The Gatehouse

We enjoyed a nice midweek break at the Gatehouse.

The cottage is really well equipped and plenty of comforts. The garden is large and great for the kids with plenty of games. The hot hub is nice. Communication from the owners was also good.

Well presented on arrival.

We had a very relaxing long weekend. The house has everything that you might need and plenty of space for everyone to gather. The two grandsons had lots of fun playing with all the games, both indoors and outdoors. I would suggest a map to help locate the property, as it was difficult to find, and one of the roads is a narrow lane with lots of potholes.

What a beautiful house.

Absolutely everything you could possibly want or need. Even down to the little torches strategically placed around the house which were a godsend when we had a very unexpected power outage. The house felt like a home not just a holiday let. Would

The best property we have stayed at yet.

The house, garden and grounds surrounding it were beautiful. The house was so clean, really comfortable beds, lots of seating in the living area and it had practically everything you could think of and more. There wasn't one thing I needed but couldnt find, just so well equipped. The garden was a lovely size and so peaceful and private. Hidden by beautiful trees with the birds singing all day long. The hot tub was a real treat. Lots of lovely things to do in the area and both the pub down the road and the chinese (which were recommended) were lovely. We had an issue on the day we were leaving (a personal issue, nothing to do with the house or the owner) and the owner was so very understanding and kind, which meant a lot. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed!

Absolutely wonderful stay with our extended family.

All the games and outdoor equipment were very welcome and we loved the hot tub and comfy beds. In a great location with walks on the doorstep, we'd love to come back one day!

We booked the gatehouse to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary.

Our kids , grandkids & dog joined us for the weekend . The house is huge and with 7 of us plus 2 dogs it was very roomy with plenty of space . From the hot tub , table tennis , games room and a cupboard full of games we were all entertained. The kitchen was well thought out with every utensil you could think of provided . Big enclosed garden and very private ..beautiful bedrooms .. we would highly recommend The Gatehouse and hopefully we shall return in the future . Thank you Jennie

The Gatehouse is an absolutely fantastic place, we had a great weekend there to celebrate my son’s 21st Birthday.

The house is beautiful and very well thought out, thanks must go to Jennie for all her information supplied & answering questions about our stay. The hot tub was amazing, the games room & karaoke machine were an added bonus, also the table tennis & badminton was a big hit to burn off some energy! The downstairs bedroom was brilliant for older guests so they didn’t have to climb many steps, & the added toilet facilities on the ground floor was great too! All in all a fabulous experience, would highly recommend for a multigenerational group.

Fantastic stay!

The property was very big, clean and even nicer than the photos. Very high quality throughout. The gatehouse felt very big and open, and having a huge TV and lots of games was great for relaxing in the evenings. The kitchen and amenities were excellent, providing virtually everything we needed for our stay. The hot tub was a great addition and we really enjoyed the outdoor space on sunny days. The village itself is lovely with lots of nearby walks and trails, making it a perfect base. Would highly recommend!

Well equipped cottage with lots to do and lots of walks around .

The owner (Jennie) was really helpful and quick to answer any queries.

Beautiful house and grounds, the photos do not do the property justice.

Very spacious we stayed 6 adults, 2 children, a baby and a dog we had more than enough room. The house had everything you could want and more lots of games to play for indoor and out lovely extra touch. We walked to the nearby pub on the first evening they don’t allow dogs inside but have a heated area outside which was lovely to sit and enjoy a drink in. The owner was very responsive was available immediately to answer my one concern. We stayed to celebrate my husband’s 60th birthday he loved the house so much he didn’t want to leave. We would definitely recommend and will rebook if ever in the area again.

We absolutely loved this place.

Really spacious, clean and comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. The host, Jennie, was really responsive and helpful and the Christmas decorations made the stay feel really festive and extra special. From the wine fridge to the games room to the hot tub, the facilities were top class and made The Gatehouse a lovely relaxing stay. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay at the Gatehouse.

The whole place is well thoughtout for a family to spend time and have fun together. The kitchen area has everything you need if you decide to cook, with plenty of crockery, pans etc. The sitting room area is spacious and and comfortable. Wifi connection is brilliant, especially as there were 5 of us all using phones, watching TV and gaming at the same time. Each bedroom was spacious with plenty of storage space, comfortable beds and the window blinds kept the rooms nice and dark. The bathrooms were warm and the jacuzzi bath was wonderful to have a relaxing soak. Outside, the hot tub was great and the ping pong table and badminton net along with other outdoor games, all added to the fun. The dogs were kept secure in the garden area, so you could relax in the hut tub without any worries. The indoor games room was also a fabulous addition, especially as we had a few rainy days. The rain definately did not stop play!! There are some lovely walks right on the doorstep, so you dont need to drive to get out into the countryside. Jenny has thought the whole house out to provide a home from home holiday let, which has everything you need to enjoy a relaxing break. Just add family members, friends, food and drink!! Thank you!!! Wonderful!!! Gold star!!!!

