the ideal get away. Peaceful, (no passing traffic), amazing views across the valley. Too cold to sit outside but sooo cozy inside with the fire lit. Super comfy bed in a spacious bedroom made it hard to get up every morning! Well equipped kitchen if you do cook in but many pubs and restaurants, especially the Mistral, make it unnecessary!
Thank you Sarah and Mal. We hope to see you again!
Beautifully presented little cottage with lovely patio area where you can sit with a cup of tea or glass of wine, enjoying the incredible views and tranquility of this tucked away little gem.
This traditional cottage is just perfect for two. Spotlessly clean, open lounge and kitchen with all mod cons, wood burner and lots of information about the local area.
Upstairs the bedroom has a gorgeous Armoire for hanging clothes, a fabulously comfortable bed which is like sleeping on a cloud. The ensuite bathroom, although modern, like the rest of the cottage still has its lovely original features.
We didn't get to meet Sarah but Mal was a perfect host and explained everything we needed to know for our stay. Thank you Mal and Sarah we had a great stay and would love to come back.
We were regular visitors to the Peak District and moved to Wirksworth in 1998 because it gave us all we wanted - beautiful walking and cycling country and an open and friendly community - it is a vibrant town with local shops and a thriving creative community full of designers, artists, musicians and sculptors. Wirksworth has a quaint village feel but with the benefits of all the amenities of a small town (restaurants, cafes, pubs etc). We lived in the Wee House as a rental property when we first moved to Wirksworth and fell in love with the cottage. When it came up for sale we saw it as an opportunity to lovingly improve it, and turn it into one of the best and most enjoyed holiday cottages in Derbyshire.
The 'Wee House' is stylish, comfortable and extremely well appointed with stunning views from both the cottage and garden. It is a 'top spot' literally and also because of its proximity to Peak District attractions. This quaint miners cottage has many original features, oak beams, and floorboards, gritstone fireplace with log burner. The cottage is a mix of traditional and contemporary. Downstairs offers comfort and warmth whilst upstairs offers a french boutique feel which is light, spacious and peaceful. The area surrounding the 'wee house' dates back to the 17th century and is called the 'puzzle gardens' due to the random layout of cottages and pathways which gives it a similar feel to a cornish fishing village.
