  • "Wow! What an amazing place to stay."

    Location is amazing helped by lots of snow the house is the best we have stayed in plenty of space and everything you need and the games room topped it off along with the hot tub in the snow. Jo and Giles are amazing and the homecooked meals we had were superb. Will be booking again for next year!

  • "This was our fourth visit to Pastures Barn and it was as excellent as always."

    We're already deciding what dates will be best for a visit next year! The accommodation is absolutely beautiful, and the hosts have thought of everything to make their guests' stay as wonderful as possible. We had an evening meal cooked by our host and it was absolutely delicious. We were able to visit the Wildlife Park as our lovely doggy was looked after for us, and he had as good a time as we did. Everything was spotlessly clean, lashings of hot water, comfortable beds and convivial evenings spent in the Party Shack or in the hot tub. I don't think a weekend could be better.

  • "We had a wonderful week at Pastures Barn."

    The house was clean and well equipped, especially for children and dog owners. Jo and Giles provided dog beds, towels and throws for the furniture and the artificial grass in the gated patio area meant the dogs paws were clean if they nipped out for a wee. Outside the gated patio was a larger section of grass, great for garden games, which were stored in the shed. The games room was a fantastic addition to the accommodation, we spent hours playing pool, darts, fussball, air hockey, table tennis and singing on the karaoke. The hot tub and sauna were lovely for relaxing in. Additional towels were also provided for the hot tub and sauna. The gates at the top and bottom of the stairs gave us reassurance that the dog couldn’t sneak up the stairs and the toddler couldn’t sneak down without our knowledge. This allowed us to sleep well in the comfortable beds. We also took advantage of the dog sitting service so we could have a family day out to Alton Towers. Jo sent me a couple of reassuring messages throughout the day and our 15-year-old Collie was very content in their home. In addition to Alton Towers there are some lovely places to visit. If you like a market day, head to Bakewell on a Monday. Monkey Forest and Trentham Shopping Village are about 40 mins away and worth a visit. Closer to the barn there is a large park, café and beautiful walks at Tittesworth Water.

  • "What a wonderful stay we had at Pastures Barn."

    The facilities are fantastic and the barn is beautifully decorated, with high quality furnishings. We all slept so well on super comfortable beds in the most peaceful surroundings. The evening sunsets were a delight as were the views. We made use of the sauna, hot tub and games room daily. We had the pleasure of meeting Jo and the giant fur babies which we loved. Our stay was so enjoyable we will be booking to return with more of our family in Pastures Barn and Parlour Barn next year and we cant wait. Every thought had been put into making our stay fantastic, Jo and Giles have created a very special place that is perfect for making memories whatever the weather.

    Amazing and thank you. It was a pleasure to bring our giant fur babies to meet you and we loved abit of nostalgia with the old BMW ! We see you are booking two barns for next year so thank you. Property Owner

  • "Genuinely cannot think of anything negative to say about this let."

    Three lovely bedrooms, gorgeous spacious kitchen and cosy, relaxed lounge. The games room is wonderful and could not have been better for my husband and teenaged son. Loved that there were safety gates top and bottom of stairs and 'no dogs upstairs' policy as it would have been impossible to keep our energetic black dog off the white bedding without them and I would have spent 3 days stressing over it! Great place for dog walks. Secure garden area with AstroTurf for dog so he could run in and out freely without having his paws wiped every time. Dog towels and throws provided for the 3 leather sofas (although we'd taken our own). All the little extra welcome gifts gave it a really special holiday feel and including the important supplies like bin bags, dishwasher tablets and kitchen rolls (although I'd taken them, not expecting everything to be so well stocked) was very thoughtful as it's a bit of a faff to drive into Leek everything you've forgotten something. Everything was spotless, especially considering it's a dog friendly let. Will definitely return.

    Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are very pleased you had a great stay and found everything you needed and more. We do try very hard to ensure your holiday home is to the highest standard to allow all your family a wonderful and restful stay. We hope you make it back to us and thank you for choosing ours.

    The barn is beautiful, with everything you could wish for during a rural retreat. We went to celebrate my husband's 70th birthday, and we couldn't have found anywhere better. We went with our family, and the children were thrilled with the Games Shack, and the dog loved the walks - he needed hosing down before going into the house - the doggy towels provided were extremely welcome. Jo, our host, made our evening meal on Saturday night - delicious, and the home made bread didn't make it to the following lunchtime. A lovely weekend for us all to remember. Surprisingly, the weather was good too!

