• "We would rate this property as “outstanding”."

  The Stables feels like a genuine home from home, even down to the selection of books and magazines. Crockery, glass ware, cutlery all exceeded expectations in terms of quality and meeting our every need. I would add that the owners, who live on site, were exceptionally friendly and helpful. My wife had recently undergone surgery, and nothing was too much trouble to make sure she was comfortable. A big “thank you” to them. If you are looking for a cosy, exceptionally well equipped country cottage, in a rural setting but close to civilisation, The Stables at Badgers Clough Farm should be on your list.

• "Rita Ann and Bill superb hosts but leave you to get on with your stay."

  A high standard of furnishings and finish and a magnificent bed. What's not to like? The fabulous Peak District just out of the door and a clutch of National Trust properties to visit within easy reach. A great TV in sitting area/kitchen and in the bedroom and a large collection of books for a rainy day. One of those places where saying you will visit again will be turned into a booking.

  Dear Martin and Jenny, thank you so much for such lovely feedback. It was an absolute pleasure to host you and we are so pleased that you enjoyed The Stables accommodation and the area so much. Hope to see you again and shall very much look forward to doing so. Property Owner

• "The cottage on the farm is just simply gorgeous."

  It has been wonderfully kitted out with top of the range kitchen/ lounge/ bedroom & wash room furniture and fittings. The views all around the cottage are something that is so lovely to wake up to see. We met the owners Bill and Rita who were a lovely couple and telling us all about the area and the history of this old building that had been stables in the past. Definitely coming back to stay and meet up with Rita and Bill again.

  Thank you Rob and Carmel, As much as it was a pleasure to host you, it was an equal pleasure to meet you both too.Thank you so much for your kind review of The Stables. We look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

• "We spent 7 nights, and throughly enjoyed the cottage."

  The owners were very welcoming and very helpful. It’s a beautiful cottage, which has a well equipped kitchen, walk in shower in the bathroom, a double bed which can be split into two single beds, and a small office space, in the passageway from kitchen/lounge to bedroom and bathroom. The lounge area has a log burner, and it is cosy, and gets very warm. We went to Marple, we booked a taxi, there and back, cost less £25. We would very highly recommend this beautiful cottage, we plan on going back.

  Thank you so much for your amazing review. We are so happy that you had such an enjoyable stay at The Stables. Looking forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

• "Our stay at The Stables was amazing."

  The accommodation was of a very high standard, all on ground level providing plenty of space for two people. The superking sized bed was so comfortable giving a wonderful night’s sleep. The bathroom was very modern with a lovely shower and plenty of space to store toiletries. The office space was exceptional if you needed to work from there. The lounge/diner was very comfortable with plush leather chair and sofa and a lovely modern kitchen with everything you could need to give that home from home feeling. Two smart tv’s, one in the lounge/diner and one in the bedroom was also a great advantage. We couldn’t have wished for nicer hosts who were both lovely, welcoming and helpful. The Stables was an ideal base to explore the High Peaks and Derbyshire Dales, we had a fabulous week doing this and hope to return to carry on. We cannot recommend this place more highly

  Thank you so much for your amazing review of your stay at The Stables. It was a pleasure to meet you and we look forward to welcoming back when that time comes. Property Owner

• "I recently stayed at this rural apartment and was greeted by the warm hospitality of the hosts."

  The unique bar-like ambiance set in a countryside backdrop is certainly memorable. However, there are certain aspects that future guests should be aware of: Dampness: The property has a noticeable dampness, especially in the bedroom. This damp atmosphere also led to an uninviting odor. Despite the presence of a dehumidifier, and scented perfumes, the issue persists. Road Noise: The property is close to a busy road. Particularly during peak hours, starting around 5:30 a.m., the noise can be quite pronounced. It's worth noting that opening windows to alleviate indoor stuffiness tends to amplify this noise. Lighting and Temperature: External lights remain active throughout the night. While the owners kindly offered an eye mask, some might find the constant lighting disruptive to sleep. Moreover, the absence of a fan combined with the need to keep windows closed because of the noise means warmer nights can be uncomfortable. Additional Noise: There's a refrigerator that, while practical, operates with a noticeable volume during the night, this can be reduced by closing two internal doors which doesn't assist with airflow. Seating for Dining: The available seating for dining was limited to 3 x tall bar stools, which, while fitting for a bar setting, wasn't the most comfortable for regular meals or sitting with company. In summary, while the apartment offers a unique experience and warm hosts, it may not be the ideal choice for light sleepers or those sensitive to environmental factors. I chose to depart two days earlier due to these conditions. Future guests should consider these points to ensure their stay aligns with their comfort and needs.
