The Barn At Hill House Reviews

Our family had a wonderful week's stay at the Barn. Everything was as described. So well supplied with china and utensils. Great welcome basket, too. The beds are comfortable and bedding clean and spotless. Showers are easily accessible. The views over the valley were so beautiful that we couldn't stop looking. The Owl made several appearances, plus a pheasant. Blue tits were nesting and feeding their young, who eventually flew the nest. Thank you owners for making my 75th birthday one to remember and for all those extra touches that greeted us upon arrival.

Lovely property with excellent facilities and views. The owners were onsite and very helpful. Remote location but ideally situated for Buxton and Leek.

Carmel

The Barn at Hill House was the best accommodation we have stayed at. 5 6 adults & one dog It was perfect for my daughter in law who has mobility issues as it was all on one floor.small step at front door The house was very well equipped & the beds were so comfortable with beautiful bed linen. Nellie the dog was in dog heaven having been left treats by Lynne & Don. She loved the safe enclosed paddock. The pen was so helpful to us as we could block Nellie out of the bedroomskitchen as required. We were left a very generous welcome box which had the most wonderful home made brownies

Louise

Fantastic house in a great setting! Really well equipped house, clean and a great size for our group 3 adults, 4 kids. The garden area was great for kids and the views were picturesque! I would highly recommend.

Just returned from another visit to the Barn. We keep going back because it is so enjoyable. As always it was scrupulously clean and well equipped. The view over the valley is breathtaking and it is so peaceful with no traffic. The only sounds are from the wildlife including the owl. On this occasion we experienced one day of poor weather with horizontal sleet. Despite this we were snug inside. The insulation is so good we didn't need the fire and there is lots to do with a healthy supply of books and DVDs. On other days there was lots to do outside with a safe paddock for the dogs to enjoy and a range of walks either on the flat short drive away or up and down the hills. Its equipment allows you to prepare substantial meals on site or there is a range of places to eat within a few minutes drive.

Michael

We had a wonderful Xmas at the Barn. The house was decorated with Xmas decorations, lights and a tree which added to the special feeling. We arrived to find many provisions and a lovely hamper and bottle of wine. The Barn is a special property with the best view you could imagine. The facilities are top class and the quality of furnishings are of a high standard. I would highly recommend a stay here to everyone.

The accommodation was superb. The owners had thought of everything regarding equipment in the kitchen. Bedding etc was of good quality. Views were fantastic. Lovely quiet location. Would definitely return and recommend to friends.

Christine

The Barn at Hill House is one of the best holiday homes that we have stayed in. Definitely first class. The owners were very welcoming and friendly and left us a great welcome pack. The house is very spacious and comfortable a real home from home with everything you could want. We would highly recommend it as a holiday destination.

I am almost reluctant to give the Barn a good review lest it become overbooked but that would be selfish. We have stayed there on multiple occasions and each time have enjoyed a wonderful restful week. Set in the most peaceful surroundings there are beautiful views and lots of opportunity for walks to suit all levels of energy. The property itself is spacious, always clean and well supplied so if your aim is to prepare meals together with family or friends this is easily achieved. We have always been made to feel most welcome by the hosts an ideal holiday stay.

We had such a wonderful stay at the Barn. It is so well equipped and we had three generations of the family there who all fell in love with it. My mum has bad mobility so all being on one level was just perfect. I could have sat with a cuppa and looked out over the view for hours! In fact we did! The enclosed field for our two cocker spaniels was just ideal also very secure and they just loved it!

Beautiful place to stay. And lovely hosts.

Really lovely home, fantastic views and the welcome basket throughly enjoyed.

Jacqueline

We always try to choose a property we would aspire to live in, and this cottage certainly met that brief. The views were terrific and Molly the dog loved the exercise area. Unfortunately she is a springer, and still managed to jump the flower planters, but it is a very quiet lane. The welcome was warm, the house spotless and well equipped. My mother has severe arthritis and struggled with the front doorstep, but overnight a very professional half step was installed, as if by magic. We had a great time, and would definitely come back

We had a great holiday, The Barn was spotless, spacious and well maintained. We cant fault it in any way, they had thought of everything, even down to The welcome pack which included home made brownie'sdelicious. Thank you to the owners who very welcoming.

The property was very well equipped, comfortable and clean with a spectacular view. The welcome pack was much appreciated and there was a lot of information on where to go, what to do, maps, walks, etc. The owners were lovely, very friendly and helpful. The 6 of us had a great week and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Barn.

Our second stay at the Barn for a family get together, this time with our new granddaughter 8 adults baby. Everything has been thought of and the open plan living works really well for a get together. Particularly appreciated the email letting us know what would be provided. The welcome pack was amazing, something I remembered from last time. Beautifully clean, comfortable and warm, a lovely place to come back to after a days walking. View from the window beautiful. Lots of information given as to places to visit and local walks. I would highly recommend.

Sheelagh

We had a great stay in this beautiful cottage with stunning views in all directions. The interior, furnishings and beds are all first class, and not a speck of dust anywhere on our arrival. Plenty of things to see and do in the area, and little market towns to visit. The welcome pack was much appreciated, especially the homemade Brownies. Thank you.

Trevor

The perfect cottage for a quiet peaceful holiday, with wonderful views across the dale. Also well placed for visiting anywhere in the Peaks.

Claire

Lovely cottage in a great location. Warm welcome with generous welcome pack which was a nice touch. Space worked well for multi generational stay and 2 dogs. Great outside space and the most wonderful views.

