Green Barn

A very friendly and helpful welcome from Simon to Green Barn.

We had requested a high chair which was available on arrival. Living area is well designed and bedroom accommodation excellent for 6 adults and a baby. Our dogs also enjoyed the stay. Hot tub and views were excellent. Great location for local walks and close to good pubs. Would definitely recommend Green Barn for anyone looking for a quiet stay in the Peak District.

This is a case where what is shown on the site did not fully reflect what we experienced on arrival.

Locating the property was simple until reaching the lane, as the sign mentioned in the directions is not visible from the road. We had to stop, get out, and look around to locate it. At the front of the barn there were weeds, including one growing through the outdoor furniture, and a mat that was very worn. There was no welcome pack or instructions on how things work, including the TV remote. There were several areas where maintenance could be improved, including light switches with broken knobs, a toilet door catching on the floor, and swivel stools around the main island making a noticeable noise when turned. The sofa lacked padding and was worn, with debris in the seams. There was a small white occasional table which had not been cleaned, and overall the property would benefit from a more thorough clean. It should be noted that the staircase may not be suitable for those with mobility issues. The lighting had a delay between operating the switch and the light coming on, and the bathroom lighting was limited. We did not use the hot tub as it required a walk across the car park to access it. On a positive note, there are several good pubs and coffee shops in the area, and places of interest within 15 to 25 miles. We were disappointed with this accommodation as it did not fully meet our expectations based on the listing.

Lovely stay in Green Barn.

Peaceful area with fabulous views. Simon was extremely helpful throughout & hugely considerate with the work being carried out nearby. Margot, his four legged friend was also a fabulous welcoming committee & a delight throughout our stay. We wanted to dog nap her when we left

Beautiful barn conversion with everything you need for a peaceful week away Owner was on hand to greet us when we arrived and showed us round the property explaining how everything worked (heating/lighting/kitchen appliances etc) and was also available if we had any issues (we didn't).

Beautiful property, great living/entertaining space. Comfortable and sizeable bedrooms. The barn really is airtight, we stayed whilst in the minus figures outside and lodge was always warm and cozy without putting heating on to often. Lots of pubs/restaurants within a mile or 2. The Pheasant was great in the village, great food amd service. Beautiful views, great hot tub and well maintained. We're looking to book again this year! Thank you Simon for looking after us.x

Stayed at both cottages over Christmas and had a great time.

They were really well decorated which was great to see and much appreciated...thanks for making it special. Awesome views from the hot tub and lots of facilities close by if needed

We were looking for a quiet and relaxing week away from it all and this was the ideal place for that.

The cottage had all we needed and was very comfortable. Many thanks to Simon.

Green Barn itself was good: well equipped, comfortable and spacious.

The drawback is the shared garden, especially when your neighbour lets his dog out unsupervised and does not clear up his mess! Yorkshire was lovely.

Amazing barn conversion in a great spot…wonderful views but close to Sheffield too.

Host was really friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. We really enjoyed the hot tub with views of the countryside. We would love to come back.

The house is lovely and a little quirky which was great but there is a second rental on the property which you share the outside space with which for us was not ideal and I feel should have been made clear in the property details.

The garden needs some attention as there are a lot of weeds and it kind of ruins the outside space.

Stay was amazing from start to finish!

Host was very friendly and welcoming! Gave recommendations for everything we had questions for. The accommodation was lovely and cozy, couldn’t recommend enough!

Barn was lovely and spacious and we had beautiful weather so made the most of the outside seating.

However, the property could do with a serious deep clean, the en suite shower (wet room) leaked into the kitchen below so after using it once and realising this we no longer used it ! The hot tub needs emptying and cleaning (all dirty around the rim) and then refilling. The outside area is big with amazing views but quite scruffy and is desperate for some tlc. This place could be amazing but unfortunately at the moment it’s really lacking and at £1000 for the weekend felt let down.

Lovely stay in a beautiful location.

Green Barn is comfortable, spacious and well appointed. Hard to fault, everything was there that we needed. Maybe add a Nespresso Machiine? Views are nice, place is dog friendly. Hot tub was glorious but the lid is heavy (needs 2 people to move it) and it does show some signs of age. That did not stop our enjoyment of it. Waitrose Delivery was good but not all drivers can find the property easily. Helps to use "What3Words" device.doctor.degree

The property was superb and we loved the quirky touches such as the personalised bum warmer radiator and the great staircase along with all the unique features that had been incorporated into the conversion.

The hot tub was large and had great views and there was plenty of outside space and seating for alfresco dining. All in all we had a fabulous stay thank you !

Great place with a fabulous host who was there to great us and looked after us during our stay

Green Barn is a beautiful conversion in a lovely location.

Unfortunately, we struggled with the cleanliness of the property. The oven and microwave hadn't been cleaned for a long time, furniture not moved with food bits etc still under sofas. Previous occupants had obviously had a 30th celebration at the barn which balloons remained, burst and full, not ideal with our dog. In the end our youngest found entertainment writing in the dust. We also had to rewash the pillow cases as dog hair was ingrained in the cases, I know pets are allowed but this was a bit much even from a dog owner. Unfortunately, all of this did take away from what could be an absolutely beautiful barn/ break if the issues were addressed.

