A beautiful property,high quality fixtures and fittings.Spotlessly clean,and very well equipped.The hot tub was a big hit and is bigger than it looks on the photos. There is a lovely 10 minute walk to the reservoir and a nice walk along side it to the Activity Centre. Perfect for our extended family get-together,aged from 3 years to 72. There is plenty of room for everyone to eat,chat and play games together, but also plenty of space for people to sit quietly and read,away from the crowd. A lot of properties to sleep 12 ,have fewer bathrooms,this one has a beautiful bathroom for each bedroom.Very highly recommended,Lisa,the owner replies very promptly to emails and was on hand to advise about the hot tub.

“This property was immaculate with ...”

This property was immaculate with quality fixtures and fittings and the kitchen area was fitted out well beyond our expectations. The hot tub was a bit of a disappointment and we would have valued a bbq more, which was the only real omission to the property. It was on the edge of beautiful walking countryside. We will definitely return.

“Amazing”

I recently stayed at Unsliven with my husband, and it was honestly one of the best cottages we've ever been to. It was immaculately clean, with everything organised so that finding what you need is easy. Everything was ready for us; the hot tub was even lit so we could get straight in. We were met by the owner after we had settled in, who showed us how to light it ourselves - this was very useful as it is log fired. Not only was the cottage beautifully presented, it was done so to a very high standard. The bed linen in particular was excellent quality. It felt like every little detail had been carefully considered to make our stay as pleasant as possible. There was every amenity we could need - including ample parking, a bathroom for each bedroom, a tv in each bedroom, and a games room. The cottage is dog friendly, but as people who don't have dogs we appreciated that this wasn't obvious - there was no dog hair or dog smell. The kitchen was an absolute dream with an abundance of facilities food prep, cooking, and storage - all so clean they looked brand new. We also found the signage around the cottage immensely helpful. Communication with the owner was good, with prompt and polite replies. We also received a pdf before our arrival that laid out clearly all information we would need. Although a bond is required we were reassured by the pdf that as long as we used common sense and respect there would be no need for charges. As it were, our bond was returned in full, on time. We were also refunded for hot tub logs that we didn't use, which was much appreciated. The local area is lovely, very picturesque with nice places to eat, friendly locals, and good real ale pubs. All in all, we were genuinely really pleased with every aspect of our stay at Unsliven, and would highly recommend.

“What can I say about Unsliven ...”

What can I say about Unsliven Bridge Farm other than WOW. The place is amazing with every inch of it finished to such a high standard even the cutlery and glasses were of a high standard. It was beautifully clean and fresh. The hot tub was a great extra. We will definitely be back. You will not be disappointed if you book this place. The owners were really friendly and helpful too. I want to go back now !

“This property was ideal for our ...”

This property was ideal for our family get together. There were 15 of us in the group and it was very spacious. It was immaculately clean, very well equipped, lovely and warm (we had very heavy snow falls during our visit) and the owners were very obliging. The hot tub was extremely efficient and was the highlight of the weekend for the children and some of the adults.

“FAB U LOUS”

We needed a house for 14 people, parents and children of all ages, to stay over the Christmas Period. We arrived on the Friday afternoon before Christmas, located the keys and on entering the building soon realised that we had come to a special place. Everything was clean and tidy, bedrooms spotless, an array of en-suite bathrooms with towels, a kitchen with three dishwashers, three ovens, two sinks two freezer-fridges lost count of the TVs, a play room with TV, Pool Table, and Table Tennis, all with cues bats and balls, fabulous. We met up with Sally, who looks after the place, she was delightful and came back the following morning to demonstrate the outside hot tub. Not only what has been listed but a utility room with freezers, sinks etc which was so useful as a storage facility. We had two Christmas trees lights and things. Great time was had by all I thoroughly recommend this place Sally would tell us that even over the Christmas Period she would be on call any hour of the day. We did not need her help On leaving, my son's car developed a flat battery and that was when Sally played her trump card by providing one of maintenance team with jump plugs. All sorted, all fantastic.

“The property was ideal for a family ...”

The property was ideal for a family group of 14 ranging in age from 2 to 75 with space to occasionally escape to a quiet room We all enjoyed the games room and the hot tub ( even in winter!) Cooking Christmas Dinner was no problem with multiple ovens, hobs, fridges and freezers and a more than adequate supply of pots, pans and tableware and 3 dishwashers (not of the human variety!) The bedrooms and en suites were beautifully appointed with lots of hanging space in the wardrobes and clothes hangers We were there at Christmas and appreciated the 2 fresh trees and decorations provided The staff we met were very pleasant and helpful even to helping with jump leads when a car failed to start

“Family trip”

Absolute fantastic place. Kitted out to high end quality. Nice location. Plenty of parking. We had a party of 14 and we didnt get under each others feet. On first impression cost may sound expensive but broken down between couples it was well worth it for the value.