Great responses from Jennie to all of our queries before our stay.

It was difficult to find something that we wanted that wasn't in the property. It is a stunning house which the photos do not do justice to. Easily suitable for families with the great playroom in the loft which was full of children's toys and entertainment for all ages. Beds and bed linen all very comfy and plenty of towels and hot water. Was not expecting toiletries in all the bathrooms, which were very good. Hairdryer in the Gatehouse Suite was an unexpected bonus. Also, didn't realise there was a downstairs toilet as that isn't mentioned in the blurb and the wine fridge was a real hit. Hot tub was excellent and very popular with the family. The only potential improvement, from our point of view, would be a curtain across the inside of the door of the Gatehouse suite, to soften any noise from the main room, (our grandchildren were noisy). Fabulous place with lots of extras provided and would recommend it to anybody. Thank you Jennie.

2nd visit here and we always have a fabulous time, jennie is very accommodating and her instructions are perfect on getting to the property.

The property has everything you need & more, it is spotless, there is ample parking with a nice hot tub at the end of a day. Lots of walks nearby, you will not be disappointed. Thank you!!!!

A wonderful house perfect for our multiple needs.

Situated in a very quiet village within walking distance of safe trails and near to properties and parkland to visit and enjoy. The hot tub was in daily use, lovely welcome pack and almost very dog friendly. The decor was clean and with comfortable sofas plus a full games room in the attic! Perfect week thank you.

Wow!

!! This place is an absolute dream the pictures do not do it justice its like living in a dream we stopped here for a weekend and wish we had stayed longer it has everything and all the little added extras make it feel like a home we will definitely be returning and reccomending to other family and friends

The owner’s directions to The Gatehouse were very easy to follow and a great help to get there without any issues.

We were three generations of one family (including two teens and two dogs) and we found plenty of space, comfortable beds and an even better The Hayloft games room than the website pictures show. The hot tub, badminton net and table tennis table in the garden were well used for fun, games and relaxation after lots of active days hill walking and cycling. We loved the rural location with footpaths and walking/cycling routes in all directions almost straight from the door. The kitchen was well supplied with everything needed to prepare and cook meals and there were plenty of glasses - some more plates and bowls would have saved on the washing up/more use of the dishwasher! We loved the themed rooms and decor (although a few less ornaments would have left more space for our belongings) - it was very beautifully decorated. We did miss shelving/storage in the shower cubicle and shower room for all our toiletries/wash bags, and space for wet coats. Somewhere to store 3/4 bicycles would be great, like a long, roofed lean-to along the narrow section of the front courtyard (we understand the garage now belongs to the owners so may be available in the future). We had a couple of issues on the first two nights outside of the owners control but Jennie was very quick to respond. We thoroughly recommend The Gatehouse as a lovely, relaxing, family friendly holiday destination - there’s plenty to do in the area, many things within an hour’s drive - but you could equally just enjoy the facilities and chill out at The Gatehouse.

There was a very good selection of games, toys and sports equipment provided, both outside and inside (downstairs and upstairs).

Also a lovely hot tub.

Lovely house in a great location.

Garden and hot tub fantastic for the children..nice and secure for both children and dog to be able to play safely. Games room added bonus with plenty of things to keep the kids occupied... table tennis, volley ball, karaoke, TV and DVDs, table football, arcade game, air hockey, toys to play woth for the little ones. House had everything you would need for a holiday home from home. Lovely welcome basket too... lovely hosts...just perfect.

Had a fabulous stay at the Gatehouse last week.

7 of us, with an age range of 5 to 70, all thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Literally everything had been thought of by the owner (Even the stuff we had forgotten, such as the lighter for the candle on the 70th cake) Would highly recommend for anyone to stay here. We all absolutely loved the hot tub especially. Grand children also all loved the games room on the top floor. Even the Karaoke machine got a run out. Brilliant stay from start to finish !!!

We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful property it was so spacious comfortable and relaxing and with 4 generations staying it provided everything we needed and wanted the attention to detail by the owners was first class and I would highly recommend it

Excellent property, so well kitted out with everything you could ever require (especially the kitchen) Every room was decorated to the highest standard, was immaculately clean and incredibly comfortable- especially the beds.

