Barnfields Holiday Cottage

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage.

The location was stunning, and the cottage itself was equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The listing was completely accurate and exactly as we expected, which made settling in very easy. We were also greeted with fresh eggs and bread on arrival, which was such a lovely touch and very much appreciated. The only minor issue we found was that the TV remote could do with replacing, as some of the buttons were sticking. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your lovely cottage. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone considering booking and would happily stay again ourselves.

Lovely place, well looked after.

Nice and spacious downstairs. Quire a few books and some games to play.

nice cottage but bedroom ceilings are very low

Stayed here for the last week in August - the accommodation was clean, very well equipped.

Comfortable beds and sofas. We were able to log onto our accounts for Netflix, BBC iplayer and other apps for TV viewing in the evening (FYI to owners: need a new remote control for TV, pressing the buttons was a bit tedious as the remote was well used and buttons didn't always respond - not a big issue but could be on its way out). The cooker is amazing as we cooked in a couple of evenings. Ideally placed to visit some of the Potteries (especially Middleport and Wedgewood). Also ideally placed to visit Buxton and Bakewell and spending time on the Dales. Lovely and quiet - we were able to sit out on the small patio and enjoy the evening sunset.

Lovley quiet place, easy to find, supermarkets etc only 10 mins away, welcome hamper was great, great for countryside, sotoke on trent,alton towers.

..we will be back soon.

We loved our stay here.

The owners had thought of everything for our comfort and use. Tastefully decorated and furnished. It was private and near a farm, very secure. Pity about the weather it was hot the week before our stay, but cold the week we stayed, hot again now we’re home. But it was dry and we did everything we wanted to. We cannot control our British weather!!

Just Stunning, everything was absolutely perfect.

We are just back from the beautiful Barnsfield cottage .

We loved everything about it and would highly recommend. Everything was spotless and the surroundings are beautiful , our kids loved it . The owners left milk , bread and eggs for our arrival which is such a lovely touch . We will definitely be back again .

The bathroom was quite dirty and I cleaned this before using, the plug in shower does not drain and so you end up standing in water, terrible for condensation as does not have proper ventilation, fridge not clean, food left in the oven, toaster does not hold a slice of bread (toaster too small), main plates are a dessert plate and so don’t hold a dinner.

Towels washed in very strong detergent so had to wash the before using. No where to dry clothes (terrible if a walker as we were), clothes horse but cottage was not warm. Heat did not come on as noted in book. The barn is in a stunning location and so peaceful.

Had a wonderful 3 night stay at the cottage, it's situated surrounded by fields so very private and blissfully quiet.

The cottage is beautifully appointed, immaculately clean and had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend to others and will be back again next time we are in the area.

Really loved this place.

Would deffo go back. Very clean and great scenery

Lovely, well equipped cottage, in a very pretty location.

The barn was great plenty of room only wish weather was better one dry day but still whent out the only thing could have 2nice cerial bowls for breakfast place to go wedge wood museum at stoke on Trent thank you owners lovely barn

We've had an relaxing time while staying here, celebrated my wife's and cousin's birthdays.

It was a well presented, clean cottage and in ideal area to enable us to visit the surrounding National Trust properties etc. We would certainly stay again and would recommend to anyone. Many Thanks

A wonderful cottage, spacious, comfortable, beautiful inside and out!

We had a great time visiting new attractions and exploring the Peak District! Thank you for the little necessities bread, milk & eggs, very much appreciated! We had a wonderful family holiday and would definitely recommend this cottage as we would love to visit again!

We had a lovely comfortable stay at Barnfields, and will hopefully return, we thought it strange we would have like to have met the owners , we enjoyed seeing and exploring the Peak District, cheddleton flint mill was very interesting lived in cheddleton for 24 years until I moved away and never visited, so many interesting places and we had the nice weather which made it better

Quirky cottage, very quiet , chairs outside to sit and enjoy the fresh air.

Bread, milk and eggs provided to start you off, which was a nice treat. Some saucepans need replacing as the non stick coatings almost disappeared . A small non stick milk pan would have been nice too.

Excellent location for exploring the area , lots to do , we really enjoyed our stay ,

An excellent place to stay.

Lovely barn conversion, peaceful, great countryside. Would highly recommend !

Lovely property, exceptionally clean in beautiful surroundings

We enjoyed everything about our stay at the cottage and all the days out.

it was lovely and will look to book again . Thankyou for the hamper that was left for us . Very highly recommended place to stay didnt want to leave after the week .

We had a good week walking although the local paths and stiles weren't up to much.

