"It is a gorgeous place, beautiful and peaceful location, extremely cosy and the hosts are very welcoming and helpful."
We also loved the secure gated garden for our dogs. The downstairs bathroom is spacious and luxurious, as is the kitchen and the sitting room very cosy with a lovely open fire. Our friends very much enjoyed the hot tub, too. An upstairs bathroom and slightly firmer mattresses in the twin room would make it perfect.

"Tim and Rosie were on hand for any questions, they were both so welcoming and friendly."
The property was spotless and had everything we could possibly need. We all had a wonderful time and were overwhelmed with the property, it is beautiful and so comfortable and cosy, we will be back again! Thank you Tim and Rosey for making us all feel so welcome you were the perfect hosts with the perfect property xxx

"Lovely cottage in a very nice part of the county."
Long walk to local pubs but an easy drive. Hot tub was great. Definitely recommend.
Thanks for the feedback Matthew. You have a lovely family and we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. We'd be delighted to see you again. Property Owner

"There is no welcome pack only 4 sheets of A4 paper of rules and instructions."
The parking is extremely restricted, having to reverse out of a tight space. The beds are cheap and very uncomfortable, you can feel the springs through the mattress. The photo of the property is misleading, you only get a third of the property. There is no privacy, as the windows at the front of the property are overlooking the owners garden and the rear garden which you can use is overlooked by the owners main kitchen window, plus you have to walk through the owners garden to access the property, where the hot tub is located. I had to pay a £125 good house keeping deposit on top of the rental and insurance which was returned after our stay. However, this wasn't mentioned prior to our booking. I didn't receive a receipt or any information as to what I'd paid the deposit for. Terms and conditions etc. Our general experience was that everything was about the owners making as much money as possible and not about the guests stay from no welcome gifts, to cheap toilet handwash and a dirty kitchen sponge. On a personal note, we had just driven 4 hours to stallington Hall Farm only to be greeted by Tim with rules concerning the use of the property. Maybe next time have a pint of milk ready and add your rules to your A4 paper.
We are naturally disappointed that you didn't enjoy your stay with us but take on board the feedback. We work hard to provide comfortable accommodation to everyone, and with the number of 100%'s we receive, most people are extremely happy. Our guests are the priority. Sykes literature clearly states that this is an owner attached cottage. We only saw you twice in the week you were here. We often don't see our guests other than arrival or departure. Mattresses are very personal but I've checked the beds and the mattresses are quite new and no springs in my back (15 stone). We exceed the 4* rating that Sykes stipulates but will add a pint of milk to the elements we already provide. Our drive fits 8 cars but has a bend at the start. Not usually a problem. Property Owner

"What a fabulous place to stay, so peaceful and everything you could need!"
Such a friendly welcome too! Can’t recommend enough.
Many thanks for the feedback. We're glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

"Had a lovely stay."
The owners, who live next door, were helpful and welcoming. A super country location whilst being surprisingly close to all amenities. My 7 year old wants to live here.
We're pleased that your stay was fabulous. Property Owner

"A lovely and informative welcome from Rosie, Get well soon Tim!"
: ( And so the Fab week began. The cottage was absolutely lovely, from the roaring fire to the well equipped kitchen to the bed and beyond into the hot tub : ) a big family favourite. Great surroundings, and not far to drive anywhere for good dog walker and supplier of the food and liquid variety : ) Thank you again, The Poutney's
Many thanks for the feedback. We're pleased that you had an amazing holiday with us. Property Owner

"Lovely birthday week - fantastic hot tub, well equipped cottage."
Family time spent walking and chilling which is just what we needed, Thank you Tim and Rosie
Many thanks for the feedback. We enjoyed accommodating you all. Property Owner

"There are several things that we think could be improved, not only with the property but also the "lack" of "care" from the owners."