Green Barn was excellent in every respect and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very clean, warm and welcoming, the Cottage was in a great location. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub and are so grateful to the hosts for the lovely Christmas decorations. We’ll definitely be returning.

After staying here before and coming back again with friends, we loved our Christmas stay and especially loved the extra touch with the Christmas tree and decorations!

Bedrooms really comfy. Nice pubs in the village and not a long walk to and from, although be prepared for a hilly walk back! The en suite in the main bedroom had a smell we noticed coming from the drain every time we used the shower. And it would be brilliant if the hot tub had some form of shelter and a better light as it was very dark and slippy out there at night. Other than that we will definitely come back.

We had an unexpected visit to green barn after our planned trip cancelled on me at short notice.

Got to say Sykes cottages were not overly helpful in finding an alternative. So with much searching Green Barn was found. Lovely property in a beautiful location. The house was lovely and warm, clean and comfortable ( sofa wasn’t the best) great hot tub , great host and the people in the village were are really welcoming. A great last minute trip.

We had a great week stay in this property, great base for sightseeing the area, the views are fantastic.

Bedrooms are comfortable, the only issue we had was no wardrobes and cupboards so no where to put clothes, there was a pipe with hangers so bear this I mind when you visit, would be good to have a broom or small hoover to keep the areas clean to help after a day out and about also for the end of the period, also a visitor folder with details of the property and instructions of items e,g hot tub, lighting and local amenities and end of rental details. But besides that it's a great cottage and a great host too, so many thanks once again

We had a great week.

The barn was comfortable and well presented with stunning views and the owner, Simon, was very helpful

Fantastic holiday.

The Green Barn was all we hoped for. Hot tub a nice touch too. Spacious and well presented. Only thing to improve wilth the property would be storage for clothes in the bedrooms. It is none existant so have to live out of a suitcase.

Lovely property & location.

Food at The Pheasant in the village was exceptional - thanks for recommending Simon. There is not enough storage in bedrooms for clothes - like a chest of drawers so we had to keep in suitcase. We would stay here again.

Great stay - very quiet and relaxing but close enough for any trips back for shopping

Had a lovely time exploring around the area.

Beautiful barn conversion cottage - comfy beds - lots of hot water and good showers - great size kitchen and living area - very dog friendly and only 15-20 minutes into Sheffield where our kids are at Uni Good walks from doorstep and super dog friendly cottage with stone floors all downstairs We visited Wentworth House whilst there and the Yorkshire Sculpture Park (both 30 mins)

We had a fabulous stay at the barn over new year.

What a great conversion.....many original features with high quality fixtures and fittings and a superb view. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub....a little pagoda with some lights would be perfect in providing a little bit of wind protection. The downstairs shower perfect after a muddy dog walk and we raved about the 'pipe radiator ' in the great communal space which we took full advantage of! Our only comment would be a bit of a cozy squeeze on the sofa for 6 adults

It was a great stay!

We had a very well deserved rest at the barn we was blown away with how beautiful it was.

Everything was there that you needed only thing missing was a first aid kit. Will definitely recommend to friends and im sure we will be back to visit again

We had a lovely few days at Greenbarn.

We thought storm babete would stop us using the hot tub but luckily the weather brightened & we managed to use it several times. The barn is a lovely size for a group of 6, plenty of room & facilities were excellent. Would recommend

What a fab place Green Barn is.

The owner Simon is very friendly and helpful. It is a stunning conversion that is very tastefully decorated and furnished. It definitely has plenty of kitchen equipment and utensils. Stunning views and a great hot tub!

A lovely cottage, loads of space, a couple of minor issues dealt with immediately.

Highly recommended

Very well equipped and tastefully fitted out barn conversion.

This is located in an extremely quiet hamlet just outside Oughtibridge. Sheffield is just a 10 minute drive, but if you go the other direction you are presented with miles of open countryside. It’s a great location. Oughtibridge has a number of pubs and takeaways ( I recommend The Pheasant) Going back to the accommodation, there are some lovely touches. The kitchen is amazing with a massive central island made from railway sleepers. (as are many things around the accommodation. A huge fridge freezer, dishwasher, loads of cutlery and utensils and lots of crockery and glasses. We have been to so many places where there are 4 cups and four plates etc. Not here! Also downstairs is a marvellous utility room with loads of space for all the muddy shoes, coats etc. Bedrooms are all doubles and beds are extremely comfortable . The master bedroom has an en-suite and huge French windows giving the most amazing view. Minor criticism is that the rooms could do with a bit more storage for clothes. There is a downstairs toilet and shower. Beautiful family bathroom upstairs with twin wash basins and walk in shower. (en suite also has a walk in shower. The showers were excellent though the owner might want to think about fitting a glass screen, as it’s easy to flood the floor. The living area is comfy and has a massive 78 inch smart TV. Everyone loved this. Another feature of this place is all the lighting. There are lights everywhere enabling you to create whatever lighting mood you like. The only problem was knowing which switches to turn on and off/dim. I think I counted 32 light switches downstairs. I think it would be a good idea to label them or do a diagram,! Outside, garden furniture is plentiful with a big outdoor sofa and table set outside the front and another nest to the private hot tub. The hot tub is huge and was very pleasant. It’s a few yards away from the house and when it’s dark could do with a bit of outside lighting, but again a minor issue. The owner , Simon is a great host, very welcoming and always available to contact if you need anything. Plenty of private parking. There is a large lawned area big enough to exercise a dog, which is shared with the other cottage on the same piece of land. Overall, highly recommended .

