House holiday rentals in Retford

We had a lovely time staying at the Old Angel with a large group of women. The sheer number of bathrooms was super handy with the large group number, and the living and dining spaces were super functional for a group of our size. There is a one half freezer and a large fridge, which Nicola had left some treats in which was a lovely touch. Bedrooms were well organised and very clean, with towels provided. There’s a village shop right next door, and a pub 20 meters away which was glorious in the May sunshine. Nicola and her team were very helpful in response to any questions/feedback we we had - overall we had a lovely stay and I would recommend this place to others!

Lovely cosy house which was clean and tidy. This was our second stay at Homestead and we will be coming back.

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.

Booked this for my partners birthday, we had the most amazing stay, everything was exactly like the pictures, Lucy was very welcoming and was very friendly! We had the most beautiful stay and we will definitely be booking again!! There is an amazing restaurant just down the road called the gatsby, we had food and drinks here food was delicious and service was excellent. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend a special day, had a lovely homely feel!

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.

Fantastic host, location and accommodation - stayed for a wedding nearby and extremely glad we did. Top class stay.

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.

Would most certainly recommend Cathrine’s place very homely spotlessly clean ,very central location once we got our bearings we could walk to shops movie cinema. Actually got to meet our Host on our departure so pleasant & easy to talk . Thanks again Cathrine hopefully we get back in the near future Deb & Wayne Michelle Fred Alan & Chris we all were very comfortable for 6 adults. 😀👍😎

A really ideal place to stay with simple but great facilities and careful thoughts to the details. Check in was easy and there is plenty of on street parking. The place was spotlessly clean. Highly recommended.

Gareth's place was no frills, comfy stay. We only stayed for a night and it worked for us. Really easy check in and out and great communication. Good price for what we got

Great location for a nearby family wedding Lovely place to stay, fully equipped and spotless. Village is great (went to the Royal Oak pub for drinks and food) walking through the village there were lots of other options but we didn’t have the time to try them Would recommend!

If you’re on the fence about booking this place, do it. Absolutely fantastic stay, immaculately decorated and spotlessly clean. Kate was a fantastic host who also provided some essentials for our stay which was so thoughtful. What a beautiful home and so peaceful. Everything about mill house and the host was fantastic, will definitely be back

We had a lovely couple of days at the house. It’s been renovated to a high standard, we were so impressed by how spacious, clean and modern the place was. Kathryn was great a communicating and very responsive. Thank you!

Excellent accommodation, had everything we needed for a couple of nights stay, place was spotless with a huge warm bath! Peaceful location with plenty of parking, perfect. Jayne couldn’t have been any more helpful or responsive, a true example of how an AirBnB host should be.

We found Kate's place to be of a very high standard. Beds were very comfortable. Very clean and tidy. The extras, such as homemade granola, plus milk and yogurt, and a couple of chocolates were much appreciated. The location was very peaceful. I managed to leave my phone charger behind which Kate is posting back to me!

Great initial communication with Steven and throughout. he proactively got in touch shortly before the stay and we easily arranged the check-in time as he was going to meet me at the property. I was closer to the end of window I said I'd be, but he was ready and waiting at the property. Had a nice chat about my journey and plans for the weekend, learning a little of Stevens history also, before a quick house tour. The house is easily accessible and I was lucky with the parking, finding a roadside spot directly outside, did appear to be parking up and down the street also. The house was clean and tidy. Very well stocked kitchen though I didn't use any of the tea/coffee/jams though I didn't use any of them. Overall, felt like a comfortable stay, home from home. Only downside was the heat and lack of a fan though in this British weather a fan would likely just push the warm air around the house 🤣

Great place for a few days visiting grandparents. Lovely secure garden for the dog and good downstairs space. Upstairs is compact, and the floorboards are quite noisy but other than that, all great.

Beautiful place to stay, just as described! Everything we needed was there, and so much space which was great as we were getting ready for my wedding. Rachael was great and helpful.

First about the Host - Lewis as a Host is all you need from one. Communicates very well/promptly with clear directions and instructions. Place - Like the host, place is exactly like it says on the tin (in this case the advertisement). I stayed here with my wife for her work trip and it was great. It is walkable to Oakham Business Park if you are ever working here. Amenities like few takeaways, local pubs, supermarket and a retail park with cinema are all 10mins walking distance from this place. Cost is very good for you get and the location. One of the things which is important for me, is on premise parking and unlike many other adverts on Airbnb, where they say it is on premise but then ends up being on the road, is not the case with this one. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a cost effective stay, close to Mansfield town center and not far from the motorway M1 with easy access to local amenities.

We've just spent a great week exploring and walking this part of the Peak District - staying at Peter's wonderful home Saunters in Darley Dale. Everything about Saunters is perfect - perfect location, quiet and peaceful with wonderful views across the countryside from the lounge and conservatory. Saunters provides a spacious and comfortable home in which to relax and unwind.

We enjoyed Lewis’ property immensely and felt totally relaxed and right at home from the moment we arrived. Lovely place from which to relax and explore the local towns, villages and countryside. Highly recommended.

Lovely and warm when we arrived. The sofas and beds were really comfy and nice to have a few bits in there that we could use especially the coffee as we forgot ours! Thank you!

Great house with everything we needed. Great value