The very, very low ceilings made the attic bedrooms unbearably uncomfortable in the hot weather. Unfortunately for us the builders where working on the main house all week...annoying...not quite the peaceful holiday expected. The owner's apologised to us with a bottle of wine...but we do like quiet before we go out walking in a morning and after we get back...

A beautiful cottage on a busy working farm.

The property was beautiful and clean. Would highly recommend people to stay at this place.

The views were lovely, quite location, beds comfy pillows not so comfy some of the mugs and plates were chipped and frying pans have seen better days.

The ceilings in the bedrooms were too low for us, and the toilet downstairs too far away from one of the bedrooms if needed in the night.

Best holiday cottage I have ever stayed at.

Very clean,very comfortable and so quiet.

Wonderful cottage in a peaceful location.

Well placed for the Peaks and Potteries. We had an amazing week out with family and friends but always glad to return to the cottage

A very comfortable cottage with everything we needed.

We loved this property.

The only thing we found was that it was very easy to hear any noise in the kitchen from the bedroom. Probably not a problem for most people, but we had an autistic member of our party and he wakes early and likes to whoop! Hosts were great - really friendly, helpful and responsive, but not at all intrusive.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your cottage.

It was clean, modern and had everything we needed to cater for ourselves. The kids loves the outdoor space and talking to your chickens on our walks. We were grateful for the little extra touches such as the fresh bread, eggs and milk and being able to access Netflix without hassle for the kids. In terms of location it was ideally suited for our day trip to Alton Towers. We are all ready planning our next trip and will not hesitate to return to your accommodation. We wanted to leave a review in the guest book but it was already full with lovely comments. Thank you again and we'll hopefully be back soon.

We had a lost at at the Barnsfield cottage, the owner were very helpful and appreciated them taking time to explain and experience the Lambing in progress on the farm.

We hope to revisit Barnsfirld cottage in the near future and would definitely recommend staying here.

We enjoyed our stay at Barnfields cottage which had good facilities & was well located for local activities.

A stunning spacious barn conversion in a wonderful location.

The rooms are furnished beautifully and I couldn't recommend it highly enough. Perfect base for visiting nearby Alton Towers and the quite spectacular scenery of the peak district.

Very peaceful location.

Spotless property.

A comfortable barn in a quiet location.

Will definitely be staying again as we have family near by.

We had an excellent little break at Barnfields & I'd happily recommend it to my friends.

Clean, neat & comfortable, are always a great start but the building also has charm & a little quirkiness. A huge, well equipped kitchen, a cozy lounge, a great shower & comfortable beds, everything we needed. The welcome pack of bread, milk & eggs was a lovely gesture, thank you. We had no issue with country smells & for the most part our stay was very peaceful. Normal, daytime noises, were never loud & as holidays are for exploring new places it really wouldn't have worried us what the neighbours did. The nearby market town of Leek was perfect for shopping as was Trentham shopping village (so much better than Stoke on Trent itself). The monkey gardens, also in Trentham, are small but brilliant, I'd urge everyone to visit.

We received a warm welcome from the owners on the day of our arrival and fresh bread, milk and eggs.

We found the property to be very comfortable, we enjoyed our stay.

What a brilliant little holiday.

Lovely accommodation and surroundings Our kids loved all the animals Thank you so much!

Amazing cottage with every home comfort needed.

Great location for exploring the local area. We had a fantastic week away.

Really enjoyed the layout of the barn and the flowers outside the front door.

The door to serperate the living from dining room meant we felt cosy in the living room in the evenings

Cottage was brilliant.

Arrived to a very clean cottage, with wee welcome essentials. Hosts thought of us when was hot and stuffy and delivered some fans for use at night. Cottage is a fantastic central point for many a good family day out. It's also very remote so you can enjoy the peace and quiet of county living. Would definitely book again if down near Alton.

This is a pleasant barn conversion, well equipped with everything you would need for a home away from home experience.

The quaint bedrooms with sloping ceilings were a challenge, but we eventually learned to negotiate them :O) However, this was not the idyllic escape we had envisioned after reading the previous reviews. We live next to a farm and understand necessary jobs must be performed, but the three consecutive days of muck spreading put a dampener on our visit. We could not open the doors and windows because of the smell, which in turn made the bedrooms extremely hot (with the radiators turned off) during the lovely weather we were having. So, sadly, we cut our stay short.

Absolutely lovely place to stay.

..peaceful retreat with plenty space...within easy reach of the lovely Cheadle (shop local) and lots of other places..would definitely recommend

Just home from a wonderful week away here.