We were here when the temperature was below freezing all week. The path to the front door was old, well worn and shiny brick. It was covered in ice all week and not once was salt/grit put onto it. The bathroom is large and there was only one working radiator to warm it, which it only just did. The towel rail didn't work at all. The kitchen had dust and cobwebs in a few areas. We appreciate that the property is grade 2 listed but some of the windows are in need of replacing as they did let a lot of draughts through. When you pay a £100 supplement to use the hot tub it is not very fair for the owner to complain that the water temperature had been increased or for a restriction to be put on certain functions of the tub. If the owners are concerned about their electricity bills perhaps they shouldn't be allowing usage during winter months. Clearer instruction should also be given regarding recycling waste bins, e.g. when they should be put out rather than the owner walking through to the kitchen just before patrons are about to eat and female guests are in nightwear. A welcome pack should also be considered for guests, including milk and small loaf of bread perhaps, to make people feel welcomed. Maybe even some locally produced goods such as cakes, scones, jams etc could be left to promote the area. There are a number of cables and wires that should be tidied up and made safe behind the TV as they are currently a trip hazard. The hot tap in the upstairs toilet needs fixing as it does not turn on. And the toilet seat was loose. The cottage itself is nice enough, but more care and attention needs to be taken regarding all of the above. Unfortunately, we couldn't and wouldn't recommend the property.
Dear Sadie, I was surprised to read your comments but apologise if you misread our advices regarding the tub usage, your health and safety concerns, or our attention to detail. As per our information pack, if we'd have been informed of any concerns at the outset of your stay we'd have done our best to remedy them at the time, and not after you'd left us. (When the garden pipe burst outside the cottage and this was brought to my notice I had the pipe replaced within 30 minutes. We can't always respond quite so quickly but we do prefer to rectify problems rapidly where possible) If I may I'd like to answer point by point. Freezing Conditions: It was unfortunate that you happened to book a week when temperatures plummeted to -7 or lower, but when hosting at a 500 year old timber frame cottage it does come with some challenges. One of the main things is drafts on occasion particularly when its very windy, and the wind is often approaching the cottage from across the fields. I don't know which windows you are referring to but we haven't had similar feedback from other guests since we brought our carpenters in to conduct some urgent remedial works on the living room window just a couple of weeks prior to your stay. Most of the other windows are double glazed. On arrival we give our guests important information as to the logistics for their stay. This briefing is kept as short as possible but covers topics such as entry/exit from the property, proximity to local dog walks pubs etc, health and safety aspects of the listed cobbled path by your front door, and use of the hot tub for optimal comfort of the guest. H&S: With the paths, holiday companies and insurance companies advise owners to "not" put grit or salt down during freezing conditions as this transfers responsibility onto the owner should someone fall and hurt themselves. It would be surprising to me if you have not received safety briefings at other properties. We always advise guests as to uneven surfaces on arrival and in our guest pack. Hot Tub Use: We explain how the hot tub cover should be removed in the easiest and safest way so as not to break the cover or injure the guest. In addition we describe the control buttons, there use, and suggest which ones don't need to be touched as they will affect the water cleaning process and/or maintaining the tub at a good temperature. We set the tub to 39 degrees as standard, but if guests specifically like their skin to come away from their body we have no problem with it being increased to its top temperature of 40 degrees. Many guests press buttons and set the temperature too high by accident, or put the tub on standby (off) or eco (minimises cleaning and temperature management procedures) so we recommend that guests avoid those buttons. I asked about why the temp was set to maximum after I'd turned it down for a couple of days on the run. You explained your preference and it was left at maximum for the remainder of your stay. It really makes little difference to the cost at all and guest comfort is our priority that's all. Cleaning: Rosie spends at least 2-2.5 hours just cleaning the kitchen every week on turnaround day. This is a timber framed cottage and there are spiders sharing our accommodation. We try to remove all webs from the property but if we missed one or two then I apologise. It wouldn't have been presented as if for a Halloween event though I'm sure. Information Pack: We have 3-4 pages of helpful information in our guest pack. If we have omitted to say that Friday is our usual collection day (bank holidays excepted) then we'll make the addition. Thanks for that feedback. WC seat and tap upstairs. I hadn't been notified about the seat so will rectify this asap, but the tap was working fine on Saturday when the room was cleaned. Its not driven from a combi boiler so there can be a delay while hot water works its way through the property. Collection of recycling: This is my mistake and I take that on the chin. You had all been so friendly and accommodating during our few interactions during the week that I thought I'd save you the trouble of taking the recycling up the drive yourselves. That said, I would like others to know that I knocked the door and asked if I could remove the bin. I didn't just rush through pushing everyone out the way in some sort of smash and grab manoeuvre. I've learned from your perception of my goodwill. Again, your feedback was unexpected but appreciated at the same time. We take an absolute pride in providing guests with a fabulous experience here. I think that the positive response another member in your party left in our visitor book is more in line with the general experience that our guests have had too since we opened up to holiday guests in 2005. Best wishes Tim Property Owner

"We had a great stay over new year."
