"The accommodation was extremely comfortable, spotless and well equipped."
Angela was very welcoming and friendly, nothing was too much trouble for her. I would highly recommend The Byre for a peaceful and relaxing break in a beautiful part of the country. The lemon drizzle cake Angela left for us was delicious and very much appreciated. All in all, no complaints whatsoever. We would have no hesitation in returning.

"Lovely 3 days away at the Byre."
We were warmly greeted by the hosts Brian and Julie and luggage the dog. The accommodation is in a beautiful setting with amazing views and spectacular sunsets. It is well placed as a base for exploring the surrounding area. Probably the best accommodation we have stayed in recently and will definitely look to rebook in the future. The enclosed front garden was a good place to relax for both us and our dog, who especially enjoyed exercising on the adjacent paddock. The Red Lion pub is a short walk away and has a nice outdoor seating area serving delicious food . We bought some beautiful flowers from Angela who has a honesty box at the end of the drive. Please believe the 5 star reviews you won't be disappointed

"We had a very enjoyable stay at the Byre."
Brian and Julie were very welcoming and helpful during our stay. The lemon drizzle cake was much appreciated. Overall, the cottage is delightful and a wonderful base for exploring the area.
-
"Excellent accommodation, had a lovely home from home feel."
Owners very welcoming and friendly. Location was very peaceful. A lovely cake supplied too. Only thing missing for us was a pizza wheel but we managed with a knife. Our girls loved the games and riddle book in the cottage.
-
"We last came seven years ago and return visits after some time can be a let down."
Not a bit of it. It was as perfect as we remembered. Spotlessly clean, well equipped with everything you need ( and no cupboard full of bits left by previous tenants!!) comfortable and peaceful. We have already booked our next visit.
-
"Absolutely fantastic stay at The Byre with lovely views across the countryside."
Nice & quiet & a fabulous base to explore Derbyshire with quaint towns & villages on the doorstep. Very well equipped & absolutely spotless with Brian & Julie next door offering any help & advice needed without being intrusive overall highly recommended & we’ll definitely be coming back again
-
"Lovely weeks stay here with my Husband and dog."
Cottage was perfect, had all we needed. Kitchen had all we needed to cook each night. Cosy and comfy bedrooms, living/dining room on the smaller side but for just us was perfect and added to the charm. Enclosed garden to the front of the cottage, great for my German Shepherd. Spotlessly clean throughout. Owners very helpful throughout the stay, luggage their dog was great. The surrounding views were beautiful. Lots of places to visit out and about, Cottage is a great base. Cannot fault it. Thank you for a lovely stay.
-
"Lovely barn conversion."
Lived up to the description online. Probably the cleanest and most well presented cottage in which we have stayed. Owners friendly but unobtrusive. Very rural, quiet and peaceful with easy access to delights of the Peak District. Great value for money!
-
"We were warmly welcomed for our 3 night stay."
There was tea, coffee and milk on arrival and a very tasty homemade lemon drizzle cake. The property is well situated for exploring peaks and dales. It is comfortable and cosy and I would definitely recommend. We missed out on pie night at the local, which was our only disappointment. Just a quick tip in very wet weather, the lane floods if approaching from Shirley, better to approach from Hollington end. Highly recommend.
-
"We had a wonderful stay at the Byre, thank you!"
Lovely lemon drizzle cake to greet us on arrival. We arrived late in the evening and the host had let us know we could contact her if we got lost in the dark which was lovely. A lovely, quiet location with plenty to see locally. Would definitely stay here again!
-
"We loved our stay at The Byre and very pleasantly suprised by the beautiful views from the cottage."
Our labrador enjoyed running around the fields at the property and the snacks! The cottage is so clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The location is great for visiting Dovedale, Ashbourne and the surrounding villages. We will be back!!
-
"The Byre is a lovely cottage in a wonderful location."
Having stayed in numerous holiday lets, The Byre is top of the pops. There wasn't a speck of dust, dirt, grease, or grime anywhere - it was spotless. We were welcomed by Brian and Julie, and although Angela was not there to supply one of her famous lemon drizzle cakes, Julie kindly provided a scrummy cream tea. Thank you both for lovely holiday. Five stars all round.
-
"Very clean, warm cosy cottage."

"A gorgeous, quirky, interesting cottage in a lovely setting."
There was a warm, friendly welcome from Elizabeth and Chris, and their 2 lovely Labradors. I hope to go back and stay again in the summer. Tastefully furnished and wonderfully decorated, with all the comforts of home. I loved Warkwarth , great eateries, good pubs and beautiful surroundings - highly recommended!

Immaculately clean with everything you need for a great stay, beautiful setting, walks from the door, a pub with great pies in walking distance, easy access to places of interest in the area and the best lemon drizzle cake ever. Angela , Jami and family take pride in their properties and are very friendly and helpful. If you choose to stay at the Byre you will not be disappointed. We will definitely be going back again.

