  We had a delightful stay at Farley Cottage II during Christmas time.

  The property is easily accessible and super easy to find, identifiable. It was super easy to park just in front of the cottage. The area is green and you can easily sit on a bench or close to the garden if you want enjoy nature for a while. The cottage is decorated simply and with taste. Some decorations were out for Christmas without it it to be overwhelming. It looks just like on the pictures. A corridor leads you to the main room to the right with an open kitchen, a table for four and a couch with a well connected tv. We were able to watch our favorite Christmas movies on Netflix, Disney and Prime without having to grab our chrome cast. The kitchen was well equiped, with everything you can need to prep a christmas meal. There is no dishwasher but since it's a cottage for two, that's no issue. The host provided new and clean towels. The washing machine was a plus. There also was a vaccuum so you can keep the cottage extra clean. The bathroom is welcoming and the water warm and that's a plus. We have to say it was pretty cold when we got there, just at the beginning of winter and it is great that the host provided small electric radiators to help the place warming up. We were comfortable very quickly and could really appreciate the warmth and calm we needed. The bedroom is on the second floor and it is pretty cozy and comes with another tv we connected with our Chromecast. The bed was comfy and there were enough fluffy duvets to satisfy a whole family. We had quiet nights and could use the widely openable windows to get some fresh air when we needed. We appreciated the little presents the host welcomed us with. About the host, they have been discreet and the contact was easy through the app. The only criticizes we could give is that there was a lack of electric plugs to warm the bathroom and vacuum, and one good size mirror would be convenient downstairs for vain people like me. We however survived happily without it and a big mirror is to be found in the bedroom. We recommend this place to anyone who likes a quiet stay in a green area with everything they may need. The place was super super clean and very welcoming and I highly recommend it !

  We had a lovely time at the Frog Meadow Barn.

  We stayed for four weeks so we had lots of time to experience the property throughout. The cottage is very well situated at the end of the cul-de-sac with a big clean private drive. Very quiet and peaceful property. The owners live right next door but we didn't really see them very much and felt very private. But when we had an issue the owner was on hand and we got it solved very quickly. The property is rather spacious and very well equipped for a long stay or even having some people over. The kitchen has everything you need or could wish for. Coffee, tea and spices are provided. Maybe the kitchen worktops could do with a bit better lighing though. We even got some wine and snacks provided. Very thoughtful. Thank you!! The beds are really comportable, the double bedroom very spacious and the wardrobe was even big enough for a month long stay. Very thoughtful decoration themes going on and lighting throughout the barn made us feel very cosy and comfortable. I terms of entertainment there is a big smart TV with anything under the sun to watch. Also tones of DVD's, books and magazines to indulge in. Infortunately due to cold weather we didn't enjoy the garden. But the view of the country side and padocks from the living room was definitely one of many blessings that made this stay a memorable one. The owners didn't spare a penny to make us feel welcome and comfortable. All in all it's a five star property, situated in a beautiful setting and owned by a very hospitable couple. Anyone looking for a treat should definitely consider it!!!

  We went to meadowside for a family outing.

  The property was in a lovely location. It is near to all amenities and wonderful sightseeing locations. The house itself was wonderfully maintained. The hosts Jan and Terry were so inviting and helpful. Jan has done a lot of detailed thinking on house decoration, her attention to detail was immaculate. The view from the house opening to back garden and mountain is breathtaking. The hosts have thought about smallest detail, like how to guides with diagrams for using TV, a good collection of DVD's, nice collection of cookies, sightseeing pamphlets and local restaurants suggestions with menus. Our car broke down and they also have helped us with finding a local mechanic and made us feel incredibly welcome. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and strongly recommend the property.I will most probably return back just to enjoy the quiet and calm along with the host#s's hospitality. This visit was fully satisfying and give 5 stars. ***** Loving regards, Gowri :)

  We had a lovely 5 night stay in the Old Sty.

  I can’t normally sleep the first night of being away from home, but had no problems at all, the bed was very comfy and the accommodation and facilities were spotless. We new when we booked the Old Sty, there wasn’t much around within walking distance, and that is why we chose this accommodation. There are plenty of nice walks, the nearest pub is 45mins walk away. We had a lovely trip to Dovedale, Alton Towers is only 10 mins drive away. Julie and Jason are very friendly and are only a text away if you need them. Would definitely recommend to friends and family. If you want to get away from it all, this is definitely a place for you. The fresh eggs were lovely too and the welcome pack of biscuits and a bottle of wine was a lovely gesture.

  The "Old Sty" was ok and the people were friendly enough, although they were away on holiday the following day for a week.

  The problem we had was the extremely uncomfortable beds. So very hard that we may as well have slept on the floor. So bad that after 4 nights I really wanted to come home. I did explain this to the Father in Law who I saw in the yard and he said that he knew they were new beds and could only sympathise. We were taking pain killers before going to bed and again in the morning when we struggled with lack of sleep and pain. The only reason we stayed was the cost of the weeks break. We struggled on until the Thursday and I just couldn't take another night in that bed. So we left a day early and have never been so glad to be back in my own bed. Over many many years we have slept in no end of beds but never ever been so uncomfortable as in those beds.
