House holiday rentals in East Leake

A thoroughly enjoyable stay. Wonderful location, the kids loved having a pool and playground (or 2 if you count the pub playground) at their doorstep. The views were lovely too. Also a testament to the layout was how easily pur kids ended up making friends with other kids there over such a short period. The only 2 things I would change - beds were too hard for me (but that is personal preference) and the showers weren't the best - though showers in the pool area were perfect. Clearly not something that would change my 5 star rating. A couple of other points - being so close to Carsington Water (1 minute drive) was superb. Ashbourne and Matlock also close and lovely locations - very much enjoyed our little excursions there and to The Heights of Abraham. Thanks, a lovely stay.

Really good place stay, easy to find. Had a great time!

Outstanding in every way. This cottage is worth more than 5* it simply cannot be beat. We have been to a lot of nice properties but Richard and Jo have made this property and their 16 acre land simply beautiful. Very nice people as well.

It was lovely inside and out and spotless there was 11 of us staying aged from 45-11 and not one of us had any faults they all thought it was great the only thing that the teenagers complained about was the pool closed at 6:30 and we had only gotten back from Alton towers at 6pm so maybe keeping it open a little bit later would benefit the younger crowd.

Perfect location for our little family. I wish we booked a larger space because there were more options if we didn’t book so last minute. Beautiful location and grounds. Nice facility’s for our toddler and run around and play…and an excuse for me to do the same!

Lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings, very clean and tidy. My children loved the pool and games room. Easy to get to all the main attractions will be coming back soon. Thank you for a great stay!

We had a great stay at knockerdown. We loved the pool and the play park was perfect for the children to play while I got dinner done. Overall it was a lovely environment and so close to local amenities. I am looking forward to staying again soon.

Lovely hosts, very friendly and very accommodating! The accommodations are even better in person, it is very cosy and me and friends had the loveliest time for my birthday relaxing weekend! All the amenities were provided, definitely worth the money and definitely enough space for everyone! Thank you so much, would recommend it. Only downside is that there is only two parking spaces available (which is stated) but we managed to find parking elsewhere for our 3rd car.

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautifully decorated barn house in Melbourne. As a family of four, it was perfect—spotlessly clean, incredibly comfortable, and so peaceful. We all slept soundly in the cosy beds and felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Eve had left some lovely surprises for us, and our children were delighted to relax in the garden with biscuits and squash after the journey. My husband and I enjoyed a glass of wine out there too—it was the perfect start to our stay. There was plenty to keep everyone happy, from books and DVDs to a great TV setup, and we made full use of the spacious kitchen for family meals. The location is brilliant too—within walking distance of several pubs and cafes. We had a lovely dinner at Harpurs and enjoyed a delicious breakfast at Birds Bakery. The property felt very private and secure, and Eve was a fantastic host—warm, helpful, and responsive. Thank you, Eve, for a perfect stay—we’ll definitely be back soon!

Great flat in such a peaceful part of the city yet so close to the centre. A real oasis. A bonus to have a beautiful patio to have breakfast on each morning. Communication was easy and there was a good info manual in the flat. We had a great weekend, thanks Sarah!

As soon as we saw the Garden House we relaxed straight away, it is a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the beautiful scenery and birds. Isabel’s handbook had lots of information and great instructions to walk around the estate and meet the sheep. The welcome pack was superb! Thankyou! We slept so well with the bird song waking us. We did venture out but it was great to get back to the comfort of the Garden house. I met Isabel who is a wonderful lady. We do hope to be back again Mary and David

It was a very clean and tidy apartment with everything we needed. The only issue was the hot water in shower, it kept going off and caused a difficult experience in the shower. Apart from this, everything was perfect!

Me and my friends greatly enjoyed our stay here, lots of space, well stocked kitchen with pots and pans, clean, warm, comfy beds, good price

I thank Lloyd for the amazing stay, he was very responsive. I would definitely recommend this property and I would like to visit again.

Adie made us feel very welcome, and made sure we had everything we needed. He left us bread, milk,cereals,teabags,coffee and even a bottle of wine, etc. We were just a little surprised that we had to be out by 10am, we could have done with a little longer. It was great that the dogs came and visited as we were missing ours. Thank you Adie for a wonderful place to lay our heads and get ready for our granddaughters wedding.

This cottage is what fairytales are made of ….absolutely gorgeous. Cozy and very well decorated . Our host Suz was very attentive and went above & beyond to make us feel at home . If I could live somewhere it’s certainly be this cottage . We felt emotional checking out what can I say….10/10

The house is a delight, and we were not disappointed with our stay. Mountsorrel has loads of cafes, restaurants and pubs. Only a 10 minute walk from house with Quorn just a mile up the road. A Waitrose is a 5 minutes walk. We would definitely stay again and many thanks to Jon and the cleaning team for providing a lovely home from home experience.

Lovely spacious house, spotlessly clean with everything we needed for the few days we were there. Had a lovely time and would reccomend to others 😊

Sunshine Cottage is a beautiful home. It was welcoming, cosy & exceptionally clean. Lovely views from the garden. We managed to park along the road near the Coop & it’s a short but fairly steep climb to the cottage. We had a brilliant few days with plenty of walking which is just what we were looking for. Thank you Naomi for being a fantastic host x

Annex was great - everything we needed ... even milk in the fridge ! Very spacious downstairs. Edward really helpful & quick to respond. Great location if visiting Holme Pierre Point Watersports Centre. Would stay again !

We had a great 7-night stay, the house was spotless, fresh, and just like the listing. There's a lovely little park right outside, and a supermarket and 24-hour fast food just a short walk away. Suport convenient and quiet, we felt right at home. Would definitely stay here again.

This was our third stay with Justin since April. I think that says it all. :-) During this visit, we were invited to select veggies from the ample garden to dine on. We enjoyed the fresh green beans. Please see our previous reviews for more details. Justin and is family went the extra mile to accommodate us and we really appreciate their kindness.

We were delighted with Sarah's cottage. It was extremely clean, comfortable and spacious. We were especially surprised to find it so well equipped with tea coffee, sugar condiments cooking oil and cleaning products etc. just like coming home. The area around was ideal for short country walks with our 2 and 4 year old grandsons who also loved the farm shop next with animals to feed and a small play area with ride-on tractors. Sarah was a brilliant host who replied very quickly to our communications and was very amenable to our requests. We would recommend this beautiful cottage for a peaceful few days away.

Beautiful home, relaxing atmosphere, close to the local grocery store. Would highly recommend, and stay here again!