The highlights for us was definitely the hot tub, the games room in loft and the great supply of games for indoors and outdoors and the location. We would highly recommend this property and hope to return again very soon.

We (7 adults and 2 dogs) had a fantastic week at the Gatehouse in June.

It is a lovely property with plenty of space for everyone both inside and out, and a very tranquil setting. The owners had pretty much thought of everything with many extras that aren't often provided in self catering accommodation. The hot tub was a bonus and very popular with everyone. It was spotlessly clean and was checked/cleaned mid week too. Outdoor table tennis and badminton were a hit too and the games room was a great place to escape to. Internet was reliable (bar a couple of brief dropouts) and it handled 7 phones and someone WFH for a few days without issue! There are plenty of off road walks within a few minutes walk/drive and some beautiful countryside in the area as well as numerous other places of interest. It is the sort of place where you can cram loads in or just spend your time relaxing and enjoying the peace and quiet. We had a few comments (which shouldn't detract from this amazing property) : There were quite a few cobwebs on and around the ceilings (we removed the worst offenders!), it was very warm at night even with the windows open so perhaps some lighter weight/summer duvets could be considered, a few more pegs would be useful, the mirrors in the bedrooms were not positioned near plug sockets making it difficult for those wanting to style hair etc. Overall we had an amazing stay and would very much like to visit again in the future, thank you for providing such a wonderful holiday home.

The Gatehouse was just perfect for us.

Bridesmaids, Myself and my daughter stayed there the night before my daughters wedding. It definitely has the 'Wow' factor! The lounge/kitchen meant that we were all together when preparing food/ drinks. The spacious bedrooms were beautifully and individually decorated. On the morning that we were getting ready there was plenty of room for the hair and makeup team to set up a little work station and we all took it in turn to be transformed! whilst still all being together; it was the most relaxing morning before a wedding that I have experienced. It was just a 2 minute walk to the church gate. Also the Village of Teversall is so pretty. Everything had been thought of, the kitchen was fully equipped, the bathrooms were lovely and clean. There was plenty of parking both outside the house and also to the back of the house. Our host was very helpful with any questions we had. In summary we had the perfect place to stay and we made some amazing memories for a very special day.

This is the best property we have ever stayed at AMAZING Thankyou

Absolutely fantastic apart from doors need replacing as not top quality like everything else.

Superb kitchen & great dog walks too. Our favourite Sykes property ever

We were a family of 8 + one very behaved beagle.

Plenty of space inside and out ! We have just returned home after a most enjoyable time and feel lucky to have found such a lovely property. Communication with the owners was brilliant, including very specific driving instructions into the village/finding the property. Very peaceful and quiet location and easily accessible with lovely dog walks on the doorstep. Highly recommended !

A fabulous, full of character property in the most charming of quiet villages.

The Gatehouse is a beautiful home for larger groups - there were 7 of us and there was plenty of space - and the enclosed garden is perfect for a dog. There are many walks straight from the door, a Co-op about 2miles away and a nice pub a short distance from the house. I totally recommend this house and it’s lovely surrounding countryside.

This house is perfect for a social weekend away or a family holiday!

The open plan living was fantastic, the kitchen was very well stocked with everything you need to cook with, the beds are soooo comfortable! And such a beautiful location! Lovely walks all around! Owners were fantastic with the couple of queries we had ! I would definitely recommend and hopefully return !!

A lovely gatehouse, well equipped and clean.

We really enjoyed our stay. There are numerous walks, which we did every day with our 2 dogs. The village itself is worth a walk around. The nearby outlet centre was worth a visit even though it wasn’t very big. We would definitely rebook.

We loved our stay at the Gatehouse.

It had everything we needed and exceeded our expectations. It is in a good location with local walks nearby and places to eat. We would definitely recommend staying here.

We had an amazing stay at The Gatehouse over Christmas.

The cottage was beautiful and cosy and the beds were extremely comfortable. We used the hot tub on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and we had everything needed to make our Dinner and Day special. The playroom in the attic was also well loved by the kids. Jennie was very helpful and welcoming, the hamper on arrival was a lovely touch. Thank you again, we already can't wait to return!

Jennie was the perfect host, she was responsive to queries and offered further assistance if required.

The Gatehouse was a wonderful home for two families to share for an annual meet up. Every room was spacious and clean, the furniture comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. We received a lovely welcome email with top tips of what to bring to enhance our stay. The games room was a great hit with the kids, and I would love to return in fairer weather to make use of the lovely outdoor space.

What a fantastic place.