    The holiday was booked as a surprise for our Mums 60th Birthday and we stayed here as a family. Pastures Barn really had the Wow factor. The barn is in a stunning location with amazing views (you can even see the sun set from the kitchen windows) and there are lovely walks right on your doorstep. The barn is beautifully clean and the décor throughout is beautiful and very tastefully designed. Every attention is given to detail. The facilities were absolutely outstanding, fully equipped kitchen, with every type of utensil you could need, a beautiful range cooker (which again was immaculate inside and out). The hot tub, sauna and steam room were a lovely added extra, we loved just sitting in the hot tub and admiring the views, (even robes were provided) and the games room was absolutely brilliant. We had lots of fun as a family in the games room, which offers table tennis, hockey table, table football, pool table, karaoke etc. Even in the games room the décor was carefully thought out, which didn’t go unmissed. Even photos were on the wall to show the stages of how the barns had all been converted, this is something we all appreciated and enjoyed looking at. The owners Jo & Giles contacted me the day before our stay and were very attentive and welcoming, if we needed anything we were able to contact them (of course we didn’t need anything! Everything a guest could need and more had already been provided.) But this was a lovely added touch from both of them. If you would like a bit of peace and tranquillity and luxury Pastures Barn is for you! A fantastic place to stay to get away from the world! We look forward to staying here again! Special thanks to Jo & Giles for helping to make our Mums 60th Birthday memorable!

    The games shack is brilliant and with the Covid19 concerns Jo the owner has it perfectly organised, you get the place to yourselves on alternate days with Parlour Barn, which suited us perfectly! and it's cleaned/sanitised in between. The accommodation has the "wow factor" the owners have thought of everything you might need even down to the dishwasher tablets! The welcome pack was much appreciated and we soon popped open the Prosecco! Bedrooms are immaculately decorated, the beds are so comfy and the showers are amazing. We watched the sunset a few nights from the hot tub, which is perfect after a days walking, then into the sauna, bliss!! Even dog bowls, towels, doggy bags, a cover for the sofa and dog biscuits were left for our dog Jess who enjoyed herself immensely. Thankyou to the owners for their wonderful hospitality and for this brilliant retreat! Hopefully we'll return! The Weston's

  • "What a fabulous place!"

    You will have the time of your life in staying here. Guaranteed. On the lead up to our holiday with having COVID19 concerns etc... our minds were quickly put at ease by Jo who explained how the games room would work when shared with the other family (the adjacent/attached letting property). No problem at all. In fact, it was lovely having the room to ourselves on the specific evenings meaning we could plan our holiday carefully to include everything we wanted to do. The house itself was beautiful. Breathtakingly so. Every attention to detail had been satisfied...even down to leaving dog biscuits in the food bowl! The bottle pf prosecco was a welcome touch and an apt way to start our adventure there. The kitchen was absolutely spotless as was every other room in the house. Seriously, it felt like we were the first people to stay here - ever! The house/garden was amazingly set within the pasture and enabled us to look at the wonderful views and watch a summer storm that came in on a couple of nights from the hot-tub! The fabulous sauna ended our evenings off a treat. Would love to return in the autumn/winter for another indulging experience at this amazing place. Thank you.

    It really did exceed expectations. The location is lovely, on the top of a hill, surrounded by hills (personally my ideal) We was close enough to local shops and cosy pubs. However, Pastures Barn was something else.. as we arrived it was spotless, gorgeous decoration and some really lovely personal touches. You can really tell there is no expense spared. The beds are comfy and it was spotless throughout. The facilities was brilliant. The games room has provided many memories, the karaoke, the piano, table tennis, pool, table top football, air hockey gave us endless hours of fun. Jo, the owner was just on the other end of the phone if we needed her which was good to know! We will definitely be returning. THANK YOU!

  • "One word ..."

    AMAZING!! We booked Pasture Barn for our family celebration for 4 nights surrounding Christmas Day and it was our home from home which far exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived the wow factor was overwhelming as we explored the property. The attention to detail and provision of extras that we didn’t even know we needed until we needed them was awesome. To name a few extras, the welcome hamper, fizz, extra disposable cooking trays to make sure Christmas cooking was covered, board games, dog treats, bowls, extra towels, to clean them down after long walks, which were stored in the shed along with numerous outdoor activity game sets. The kitchen was stunning, stocked with various extra items just in case we needed something, well laid out and easily handled volume of the Christmas day dinner preparation. The American fridge freezer was able to store all the food without the worry of nowhere to put anything once our Asda delivery arrived. The lounge was comfy with 3 sofas, modern log fire and a fantastic size for all the family. The bedrooms and bathrooms were cosy and modern. The games barn is something that was a real treat, the owners have really created something that the whole family can enjoy, the pictures on the site look great but once you see it in person it is a real treat, hours of family fun. All in all our family had the best Christmas, we didn’t want to leave! We will be booking again and can highly recommend this property. Huge thanks to Jo and family and we look forward to staying again. God bless!

  • "Our stay at Pastures Barn was fantastic from start to finish!"

