A wonderful little place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday strife

Great place for exploring the white peak; quieter than many more ‘touristy’ places but within easy distance if you want that vibe

Lovely house in an idyllic small hamlet (2 pubs, a school and a church). This was the perfect space for us as we were attending a family wedding nearby. Lovely and clean with everything you need for a short stay. There is no mobile signal at all in the village and the wifi is a bit patchy so be prepared for a digital detox. Also make sure you mark the location on google maps manually (corner of Greenway and Greenview) as you can be taken to the wrong address otherwise - not fun after a long drive!

The facilities in the cottage were fantastic, the welcome tray was a nice touch, the communication prior to our visit was excellent.all 4 bedroom are beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable. The location was perfect for our needs. The outside space was peaceful and well kept. Idillic! Nothing to improve upon.

The Barn was an absolutely wonderful base to explore the Peak District. The home had everything you needed to have a pleasant stay including some very comfy beds, perfect after those long walks! The hosts even left us a welcome basket with snacks, jam and prosecco which we felt was a lovely touch. Overall we really enjoyed our trip and would recommend The Barn to anyone looking to stay in the area. The dishwasher wasn't the best at cleaning the dishes and there wasn't a sponge provided to do the washing up. A very minor detail though and we managed just fine! Everything else was great.

A wonderful cottage with plenty of space, for all 6 guests and great spaces to cook, eat and create lasting memories. Perfectly located for people looking for plenty of walking trails within the immediate area - and never too far away from a pub. Beautiful scenery.

The Barn was a great base for our weekend in the Peaks. Allowed us great access to the National Park and some of the most beautiful walks. The house was spacious and the kitchen was well-equipped for self-catering, and the beds very comfortable.

The house was generally ok but we found a very dirty pan and what we believe was rat poo in one of the kitchen cupboards. I sent photos to Peak Staycations and they said they'd investigate but they didn't get back to me, even after I followed up. We tried to avoid opening the cupboard but it made us jittery. Even if it wasn't rat poo (it looked very like it and it was also weird that everything had been cleared out from where it was), there shouldn't be dirt in cupboards or dirty cookware.