We have never seen such a well thought out house in such a beautiful surrounding. It was comfortable and cosy whilst also being modern. The rooms are all decorated to a high standard and furnished beautifully. We had a family celebration and the kitchen had absolutely everything we needed to put on a large buffet. What a great selection ovenware, pans, crockery and glasses. First class. All Beds were comfy, the bathrooms offered shower gel, shampoo and conditioner and the rain shower was excellent. Those that used the hot tub enjoyed it. The welcome pack was greatly received by both us and our dogs. Thanks go to Jennie who was an excellent host. Highly recommend this holiday location.

This property was superb.

It met all our expectations and the boys particularly loved the games room. It was spotlessly clean and the information provided by the owners was excellent. It was easy to get to lots of places of interest, which we certainly did. It was perfectly safe to let the dogs play in the enclosed garden and they loved it , as well as all the lovely walks around the village. The only negative was no Sky tv and we do all love our football so we did miss that but we managed for a week

A wonderful property and a lovely relaxing stay!

Communication was great from the owner and the additional directions were very clear and we had no issues finding the property even though it's tucked away. Lots to keep you entertained at both the property and many activities within a 30 minute drive such as Sherwood Forest, Sherwood Pines and Matlock Bath was a great day out for us all. Would highly reccommend for a great family break!

This was a lovely break.

Everything was as we expected and even better. I was not sure what to totally expect as we sometimes struggle to find local evening walks for our dog in some places. There were also plenty of walks locally to keep him entertained as well as places to visit within short driving distances. We would definitely go back there again. The pub that was within a short walk was OK to visit with our dog, though they're only allowed in the beer garden.

The house was perfect in a stunning area.

What a fantastic house !

This property has everything going for it - super clean, lovely rooms, fully equipped - had everything that you could need in the kitchen including the garlic crusher ! Loads of board games - we left a couple in the cupboard to add to the collection. Honestly the property was A one !!

A pleasant stay in a lovely cottage.

It was a perfect size for our party of 6 adults, 2 babies and 2 dogs. The owner Jennie was very nice and helpful. Few minor issues, a few garden chairs were breaking and needed replacing and no door latch on the downstairs bedroom wasn't ideal. However nothing to spoil our stay. Thanks

Beautiful cottage.

Well equipped - the best ever - and maintained to a very high standard. The owner is both extremely helpful and so accommodating. We were 3 generations plus a dog and all of us had a great time. Peaceful location and there are lovely walks from the cottage - always a bonus. Enjoyed a lovely Sunday roast at the dog-friendly Hilcote Arms, a short drive away, and a delicious evening meal at The Carnarvon Arms, which had a good choice of GF options.

Brilliant weekend, the property certainly has the wow factor on entering.

Everything clean and tidy and lots of accessibly cutlery and crockery. Really good information pack. Extra loo downstairs which we weren’t aware of which was a bonus given that there was only one en suite and house bathroom which our guests all managed with, so no complaints. Great outside space with hot tub. We will certainly be recommending this beautiful venue. To avoid the windy country lane with passing places. I would suggest you drive a bit further down the M1 to junction after Tibshelf service station. Otherwise it’s fine really.

Absolutely fantastic stay (again!

) - tha property is like a home away from home in that it has everything you could need, and whilst other places I have stayed only have enough glasses and crockery for the number of people staying The Gatehouse has an abundance meaning we didn’t have to always stay on top of the washing up! The folder providing info on local places to visit or eat/drink is fantastic. Our party had another fantastic stay, and are already talking about a return visit :-)

Such a beautiful home to celebrate joint milestones of 21 and 80.

Attention to detail was impeccable! Our two border terriers were safe to roam in the enclosed gardens which was top on our list!! The kitchen was soooo well equipped for the gourmet meal cooked on the Saturday, the hot tub was immaculate and welcoming!! The host was really accommodating and was able to give help/info when asked, Sunday roast at the Hardwick Inn was outstanding!!!! Would love to return Thank you so much

A delightful property which exceeded our already high expectations.

Everything about the house was lovely. It was clean, spacious, well equipped and had a lovely welcoming feel to it. My children loved the games room where they spent time playing with the numerous games in there. The hot tub was also a big hit with us all. The enclosed garden was perfect for our dog and also for the children to play in. They especially enjoyed the table tennis. There are lots of lovely walks within easy reach and it is a lovely area to explore in general. We had a fantastic day out at the nearby Go Ape in Sherwood Forest. Thank you to Jennie, the owner who had great communication and was extremely helpful. Hopefully we will be back sometime soon for another visit.

What an amazing stay in the gatehouse!