Green Barn is an excellent newly-created barn conversion, with large open-plan areas downstairs, a well-equipped kitchen, plenty of seating, and places to hang wet clothes and leave muddy boots.

Upstairs there’s a large main bedroom with en-suite, two further doubles which are large and airy, and a superb family bathroom. Outside the seating area overlooks the communal lawn and car park. At the far side of the shared car park area is the hot tub, with great views, but it is quite cut off from the house, and overlooked. There is no practical gate to the outside (quiet) road, and no barriers to the next-door house, so we had to keep our border collie under tight control.

Great place lovely views .

But if you want a hot tube that is private from anybody directly seeing you then this place may not be for you. But I would recommend this place if the hot tube issue is not a problem . The owner has done an excellent job of converting this barn.

We had a lovely week, the cottage is finished to a very high standard - the hot tub is awesome, it comfortably seated 5 of us and looked out onto a beautiful view of rolling hills.

We had several home cooked meals during our stay including a Sunday roast and didn’t want for anything in the beautiful well equipped kitchen. The location is great for access to both the Peak District and Sheffield so with two teens we did a mix of town and country and everyone was happy. We highly recommend the Pheasant pub where we had a lovely walk to, and meal one evening, but be prepared for some moderate hills to climb on your way back if walking into Oughtibridge (we are from perfectly flat East Anglia so the kids had a bit of a shock

Had a fab short break at Green Barn.

The property is gorgeous and provides everything you need. Simon was a great host, answering any queries straight away! Would highly recommend…you won’t be disappointed!

Enjoyed a wonderful stay at this lovely cottage in beautiful countryside.

A very clean well equipped cottage with a great hot tub with a wonderful view. A great place for country walks and village shops and pubs within walking distance. We would visit again

On arrival to Green Barn we were met by the owners, Simon and Amy.

Green Barn was just as listed with amazing views and open countryside. We arrived before 3pm and were shown around and given instructions on using the kitchen appliances and given lots of menus and guidance on where to eat and get take aways. We were amazed at the facilities as soon as we entered the cottage. Bespoke kitchen with a huge central island which was a feature of the downstairs.. very clean and bright with big doors leading out onto a patio. The owners had purchased new luxurious patio furniture and a brand new BBQ was ready for us to enjoy. The 3 bedrooms upstairs were all good sizes. The master had amazing views of the country side through big double doors with a glass Juliet balcony. The en suite was tastefully done with a wet room shower. The 2 other rooms had a main bathroom next to them with a luxurious free standing bath and his and hers sink. Also a wet room room shower to complete the look. A real wow factor! Everything done with great taste and super quality. The beds and pillows were very comfortable with good quality linen. The out door facilities were excellent. Plenty of seating for 6 people and A hot tub to make the weekend relaxing and very chilled. . We went to the local shops and pubs in the village of Oughtibridge and also had a delicious Chinese take away from the Cantonese next to the village store. All of the local people were very friendly. Would definitely recommend Green Barn to everyone. Views to die for! Facilities and accommodation of a very high standard. The owners should be proud of what they have achieved. A big Thank you from The Briers Family.

A fantastic location with stunning views, very comfortable and well appointed.

The owner has clearly put a lot of thought and work into the fittings and fixtures. Excellent local village, with a surprising number of very welcoming and good quality pubs. Particularly enjoyed the pheasant and hare and hounds.

Fabulous stay.

Great location. Cottage is gorgeous with great facilities and everything you could possibly need. Large open plan layout downstairs makes for a wonderful area to relax and enjoy (even on a rainy day with 3 kids of a wide age range). Simon the owner was very friendly and helpful offering advice on local area and amenities. 100% recommend and will return.

Everything needed was there such as towels, cleaning products, toiletries.

Brilliant views and quiet location. Hanging space or drawers needed to put clothes in two of the bedrooms.

We had a great stay!

The cottage was lovely, good location, clean and had everything we needed. Fast WiFi, big TV and all the amenities were high spec and worked perfectly. The heated rail for drying wet walking gear was the best!! Thanks again for a really good stay! The snow did not affect the holiday it made it more fun!

We had an excellent stay.

Simon was helpful and on hand. Good pub recommendations from him. Beautiful location and great views. Plenty of space for 6 adults to relax after the hurleyburley of Christmas. Just a shame the weather didn’t play ball but to be expected in January.
