Mr Richardson
October 2020

“The situation of the property was ideal for us being close to facilities but in a peaceful spot with many walks easily accessed.”

- Mr Richardson, October 2020
Mrs Westripp October 2020

“I am making it clear I am reviewing Underbank Hall Cottage not the company Sykes.”

The feedback form seems geared to Sykes not the efforts of the cottage owner? I didn't appreciate being emailed on the morning before we left (only there for a long weekend) about packing up ... The external photo of the cottage does not do it justice. It is an absolute gem of a cottage and location. The driveway and surrounding gardens are beautiful and the cottage decorated and equipped to a high standard and so comfortable. Everything worked so simply. No ridiculous instructions for the TV and shower etc. We hope to return to see the gardens in better weather.

- Mrs Westripp, October 2020
Mr Styles September 2020

“Having stayed here for a week followed by another cottage in Wales I can compare the two.”

Although the 2nd one was a little more expensive this was due its location and general appearance. Also provided were some basis such as salt and a few tea bags and coffee. Also a welcome pack of wine,cake and crisps. Two books were also provided for holiday comments and any improvements. These were of only a small cost but made a massive difference to our holiday and could easily be implemented here

- Mr Styles, September 2020
Ms Methley September 2020

“Underbank Hall was a wonderful experience.”

The owners were so friendly and welcoming and helpful. In these Covid19 times I couldn’t have felt safer staying there. I grew up in Stocksbridge and passed the driveway thousands of times: it was such a joy to see the Hall, stay in the Housekeepers cottage and enjoy the views and the gardens.

- Ms Methley, September 2020
Mr Ross August 2020

“The hosts were just lovely, the cottage was amazing.”

Great location and relatively easy to find. Cleaning was to the highest standard, bed was comfy as a cloud. Bath and shower were excellent with great water pressure, the kitchen amenities were well stocked and it was like a home from home. Would definitely recommend and would love to visit again sometime.

- Mr Ross, August 2020
Dr Anderson July 2020

Mr Kettleborough December 2019

“Lovely cottage very comfortable, would highly recommend, will visit again”

- Mr Kettleborough, December 2019
Mr Beckwith November 2019

“This is our forth visit to Underbank and I don't think it will be our last.”

The cottage has everything needed for making a comfortable holiday for two people and their dog. The views over Langsett Moor are stunning and far reaching, and during our visit we were privileged to see them clothed in a covering of frost on three mornings.

- Mr Beckwith, November 2019
Mrs Smith June 2019

“The venue was stunning, so peaceful and relaxing.”

- Mrs Smith, June 2019
Mr Norris May 2019

- Mr Norris, May 2019
Mrs Neilson March 2019

“We have an English Pointer dog, and access to several acres for him was absolutely the icing on the cake !”

- Mrs Neilson, March 2019
Mrs Wright January 2019

“The cottage was warm and comfortable even in the snowy weather, we really needed the peace and quiet and it fit the bill perfectly.”

There was some scones and homemade jam waiting for us and it felt like home from home.

- Mrs Wright, January 2019
Mrs Kaal December 2018

“Everything about this cottage was wonderful, set in beautiful location with stunning views.”

As soon as you arrive it has a very homely and relaxing feel. The cake and tea went down a treat after a 4 hour journey and we all settled in well. The bed was so comfortable and well needed after a day of exploring the peak. The little thoughtful details like having the lamps on (we arrived when dark) curtains closed, heating on a comfortable heat, the cake and tea and relaxing bubble bath to use there really set the holiday off from the beginning - so thank you very much! The ensuite bathroom is lovely and modern with a walk in shower and lovely big bath. It really was the perfect way to celebrate the husbands birthday and see in the new year. We can not wait to return to underbank hall cottage in the summer!

- Mrs Kaal, December 2018
Mrs Clubb November 2018

“This was our 3rd stay at the cottage, we feel so at home there, very relaxing, absolutely love it!”

I wish all self catering cottages gave as much as this does, so clean and tidy with lots of little extras which make the stay exceptional. The views and setting are gorgeous and we enjoyed beautiful autumn colour this time.