!!! Everything was perfect, the location was also perfect, the property was very well equipped everything you needed, the beds were very comfortable and rooms were spotless, lovely garden area with a hot tub which was lovely to relax in after walks on the nearby trails, will definitely be back

Lovely property.

Lots to entertain our 7 year old with the games rooms and outdoor activities. Well maintained, very clean, well stocked for crockery / utensils etc. Very nice rooms with comfy beds.

Jennie & Ian are fantastic hosts.

Very friendly and personable. Nothing is too much trouble for them. We felt well looked after and catered for. They went above and beyond for us. The Gate House is a fabulous place to stay to recharge your batteries. Beautiful surroundings. Very interesting history. Inside it has everything you would ever need plus more! Beds & sofas comfortable. Linens, fixtures, fittings, all high quality. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. Well stocked kitchen and lovely welcome basket of biscuits & Prosecco! Lots of spare items available such as batteries, plug charger and more. All the type of things you might forget to take away but would have in your own home. The clothes airers were great for towels after the hot tub. All of the cushions and throws in bedrooms and living areas were freshly washed for our stay. The underfloor heating was fab on bare feet! Hot tub brilliant and Jennie popped by to check the chemicals and top up during the week and did let us know first. As a family we had lots of fun in the games room. Karaoke, Air Hockey, Arcade Golf, Table Football plus other bits in the 'Hayloft'. Also board games and cards etc downstairs in living room with a massive coffee table to play them on! Property was secure all round. Outside in the glorious back garden alongside a prestigious hot tub was badminton, a BBQ stand, a lovely chairs and table, a pung pong table and plenty of accompanying bats, balls etc. On the doorstep a tranquil stroll through old church grounds and shops etc all a short car journey away. Being located in the middle of the UK map, it is an ideal location to visit lots of places such as Matlock Bath, Chesterfield, Nottingham and more. There was a really helpful guide folder in the Gatehouse we looked through for places to visit, which also had lots of helpful information eg Chemists, GPS, hospitals, vets, butchers, bakery, etc. By far the best family holiday we have had. Would definitely recommend!

From the moment we arrived the property just wowed.

Everything was taken care of for us with even a New Gift for us and our 4 legged baby. Jennie was a pleasure to deal with with excellent instruction on how to find the property and everything clearly labelled inside

I had booked the Gatehouse for a family get together as a surprise for my husband’s birthday.

The house was perfect. The bedrooms were beautifully laid out and the beds very comfortable. The downstairs open plan enabled everyone to be together and the kitchen was one of the best equipped I have seen in a holiday home. We were easily able to cook and serve an early Christmas dinner. The hot tub was an added bonus and the small games room in the attic would be ideal for families with children. The owner was easily contactable and very helpful. We much appreciated being able to bring our dogs. I would struggle to find any fault with this property: good position, clean, cosy with very efficient underfloor heating, comfortable, well appointed, beautifully decorated (we especially appreciated the Christmas trees and decorations) good secure garden for the dogs to play safely, even a wine fridge to keep our drinks cool. Our only tiny issue was in knowing how to operate the TV after the youngest members of our group went home but that’s a generation thing and not a problem with the TV. (Strangely our Jack Russell was terrified of the sound made by one of the remote controls so we gave up on that). I would definitely recommend the Gatehouse and hope to return some time next year. Thank you for a lovely weekend

The Gatehouse is a lovely cottage.

We had a girls birthday weekend here. The host is really kind and accommodating. Living area is spacious and clean and nice, the kitchen is very well equipped and bedrooms are cosy and well furnished. Hot tub was great fun. Everyone had a great time.

Highly recommend.

Spotless house, great facilities, absolutely fantastic and thoroughly enjoyed by all. I will definitely return. Thank you.

Lovely period cottage, that has everything you need for a relaxing family break

The weekend is something as a family we have needed.

There was a beautiful welcome hamper on our arrival. Parking for 6 cars if needed. Our journey was difficult with the weather but the owner was on hand and gave us new directions with the flood. Once we were at the house we had the break away we all needed. The house is absolutely beautiful and equipped with everything you could need. Everything had been thought about to make our stay amazing and stress free. The beds are comfy and all rooms of a good size. We had 2 dogs with us and they were catered for too There is a file with information to help with your stay. The hot tub added to our stay and the games room. This break away enabled my children, partners and my husband and I to all be together and have precious family time after the difficult year we’ve had. The house gave space at times to be together or space for quiet time too. The walks are beautiful and plenty to suit everyone. I would recommend this house to people and we have actually all ready. We will hopefully be able to come back if it’s free for our next family break away.

