• "We have recently stayed in this cottage and had a lovely break away with the family celebrating a special birthday."

  We could not fault anything. It is an amazing cottage with everythIng you need for a few days away. Clean, and comfortable with lovely spacious rooms, and nice to all have their own bathrooms. The kitchen was well equipped with everything needed to prepare meals, in fact we ate in and enjoyed chatting around the large farmhouse table. It was a lovely surprise the flowers and fruit too, thank you. The cottage was lovely and warm with the underfloor heating, and a nice games room for the family to play pool, table tennis and darts on the evenings, and when returning back from days out. Really enjoyed it and would definitely book again. Just a shame the weather was not the best, but it didn’t spoil anything, as the facilities were put to good use. Many thanks. Hope to see you again soon.

• "We had a lovely stay at Spingle Barn."

  Great property and beautiful location. Facilities were great, the only small issue was that the bed was only pushed together to make a double, so found that there was a gap between the mattress that kept falling into during the night, everything else was great!! Beautiful gardens and Outlook. Have already recommended, as its ideal for large family or group gatherings.

• "Excellent, very well-equipped cottage."

  The en-suite rooms are a bonus if a group is staying. Lovely local walks, excellent pub just along the road and the glorious Derbyshire countryside close at hand. What more could you need? Would highly recommend.

  Thank you Kathryn, its nice to hear that you all had a good time. Look forward to meeting you again. Property Owner

• "Very happy with this accomodation."

  We were 3 couples and two young children, so the 4 bedrooms was perfect for us. The children's room was made up as 2 singles as requested. Thankyou. We put the children and their parents on the ground floor, so they had their own self contained wing of the building. It would have been good to see a floor plan with the details, so that this could have been planned easier. Instead I had to scrutinse the details to deduce the layout. Anyway, it worked really well. One minor point was there was nowhere to put our shoes, so we had a pile of shoes by the door. If a better solution can be found, it would be good. Another minor point was the extra adjustable chair in the living room didn't really fit. The space would look better without it I think. We reported that the first aid kit needed refilling, and the owner promised to fix this, so not really an issue. We were lucky with the weather, so appreciated and enjoyed the outside spaces with the children and just for adults later in the evening. We didn't use the games room, as the weather was so good, but it could do with a tidy I think.. And finally, the location is great. Proximity to pub, cafe, and playground, plus walking straight into Lathkilldae was great, and short drives to lots of lovely Peak District places made it a great holiday. Overall an excellent stay.

  Hello Andy thank you for your feedback, first aid kit and games room have been sorted out. We look forward to seeing you here again. Property Owner

  The weather was beautiful and we were able to fully enjoy the beautiful outside space with its many sitting/ eating areas. The menfolk appreciated the games room, all in all, we had a lovely family weekend celebrating Grannie’s birthday.

  I.m very pleased that Granny enjoyed her weekend and you were able to take advantage of the outside areas. Hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

• "The property, ambience& location is beautiful."

  Thoughtful touches were much appreciated. The photos don’t do it justice, I think they could be improved to the owners advantage. I was disappointed with cleanliness of specific areas, & some of the facilities, I will share this separately with the owner. On the plus side the kitchen is well stocked with crockery/utensils/pots/pans etc. The dining room table is a great size & the lounge seating is very comfortable. Bed linen & towels plentiful & the heating very effective. Sadly due to the weather we didn’t utilise the outside seating but I can imagine it being very pleasant in warmer times. Large parking area & secure outside area for dogs. For our party of 5 adults, an infant & 2 dogs it worked very well.

  Dear Caroline Thank you for your wonderful review, it’s always good to hear such great words and it reassures us that we are going in the right direction with Spingle Barn. Thanks for pointing out that the ladies needed to check under the beds a bit more, we have had a word with them and they are on the case. We hope that you will return to us at Spingle Barn in the future. Property Owner

  We book a large cottage last weekend of every January for a get together and poker weekend, with a nice walk and pubs thrown into the mix. Spingle Barn was the perfect accommodation. The pictures don't do this place justice. Great communal space and games room, very comfy beds. Excellent facilities. In an area of outstandingly beauty.

  We were not disappointed. It was so well equipped and extremely homely. The outdoor area would be such a great place to hang out in warmer months. The added single beds were a real bonus as most of our group were single so it made the sleeping arrangements much easier to sort out. We would definitely recommend this barn accommodation and hope that one day we can return.

• "This was our second stay, prompted by each bedroom having it’s own ensuite facilities and plenty of seating in the dining and sitting areas."

