Perfect B&B.
Sue and John were very welcoming and couldn't have done more for us.
Room was very spacious and comfortable. It was well equipped with lots of attention to detaill.
Everything was spotlessly clean in the room and the communal areas.
Breakfast was excellent with a good choice .
Only downside was the road which was a bit challenging but we got used to it!

Lovely B&B

Lovely B&B. Clean, spacious and quiet. Breakfast was really good.
Close to Matlock by foot. However, it’s quite on a hill. So not so practical for people with mobility issues.

Perfect B&B with lovely owners

The owners were lovely, welcoming and had thought of absolutely everything guests might need during their stay…nothing was too much trouble. Room was quiet, clean and loved the fridge given the hot weather. Location is 20minute walk into both Matlock and Cromford. But location is very hilly for both walking and driving with no local shops.

Ok for 1 night stay

Booked based on great reviews from other travellers. 2 night stay at Gables. Negatives - Booked a double which was zip and link beds. Mattress old and too hard for us plus you could feel the join in the middle. Very small room and en-suite door dragging on the floor. Positives. Very nice breakfast and very clean throughout. Wouldn't stay again due to comfort of bed.

Lovely, freindly, owners, very helpful. Beautiful veiw, very tasty breakfast, great value for money. Only small pointers are the bath whilst looking amazing was very uncomfortable as was the toilet seat (just personal preference). Also just bare in mind the quadruple room is a standard double and double sofa bed for the kids to share.

Fantastic B & B!!!

We had a lovely stay at The Gables Bed and Breakfast. It's a bit tricky to get to up the narrow lanes and hills (I wouldn't want to try it in the winter when it's a bit icy) but once there the view is fantastic and the couple who run it are really friendly and attentive. We had the suite which had a large double bed and fold out double sofa-bed for the kids. The room was clean and comfortable, with a TV and the bathroom was very nice. Breakfast was amazing, there is Wi-Fi and you can also use the sitting room to watch a film or relax for a bit. Overall we had a lovely stay and I'd highly recommend this B & B

Gorgeous hillside b&b

This was our second visit and we'll be back again! Such a gorgeous b&b, lovely hosts, great breakfast and stunning views. The family room is really comfortable and has the most AMAZING bath and shower, the only problem is it makes you want a new bathroom at home! Thank-you for another fantastic stay.

Fantastic B&B with beautiful view!

Wow! What a beautiful place, set up a steep hill overlooking the stunning scenery of Matlock. We were so well looked after by John and Sue, we were welcomed with yummy Victoria sponge cake and they were perfect hosts. The family room is amazing and has the best bathroom ever! Local pub within walking distance (down the hill). We will certainly return and would highly recommend a stay here.

jolie adresse à Matlock

joli Bed and Breakfast.
bon service. Joli petit déjeuné avec des fruits frais.
notre chambre contenait deux lits qui aurait pu être reliés et attachés ensemble pour n'en faire qu'un.
Jolie petite salle de bain privée.
seul défaut, la route pour monter est assez étroite. Heureusement qu'il y en a deux.(nous pouvons donc choisir laquelle nous voulons)