"Lovely appointed and homely cottage with warm and welcoming hosts in a beautiful rural location."
Sadly the weather let us down so we weren’t able to take much advantage of the outdoor facilities - but Louie loved the access to the enclosed field where he could run freely with the other 2 dogs on site at the time. He certainly enjoyed his mini holiday!
-

Nice friendly people made our stay more enjoyable. Highly recommended. Will certainly be back in the future.
-
"A home from home stay, spotlessly clean and comfortable and the safety of the paddock for our Dyla Dog was a real draw."
Brian was an amazing host and full of recommendations of places to go. It certainly was one of our best Sykes Holuday accommodation in recent years. Recharged and working towards our next holiday, thank you to all that made The Byre such a great experience x
-
"Absolutely lovely!"
I didn’t want to leave
-
"Kitchen tap drips."
Shower head neck leaks when in use. Overall, excellent again.
-
"The cottage and surroundings were lovely."
The cottage was clean and tidy. The dog was very welcome and loved the field. The chicken was a hit with the children, especially when they were able to collect eggs. The owners were lovely and helpful. The beds were very comfortable. There was plenty of space for parking. It was lacking some basics, which would have been useful. For example, spare batteries, toilet role, Tupperware, enough cups/cutlery/glasses/crockery for 6 people (both cottages), sellotape, first aid kit, safety pins, sewing kit and different sized pots for the oven.
Apologies you thought we were missing a few basics. Just thought I should respond to help any future guests. I can confirm there was and is a fully stocked first aid box with safety pins in a cupboard in the kitchen. Along with the fire blanket and fire extinguisher . We do take health and safety very seriously. We leave a few toilet rolls for your arrival but the accommodation is classed as self catering, although we do supply all cleaning essentials for the kitchen. We are always on hand and happy to help though should you require or run out of anything. There should be 6 place settings and I note there are only 5 plates, so apologies for this, one must have got broken at some point. I will replace this immediately. We do supply 3 baking trays and pizza trays along with a couple of glass dishes, sorry if that was not sufficient I will put a few extra in. Sewing kit and spare batteries for the remote control are good idea thank you for this., I’ll put them in. I’m pleased you enjoyed your stay Property Owner

-

Extremely comfortable and so clean - one of the best places we have stayed. Very pet friendly and a secure patio garden. The use of the grounds and paddock an added bonus.

Two weeks here was a pleasure. We will definitely return.

The owners were really welcoming and friendly without being in any way obtrusive. The cottage is a delight, especially the lovely garden area with its comfortable furniture.

"We had a fantastic stay at The Byre."
It was perfect for a family with two small children. The accommodation is all on one level, with off road parking, the option of turning the king size bed into two singles (which was already done for our arrival) and plenty of board games. It was spotlessly clean, beds were extremely comfortable and it had everything we needed. Angela the owner was on hand if we needed anything. The Byre is located in a beautiful peaceful setting with lots of off road parking. After a long journey it was also really nice to arrive to tea, coffee, hot chocolate, milk and a very tasty lemon drizzle cake.

-
"We had a fantastic stay."
The Byre is really well equipped and spotless. We forgot tea towels but they was provided, the welcome pack was great and lemon drizzle cake was best I’ve ever tasted. There were also an iron and ironing board and hair dryer. As it was a smart TV we also enjoyed Netflix, it really is furnished and decorated to a excellent specification. We didn’t cook any evening meals or Sunday lunch, as we went to the Red Lion every evening to something to eat (0.7mile), however the dishwasher did come in very useful for breakfast dishes. The views out from the bedrooms and living room are lovely across Green fields, and no one looking in, we just watched the birds, pheasants, owl, and falcon was seen, there is a blue-tit nesting in the bird box so we enjoyed watching it fly in/out so close. The location was perfect for us was we go walking and birdwatching regular so it was ideal location for Middleton Lakes, Carsington water and the Attenborough nature reserve, we also visited 1 National Trust house, sadly as November, most places were closed for winter. Lastly, it was so clear at night the stars was so visible. Overall, it was a hone from home and we will definitely return (hopefully in summer) when there are more places open to visit. Thank you again for the warm welcome and fabulous stay.

"Booked the cottage for myself, husband, 3yr old and our dog."
The cottage is beautiful with a lovely front garden opposite a field. It is located in the quiet countryside with a small village not far away. There is a secure paddock next to the field to let your dog run around which was great to use. The cottage was lovely and clean and spacious for us all. All the facilities you could need are available. The owners/family onsite are very friendly and will do anything to help. This is by far one of the nicest cottages we have stayed in and will definitely return.
-
"No, everything about the cottage was lovely and comfortable, owners were nice people, made us welcome and the goody’s they provided were much appreciated, especially the lemon drizzle cake, the byre is out in the countryside and the views from the cottage were lovely, alas the weather was awful, rain and very cold, not conducive for sitting outside pubs and cafes, we are both elderly, just so glad the cottage was so nice and we could stay in and eat, you can’t do anything about the weather it’s the awful pandemic and the restrictions."
-

About the location
HOLLINGTON, DERBYSHIRE
Ashbourne 6 miles.
Steeped in history and situated at the southern end of the Peak District, the lovely village of Hollington, mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, provides home to a scattering of traditional brick built cottages, old farmhouses and barn conversions, whilst being surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside and offering a number of country pubs renowned locally for excellent service and fine cuisine. Nearby Ashbourne is the perfect example of an English market town, boasting an eccentric street plan, narrow, cobbled alleys, old market stalls and many fine coaching inns. In its heyday, during the 18th century, the town was a fashionable social centre and many fine Georgian buildings remain from this period. Today the town still has much to offer with a good selection of restaurants, whilst being regarded as something of a haven for antique hunters - but don't expect a bargain! For those who prefer outdoor pursuits, the Dove and Manifold Valleys are close by offering good walking and cycling, whilst Alton Towers is just 25 minutes away!
This property offers the following short breaks:
- Winter
- Off-season
- Last minute
- Christmas