- Mrs Clubb, November 2018
Mr Hampton October 2018

“Brilliant arrival, fresh scones and homemade jam also butter and milk.”

Just the refreshing start to our stay and needed after the journey.

- Mr Hampton, October 2018

Perfect for our long weekend. We hope to come again.

- Dr Pitcher, July 2018
Mrs Charrington June 2018

“Lots of walking in the countryside.”

Relaxing in the lovely gardens. Down side passing traffic noise

- Mrs Charrington, June 2018
Mr Ellis June 2018

“Our second stay at this lovely cottage.”

Still very well maintained and comfortable. Gardens are just lovely, really appreciated being able to pick some strawberries.

- Mr Ellis, June 2018
Mrs Batley May 2018

“Second visit to Underbank Hall Cottage, wont be the last, just as superb.”

Fabulous views, peaceful, cosy cottage within reach of many places. Friendly helpful hosts, always on hand if there are any problems. Lovely welcome gift of homemade jam and scones.

- Mrs Batley, May 2018
Mr Mercer May 2018

“Underbank Hall Cottage is an idyllic retreat from the hurly burly of everyday life.”

It is spotlessly clean, well-equipped and very spacious for two people with a large living area/kitchen and a huge bedroom with en suite facilities. The cottage garden is very well-stocked and well-maintained but its main advantage is that it looks out over the owners’ huge and beautifully-presented grounds and beyond to views of the local moors; simply stunning. We also found the location to be convenient for long walks and visits to National Trust properties nearby. For those who enjoy cinema, the Penistone Paragon is a must; it’s like taking a trip back to the 1950s and is well worth a visit, if only for the interval where you queue up for ice-cream (just like in the olden days)! We strongly recommend this property and would like to say a big ‘Thank You’ to Delia and David, the delightful owners whose discreet presence was reassuring but at no times intrusive.

- Mr Mercer, May 2018
Mrs Phillips April 2018

“I only put MET expectations as I expect very high and that is what I got.”

The cottage was in a beautiful location and was clean, cosy and calming. The gardens were magnificent and we met "the gardener" who turned out to be the owner. We spent a long time with him wandering around discussing the plants and flowers. The chickens were amazing with feathered crowns. The home-made scones were a delight and a welcome sight on arrival. We will be booking again, in a different season to see how things change as there was so much to see. Stocksbridge was a few minutes away and is well supported with shops and businesses although the fuel there is pricey. We found cheaper on our travels. The moors have little signposting so as to preserve the scenery, so a really good OS map is essential. There are some really beautiful villages to be discovered (and tearooms). There is a walk from the cottage which takes you down to the reservoir and as the walk is circular you end up back home.

- Mrs Phillips, April 2018
Mr Brookes March 2018

“Third visit, comfortable cottage and really welcoming owners.”

- Mr Brookes, March 2018
Mr Carter March 2018

“The cottage was very good in every way and the owner very friendly and helpful.”

The first two days were dominated by heavy snowfalls but the owner cleared a path so that I could get my car out of the drive. I enjoyed my week there and experienced many of the walks that the area provided.

- Mr Carter, March 2018
Mrs Barrett February 2018

“Lovely cottage, perfect for time away with the dog with ots of places to walk.”

Very comfy bed, a big bath, a nice spacious cottage overall.

- Mrs Barrett, February 2018
Mrs Gray November 2017

“Beautiful cottage in a stunning location.”

It has everything you need for a wonderful holiday. If, like us, you need the Internet then, unfortunately, this is the cottage’s one failing. The WiFi advertised was only available very intermittently and, as we were house hunting and needing maps etc, it meant we spent an awful amount of time in the nearby Fox Valley centre using their internet. If, however, you are looking to get away from it all in total comfort, then this is the right place to do just that, and we can highly recommend it.

- Mrs Gray, November 2017
Mr Newton October 2017

“Excellent property and location, the perfect bolt hole!”

Quiet, relaxing and has everything you need. Owners were lovely, and very helpful. Didn't want to leave, even tried to work out a date to return before we pulled out the gate.

