  • "This is such a beautiful house."

    The views are stunning and the space was great. The owners were really helpful in the run up to our stay with a very useful welcome pack so we had all your instructions wet needed. We had a few young children in our group and the house is very well equipped with stair gates and lots of books and toys. We would love to come back.

    It was our pleasure hosting your group. We are so happy that you found Glenhurst welcoming and suitable for a long weekend stay for your family and friends. Thank you for your kind review and we look forward to your booking again! Property Owner

  • "We had the most wonderful stay at Glenhurst."

    The location and setting of the house was perfect, the photos don’t do justice the beautiful view from the property. The living space is spacious and bright and perfect to house a family get together. All of the communication from the lovely owners was great, they got back to us super fast and were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend and would love to visit again!

    Thank you for your glowing feedback. We have really enjoyed hosting you and your family for the long weekend. You were all very kind and understanding guests. We hope this was a holiday full of great memories and also hope you will think of Glenhurst and Holmesfield again on your next visit to Derbyshire. Thank you again. Property Owner

  • "Very nice house in a very picturesque part of the country with a spectacular view of the countryside from the house."

    The house was homely, tidy, functional and the kitchen was well equipped. The surrounding area had plenty of walks a short walk from the house where you could have a short stroll or a long hike. The owners were engaging and even sent a surprise gift when they found out about the birthdays we were celebrating. Would definitely strongly consider staying again.

    Hi and thank you for your kind review. We were so happy to hear that you and your group decided to celebrate a few birthday milestones at Glenhurst, and hope it was made memorable. We would love to welcome you back again soon. Property Owner

  • "Glenhurst is a very well appointed house in a convenient location for the Peak District and Sheffield."

    It has lovely views over the valley to the rear of the house. Three couples and two children shared the house and we were very comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed and well supplied with cooking utensils and tableware. We visited at the end of October so the weather was not conducive to sitting out on the verandah but we reflected that it must have been lovely to sit out on long fine evenings.

    Thank you for your review. We are so happy you and your group were able to enjoy a week together at Glenhurst. We hope the children enjoyed playing with the toys, and would love to host you again if you ever visit the Peak District in the future. Property Owner

  • "A lovely house with plenty of space."

    The bedrooms were roomy and the 3 showers were quite powerful. The view from the back of the house was exceptional unfortunately due to the time of year and the weather we could not enjoy the balcony. The house information we were given included everything we needed to know about the house , the appliances and the local area.

    Thank you for choosing Glenhurst. The views from the balcony are very dramatic on a rainy day, but a sunnier & drier day does offer more walks and BBQs outside. We hope you will visit us again at a different part of the year to experience another side of Holmesfield and the Peak District. Thank you again for your review! Property Owner

    Thank you very much for your kind review. We look forward to welcoming you and your group in Glenhurst again! Property Owner

    I needed to make the owner's aware of some standard maintenance issues we discovered but these did not detract in any way from our break.

    Thank you very much for your feedback. Also thank you for letting us know about the maintenance. We have taken time over the summer to revamp the house and all your concerns have been set right. We hope you will visit us again soon!! Property Owner

    The children were very impressed with the range of toys which kept them occupied during the rain showers and inclement weather.

  • "We had a great stay at Glenhurst (5 adults and 2 children)."

    We chose it for the ample private parking, the open plan kitchen, dining and lounge and the private bathroom/ensuites for each double bedroom. It did not disappoint. The kitchen had everything we needed and the countryside views from the dining table were breathtaking. The huge selection of toys was a lovely touch and kept the children entertained for hours. The house was well located for day trips out in the Peak District and the local pub served delicious meals. The owners were very attentive and emailed lots of useful information prior to our stay. Thanks again.

    A shout out to the neighbours who came to our rescue due to the heavy snow fall but, this only made the property even more outstanding.

  • "What an amazing holiday we had glenhurst!"