The property was well equipped, clean and the hosts were welcoming and helpful. We would definitely return. Thank you.
Many thanks for the feedback. We'd love to see you all again too. Property Owner

"Booked the farmhouse for the week so we could celebrate our eldest 40th birthday (Big thank you to Rosie and Tim for supplying the banners!"
) Hired the hot tub which was fab and came with the intention of chilling out and relaxing, which is just what we needed. The farmhouse is a credit to you Tim and I know the effort you went to, so as to complete it to such a high standard along with all the little extras that I'm sure Rosie created along the way! We had a lovely time and would highly recommend your farmhouse to anyone wanting a peaceful relaxing stay. (Although storm Pia was exiting!)
-
"The hosts were so helpful and friendly."
The cottage was quaint and lovely to stay in. We had a fantastic week and did lots of walking with the dogs. It’s an ideal location for so many places and would definitely stay again if in the area.
-
"Had a fantastic time, beautiful place to stay with great hosts."
The cottage was very well equipped a comfortable home from home. The hosts were very welcoming and always happy to help with anything. Would strongly recommend a stay here.
-
"Lovely cottage in a lovely area, great garden for the dogs plus plenty places for good walks."
Rosie and Tim are great couple made to feel very welcome and would do anything to help we really couldn’t fault the place great time had by all and dogs loved it.
-
"Very nice cottage, very clean and welcoming, good enclosed garden for the dog, secure off road parking which is always a plus, everything you need in the kitchen and lounge, friendly and helpful hosts in Tim and Rosie."
The only negative comment is in relation to the beds. The bed frames are quite flimsy and creak when you move. The mattresses on the 2 double beds are very soft and saggy ... they definitely need replacing. Just a small suggestion ... a small 'welcome basket or box' of tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits (for both humans and dogs) with a small drop of milk in the fridge would be a nice touch on arrival to refresh after a long journey. I have always found this a nice gesture in other cottages we have stayed at. To be fair, there were canisters on the kitchen windowsill which may have had items in them, but as we brought our own, I didn't check. Despite the weather, we thoroughly enjoyed our stayed and would certainly recommend this cottage to dog owners.

"Found stallington hall farm very nice very relaxing you get what is on the tin ."
tim and rosie are very helpful and very friendly . genuine lovely people.
-
"Had a lovely sunny week at cottage."
Cottage well sited for potteries and steam trains. Slept 6 adults and 3 dogs comfortably. Tim and Rosie were lovely hosts and very helpful. Stairs were a bit of a challenge for able bodied 83 year old and 6'4 son in law but we managed! Nearest rapid EV chargers at Windmill pub and Lidl Longton.
-
"Lovely, cosy cottage with super kitchen diner and everything necessary for a home away from home."
The hosts were on site but not at all intrusive. The cottage was charming if a little quirky - we loved it.
-
"Fantastic break, the perfect hosts as they were there when we needed them, but didn’t interfere with the stay at all."
Highly recommended to anyone looking for a weekend away with friends or family.
-
"The cottage is beautiful."
Very spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed the peace and quiet. Hot tub was amazing. The dogs lived it too. Rosie and Tim are wonderful hosts. They are welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a wonderful week. We will return.
-
"Lovely cottage, lovely hosts on hand close by and lovely area."
We definitely recommend a stay here.
-
"Lovely welcome from the owner on our arrival."
A quick run through of things to know and we were left to enjoy our holiday knowing that they were available if we had any questions. Hot tub was lovely, nice and clear and a great temperature. Lovely property and would recommend. It’s worth mentioning that the stairs are steep but this was a minor detail for us. Thanks to the owners for sharing their property
-
"Kitchen was well furnished and well layed out."