On our arrival at The Gatehouse our first impression was ‘Wow what an amazing place’ and the location is beautiful.

The garden is plenty big enough and more importantly nowhere for the dog to escape. Every room is beautifully presented. All the beds were lovely and comfortable however the downstairs bed not quite as comfortable as those upstairs. The kitchen has everything you need to cook for a family and plenty of space for sitting. Lots of lovely walks close by if you don’t want to drive too far. We had an amazing stay here and would without doubt stay here again if available. Fantastic place loved it.

Had an absolutely fantastic long weekend with friends.

The property is even better than the pictures if that’s possible. Clean and well maintained, plus the owners have left everything you could need for your stay, not to mention the Prosecco and chocolate gift on the day we arrived. Have already recommended to friends and family, and will likely re-visit in the future.

We had a fantastic family weekend at The Gatehouse.

It was a beautiful property with everything you could possibly need. Thank you!

A gem of a property, very clean and fully equipped.

Location ideal for visiting southern locations of Peak District. We stayed with our dog who enjoyed the many walks around the property. The only reason I have marked comfort down from 10/10 is because the bed in the downstairs suite was not that comfortable and very creaky. This would not stop us going again or recommending the property, and we are already planning our next trip.

This was one of the best holiday cottages we've stayed in.

The house was roomy, beautifully presented and was a very pleasant place to spend a relaxing weekend with friends. It was very well appointed, everything we needed was available, plenty of towels, great hot tub which worked well, comfortable beds, plenty of parking. The house was also easy to find and in a beautiful location. We would definitely consider returning.

A lovely well maintained, comfortable and equipped holiday property.

Plenty of room for 8 people, with ample space for everyone. The hot tub and games provided was well appreciated, and well used. The location was great with trails to explore as well as places of historical interest. The owner's instructions were easy to follow and extremely helpful.

Amazingly looked after, a home away from home with all the little comforts!

Will definitely be returning!

The Gatehouse was perfect!

Could not fault it at all. It was one of the best holiday cottages we have ever hired. Brilliantly equipped, with everything you could possibly need. Great open plan living for spending time with our friends. The games room/hay loft was thoroughly enjoyed by our children and the hot tub used by all. Would definitely come back!

We booked this beautiful home to celebrate my Dads 60th and it was perfect.

The information provided by the property owner prior to our visit was so detailed and Jenny was so helpful with any queries. The kitchen was so well organised and had absolutely everything! Beautiful interior and so clean, hot tub was a fantastic addition as well as an assortment of games which my niece loved. We didn’t read some of the information provided on parking before hand so we parked in the wrong spot which was our fault. Thank you

The Gatehouse couldn't have been more perfect for our family weekend.

What an amazing property, spotlessly clean & beautifully decorated, the photos don't do it justice. There was everything needed for our weekend celebration with the Gatehouse is well equipped throughout. There are some beautiful walks from the front door and it was a real treat to come back to a warm cosy house and a fantastic hot tub. Thank you Jennie & Ian

We had a fantastic time while staying at The Gatehouse.

The perfect setting for a family get together. We will be looking to return at some point in the future as the setting was beautiful and the location is a perfect meeting point between two ends of the country.

Fantastic stay at the gatehouse, it was everything it said in the right up and more, you cannot fail but to have a great relaxing break.

Would recommend it to anyone especially with children lots to keep them occupied I would give the Gatehouse 11/10.

We had the most wonderful weekend break at The Gatehouse.

The house is beautiful and has everything you could ever need. Host Jennie was very helpful and accommodating. The hot tub was also a lovely treat. Would definitely recommend!

3 Generations stayed over new year, the house met everyone's needs, it was comfortable, beautifully decorated and had everything you could think of that you might need.

The location was excellent with plenty of walks right on the doorstep. I found the Owner extremely helpful and a pleasure to deal with. All in all a great way to spend celebrating the new year.

Lovely place with lots of thoughtful and generous touches.

Super owner, very responsive. Great location with easy access to main routes for exploring. We had a Christmas family gathering and The Gatehouse was perfect for us.

The house was beautiful.

The house felt so cosy and comfortable and we settled in straight away. There was so many little attention to details the owners had thought of to make it easier to use the facilities in the house. The garden was perfect for two dogs as it was all enclosed and we knew they would be safe. The location was perfect as there was a beautiful woodland walk just down the road with a pub next too. Plenty of parking and easy to find. The kitchen is perfect for a big group of guests and had all the equipment we needed. Honestly I couldn't fault the stay, the owners were so helpful and made sure we had all the information we needed prior to the visit.

