Open & Honest Cottage with...
Liked: The “hosts” are very friendly, welcoming and glad human beings, they help you settle into their unique and homely B&B. Whilst space is premium they have endeavoured to maximise space & comfort. The house is ideally suited for entry into the Peak District and Dales.
Disliked: Whilst you can complain, its would be unjust And a dis-service to the hosts.

Delightful cottage, great position
Liked: Great position across from the train station (sheltered from view by trees), and short walk into town, and a lovely park with mountain views. Great hosts, excellent breakfast, free parking and comfy room with en suite. The garden, accessible from door next tho the room, is lovely.

Liked: I had a wonderful stay at Anne and John’s charming home. The room was spotlessly clean and delightfully cozy, making it easy to relax after a long day. Each morning began with a truly delicious breakfast—fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. There was acces to lovely garden as well. Altogether, Ann and John offer a warm, welcoming experience that I would gladly recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Perfect guesthouse in a perfect...
Liked: The location was a very short walk to Matlock town centre, right by the train station. The owners, Anne and John, were extremely friendly and helpful. Anne even checked a local shop opening time for us and also provided dinner recommendations in town. The room was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. We stayed in room 2 which has the sink in the bedroom and I thought would be weird but it wasn’t a problem at all. We also had our ensuite bathroom with toilet and bath/shower. There was parking opposite which i could use once Anne gave me a permit.
Disliked: There wasn’t anything I didn’t like. I would definitely stay here again.

Liked: Over the years I’ve stayed in a lot of different types of accommodation, but Ellen House is by far one of my favourites. Location is fantastic - close to the train station, town, and various starting points for walks/hikes. The rooms are spacious, super comfortable, and scrupulously clean. Toiletries are provided, as well as tea and coffee making facilities. There’s plenty of storage space, and extra blankets are also available. Breakfast is superb, and they kindly adapt the breakfast to your preference. Every day I tucked into a different dish, and thoroughly enjoyed each one!But my absolute favourite part of my stay were the hosts Anne & John - both of whom are incredibly welcoming and friendly without being intrusive. Having lived in the area for nearly 20yrs they have a wealth of knowledge and made some great recommendations. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.If ever I visit Matlock again I would not hesitate to rebook Ellen House. Highly recommended!