The internet was a little slow but I guess thats par for the course for the area. The field next door for the dogs was a great plus. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
-
"The cottage was absolutely perfect with everything you could need for a self-service holiday included."
The owners were very friendly and always willing to help… but were also happy to leave us to ourselves. The hot tub area was kept scrupulously clean and the water checked daily to ensure it was clean and hygienic. The only minor thing we wanted to mention was that it might be worth investing in some non-stick saucepans, as the ones available in the cottage caused the food to keep sticking. Overall it was the best holiday cottage we’ve ever stayed in and we would certainly be happy to stay there again, and would recommend it to anyone who wanted a relaxing, yet active, holiday. Thank you to Rosie and Tim for a wonderful week.
Many thanks for the positive feedback. You were are the first to say about the pans getting worn out. You were right, obviously, so we have immediately changed them. Guest comments are always very welcome. We hope to see you again. Property Owner
-
"Fabulous accommodation everything you need is there, beautiful area, comfortable beds,would recommend to anyone."
-
"We haven’t stayed in a better holiday home."
Everything about the cottage is amazing, the quality of furniture, kitchen equipment, towels and bedding! It was fabulous and so much for the children to do. I would have no hesitation in going back there. The owners were amazing too, couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. Thank you
-
"The most picturesque and comfortable cottage we have stayed at."
Hosts we very amenable and helpful. The dogs loved their stay great walks -we will be back.
-
"We had a lovely relaxing stay at the cottage, the hot tub was a fantastic addition, our boys loved the xbox!"
The cottage is very well maintained, lovely and warm and the owners Rosie and Tim are always on hand with local knowledge and helpful tips for a really enjoyable stay, we will definitely be rebooking! Highly recommend a stay at Stallington Hall Farm!
-
"This was a lovely venue and Rosie was easy to communicate with, friendly and welcoming."
We'll certainly be keen to return! Especially to the wonderful hot tub!
-
"Can't fault it!"
Hosts welcoming and accomodating. The house is beautifully renovated, has all modern facilities but retains its character - beams, open fire, etc. Being an older property we expected a draft or two but it is cosy and toasty warm without the need of the open fire! The kitchen was very well equipped, the shower amazing and plenty of books, games, etc. to help while away the evenings. Our dog was very much welcomed which was appreciated. We have no reservations in recommending this cottage.
-
"We had the most wonderful time and we cannot wait to come back again hopefully this summer"
-
"We were incredibly surprised by how nice, comfy, clean and well equipped the cottage was."
The owners were also incredibly welcoming and were on hand to provide anything we needed whilst never being intrusive. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
-
"Lovely holiday let, great owners and great location."
-
"Owners on hand when needed, but not intrusive."
The house is lovely and well suited to times when the weather is inclement, as well as a contained garden, bbq and hot tub when the weather is good. Local amenities are good, with good places to eat if you don’t want to make use of the well appointed kitchen. The visitor book is informative of some local beauty spot/walks, and if you have a dog then don’t worry as even these are well provided for. We will definitely return,
-
"The cottage was beautiful lovely and clean everything anyone could ask for."
Tim and Rosie were the perfect hosts and made us feel like we had known them for years. I definitely will be booking again it was a fantastic 2 weeks.
-
"We had a great time staying at Staninghall farm."
Great cottage, owners couldn't have been more friendly or helpful, and a great place for the dogs.
-
"The host's are a lovely couple who could not do enough for you, the cottage is beautiful and very well equipped."
We will definitely be returning in the future
-
"Lovely quiet area ."
Very clean & comfortable cottage, with little extras like xbox, Netflix, tea & coffee, soap etc. Very friendly & helpful owners. Couldn't fault it. Had a lovely chilled few days. Thankyou
-
"Beautiful accommodation, welcoming hosts, glorious location - looking forward to returning."
-
"Stallington Hall Farm is a beautiful property and the owners are a lovely couple who couldn't do enough to ensure we had a great stay."