From before we even arrived at the accommodation Jennie was so helpful and went out her way in putting up Christmas decorations for us.

As soon as you step inside the accommodation it feels homely, smells gorgeous and everywhere is clean. Everything you need is provided for you, the space and layout is ideal for a group of people coming together. We loved our stay and would definitely look to stay again as loved every minute. Thank You

Beautiful cottage in a lovely location!

Lots of walks on the doorstep. The cottage was very well equipped & Jennie thought about everything that was needed! Games room was brilliant & the hot tub was perfect temperature! Amazing place! Thank you x

The Gatehouse was the perfect venue for our family gathering to celebrate a birthday.

The house is very nicely furnished and very well equipped. The hot tub and the games room in the attic were particular favourites. The dog loved it too, with plenty of walks on the doorstep.

Brilliant trip !

The household is stunning . Very clean and great space for hanging out , cooking and social gathering Went here for my 30th birthday and could not recommend it enough for a party of 8

This is an absolutely beautiful and well equipped property in a lovely quite location.

There are loads of different walks that you can access directly from the property. The walk to Hardwick hall is quite easy and the walk to silver hill wood and the miners statue were beautiful and easy. It’s worth going to Teversal visitors centre to pick up the Discover the phoenix greenways leaflet which again is an easy walk from the property. We had a lovely Sunday lunch at the Carnarvon and the mining museum at Pleasley pit country park was very interesting. An absolutely brilliant week. Thanks very much.

The Gatehouse is a beautiful property, set in a lovely location, the property is great for families with children having a fantastic games room and also games outside in the garden provided and hot tub for the adults.

The facilities inside the property are great too for comfort and cleanliness and welcome gifts provided. Dog friendly too which is an added bonus. Thank you so much and would recommend this property.

In 40 years of holiday cottages, Jennie stands out as the best owner by miles.

So kind, accommodating and responsive. She deserves her own award. She has clearly thought hard about her guests and their requirements which you can see everywhere that you look in the property.

We stayed at the Gatehouse with 4 Adults, 4 kids and a dog.

The only thing I can say is the place is 1st class. We have stayed in many Sykes cottages and this is one of the best. The garden area is so peaceful and quiet, with only the local church bells heard. The garden is ample for kids to play and the dog to enjoy. The downstairs bedroom has a little sun trap area, which offered a great escape for my parents. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a great week away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Sit back, unwind and enjoy the sun in peace and quiet.

Lovely home, perfect for our 2 families with teenagers.

Hot tub and games room were a real hit. Fenced garden was fabulous for our dog as were the walks on the doorstep. Jennie was super helpful. I think we will be back!

Had a wonderful few nights at the gatehouse.

A wonderful property. Nice welcome pack from jennie. The garden was a plus for the dogs would really recommend

We booked this property as a weekend get away with friends.

On our arrival we were immediately stunned by how beautiful the house was. The space was immaculate and the bedrooms designed beautifully. It was exactly what we were looking for and we were all over the moon with the house. Jennie was a lovely host and very prompt with her replies. The prosecco, chocolate and dog treats were an added bonus! Thank you again!

We have just returned from a weeks stay in the gatehouse and we had the best time.

I cannot recommend this place enough. The house is beautiful and fully equipped with anything you need. We arrived to lovely dog treats, biscuits and Prosecco which was such a nice touch and made us feel very welcome. There were 3 of us and 2 dogs and we had so much room. The beds very comfortable and everywhere very clean and tidy. Personally want to thank Jennie the owner for being so lovely and accommodating. WE WILL BE BACK!!!!!

Ages 41 x 2, 16 x 4, 10, 9 and our 2 dogs.

We have just returned home after a few days at The Gatehouse… what an incredible time we have had! The Gatehouse is absolutely beautiful, so full of character and equipped with everything you could possibly need and everything else you hadn’t considered! The owner called us prior to stay and was so accommodating, she left us a welcome pack of Prosecco, biscuits, chocolates and dog treats! There was 10 of us in total (8 Humans and 2 dogs) and we were never in each other’s way, there is so much space and so much to do. The teenagers in particular LOVED the games room in the loft and we all loved the hot tub. My Husband and I stayed in the lower floor bedroom and we loved having the door open to the courtyard and listening to the birds and background noise of Teversal Manor. The kitchen was amazing, we loved cooking big hearty meals for all the kids, it was fab to all get together at night and eat and drink there. The location is beautiful too, Teversal Manor is so full of wonder and history and is maintained immaculately. Thank you Jennie, we really hope to return some day soon.

We had a great stay thank you.

The gatehouse is a lovely property and had everything that we needed. The location is great.

