Lovely large converted barn, lots of room for adults, children and dogs . Beautiful view across the valley, lots of walks from the door - can even go wild swimming in the lagoons nearby.

A lovely house in a beautiful, peaceful setting, with walks right from the doorstep. We've stayed in many similar rental houses and this was definitely one of the best stocked, going 'above and beyond' e.g. shampoo and conditioner provided, hair dryers in every bedroom, and a torch by every bed! The owners were very helpful and responsive to querieRead mores, including providing lots of info re pub/restaurant options in advance. Would definitely recommend! Hide

Beautiful cottage, the photos really dont do it justice. Unbelievably well equipped, fantastically clean throughout, really great layout of rooms making it feel very spacious even when at full capacity. The views are incredible, however the trade off for this is the steep drive up to the cottage which might be challenging in bad weather. Lots of paRead morerking space (we easily parked 4 cars), great walks on the doorstep and a short drive to lots of local attractions e.g Chatsworth. Just brilliant! Hide
