A peaceful place
Publié le 17 juill. 2024 sur HomeAwayWe were a little apprehensive about the vicinity of the A51, but did not find this intrusive. It was a gentle pleasure to see the canal boats going past, and the children on their morning route to the village primary school.

Nice property - good for a few days.
Publié le 8 mars 2024 sur HomeAwayGood property on side of canal. Have to park at pub & walk along towpath for about 20 yards under bridge (no issue for us). 2 great pubs - Tame Otter was outstanding. Bit noisy as main road bridge right next to property - but you can’t have it all!! Beds very comfortable & nicely furnished. Great for a few days.

Safety and access issues and a
Publié le 2 mars 2024 sur HomeAwayHello Laura,
Thank you for the use of your cottage and I did have a nice time. However, I sadly do think I should point out a few things.
The downstairs bathroom sink water is regurgitating up the shower waste and there were dirty particles within in. This was worse when I emptied a full sink of water. It also had a mild smell when that happened. The towel rail there is also very hot to touch.
The tap in the kitchen sink is rather wobbly. The microwave is not safe to use in its current position above the fridge freezer due to its height. I saw there was a collapsible step, which I'm guessing is to help with this problem, but again poses a safety issue.
There was a smell, I think from the kitchen sink, on Sunday eve which eased by Monday eve. It was acidic and not unlike cat pee. It did go away though and I suspect it's a drain issue.
I do think the addition of an access statement to your listing would be pragmatic. I found the stairs, in parts, to be difficult as there is not a continuous hand rail. They were also a little steeper than I'm used to. I had no idea the ensuite double was on a second floor and it did cause me some difficulty with my arthritis. It would also be helpful for other guests to know parking is a couple of hundred yards away and in a pub overflow car park.
The sink in the ensuite does not, as I see from the label you have placed on it, provide any hot water. I do believe this is a basic sanitary requirement for all bathrooms used by any member of the

Hi Alison,
Thank you for the detailed feedback.
Considering you had a nice time there is a very low rating and some negative feedback, you must have left out the positive bits !
However I will respond below to some of your answers
I am sorry the heated towel rail was to heated but this can be controlled by the guest on our hive system in the lounge.
The microwave is situated above the fridge because of the layout of the kitchen, there is a step to help people reach it if required.
Due to the position of the property (right on the canal) there historically was a smell but we have significant reduced this by investing large amount in the drain infrastructure under the property to enhance the guest experience. This has had a very positive result and significantly reduced the smell. As you will see no other guests have commented about this.
Sorry you didn’t feel the en-suite on the top bedroom was suitable for you , but again this was a large investment for us to have added as it wasn’t there when we purchased the property. It wouldn’t be possibly on the second floor.
Parking is less than one min walk from the accommodation and full details are sent prior to check in you will also see on the pictures that the property in on the toe path of the canal so there is not a drive to park on.
Yes the top sink is only cold water as it wasn’t possible to link it to the boiler.
As always we will review your feedback in detail and address anything we believe needs to be addressed.
Thanks for stopping with us

Pretty canal side cottage
Publié le 14 janv. 2024 sur HomeAwayI feel very fortunate to have found this pretty canal-side property in Hopwas
It’s about a 40 minute drive to Derby where I was visiting family .
The property is really unusual being on the canal tow path next to a gorgeous pub “the tame otter”
the property itself has everything you need and has a lovely cosy feel to it
although there’s not no direct parking outside it wasn’t a problem as you can park at the pub and it’s literally only a few metres to the front door walking under the canal bridge. .
The Tame Otter pub is also really worth a visit my daughter and I had a lovely meal there and they catered easily for her vegan diet
I absolutely loved my stay at the cottage
I’m just sorry to be going home so early.
Hope to return very soon ❤️

Great stay
Publié le 24 sept. 2023 sur HomeAwayWe had a wonderful trip. The house was just as advertised. It was so much fun being in the canal and seeing all of the boats pass by. Wondefuul walking trail and the pubs nearby were top notch. The town has a lot to offer. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Very Relaxing!
Publié le 28 juin 2023 sur HomeAwayWe had lovely weather and spent a lot of time sitting outside the cottage with a glass of wine while chatting to all the narrowboat owners passing by. Definitely take bird feed for all the ducks on the doorstep and the moorhens. Dog had 6 walks a day up and down the canal, he was in doggy heaven. Pubs right on the doorstep. Hope to return. xx