There was everything we could need and more at the cottage. It was very clean and cosy and the hottub was a welcome sight after a long day of walking. The property is on a quiet road with plenty of garden space and a perfect location for exploring the Peak District. Of note the owners/cottage are extremely dog friendly which was a massive help to us as we often struggle to find accomodation that will take our 3 pooches. There was also a high chair, stroller and travel cot as well as plenty of books, DVDs and even an xbox. Stallington Hall Farm certainly gets a 5 star rating from our family and we hope to visit again in the future! Thank you for a perfect week.
-
"Super cottage and the owners were great."
..really helpful and friendly
-
"Absolutely loved every minute of our stay Stallington Hall Farm."
The hosts were extremely friendly, helpful and to say they lived on site, I barely saw them! We didn't make use of the hot tub but this was a lovely added bonus that, if it was a little warmer, we may have made use of. It was completely dog friendly, I have three large dogs and we all stayed in the cottage very comfortably. It's a central location to several gorgeous, long country walks (it feels as if you're in the middle of nowhere, it's so gloriously quiet!) and surrounded by local pubs and supermarkets so you're never too far away from 'reality'. I also can't stress enough how happy I was to have a washing machine in the cottage!!! Cannot wait to stay at this cottage again in 2021, highly recommended for families, couples and dogs alike!
-
"We had a wonderful short stay here."
The cottage is beautiful, we can’t wait to return. Highly recommended.
-
"Lovely cottage fabulous hot tub ."
.. everything you need for a staycation!
-
"Firstly l would like to say how welcome Rosie and her hubby made us."
The cottage was everything we had hoped it would be.
-
"Lovely cottage and owners, we had a lovely, relaxing week."
-
"Had a great week in this lovely cottage, we all wanted to take the beds home with us they were so comfortable."
Lots of nice walks and plenty of dog friendly places to eat. Very friendly, helpful owners.
-
"Smaller than what we thought but cost and comfortable."
Owners Tim and Rosie very welcoming and helpful.
-
"A lovely place for a girlie get together!"
Hot tub was fantastic, well equipped kitchen, home from home, cosy, warm and comfortable. The only downside was having 1 bathroom that was fine for 3 but I could imagine it being a bit of bind if there was 6 of us, but there was a toilet upstairs. Would definitely recommend it!!
-
"Great cottage, everything we needed."
-
"This was a most relaxing and very comfortable place to stay."
The fire in the living room added that nice cosy feel to the house. The hosts were welcoming and met us on our arrival to show us around the place other than that they left us to ourselves but were always available if we needed anything. The beds were comfortable we all slept well. The kitchen was a great place to socialise and the garden was secure so we had no issues with the dog trying to escape. The local pub was dog friendly and did good food. All in all we had a great time. Looking forward to a return visit. We would thoroughly recommend this accommodation. Thanks to the owners Tim and Rosey for their attention to detail.
-
"Great cottage- beautiful, clean, modern refurbishment."
Dog friendly with fenced in garden. Private parking. Loved it
-
"Hosts very welcoming could not do enough to help great food recommendations everything was so relaxed and easy."
-
"The cottage was beautiful."
It is a very sympathetically restored 500yr old black & white beamed house that retained all its character while being decorated and fitted out to suit the 21st century. A hot tub, WiFi, Netflix and an XBox for the downtime, a good oven, dishwasher and washing machine - and all the matching crockery, glassware, cutlery, pans and trays etc you could ever need. It seemed every item had been chosen not just for its utility, but also it's looks and the furnishing, linen and towels reflected the same care. Finally, it's location was good to get to so many areas easily and you are given an electronic fob to open and close the electric gates so you always knew your car was parked up safely. We just don't have any criticism at all and can only think someone upset by the lack of right angles to the walls and floors could find any fault. We had a lovely week of touring and coming back to real comfort. 10/10!
-
"The cottage is like home from home."
Full of day to day essentials. Beautiful exterior and extremely comfortable and fresh interior, made our stay really enjoyable even though it rained every day!
-
"Could not fault the cottage inside at all."
Very clean and tidy. In the description it says there is an hot tub,this is correct but it fails to mention it's in the owners garden. You have to walk through the owners garden every time you want to go out in the car. You are joined on to the owner and there is a door inbetween the properties that the owner can enter what made us feel a little strange. The picture showing the front of the house isn't all your cottage,the left hand side of it is up to the third window downstairs. Well that's about it. Hope this helps with people booking so they arnt disappointed like us.
