  • "3 generations including adult grandchildren with boyfriends."

    Chapelfield had everything we wanted. Great accommodation and good location for access to features of the Peak District. We particularly liked Curber Edge, Black Rocks and Masson Mill. The local walk through Pendelsham wood is good. Enjoyed having the cows come to visit.

    I acknowledge the details specified no charging but it would enhance the property. Alternatively an additional sum could be paid whenever charging occurred.

  • "We spent a lovely family Christmas at Chapelfield."

    It was a gorgeous property with the most stunning views. It was warm, cosy and comfortably furnished. David and Sally were extremely helpful when the heating unexpectedly stopped working. They came straight away with extra heaters and more wood for the log burner, making sure the boiler was fixed as quickly as possible. Because of this it didn’t detract from our enjoyment of this amazing place! Don’t hesitate to book, you really won’t be disappointed!

  • "All three generations of the family loved this warm, spacious, well-equipped house with fantastic views enhanced by the fabulous autumn colours."

    Friendly cows and calves in the adjacent field came to say hello at breakfast time and the tawny owls hooted at nighttime whilst the bats flitted about. Chapelfield was the perfect find for a family gathering for celebrations covering a significant Wedding Anniversary for the oldest members of our party and an exciting birthday for the youngest. We enjoyed lovely visits to interesting places within a short drive from the property, including a children’s farm, a tram museum and Chatsworth House with stunning grounds and beautiful interior. We would highly recommend Chapelfield, not only for the accommodation and its situation, but also for the thoughtfulness and helpfulness of the hosts. We didn’t want to return home to reality and would love to stay there again.

  • "Rather nice."

    a few minor things. Gutters needed cleaning out as when it rained water came down the front windows/doors. The trees needed pruning off the roof

  • "Chapelfield has everything you need for a great holiday."

    It's well equipped and caters perfectly for a larger group of people. The beds were comfortable. The views are wonderful and the house is in a peaceful setting. The only suggestion I would make would be to have a larger toaster, rather than just the 2 slice one.

  • "Had a lovely stay at Chapelfield and managed to explore a lot of the area despite the weather."

    There is so much to see within a short car ride away. The house was very comfortable and well-equipped and was perfect for a 3 generation gathering for my 60th birthday. There was plenty of space to spread out so that we weren't on top of each other but also space so that we could eat together and also come together to play games without disturbing those not playing. Would highly recommend.

    It was lovely and warm, which were appreciated very much. We were able to use all of the amenities with ease. The kitchen was very well stocked, the only thing we needed was a kitchen scale, and perhaps a slightly bigger fridge. Also, the downstairs bathrooms could have used a hand towel. Otherwise we have no complaints. There was ample parking

  • "The property is superb and in a beautiful setting."

    The views are fantastic and walks are off the doorstep. It's a high spec property with everything there as published. Communication with the company and owners was efficient and correct. It was a perfect house and location for our post Christmas family get together. The only downside we did note.. the fridge is on the small side for such a large household, especially if you don't want to shop regularly or go out for meals. Having said that, we coped and it didn't spoil our stay.