    The views from the back of the house are breath taking, absolutely beautiful. Situated in a perfect location only 10 minutes from large super markets and restaurants. The house itself is very secure with a gated driveway! Modern design throughout, very family friendly, had everything needed to cook, clean and relax! Very cosy in the winter months due to log burner. This property will always be special to us now as we got engaged here, already looking at booking again! Owners couldn’t be more helpful, checked in to make sure everything was okay / if we needed anything(via email). Easy step by step guide book on how to use everything in the house and recommendations for local restaurants and sites to see. We recommend the tickled trout for Sunday roast a 10/10. Would recommend this holiday home to anyone! Thank you Adam and Chiaki

    Thank you very much for your comment. We are delighted to hear Glenhurst was able to help in making your holiday and proposal a very special one. We can't wait to welcome you and your family back to the house again. Property Owner

    If I could give it more stars, I'd have to consult the night sky itself, because this place is out-of-this-world amazing. The views? Oh, they're so breathtaking, even the birds have started taking notes for their own bucket lists! Picture this: I'm sipping a cup of tea, gazing out at the majestic scenery, and suddenly, I'm pretty sure I just became a poet. It was the best weekend ever – so much so that I might need to start a support group for my other weekends, which are now feeling totally inferior. Now, let's talk about Adam and Chiaki, the dynamic duo of hospitality. These two are like the superhero owners you never knew you needed. They're so accommodating that I'm pretty sure they could turn a potato into a five-star meal if you asked nicely. In a nutshell, my stay here was so delightful that even the sunshine was jealous. If you don't visit, you're missing out on a seriously charming experience.

    Thank you very much for your wonderful and descriptive feedback. We are so happy we were able to make your weekend special. You and your group were fantastic guests and it was a pleasure hosting you. Holmesfield has so much to offer; we hope you will be back with us again soon. Property Owner

    In particular we enjoyed the beautiful views, how easy it is to pop under the garden fence and go for a walk and how close we were to a local pub which was a crowd please for all of the family. There were lots of little touches which made staying with a family really easy like the high chair, cot, colouring and toddler cutlery which was a real benefit not having to put everything in the car. A wonderful property and very responsive hosts to any questions we had. We’d love to come back.

The property

This contemporary and spacious home sits in a tranquil position in the village of Holmesfield, close to the market town of Dronfield and is a fantastic base for a walking holiday.

Set over two floors and backing onto picturesque fields, Glenhurst provides a luscious escape for large families of all ages, whether you are looking to escape the normalities of everyday life or just out to explore Derbyshire.

Upon arrival you are greeted by ample off-road parking spaces, so there’s plenty of room for the family cars.

Step inside and wander through to the large, open-plan living space which is uplifted by natural light from the window panels and bi-fold doors.

Allow the head chef to get comfortable in the kitchen, equipped with an electric double oven, 6-ring hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and even a dishwasher, so you’ll have everything required for home-cooking.

Gather at the dining table and cheers to a much-needed family escape, before retreating to the sofa and alluring woodburning stove.

Alternatively, take the evening outside and enjoy a moment on the balcony, gazing across the garden and towards the fields.

There's also a handy utility with a washing machine and tumble dryer, perfect for freshening up your wardrobe!

When it comes to catching your rest, choose between five neatly presented bedrooms; on the first floor lies two doubles which enjoy lavish en-suite facilities, and a further two doubles (one with two twin beds), whilst there is also a ground-floor sofa bed that can be made into a double bed that is ideal for those with limited mobility.

Start the morning with a shower or soak in the family bathroom, before popping on your walking boots and heading out to explore the local countryside.

There are four pubs within walking distance which have been loved by the locals for many years.

From your doorstep, stroll into the centre of Holmesfield where you can find the Angel Inn and Rutland Arms, ideal for treating your loved ones to some hearty fare on the days you don't feel like cooking!

Head into the market town of Dronfield, which has great historical significance and the Grade I listed Church of St John the Baptist is testament to this as it has stood at the centre of this community since the 12th century.

Further afield, the scenic trails and cycle routes of the Peak District await, including many fascinating caverns, imposing peaks and listed buildings.

Treat the family to a memorable stay at Glenhurst.

Holmesfield is a small village situated on a high peak between Bakewell and Sheffield, on the very edge of the Peak District National Park, and with commanding views of the Cordwell Valley. Surrounded by undulating countryside and deep valleys, the village is made up of a group of traditional old houses, interesting manors, a village hall and the parish church of St Swithins, built in 1826. There are many local amenities; the area boasts eight pubs and a number of fine restaurants, and is ideally located for exploring this interesting and beautiful area. Nearby, the impressive Damflask, Agden, Dale Dike and Ladybower dams make for an interesting afternoon's ramble, while the attractive village of Hathersage is also within easy reach, thought to be the inspiration for Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre and home to a selection of shops, pubs and inviting eateries, and a lovely outdoor lido. There are many stately homes to visit including Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and Hardwick Hall to mention just a few, whilst the historic and ever popular town of Bakewell along with the lively city of Sheffield are both within a short drive. An ideal location whatever the time of year.
