The Atrium is fantastic and beautifully done .

The Hot tub is also fab My only quibble is the fact that Four of the rooms have double beds . As it happened it worked out for my party as I had fewer than 12 so we managed It presupposes there will be at least 4 couples .

The Old Pump House more than lived up to expectations.

The house itself was exceptionally clean when we arrived and was very well equipped with everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. We especially enjoyed the hot tub which was cleaned/checked daily by Gary. Situated in Nottinghamshire, it was just a half an hour drive and we were in the heart of the Peak District. Would highly recommend this property.

We had the most wonderful stay at The Pumphouse and honestly couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

From the moment we arrived, we were so impressed by how beautifully presented, spotlessly clean and thoughtfully furnished the property was. The Pumphouse has been decorated with real style and character, with so many lovely details throughout. The original ‘well’ feature inside the house is particularly special and such a unique focal point. Being able to light it up in the evening creates a wonderful atmosphere and makes the property feel even more memorable. The bedrooms are spacious, comfortable and beautifully furnished, with plenty of room for everyone to relax. The house is exceptionally well equipped, particularly for a larger group. There was an excellent selection of utensils, glasses, plates, pots and pans, along with a double oven and plenty of fridge and freezer space. Everything had clearly been considered, making it incredibly easy to cook, dine and entertain our group of 12. The outdoor space is equally impressive. It is beautifully arranged with ample outdoor furniture, so everyone can sit together or find somewhere to relax. The jacuzzi was a fantastic addition and made the outside space even more enjoyable. The whole property is perfect for spending quality time together as a group, while still being spacious enough that everyone has plenty of room. It is stylish, comfortable, extremely well equipped and has a really special feel to it. We had an absolutely fabulous time at The Pumphouse and made some wonderful memories there. It exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful property for a group stay or special occasion. We would very happily return!
