Stocksbridge 2.5 miles. Resting in the foothills of the Peak District National Park, within the idyllic village of Bolsterstone, you will find Chestnut. Renovated to a high standard, this former workshop is perfect for families or groups of six seeking an unforgettable escape to the countryside. Open up the pretty barn door and step inside this bright and homely abode adorned with colourful green furnishings and gorgeous red accents, where you can spend your evenings lounging on the plush velvet sofa as you watch an entertaining movie on the Smart TV, or cosy up in one of the armchairs as you warm your feet by the electric fire. Gather with loved ones at the round oak dining to play a board game or two, or crack open a bottle of wine and begin to map out all of your upcoming adventures. A few steps away, a contemporary white-gloss kitchen can be found boasting a sleek electric oven and an induction hob, as well as a handy washer/dryer and a dishwasher, providing a wonderful space to bake tasty treats and prepare many mouth-watering meals throughout your stay. Completing the ground floor is an airy cloakroom with a basin and WC, whilst a large family bathroom with both a spacious tub and overhead shower rests on the first floor. Tuck the children into the quaint bunk room as you send them off to sleep with their favourite bedtime story, before retiring to one of the two inviting doubles, each decorated with traditional country-style furnishings that add to the properties charm.

    And Sykes team super available - even at weekend - super polite and helpful and quick and reasonable. Excellent! Thanks, Terence

  • Lindelwe

    Very clean and had most of the stuff we required to make our stay comfortable. It was lovely chatting with the owner who was very friendly and welcoming. All the conveniences are nearby yet still has that quiet countryside feeling. There's a lovely outdoor seating area with BBQ stand, which was great to use in the evening whilst watching the sun set. The kids loved it and we were all sad to leave. We hope to be back again in the near future.

    The location is magical, but have your own drink for the evening... the pub may not be far away but a very steep hike. Will definitely recommend it to friends. Kitchen knives that cut would be great! Or bring your own sharpner!!