- Mr Newton, October 2017
Mrs Batley May 2017

“Excellent cottage, beautiful gardens, lovely hosts, ideal for travelling to Barnsley.”

Couldnt ask for more, extremely happy :)

- Mrs Batley, May 2017
Mrs Davis April 2017

“We loved the little cottage it had everything we needed the only thing it struggles with is the internet we would definitely go back again I highly recommend this little place.”

- Mrs Davis, April 2017
Margaret B April 2017

“A trip down memory lane.”

I worked for British Steel down the fox valley in the 1970s so this was a bit of a nostalgia holiday. The cottage is in a lovely position with uninterrupted views overlooking the Langsett moors and Underbank reservoir . The lounge, bedroom and bathroom are all of a good size with 32" TVs in both the lounge and bedroom. The en suite bathroom has large shower cubicle plus good size bath and the water pressure is good and hot for showers and baths. Outside there is a pleasant seating area amidst a profusion of colourful plants with lovely views over the gardens and distant hills. Overall this is a we'll catered for cottage with everything a couple would need for a good holiday. The internet connection is a little hit and miss but we have yet to find a cottage in a rural area with good coverage. Terry, Meg and Willow ( the Welsh Springer). Formally of Barnsley now in retirement near Filey.

- Margaret B, April 2017
Mrs Alldritt February 2017

“We had a really lovely time.”

The cottage was so cosy and welcoming, tea,scones and home made jam on arrival was a lovely personal touch. We felt very relaxed while we were there which is exactly want we wanted and lovely walks for us and our dogs.

- Mrs Alldritt, February 2017
Mrs Parker January 2017

“This was our third stay at Underbank Cottage.”

Being very convenient for our visits to family and friends the beautiful surroundings are an added bonus to the comfortable accommodation.

- Mrs Parker, January 2017
Xxpgsis November 2016

“Brilliant”

Who would go to Barnsley for a holiday? With accommodation like this, anyone might. The cottage was immaculate and comfortable, and the location a hidden gem. With a little internet research you can find lots of good walking in the neighborhood, through fields and woodland to open moor. In less than an hour's drive you can be in pretty much any tourist destination in the northern end of the Peak District, from Bakewell to Edale. This means you can have a national park vacation at a fraction of the cost of renting inside the Park. The cottage was ideal for us to attend a nearby wedding and make family visits in South Yorkshire as well as providing a cozy base for a country vacation.

- Xxpgsis, November 2016
Mr Fullelove September 2016

“Tasteful, tranquil, great atmosphere and ambience of a period cottage.”

Super location and general facilities. Obliging pleasant hosts. Hard to fault.

“2nd Visit”

We stayed here a few years ago in the winter and we were very comfortable. Our second stay in spring was just as good as the first. Outside was a riot of spring colour and was beautiful, plenty of pots and troughs and borders packed with plants. The scones, jam etc was a nice touch and we enjoyed them after a long journey. Though the cottage is small it has everything you need and is a great base to stay. It has comfortable furnishings and a nice big bed and shower cubicle. We parked the car for 3 days and walked the local area as there are many nearby which we managed despite the weather. The Stockbridge walking website has lots of walks that are printable with very good directions. Our only downside this time was the the internet was very erratic and not available a lot of the time but as we were there only 3 days it was not a major problem but we did report it before we left.

- Stephanie S, May 2016
Mrs Parker April 2016

“We very much enjoyed the tranquil location of the cottage, the convenient parking space and the beautiful gardens.”

The cottage was well equipped, clean and tidy.

