    6 adults and 2 dogs. The house and grounds where amazing. Everything has been thought. We enjoyed the games room and hot tub daily and the outdoor sitting area is heated so we even got to enjoy it in all weather with the lovely views Couldn't fault the property or the owners and didn't want to come home. What an amazing week

    From the moment you arrive you feel immersed in the countryside, surrounded by space and scenery. All weather outdoor facilities supplement the comfortable interior. Ample space and everything you need for a relaxing break. Decoration is bright and cheerful, a welcome change from the cream and green of some properties. A quiet location but only a short journey to shops, walks and attractions. Host very friendly, meals fantastic.

    The house was beautiful and the views were gorgeous. We made good use of the sauna, hot tub and games room. We were grateful for the cot, high chair and stair gates and for the dog bowls, towels and cover. Our multi-generational family and dog had a great holiday - thank you.

    The family had a wonderful week and so many things to do and lovely places to visit almost on the doorstep. When the weather wasn’t so kind we were more than happy to spend the day at Hollydale and were not short of things to keep us entertained. I could not fault this holiday accommodation and the owners were lovely too. Will look forward to a return visit in the future.

    Good location, just 3 miles for Leek, so convenient to pop to the shops to stock up when we arrived, but at the same time never too far from all the Peaks has to offer. Jo and Giles had thought of everything, from a welcoming bottle of fizz to things like dishwasher and laundry tablets and towels and robes for the sauna and hot tub.

    Hollydale had everything you could wish for and more besides. Either sat in the heated thatched hut or chilled out in the front garden, weather permitting, the views are just perfect, the evening sunset was stunning. Both big and little kids so enjoyed the hot tub, sauna and games room, a great karaoke session was had by all. Everything at Hollydale is first class! The location is ideal for sightseeing, a visit to Rudyard Lake, Thors cave and Coombe Valley nature park and eating out at The Reform Inn and The Lazy Trout can be recommended. Thank you Jo and Giles for helping to make a special family holiday so memorable

  • "We had a fantastic stay at Hollydale in April to celebrate our eldest son’s 30th birthday all together as a family ."

    It was the perfect venue for a family celebration - eight adults and two dogs stayed in complete luxury and comfort. Every bedroom being able to be made into a double or king and having their own beautiful, en suite bathrooms was what sold Hollydale to us in the first place. However, it totally surpassed our expectations. We didn’t need to go anywhere all weekend because there was so much to keep us entertained- so many highlights from the hot tub to the games barn (perfect for 3 grown up sons to rekindle their sibling rivalry and their dad to relive the arcade games of his youth!) to the sauna and heated outdoor area in which to eat, chat and chill. The property has absolutely everything you could possibly need and want (how many places supply a karaoke machine with accompanying wigs?). It is decorated in a quirky but very tasteful style. Jo and Giles were very quick to reply to any queries we had and have thought of anything you might need . Thanks to them for providing the perfect setting for a memorable and very special weekend of family celebrations. We will be back - quite possibly in 2 years time when it’s Son number 2’s turn to celebrate his 30th birthday.

  • "I honestly couldn’t say a bad word about Hollydale barns."

    Immaculate properties in a perfect location managed by amazing hosts! We do these sort of holidays every year and Hollydale has easily been the most impressive. There was nothing we could have wanted or needed whilst there as the hosts had thought of everything. There is also a no expense spared feel to the property’s with high quality fixtures and fittings throughout even following out into the garden with the bbq and the furniture. The location is superb too and we honestly didn’t think the photos did the views justice ( which made for a nice surprise on our arrival ). If you’re looking at staying at Hollydale barns don’t hesitate you will not be disappointed. These properties are a credit to Jo & Giles who clearly give 100% to their business in both maintaining the barns and also as hosts to ensure you have the best holiday possible. Thanks for an amazing stay and we look forward to seeing you next year.

    Booked it for my husband's 70 th birthday. There were 8 of us with 2 dogs. There was plenty of room for us all & the dogs were well catered for with treats, towels and a throw for the furniture. Jo and Giles went above and beyond providing meals - which were plentiful and delicious - and a lovely cake. Even a hiccup with the heating was no trouble for them. On the whole we had no problems and would certainly come again but in the summer to sit in the garden and take in the beautiful views. Please note that when it says steep stairs. They mean steep stairs.! You have been warned. Having conquered them you have your own private retreat. Thank you again for a very memorable time. Joe said it was the best birthday he has ever had. That is a compliment indeed.

  • "Hollydale is an Exceptional property."

    Jo and Giles have thought of everything we might need and their attention to detail really made this a special stay for my family. Visited with 3 adult children and their partners. Everyone had their own en suite facilities which was great. The games room was a huge hit and a welcome relief from the scorching heat we were lucky to have! The sauna was only used a couple of times (because of the weather) but when we did use it we were very pleasantly surprised; the unit was spotlessly clean and heated up to over 90 degrees, just like being at a spa! Our girls cooked up a storm in the beautifully appointed kitchen and we enjoyed ‘al fresco’ dining in the the tiki hut every night. We didn’t need to worry about late night hot tub dips and games room competitions with a lot of chatter, as the facilities were situated so that any noise we made didn’t travel over to neighbouring properties. Although there are two other properties on the site, the layout of all three meant every party had their privacy. Two minor things needed addressing at the property and these were attended literally within ten minutes of letting Giles know. Jo, Giles and daughter-in-law Laura were always available to help but never intrusive. The icing on the cake for me was that after a fabulous family holiday, my husband and I stayed for another few days in Parlour Barn, one of the other two properties on the site, which was stunning; beautifully designed and decorated, with All of the same outdoor facilities. Beautiful views and glorious sunsets to enjoy while sipping a glass of wine (or two). Three days of peace and tranquillity to round off a fabulous holiday. Thank you. We’d love to come back for another visit.

We took our dogs and two teenage sons with us and it was perfect for everyone. We all enjoyed the Games Shack so much, we have stayed in properties with games rooms before, but this was the best we've seen by far. The outdoor dining hut was brilliant and so cosy with the heater on and the hot tub was fantastic, as are the views from everywhere around the house and garden. The boys particularly enjoyed the 'Gnome Room' with the PS4, very quirky and a brilliant idea. The house is very well designed for taking dogs and again lots of nice little touches to help keep your pets safe and comfortable. Our weather was mixed whilst we were there, but whether rain or shine, the house was perfect. I would thoroughly recommend this house to anyone and would suit almost any family or group of friends. We will certainly look to return with friends and family and would also look at renting the barns next door too. The barns and house together would be perfect for a special celebration for a large group.
