  • "What a lovely place to stay."

    Perfect for walking your dog across amazing countryside. So many walks and a cosy please to come back to. Very well equipped and the fire brigade barn has a very peaceful vib.

  • "Didn’t live up to 5 star reviews."

    Having paid around £400 for a 2 night stay, we were disappointed and felt ripped off. The kitchen lacked a frying pan, the table was the wrong design for the space, the tap constantly dripped. All easy fixes but we felt the property isn’t being maintained to a high standard. The shower curtain didn’t fit around the bath and was filthy/mouldy. The bedding was thin and cheap. The outside of the property in need of painting.

    It’s such a gorgeous little place to stay, I didn’t want to leave!! The place was spotless on arrival and the bed is comfy. Tissington itself is beautiful, peaceful and relaxing. My only slight moan….. it would be helpful to have some information left regarding where the bins are etc and maybe some info about the area. I had a great stay and my pooch also loved it ;)

    We might have been the first in 2023 and the boiler did not work and the sink was blocked, but Chey, the owner, supplied electric heaters and got the boiler fixed the next day. He made a great effort to make us comfortable. I thoroughly recommend the property to anyone looking for a quiet repose and as a base to visit the Peaks.

    Loved the cottage, very cosy and the shower was a dream after a long walk. Brilliant walks, and the Tissington trail is only 200 yds away, as Is Tissington Hall. Very tranquil village and easy access to other places in the peaks. Will be back next year and hope to go around the hall next time

    We were told to park in Kindegarten car park but the Headmistress was not best pleased. An alternative would be appreciated. The setting, the ambiance and the comfort was second to none. We would definitely rebook.

    He didn't have to but he fixed it anyway. The cottage is beautiful, amazing views and good company while sitting outside. Manual for cooker etc found in kitchen drawer, easy find. When an owner goes to this extent its amazing so, we will see you next year as we are booking again soon. Thank you for an amazing holiday in this little piece of Peaks heaven.

  • "The property was good and overlooked the duck pond which was very picturesque."

    A few comments that may help future guests - - There was no welcome/information folder. This meant there were - - No instructions on using the oven/grill - No instructions for the TV - No information on household rubbish and recycling plus no rubbish collection day Unfortunately the propane gas cylinder had run out so no hot water on Thursday evening and Friday morning. However, the stay was very enjoyable and my comments are intended to make other guest's stays even more enjoyable.

  • "We loved our short stay at The fire brigade barn."

    The only reason it’s not a five star rating across the board is because of the head board on the bed. The design does not allow you to sit in bed and have a morning cuppa or read a book. It is the most uncomfortable design we have ever experienced. Otherwise, everything was perfect.

    Probably the nicest little cottage we have stayed in. Loved the duck pond in front, provided us with hours of entertainment. Fabulous village. Our only problem was the lack of outside space for our elderly little dog. But this did not spoil our holiday at all.

  • "This is a comfortable, clean and well equipped cottage in a pretty location."

    Tissington Hall is however a wedding venue and loud disco music was played on the Friday and Saturday evening until after 11.30 pm. While it might not bother some people, there was no information about start and finish times, and had we known we would not have stayed here. As numerous reviews have pointed out there is no information about what to do with rubbish or recycling (the very nice neighbours helped out) and a small welcome pack of milk etc would be very welcome given the distance to the nearest supermarket.

    No instructions for central heating. I found the controls and eventually got some nice heat and hot water. A few basic kitchen cleaning aids would be nice- sponge, dishcloth etc Kitchen utensils a bit short - e.g. fish slice Parking instructions would help - a bit awkward.

    The location is idyllic, looking over the duck pond in the lovely village of Tissington.

We would heartily recommend this property to prospective clients.

    A beautifully presented barn with everything you'll need for a holiday exploring the surrounding countryside. You can walk straight out the door and join the Tissignton Trail or out of the village and chose anyone of the many public footpaths up and over the hills. And that bath to enjoy after a long day's walking! We had snow, wind, rain.... but still an amazing outdoorsy holiday with a lovely property to relax and warm up in afterwards.

    Fire Brigade Barn was a lovely bolt hole and the owner could not have been more helpful. There was no dripping tap and noisy clock. The lounge area is very dark if you wish to read, but apart from that we could not fault it. A lovely sized property for two people.

    The tap in the kitchen drips constantly and can be heard throughout the cottage, rather irritating and a huge waste of water. The bedroom is well fitted out however perhaps have some firmer pillows and an extra blanket in the cupboard for chilly nights. The bathroom has a great bath, just what you need after a long walk or bike ride. Enjoyed our stay, a guest/ information book would have been useful as no information about how to leave the cottage, where to empty the bins etc. We enjoyed our stay, would recommend it. Tissington is a truly chocolate box village.

    The two days the sun was shining we would have a glass of wine or cup of tea sat on bench by duck pond. The Ducks where very entertaining and as It was during term time the area was very quiet and minimal traffic or parking issues. After peeping at other cottages in the village and exploring surrounding areas in the peak district we definatly felt Tissington was the prettiest village/town and the Barn was just perfect for 2 people and a 5month old cockapoo. Ashbourne being a short drive of around 6mins which is closest and most substantial town, we highly recommend the George and Dragon Pub for Food and a Drink (also dog friendly) there are also many other pubs and restaurants. If there was a pub in Tissington Village itself it would have perfected the stay for me. A must visit is Dovedale and the stepping stones which is a 10min drive, absolutely gorgeous walk! We got there early morning around 10am so we didn't see a soul (which is good for photo oppurtunitys) but by 11 and lunchtime it was becoming very busy! If we are to return to Peak District in the future, we will defiantly consider returning to Fire Brigade Barn.

Bradbourne 2.6 miles; Ashbourne 5 miles; Chatsworth House 17.6 miles

Tissington is a beautiful little village in the Peak District National Park. Famous for its well dressings, Tissington invites you to come along and soak up the atmosphere of this well-managed estate village with its duck pond, quaint cottages, church, tea rooms and impressive old hall. It's a very pretty village and a perfect place from which to enjoy the many sights of the Peak District. A fabulous area for outdoor pursuits, the Tissington Trail cycle path is located close by, little over a mile to the east of the village. Dovedale, one of England's photographed beauty spots with its iconic stepping stones, is close by and must not be missed! There are many varied walks, climbing opportunities and cycle routes in the area, and this is also an ideal base for days out at Alton Towers, impressive Chatsworth House, or enjoying the watersports at Carsington Water. The nearby market town of Ashbourne, once a fashionable social centre of the 18th century, boasts an eccentric street plan, with charming cobbled alleyways littered with old market stalls and welcoming coaching inns. Many fine Georgian buildings remain, hosting a good selection of restaurants, wine bars and interesting antique shops.