“Relaxation Paradise”

My girlfriend and I needed a break from the London area and so booked a week at Underbank Hall Cottage from a Friday to a Friday. We drove up on the Friday night and only arrived at about midnight to find a beautiful stone cottage wonderfully appointed. There were fresh scones with butter and home-made jam and a tea tray laid out for us. We forwent those and cracked open a bottle of wine, turned on the electric 'wood-burning' stove and allowed the peacefulness to wash over us. The following day, after a night spent in a very comfortable bed, we got to explore the cottage. It has everything that one could want: fitted kitchen with fridge (and small freezer shelf), dishwasher, quality matching crockery, glasses and flatware, microwave, gas cooker, washer/dryer combo. All of this in a lovely downstairs room. Upstairs is a huge bedroom with armoire with real hangers and a fantastic bathroom with deep tub and a huge separate shower unit with great pressure. We met the owner who said we were younger than most of her guests (we are mid 40s) and she invited us to wander the grounds which are manicured and beautiful. The cottage is next to the main house but you wouldn't know it and we felt completely alone and peaceful. We really couldn't be happier with our choice. We visited Stocksbridge once and found it a bit dismal but Penistone is about 3 miles in the other direction and is a delightful village with a lovely bistro (with great vegetarian options) and a couple of nice pubs. Ye Olde Mustard Pot is also recommended. There was nothing not to like about this place. Very highly recommended.

Miss Durrant October 2015

- Miss Durrant, October 2015
Mr Coles October 2015

“We couldn't have been happier with our week at Underbank Hall Cottage.”

It has been finished to the highest standards and comes with everything you might need. The kitchen and bathroom are finished extremely well. The bathroom has a very deep soaker tub and a large separate shower unit with excellent water pressure. This really is a prime property and we will undoubtedly be back.

“Excellent holiday cottage”

I have just returned from a wonderful stay at Underbank Cottage. The cottage is situated in the beautiful grounds of Underbank Hall, which features a walled garden and woodland along with beautifully tended lawns and flowerbeds. The cottage is delightfully furnished and well equipped with everything you may need during your stay. Car parking is just a few yards away. The owners had even provided scones and jam and a vase of sweet peas for our arrival. The area is lovely with lots of stunning views and lots of reservoirs and countryside nearby providing scenic walks. I absolutely loved this cottage and will definitely be returning.

“Best Holiday Cottage I've Stayed At in Over 20 Years”

This cottage was perfect, clean, tidy, had everything you needed, bed so comfortable and the homemade scones were to die for. Just me and the dog, a little noise from the garden (distant traffic) but once in the house so peaceful. Would recommend this cottage to all my friends and family and if I was ever in the area again would want to stay here.

“Beautiful location, excellent bed!”

We had a wonderful week in this amazing cottage. Since previous reviews mentioned the cottage was right next to the hall, I did not expect the location to be this perfect.

“Perfect cottage, perfect situation”

owners very helpful and told me all about the history of the hall, very interesting. Cottage was very high standard and exceptionally comfortable. I've never slept in a better bed!!! Ideal for doggie people - lovely walks from doorstep and only a few mins drive to a lovely reservoir walk. Worth taking a trip to Ladybower and Castleton too. Beautful views from patio area. Although cottage is right next to hall this was not a problem at all. All windows overlook gardens and views.

A perfectly equipped, peaceful holiday cottage that is very well maintained, clean and in a pretty garden setting. Owners might live next door but they are utterly unobtrusive. The price was very reasonable. Great for a romantic getaway with good heating, comfortable bed and furnishings.

“A week to re charge the batteries”

A fantastic relaxing week spent in a lovely cottage that was well decorated and well equiped for your every day needs. On arrival we was shocked to find the cottage was next door to the main house, but this in no way took away our privacy. The owners were so helpfull with local knowledge. The area there is so unspoilt with many beautiful walks and quiant pubs.

“The cottage is a beautiful stone building that abuts the owners' residence.”

We met the owners on arrival and bumped into them a few days into our week long stay, so privacy wasn't an issue. The cottage more than met our expectations. It was very clean, well appointed and warm. Views were beautiful from all of the windows. TV and wifi reception were excellent. We were unable to enjoy the local walks due to family reasons but from what we could see they would be more than enough reason to come to Underbank. Lovely, we'll be back - from Australia!

“We particularly enjoyed the peacefulness of the location and how effective it was for creating a restful break.”

Attention to detail and special touches provided by the owners e.g. fresh cut flowers in vase on arrival and fresh raspberries from the garden made an impact and were highly appreciated.