Fabulous weeks stay at the gatehouse.

Facilities were amazing - great open plan layout, kitchen with every utensil you would need-especially loved the large beer / wine fridge as there was 8 of us. Comfy beds and lots of room for clothes etc. Outdoor area was brilliant, hot tub, garden games and a very sunny aspect made for a perfect relaxing area. some great walks in the area and had a fabulous week - thankyou ! would highly recommend

What a lovely property!

We were two families spending a week together and there was plenty of space for all of us to relax inside and out. The kitchen is so well-equipped we didn’t go out to eat at all and the lovely high ceilings make the whole house feel really light and open. The enclosed garden is great for younger children (and our dog too!). We enjoyed the hot tub and ample garden furniture including a badminton net, which got lots of use! The games room is a really fun addition. Decor throughout is lovely and feels quite luxurious, especially in the upstairs bedrooms, which are stunning. Some lovely extra touches like shampoo, conditioner and shower gel in both bathrooms and Easter-themed welcome gifts were really appreciated. We enjoyed walking on the Teversal Trail and playing on the village green for a bit of extra space. Thank you!!

We had a lovely time staying in this fabulous house.

The owner was very helpful and pleasant, a delight to meet! The house was immaculate with every comfort you could possibly want. The location was great, so peaceful to unwind, with lots of walks from the doorstep. Who could ask for more…. wish we could have stayed longer! We would love to return and I thoroughly recommend this property.

Had a fabulous weekend at The Gatehouse with family to celebrate a birthday.

The location of the property is beautiful and peaceful, and the accommodation itself is perfectly presented. The open plan kitchen, dining and lounge areas are very well equipped and very comfortable. The kids loved the games room in the attic. The garden area with hot tub is enclosed and was ideal for our dog and for the kids to play games. We loved our stay and would highly recommend.

Beautiful cottage with absolutely everything you need for the family and our 4 legged family.

A lovely warm welcome from Jennie the cottage owner, we will definitely return to ‘The Gatehouse’.

Had a 2 night stay at the Gatehouse for a birthday celebration.

Pre visit communication with the owner Jennie was excellent, nothing was too much trouble for her. The property is amazing, and spotlessly clean. Even though there were 8 of us (6 adults and 2 children), also 2 small dogs, there was no feeling of being cramped. The kitchen has everything you need from fabulous duel powered range to microwave/dishwasher/washing machine etc. Bedrooms are very spacious and tastefully decorated and the games room is outstanding. There's a large outdoor area, very well enclosed which ensures plenty of privacy for using the hot tub. The only negative to our stay, was it wasn't long enough! Thank you Jennie for being such an amazing host ❤️

Exceptional place!

Our host was very helpful and welcoming. Beautifully presented and maintained property with great facilities in a lovely location. Plenty to do in and around the surrounding villages. We found a few great pubs and restaurants, all listed in the recommendations from the host. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!

We have just spent the weekend at the cottage and it was really nice.

The games room in the loft was great for the kids and the whole place was clean and had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend the place.

Had a lovely weeks stay.

The house was so clean and comfortable. The location was great and the owner was very helpful. I would definitely 100% recommend this property. The owner had thought of absolutely everything down to hot water bottles and torches in every bedroom just in case they are ever needed. Hut tub was great in the evening to wind down after a busy day out. We would definitely look to go back.

Fantastic tastefully converted period property in the beautiful and little known Teversal village.

Great open plan downstairs and well equipped kitchen makes for easy entertaining for multiple families, and the top floor games room is a wonderful added bonus for the children. All the bedrooms were spacious and stylishly fitted. Very helpful interaction with the owners, who also kindly arranged for return of some of our forgotten items. Would recommend to anyone.

We had a lovely family holiday in this beautiful house.

The house is so comfortable and has everything you could need. It is in a lovely quiet location and has a beautiful secluded garden with a hot tub that was used every day. Our host’s were very friendly and were on had if anything was needed. We will definitely be returning in the future.

A fabulous house which was perfect for catching up with friends and celebrating birthdays.

The only thing which would be handy and would have meant that one of the party could stay longer would be the addition of a washing machine. Beautiful house in a lovely location. We'll definitely be back! Thank you!

Our stay at The Gatehouse was just perfect.

Everything we needed for a family Christmas, all facilities were excellent, I was surprised and pleased that the owners had put a Christmas tree up, my Grandson loved it. Very warm and welcoming, beautiful furniture and decor throughout the property, you can tell that a lot of thought and effort has gone into this beautiful holiday home. Would love to go back, we didn’t want to leave!
