Lovely BnB for a cosy stay in a great location!
We had a wonderful 1-night stay at the Family Tree. Our room was clean, cosy and decorated to a very high standard. The beds were very comfy and the hot chocolate provided was a welcome treat after a day of walking. We really enjoyed the breakfast with yogurt, fruit, pastry and cereal to begin and a great choice of hot food options to follow. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, allowing us to pick up our keys earlier than expected so we could enjoy a day exploring without having to pop back and check-in. The location was ideal for a nice walk along the canal path to Matlock, and conveniently close to the train station too. Overall this was a 10/10 stay and we'd love to come back in the future!

Lovely bnb!!
Very lovely and cosy room with a nice fireplace (for decoration) and bathroom! The breakfast was amazing, you get a continental tray and your pick of the hot meals menu which left us both full for the rest of the day. Would come here again if we’re ever in the area, 10 min drive from Matlock bath and very well priced

Great place, great staff, wonderful breakfast!
We stayed for two nights as we attended a wedding close by. We stayed in ‘Sycamore’ and the room and bathrooom were lovely - the bathroom had a shower and a bath. The rooms look out over a courtyard and although non-guests can use this area, it was surprisingly quiet. Special mention has to go to the staff and the breakfast, both of which were exceptional.

Our room was fantastic. Very comfy and cosy with tea, coffee, biscuits etc laid out neatly. The breakfast was truly amazing! An assortment of cold choices were initially offered and then a warm breakfast followed.