-
"Lovely place , with everything you could need & more , excellent base to visit the area with gorgeous surronding areas."
-
"Lovely cottage with really nice hosts."
Great for exploring the area. Beds not that comfy and smaller than we are used to but other than that the cottage was beautiful. Great open fire for cooler nights and hot tub was fab but did have a smell of dampness in the shed. Would recommend this cottage to anyone going to this area. You can't go wrong it has everything you need and for our first experience of using cottages I would definitely use Sykes.
-
"Rosey,Tim and Tasha were extremely helpful."
Very cosy let.
-
"Fantastic! Gorgeous cottage and immaculately clean!"
The hot tub was a great added extra, the cottage was also really well equipped with pots,pans, cutlery, dvds etc My two dogs also enjoyed the large enclosed garden and cuddling up in front of the fire :) Would definitely recommend
-
"Lovely quaint cottage with all sorts of cute features due to its age and history."
My little boy loved the hot tub and playing upstairs on the massive landing area! Very modern inside mixing the old and new with everything you could need! The owners live in the other side of the house but minimal noise and they left us to it, unless there was anything we wanted to ask! Great time and would definitely recommend
-
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Stallington Hall Farm."
It is beautifully situated amongst the countryside. We were fortunate to have a bit of snow whilst we were there which made it look more magical. It was just what we needed a quiet and relaxing holiday, with a touch of luxury by using the open fire and hot tub. There were 6 of us in total with 3 dogs. The owners are very helpful and very nice. They also have two friendly dogs, of which our beagle loved playing with. It’s very clean and extremely cosy. We highly recommend this place. Thank you Tim and Rosie.
-
"Warm welcome from the owners,then left alone for the rest of our stay."
Nice to know they are close in case of questions.
-
"Great hosts."
Cottage was spotlessly clean and we had all the information we needed. It was cosy and relaxing. The hot tub was a particular favourite! Would stay again.
-
"A great holiday home with a lovely cosy atmosphere."
We loved the big open fire and the owners had kindly provided wood and coal for a few nights. Although it is advertised as the Peak District you do need a car to reach the National Park. Note to dog owners - there is a public footpath across the fields next to the property.
-
"Had a really great week."
The cottage is lovely with everything that you need. The owners live next door and met us on arrival and showed us around which was nice and asked us how the week had gone on departure. Hot tub was very nice, but as it was inside a summer house could get a little warm and claustrophobic. Some good walks around the area but a car is needed. The Draycott Arms was dog friendly with nice food. Ashbourne is worth a visit too.
-
"The cottage was really lovely, clean and modern with everything you could want."
It was warm and comfy. The owners were very friendly and helpful and you could tell that the family are very proud of their lovely cottage. Dogs were welcome which was really great for us so thank you for that. We had a very relaxing rest very quiet at night so slept really well too. We will be going back I am sure.
-
"Would highly recommend this cottage."
The owners were so friendly and were there if needed. Very dog friendly cottage, large enclosed garden so no worries about our dog escaping. The hot tub was very relaxing after a long day walking. Would definitely return
-
"A wonderful place to stay for a relaxing holiday, the owners are very friendly and there if you need them as they live next door."
The garden was ideal for the three dogs, the hot tub was great for us and the house had everything we needed. Plenty of local pubs and restaurants although not within walking distance. A super base for exploring the Peaks and we shall definitely be returning for another stay.
-
"Just had a short break at this cottage, could not have asked for more."
The cottage is just amazing, good location with plenty to do if thats what you want, or just stay indoors and relax, not forgetting the hot tub..bonus. Would definitely stay in this cottage again, perfect.
-
"Absolutely fantastic property, close to peak district in a small little village."
Owners live next door, after meeting us and showing us around they left us to it but nice people to chat with when walking to your car. Tge house has three generous sized bedroom a nice kitchen and lounge bonus 2 toilets. There is a gated garden to the front ideal for you four legged friends There is a hottub which is really relaxing Ample parking for 3 cars which was how many we had In general a really nice well looked after property
-
"Apologies for such a late review!"