Farmhouse has everything you need and is a home away from home! Couldn't give anything less than 5 stars. A welcome pack of eggs, milk, bread was gratefully welcome. Kettle went straight on for a cup of tea after our drive and arrival! Furnished to a very high standard, nice outdoor patio area that was south facing. Large driveway and grassy area too. The farmhouse is located at the end of the lane and gives you highest level of privacy and peace. Our children loved the horses, sheep and chickens nearby and enjoyed feeding the horses apples in particular. Located in such a peaceful, beautiful setting we would recommend to anyone of any age group. We did Alton Towers a few days, only a 10 minute drive away. Perfect coming back, putting the fire on and settling down for a cosy evening. A walk through the village takes you to a really good, new park for children too. We've had such a lovely holiday away and look forward to coming back very soon... Hopefully try it in the summer time!

Ed and Lianne looked after us very well and were very kind , helpful and generous.

Anything we needed help with was sorted promptly. We loved our stay there and normally try different areas of the country but we will go back again. It is to be highly recommended if you like peace and quiet and the countryside with its wildlife.

A beautiful, peaceful location looking on to green fields with sheep grazing.

We really appreciated the welcome pack of speciality eggs that we all enjoyed and having a fresh loaf of bread. Having the games available was great for the evening. Lots of walking from our doorstep to the woods. Easy access to shops, the Roaches, a local climbing spot. We even travelled to spend a day in Wales, 2 hours away. The owners answered any queries we had promptly. We would visit again as wanted to visit Alton Towers but couldn’t fit it in.

Great location, owners seem very nice.

Attention to detail could be looked at, couple of light bulbs out, beds not king sized as expected however overall enjoyed the cottage and the location.

The cottage was in a beautiful location - the location was in the midst of things with supermarkets near by but the cottage itself was set up a small lane and was part of the farm.

It was incredibly quiet except for a neighbouring little owl. The cottage was clean, well kept and fully equipped. The owners were absolutely lovely. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and are planning to stay again.

Throughly enjoyed the home comforts the holiday cottage provided.

Particularly great for us as it was incredibly baby friendly. Unfortunately our twins were unwell and all adventurous plans were aborted, however the farm animals on the doorstep was a bonus of enjoyment for us and the babies. Will definitely love to return soon. The owners and everyone around were incredibly helpful. Thank you Ed and Lianne!

A beautiful let in a beautiful area.

The owners went an extra mile with the quality of the let and I would say my wife and I had a grand holiday that way exceeded expectations. We will not be forgetting this one!

Thank you so much.

Not only was the Barn beautiful the hosts were amazing too. We cannot thank you enough. We got ready here for my wedding and had the most amazing time. The Barn is stunning.

A really well equipped house, extremely clean with excellent outdoor space ideal for children.

I was very pleased with the ease of booking and communication by Sykes Cottages.

The cottage itself was lovely and spacious where my boys and I felt very at home. My extended family (from Newcastle and Bracknell) visited us there and it was a comfy, cosy place for us all to meet up and spend time together. I'd definnately recommend both Sykes Cottages and the place we stayed.

Great county and a convenient Base to explore the area!

Lovely location, easy to find.

Although you go through a housing estate to get to it, you felt like you were in a different place. So quiet and tranquil.

Fantastic location and excellent place to stay, Lianne & Ed were extremely helpful and their 'welcome pack' was very much appreciated!

Beautiful cottage with great views and it's in a good location.

Very close to alton towers which was very good as we went for two days.

The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable and positioned up a lane so was very quiet and peaceful.

Welcome basket from the owners. Lovely area to explore. Would definitely go back

We had a good time at the cottage.

Nice atmosphere, Spacious Clean cottage.

Perfect escape to the country!

Beautiful cottage finished to a very high standard, the little messages were a lovely touch, very personal. Had all facilities for a family get away. Celebrated Father's Day and our daughter's 13th birthday. We visited Stoke city for a spot of shopping and visited Emma Bridgewater for a few treats!!! Only 15 mins from Alton towers which was the main reason we chose this cottage. Would recommend and visit again. Many thanks Ed & Lianne

Fabulous break in this beautifu barn converted cottage, very clean, well presented and in a quiet area.

The owners are on hand to help in anyway possible and even allowed us to meet a new born lamb on the farm. Fantastic holiday, we will return.

What a beautiful, cosy country cottage.

Well appointed and decorated, the cottage is deceptively spacious. It has a big kitchen diner, nice outside space and pleasant walks right on the doorstep. The cottage is well positioned to get to local attractions. The owners were great and very accommodating. We will be booking again.