“This is a high specification ...”

This is a high specification converted barn with excellent facilities. It is beautifully fitted out and the owner has paid a huge amount of attention to detail. The customer service is amazing - the housekeeper popped in during the week in an in-intrusive but helpful way to ensure we were having a special holiday. Just on the edge of the northern end of the Peak District, there are some stunning walks in the surrounding area, some of which are easily accessed within walking distance of the barn itself. Top drawer.

“Very well fitted out with every bit ...”

Very well fitted out with every bit of equipment you could wish for. Clean and tidy and easy to keep clean. Good outdoor space. Ample off road parking. Unfortunately the only pub/restaurant within easy walking distance was closed - (advertised as available to let), so everything we did outwith the property was vehicle dependent.Overall a very good property but the area in general lacked tourist attractions which were less than an hour away by car and pubs/restaurants within walking distance.

“This cottage was beyond our wildest ...”

This cottage was beyond our wildest dreams. It pained us to leave as we frantically tried to think of more and more reasons to come back soon. The house and facilities are stunning and although we had little time we managed a lovely 30min walk through the woodland near the reservoir to Ye Olde Mustard Pot - would highly recommend this pub for food and drink! Lisa was extremely helpful advising about the local area and importantly the wood fired hot tub - which we were barely out of all weekend! Love, love, love this place!

“It was our 50th Wedding Anniversary ...”

It was our 50th Wedding Anniversary and rather than have a party we chose to spend it with our three daughters and their families altogether (15 of us in total) and Unsliven Bridge Farm provided the perfect venue for our family celebration. It totally exceeded our expectations and we thoroughly enjoyed our weekend, even the weather was perfect. Everything about this stunning cottage was first class and would highly recommend to anyone that this cottage is well worth booking.

“Perfect weekend getaway!”

Great property, exceeded expectations. Rooms have all been recently refurbished to a high standard, the linen/ towels feel luxurious just what you'd get at a 5* hotel. The property is well equipped and catered to our large groups needs very well including the dog!. The hot tub is amazing, wood is provided for your arrival and the owners even asked if we wanted it preheating which was a nice touch. Will defiantly be returning next year!!

We visited as a large group of 15 including infants and a dog. The accommodation exceeded expectations, the rooms were all well equipped spacious and clean, the recent refurbishment made it feel like a 5* star resort . The hot tub was amazing and much larger that the picture makes it look. The owners visited as we arrived to check everything was as expected and were only a phone call away if we had question. We're already talking about booking again!!!

“Location was good for what we ...”

Location was good for what we wanted to do (walking, cycling etc) and not too far to travel for visits to places. Accommodation was brilliant and had the wow factor. It had everything you would need but would benefit from having a barbecue in our opinion. The owners have done an extremely good job of renovating the property and I would not hesitate to go back there or recommend it to other people.

The house was lovely, really high spec, plenty of crockery, glassware etc. for our large group. The facilities were excellent, and the owner was easily contactable and incredibly quick to deal with any problems. The location was great for ease of access to local amenities but with a very rural feel. Highly recommended.

“Mr”

Hired the 2 cottages for a family getaway. There was 19 people and 3 dogs. The main cottage was huge with plenty of room, we never felt like we was getting under each other's feet. Plenty of utensils and the owners have thought of everything. The outside area would of been fab if the weather had been kinder. The games room was a big hit and kept everyone entertained. Perfect cottages, lovely weekend, would definitely stay again!

Unsliven Bridge Farm Cottages

These two stunning houses are situated adjacent to the Little Don River, on the edge of the town of Stocksbridge, close to the beautiful Peak District National Park. Both of these properties can be booked separately but present a fabulous opportunity for larger parties and with that in mind the owner has provided extra facilities to cater for up to 22 guests. Originally barns dating back to the 1600s, these superb properties are now luxurious holiday homes that provide an ideal base for families or groups of friends looking to celebrate a special occasion. The attention to detail in both of these welcoming houses are obvious from oak and glass staircases, Porcelanosa tiles and sanitary ware and underfloor heating throughout. Most of the delightful bedrooms have window seats and the both houses offer a glimpse of their past with original beams preserved here and there. To add icing to the cake, the larger property, Unsliven Bridge Farm Cottage has a wonderful hot tub, just perfect for relaxing in after another perfect day. As a base, the area is unbeatable presenting a superb choice of places to visit. Stocksbridge itself has a number of shops and pubs, and from these delightful houses you can access the Peak District National Park for long rambles across breathtaking open countryside, sample some of the country's grandest stately homes by visiting Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall, or you may wish to explore the Last of the Summer Wine Country.