We stayed at Stallington Hall Farm in August 2018 and thoroughly enjoyed our week there. The owners were lovely and couldn't have been more helpful. The cottage is beautiful and so comfortable, the kitchen fantastic with everything you could need and the hot tub was well used! Our mad Cocker spaniel loved playing with their dog. The cottage is in a good location for exploring what the Peak District has to offer . My daughter has been asking when we can go back.
-
"This was a beautiful cottage and very welcoming, we had a lovely time with our two children and 3 dogs."
The facilities were well thought out with Xbox games, DVDs and board games. Our two teenagers were adequately entertained leaving us to relax. Added bonus was also the use of the hot tub.
-
"We had a great short break break in the Peak District, the weather and scenery were fantastic."
The cottage at Stallington Hall farm was beautiful and has been decorated to a very high standard. The whole cottage was very peaceful, comfortable and clean with a kitchen that was both spacious and very well equipped. Our hosts were very pleasant and easy going and the cottage affords you privacy with your own garden space to relax in but for the ultimate in relaxation, then the hot tub is unmissable. This is an excellent place from which to explore the Peak District as nothing is too far and there are a number of pubs nearby also worthy of a visit (Black Lake Inn and the Saracens Head Steak House to mention a just two).
-
"The cottage was absolutely perfect for us and our dogs."
Plenty of equipment in the cottage - pans, cutlery, plates etc. The log fire was lovely after a long walk in the snowy peaks. The beds were comfy and clean. Short drive to stunning scenery and shops. I can not recommend this cottage enough! Thank you
-
"We loved our new year break here."
The cottage was the perfect size for our group and our two dogs loved it. Lovely, friendly owners and we'd highly recommend staying here. The location is great if you're happy to take a drive out to places. Would've loved it if there were more local walks from the cottage but it wasn't a big deal, we used the walking books in the cottage and took a drive out to Oakamoor.
-
"The owners of this wonderful property could not have been more helpful and ensured we had everything we needed."
Lovely location, wonderful hosts - I hope we can make it back again some day..Thank you
-
"This property was very nice in the very hot weather as it stays cooler than modern houses."
We all liked the Wi-Fi availability which worked well. We all had a nice chilled holiday, even our usually mad dog. We have been going there for a few years and knowing the local places to eat and the location of the supermarkets etc, which are shown in the property notes at the accommodation for new visitors, does make life quite easy.
-
"Very dog friendly with owners living next door"
-
"Super location, perfect garden and property if you are bringing your dog!"
We really loved the property very quirky and comfortable.
-
"Owners were very welcoming."
Best cottage we have ever stayed in and we have stayed in quite a few. Gorgeous location . Very spacious especially with having 5 dogs .... be back very soon x

This cottage is disinfected in between guests using professional standard, mist-delivered disinfectant through a ULV Fogger.
A wonderful Grade II listed Tudor-built cottage set in the village of Blythe Bridge in the Staffordshire Moorlands.
With fascinating history throughout and providing spacious accommodation, this chocolate box Staffordshire cottage is just the place for families or friends to enjoy this diverse part of the countryside.
This picturesque cottage boasts original Tudor beams laced through the walls and ceilings, and low windows; a fascinating insight into the property's history.
The large kitchen with dining area provides a fantastic space to socialise and chat as one of your party whips up a tasty meal, while the sitting room with its huge open fire set into a large inglenook fireplace offers the perfect spot to relax and unwind after a long day of exploration.
Upstairs there is a large landing with seating overlooking the garden, three comfortable bedrooms and an additional toilet room.
Outside this Blythe Bridge cottage is a beautiful, enclosed walled garden with mature shrubs and various fruit trees.
There is lots of space to play safely and to enjoy a sunny evening meal.
The parking area at the property is discreet and not visible from the road and with an electric gated entrance this is a very secure area.
Blythe Bridge has a small selection of shops and pubs to enjoy, and a short drive will bring you to some very pretty Staffordshire villages including Cheadle, with its cobbled streets to explore, and Uttoxeter, if you fancy a day at the races.
A little further afield is Alton Towers, while the walking and cycling of the beautiful Staffordshire Moorlands stretches for miles, and beckons you to take in the scenery.
This is the perfect Staffordshire base to enjoy the area all year round!