Pauline

Very well equipped and spacious thought out accommodation. Received a lovely welcome from the owners. Plus a great welcome pack. Everything from indoor to outdoor games provided. Beautiful scenery and plenty of hills. Lots of areas to explore. Need strong legs and lungs to tackle some of the hills

We were very impressed with the thoughtfulness of the groceries provided. The family were friendly but non intrusive and allowed us to enjoy our stay in this beautiful accommodation

Tracey

This is an exceptional holiday property. Not only did it have the essentials like comfortable beds, plenty of comfortable seating in the lounge, a large enough dining table, well equipped kitchen, appliances all working etc, but the little things that are so often overlooked were also thought of. The welcome pack was great especially the brownies! but also we received details a couple of weeks before of all the extras that were supplied so we didn't need to bring them. And the views were incredible, we never tired of looking out the window. It was lovely to be in the countryside without being too far from places to visit, and despite unseasonal July weather we found plenty to do. Cannot recommend highly enough.

A really lovely place to stay. Weve been before and definitely hope to return. Excellent on all fronts and just perfect for an adult family who enjoy walking

Heather

A superb find for our family holiday. Excellent accommodation in all ways outstanding views from inside and out. Very well equipped for all age ranges . Very clean and comfortable. Would easily recommend this property to anyone who wants a holiday on top of the world !

Patricia

The Barn is perfect. Everything is of a very high standard. Possibly the best place we have stayed in.

Denise

Fantastic property all you could want. Wonderful location, superb views, excellent welcome pack. Our second visit just as wonderful as the first . PERFECT in every way

Allison

This was our second stay at this cottage and I would say it was even better the second time as we knew what to expect. My Brother and his partner and their dog also stayed for the first few days. They were also amazed about the stunning setting and the style and comfort of the cottage. Our dog Sammi Spaniel she was also very excited to be back! Just can not fault this cottage for what it offers. A very special time was had by all. Thank you again for allowing us to spend some time in such an amazing special cottage.

An oasis of calm and beauty in a hectic world. So wonderfully quiet and peaceful. There is lots to do only a short drive away but if you just want to be quiet then this is the ideal spot. Local walks give spectacular views. Very comfortable well equipped accommodation. Have already booked to go back!

Andrea

We have a fantastic week at the cottage. The owners left us a lovely welcome pack and everything was clean and as expected. Kitchen well stocked, beds comfy and we loved the air source heat pump good research into whether we get one ourselves one day!. Ample supply of books for all ages, my 7 year old loved the horrible histories ones! and games and great suggestions on local places to go. The location is fab that view! Weather wasn't great for our stay but we still enjoyed walks around the valley and around the area. We even had some glimpses of the resident barn owl and rabbits just fabulous. Thank you!

Christine

Fantastic barn and holiday place to stay with a bunch of friends. The open plan kitchendinerlounge was perfect. Warm, clean and had everything you needed. Lynne left some wonderful treats for arrival too which was lovely.

Philip

Amazing cottage in a fantastic location. The cottage was exactly as described, with stunning views. The additional welcome basket was amazing and went above the normal welcome packs at holiday cottages. Will definitely be re booking this cottage again.

Excellent accommodation. Very well appointed and with a terrific view. Comfortable beds and facilities.

Jennifer

A perfect location to unwind and get closer to nature. Property is on the doorstep to some lovely walking paths and we were delighted to see the resident owl. The Barn is very clean throughout and plenty of room for the family. The personal touches from the owners are very thoughtful, and we really enjoyed our stay.

Muriel

Stunning view from the very top of a spectacular spot on the edge of the peaks. Amazing sunrises and glimpses of the resident Barn Owl. An excellent location for a small family reunion this New Years. The barn is immaculate, cosy and well equipped for families and the paddock a great space for the dog. We took a superb day out to Chatsworth during our stay and climbed Mam Tor in the sunshine and wind!! on New Years Day. Some wonderful memories made. We look forward to coming back one day soon to see a different drier season and explore more of the hundreds of walks that are close by. Thank you Lynne and Don for your hospitality and the delicious chocolate brownies!!

Oliver

A fabulous place in a beautiful position. The Christmas decorations made such a huge difference and the extra details for the kids helped to make our Christmas. Were extremely grateful, thank you for a lovely stay.

Kathryn

We had a fabulous stay at The Barn at Hill House farm. The cottage was just as described and was very warm, welcoming and comfortable after our walks in the Peak District with our pooch. The enclosed paddock was a great feature of the cottage and the perfect safe space to let our dog run around and for us to watch the ever changing weather fronts roll in over the hills. The hamper was a lovely touch and Lynne and Don were very welcoming.

Duncan

Amazing barn conversion, all on one floor and to a high spec. Location is perfect lots of opportunities to get out and about to Leek, Ashbourne and up north into the wider Peak District Park. We walked out to Butterton and back which takes around 1hr 15min. This walk direct from the barn takes you across fields and you get some great views back towards elk stones. In Buttetton wed highly recommend the Black Lion pub along with the Lazy Trout 10min drive and a walk around Tittesworth Reservoir.

Angela

We had a wonderful stay at Hill Barn. Our welcome was warm and the goodies left for us were amazingly generous. Everything you could wish for is waiting for you, stunning scenery from the window, a beautiful home and such a well equipped kitchen. There is also an enclosed area for dogs to play safely. We would highly recommend and will be back.