  There is spacious parking and we’ll kept gardens at the front of the property. Monyash is well placed for walking adventures but also only a short drive to Buxton, Bakewell, Chatsworth and so on, not forgetting a short walk to the pub! Spingle Barn is a well maintained and comfortable property for a family or friends group and the owners welcome pack was well received by us all.

  nearest Dr., dentist, A&E, petrol station, shop, etc. Owners of property did not contact us at all during our stay

  Dear mr Newberry we are so pleased that Spingle Barn met your expectations. We just wanted to mention, we went in to look for the customer information regarding dentists, a&e etc, apologies previous guests had unclipped it from the guest information and had left it in one of the drawers on the landing by the telephone. Sorry it had not been put back in the guest information file where it should live. Might we also mention we provide a 24" touch screen computer with high speed broadband so guests can access the internet for any other information they require. Sorry we didn't come round to see you we are unsure what the best method is, most people like to be left in peace and quiet to enjoy their holiday and we are only a text or an email away if ever needed.

• "Keys were not there when we arrived tired and owner was a bit curt on the phone but quickly sorted it out."

  Property lacked an airer which would have been helpful for drying clothes but otherwise the utility/ games room was great. The cottage was fantastic for all our family and we had a wonderful time. We appreciated the fruit bowl and muffins on arrival too.

  Thank you for the great score and feedback. Apologies that the keys were not where they should have been when you arrived. One of the ladies helping us that day left in a bit of a rush because of a family emergency and got the keys jumbled. Connected to the guest bathroom on the ground floor Spingle has a wonderful underfloor heated drying room. There are hooks to dry both wet coats and hiking boots. In the games room there is also a super sized Grundig heat pump tumble dryer. Property Owner

  After setting up my account I was prompted every step of the way. The property was a joy and great for large groups. The property was spacious and modern but this did not detract from the authentic barn atmosphere. Although we didn't meet the owner until the end of our stay, we were delighted to receive the home made cake, fruit bowl, wine and milk in the property. The property was a delight and I think the owners had thought of everything to make sure you had a comfortable stay. We had much fun using 'Alexa.' The property was in a great location for discovering the surrounding area. There was only one negative. The bathroom extractor fans started up everytime you walked into the bathroom and did not turn off for 5 mins. Whilst I appreciate the importance of these, it would be great to be able to turn them off at night. Despite this, we would be really happy to return, particularly as the owner promises there will soon be a games room.

• "Spingle Barn is well located and appointed for families and friends (including dogs who liked being able to stretch their legs in reasonably enclosed garden)."

  We have stayed in numerous cottages that sleep 6 or more, but none (like SB) that allow a group of adults all the facilities and room they need for a really comfortable stay whatever the weather. Having adequate cutlery, crockery, cookware and glasses for a large group (with dishwasher and appropriately sized fridge and freezer) is simple, but something so many facilities forget. SB had more than provided for these. Local pub friendly with good food and takes dogs in public bar. Good walks on your doorstep and lovely towns nearby. We were all very happy and comfortable in the barn and in lovely area.

• "The location was great, but that was the only positive."

  Definitely not a 5 tick property as Sykes advertise. I found the living area to be on the small size for 8 adults and a 3 and 1 year old, and it’s not suitable for toddlers. We had to clean the kitchen (mouldy lettuce found in the cupboard, cobwebs on the walls, grease behind the hob) and hoover the rug in the living area. The automatic lights in the bathrooms were rather annoying - stayed on for 5 minutes after leaving so not the best for night time convenience, this kept waking my little boy up as he was sharing a room with us. We also couldn’t cook our full Christmas dinner as the oven was rubbish and only had two shelves, not what you would expect for a rental of this size. We have been on many self catering holidays, and were very disappointed with this one, particularly with the cleanliness and the price we paid for it.

  Many thanks for your valuable feedback, we are very disappointed that one of our properties has seemingly let us down and not provided you with the experience that we had hoped for. We have contacted the owner to ensure the issues are rectified. Property Owner

  The quality of furnishings and equipment in the barn were of exceptional quality and we really appreciated the nice gesture of the "Easter Welcome Pack" and the beautiful flower displays. Despite snow and rain we ventured out every day and then returned to a warm log fire and a very comfortable holiday home. Monyash is a lovely village with a very welcoming public house, a lovely cafe, a play park and lots of areas to explore with links to its history. It is well placed for visits to Chatsworth, beautiful Bakewell, Matlock Bath, to name a few, and to venture on a variety of walks across the breath-taking countryside. We certainly enjoyed our week at Spingle Barn and hope to return there again. It was the perfect place for my family to meet up and celebrate three birthdays and Easter.