    As two couples, one with a baby and the other with a dog, the barn was a perfect hideaway for the week. We’d been in touch with the owners prior to our stay with a few questions, which they promptly responded to. This took the guess work out of what we needed to bring and was extremely helpful (Thanks Jo!). On arrival, we were greeted with a bottle of prosecco and a lovely handmade hamper full of goodies. Jo had also messaged prior to our stay to ask if we’d like the Christmas decorations putting up, which we thought was a lovely added touch to our stay. The barn has been renovated to an extremely high standard giving it a lovely home from home feeling… not to mention, serious house envy!! The little extras like the tassimo machine, wine fridge, dressing gowns and towels for hot tub and the dogs were a nice touch too. The location of the barn is perfect for exploring the peak district and local areas in and around Staffordshire, or just to admire the views from the hot tub. We will definitely be returning!

    We came with our 9 year old son, our 2 good friends & a dog each between us. (Tilly & Daisy) The drive up alone is beautiful with the cottages set in a prime position on the edge of the peak district. The location was perfect for us with Dovedale, Bakewell & Buxton all within 30 min(ish) drive through the most breathtaking views and winding (and steep!) roads. My husband and I even took off to the roads for a run like no other we've ever experienced, very worth it! The cottage was absolutely stunning. The amount of thought and little extra touches really made our stay very special, from the welcome hamper, dog treats, dog blankets, hot tub towels & dressing gowns (and towels generally!) Coffee machines, washer, dryer & a wine fridge were all unexpected fab extras. The decor throughout was tasteful & very homely. The kitchen truly was the heart of the home and we found we spent alot of time there (a cup of coffee in the morning enjoying those views was a highlight of mine) The bedrooms were gorgeous and the beds were super comfy. The bathrooms were second to none. The games room was a hit and evenings would find the boys down there quicker than we could blink. What a great selection of games there too! Being heated and having a bathroom down there made the world of difference. I loved propping the bar up and listen to our music over the bluetooth karaoke machine too. The hot tub was a personal favourite, perfectly positioned, private, easy to use, spacious with incredible views! We all had a memorable, very comfortable & enjoyable stay at this cottage that lives and breathes a homely, welcoming feel & we most definitely will be back!

    This holiday was truly lovely, the place was truly spotless, had all the little things you need that you don't always find, like handwash, oil, tea and coffee stuff and a lovely little welcome hamper. They even had a spare toothbrush in the welcome pack just in-case anyone forgot one. Everything was thought of and clearly labelled and the house itself was done out to such a high standard we have come home with serious house envy! The games room was a fantastic facility, the hot tub and sauna were lush and the showers really powerful. There were different kinds of games secreted about for all occasions, including a full badminton set you could put up! the gardens were lovely and there was a fab bbq with everything it needed to use included, which prompted us to get the extended family round for the day. It was awesome to get all the grownups playing in the games room too, it's not often we get chance to let go and have fun like that. Our two dogs were also clearly thought of, from dog towels and spare poo bags to a jar of treats and they were very happy while we were there. The owners were great at responding to our queries and were very pleasant to deal with. It was genuinely the nicest and most relaxing holiday we have been on in such a long time. We definitely want to come back again. Thank you for a beautiful week Pastures Barn. We were not ready to go home!

    Every detail had been considered by the owners even down to hand wash in every bathroom and fry light for cooking. On arrival we were welcomed with a fantastic hamper of local produce, Prosecco and beer in the fridge. The views from the barn are truly spectacular especially whilst relaxing in the hot tub after spending the day walking across the hills. In all honesty we have never stayed in a property with so much attention to detail, it really was home from home. We took our two dogs with us who are very lively and enjoy to get muddy during their many walks, this was no problem at Pastures Barn as everything was available to ensure even the pooches were pampered. The owners also looked after the dogs during one of our days out and treated them like their own. On our return home we all had holiday blues and can’t wait to another stay here. I can’t recommend this property enough, you truly will not be disappointed.

  • "Our stay at Pastures Barn was a pleasure from start to finish, the only disappointment was we weren't staying longer!"

    The directions provided by the owners were clear and we researched the approach on Street View; a worthwhile activity to show just what a transformation the property has undergone. Leek is easy to access for shopping and the town centre worth exploring. The Peak National Park is a relatively short drive and every trip through that area is a sight seeing excursion. The conversion of the buildings is extremely well done and to a high standard, the exterior is sympathetic to the rural setting but the interior is contrastingly modern. It worked very well. The layout of the two cottages is well done to provide easy vehicle access and laid out to keep the respective gardens sufficiently private while using the much enjoyed Sauna and Hot Tub. The garden is also fenced in to keep our small but rather nosey dog contained and the owner had provided a few conveniences to help keep the property pet friendly whilst keeping the inevitable mess out doors.The owner had also left us a much appreciated welcome pack for the first evening. All in all we had a great trip, thanks
