  • "Lovely property, well equipped, comfortable, spacious and attractive."

    The upper floor is the open lan living area. Lots of parking outside de the property. Close to nice walks and pretty towns. If I was going to make one suggestion, it would be to make an upstairs cloakroom. Having said that , it’s no big deal to go downstairs to the many comfortable bathrooms.

  • "We traveled as a group of junior football coaches for a walking weekend and a few drinks in Buxton, staying for 2 nights."

    The accommodation was spacious and well-equipped. The owners were very accommodating, even providing a BBQ for us to use (for a small charge) that wasn't listed. Despite our group of 11, it never felt crowded. Although not every room was ensuite, there were plenty of showers, and the hot water remained consistently hot. As a respectful but occasionally lively group, we appreciated the thick walls which kept noise levels manageable. The location is ideal for walks; we tackled Kinder Scout and found the Monsail Trail accessible to those with children. It’s important to be mindful of noise if you're upstairs, but other than that, it was the perfect place to stay!

  • "Meadow View was the perfect location for our large family gathering."

    The property is spacious and incredibly well equipped. With a double cooker and two fridges it was easy to shop and cook for everyone. Everything was spotlessly clean on arrival. The beds were super comfy. The property is in a great location for visiting the beautiful area surrounding it. There are endless places to visit within a 30/40 minute drive. We would definitely aim to go back.

  • "We have visited this property several times in the past and it provides an excellent opportunity for a multi-generational holiday."

    Sadly, however, some of the facilities are beginning to became a little shabby and in need of some TLC. The bedroom we occupied at the far end of the house is case in point, The mattress was very soft with a badly fitted mattress cover which was quite uncomfortable. There is a lack of hanging space and too few drawers for 2 adults staying for 7 days. The shower tray had quite a lot of mildew on the sealant and the the holder for the shower head was in danger of disintegrating. In addition the carpet in the bedroom hall was badly wrinkled and gave an unfortunate appearance associated with a degree of lack of care. The open plan living area is an excellent family space and the 'snug' a real bonus. Unfortunately the appliances seemed as though they were in urgent need of replacing: the front panel of the dishwasher was cracked; the freezer compartment of the main fridge badly needed defrosting; we had difficulty in using one of the two ovens; and one of the door-shelves of the other fridge fell out when the door was opened. The entire let, although potentially really good, needs work doing to it to brig it up to the standard we remember.

  • "The property was lovely, as were the complimentary biscuits (thank you very much!"

    ). The space is HUGE! There were only 4 of us and we never felt on top of each other. The kitchen was very well equipped and we didn't want for anything. Lovely and clean and bright. We all found the beds to be very comfortable- and the towels are FABULOUS!!!! I would however advise caution when booking if you have any sight or mobility concerns- there is a steep flight of stairs, with dark carpet and no rail on the wall, just the bannister. Outside, there are three steps to the front door; the second step is rather higher than the others, and again, no rail. It may not be a problem for others but it certainly caused problems for one member of our party. Other than that, I would recommend Meadowview :) (we may even return!)

    The property was very well maintained, clean and spacious. It was also well equipped for a large group and in a lovely area. Not too far from shops and Buxton but rural enough to feel away from it all. The owners were also attentive. The only downside was the some of the beds were quite uncomfortable.

    11 of us just spent the weekend here and had the best time. There’s a massive living room, dining table and little snug so plenty of room. Benches outside meant we could sit out in the sun. Beds were so so comfy! Everything was immaculate! Only thing I’d say is bring your own washing up stuff and potentially a couple of non stick frying pans and loo roll but other than that we didn’t have a single issue! If anyone’s fussy about noise the living space is upstairs so this potentially isn’t for you if you go to bed early but we managed fine and intend to come back!

    There is a Morrison’s nearby and several restaurants, including Thai, Indian and fish and chips, so you can eat in or take away that you can drive to within ten minutes. The property itself spacious and there is ample living space on the second floor for up to 12 people. The snug is a lovely add on and the large dining table is lovely and ideal for eating in together (a little difficult to get on and out of the very long bench seats though but you get used to climbing out). There are 2 TVs in the living rooms but they are not smart TVs so you have to bring along your PlayStation to access Netflix if you want to have a movie night. The kitchen is well equipped and contains all the utensils, dishes, cups, glasses and cutlery you could need and is fully equipped with 2 kettles, a fridge freezer, dishwasher and 2 cookers. The bedrooms are of an average size and three contain en-suite bathrooms. Be mindful, the plumbing is a little loud. The bathrooms look like they have been partially updated over the years but could do with new Lino on the floors. Enough pillows and towels are provided for guests, the linen is clean and there is a laundry room with a washer dryer, iron and ironing board. Handwash and toilet rolls are provided but the host may need to provide an extra roll in each bathroom as we ran out by the end of the stay. Unfortunately the beds let down the stay; they could do with upgrading. The mattresses in the rooms are uncomfortable, far too springy, soft and the frames are not very sturdy, this led to a few sleepless nights and could be a game changer when thinking of booking again. Cleanliness is good overall, the vacuum cleaner was full when we got there and could do with an empty pit between guests. The hosts were lovely and extremely helpful, I’m sure there is nothing they would not do to make our stay more comfortable.

About the location

BUXTON

Tideswell 7 miles; Bakewell 12 miles; Matlock 21 miles.

It was the constant 28 degrees centigrade of the bubbling blue waters of Buxton's eight thermal springs that originally attracted the Romans to the town. However it was during the 18th and 19th centuries, under the patronage of successive Dukes of Devonshire, that the Palladian splendour of the Buxton of today was designed and built - including the magnificent semi-circular Crescent, The Great Stable, Hall Bank, The Square, The Pavilion Gardens and The Opera House. Today visitors continue to enjoy these magnificent buildings and gardens, as well as the Opera House's full programme and annual festivals of music and arts. There is good walking close by with rugged peaks to the north and gentle hills and dales to the south and a number of pretty towns and villages are dotted throughout including Bakewell, Ashford-in-the-Water, Castleton and Edale. The stunning properties of Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are within easy driving distance and must be seen while visiting this area. A great base for exploring the Peak District.
