“Just a massive thank you to the owners of the cottage.”

The place was so cosy and immaculate with small little touches that make it even more special. We had a great week away seeing the sights of the Peak District but also some time to ourselves in times like these. The cottage offered everything you needed during your stay. We loved the hot tub after lots of walking everyday and the Sonos sound was such a great addition! We will definitely be back in the future and we hope everyone enjoys their stay here as much as we did!

“The cow shed is an amazing cottage with all high spec interiors and facilities, you will not want for anything.”

The hot tub was amazing and just what was needed after a long day walking. The cottage is really central and close to many of the peaks tourist attractions and has some lovely walks from the cowshed door step, what more could you need. We has a fabulous stay and would highly recommend the Cowshed.

Mrs Rowson October 2020

“Luxurious by thy name!”

This little gem offered everything you would want in a holiday cottage and more. Just 5 mins off the beaten track and you out in rural heaven, 10 mins back on the road and in a local Inn. The hot tub was the icing on the cake after a day out walking, whilst soaking away your aches you just marvel at the view. Alan and Holly deserve nothing but praise for their hosting. We have booked again for next March as this is the first time I have been able to sleep for a whole week whilst away, the bed was so comfy. Roll on March! Anne and Ron

Mrs Wilson September 2020

“There are times in life when you need to escape from reality and forget about what's going on in the world.”

Our break at Overlea was a balm for the soul. No comprises to make in terms of home comforts, all our needs were met or exceeded. We immersed ourselves in the peace and beauty of the surrounding countryside. We have returned feeling refreshed and rested.

“The cottage is a very high standard regarding cleanliness, comfort and location.”

- Mr Lillie, August 2020
Miss Sugrue July 2020

“The cottage is of an excellent standard in terms of comfort, cleanliness and the facilities provided.”

The hot tub and log fire are added luxuries that we, as a couple, look for in a UK break away but often struggle to find. We both agree that Overlea Cowshed was perfect for our weekend away and we can't wait to visit again! The cottage is in a quiet and peaceful location but only a short drive from the local village. It's a great location for accessing lots of wonderful walks in the High Peak area.

- Miss Sugrue, July 2020
Mr Dale February 2020

Miss Burwell December 2019

“This place is a little piece of paradise!”

Alan and Holly had gone above and beyond to ensure that everything was catered for. We had a little basket of breakfast food waiting for us which was greatly appreciated and Alan was on hand to solve a slight technical hitch with the TV. The cherry on top for me was the gorgeous Christmas tree in the lounge. It really made everything feel cosy and a bit special. I can not recommend this place more highly- it’s beautiful and the perfect place for a peaceful getaway!

- Miss Burwell, December 2019
Miss Williams December 2019

“Absolutely prefect week!”

! Alan and Holly have gone above and beyond as soon as we walked through the door we instantly feel in love. Christmas tree on, music playing, basket of goodies in the kitchen, all the small touches made a difference. The cottage is finished to a high spec with everything you might need, the tv is set up with Netflix and amazon prime for your viewing pleasure, Sonos system linked to Spotify and the log burner all ready set up to light. Highly recommend, would not be disappointed!!!

“Celebration weekend with husband”

Booked this for the weekend before my husband turned 40 for a nice relaxing weekend together. We had been sent the arrival details 2 weeks prior to our stay then were emailed the day before saying we could get into the property at mid day. On arrival we opened the door and was gobsmacked at how highly decorated the venue was. After unpacking our bags we settled down stairs and utilised all facilities from the modern kitchen to the tv including Netflix and amazon prime and surround sound system which was linked to the tv and Spotify on the tablet provided. As well as the hot tub which was utilised both night for numerous hours. On the Saturday we also utilised the log burner which maid for a more romantic and cosy feeling. Thank you for providing such a high spec cottage and we look forward to returning

Mr Benson November 2019

“Perfect in every single way!”

Walked through the door to find that there was a basket of goodies in the kitchen, milk in the fridge, the hot tub up to temperature, the log burner set up and ready to go and super chilled background music. This is hosting done right! One very very minor niggle... the sonos systems could do with renaming to "barn" and "cowshed". I think I might have accidentally given the barn a very short blast of reggae one morning...while I was treated to Frank Sinatra at 1.30am. Again, this isn't a complaint...more advice. We had the perfect stay and cannot wait to come back!

Mr Ricoux November 2019

“It was an amazing weekend break for my partner's birthday.”

The hot tub and log burner was brilliant and we used it everyday. Unfortunately we had to leave a day early, but honestly had a brilliant time. Quiet and perfect area to get to and from towns, walking trails and public buses if needed too. Spent our second to last day walking around the Kinder scout Reservoir and another to Lanttern Pike. Highly recommend come here for a stay :) you will be pleasantly surprised and the hosts are asking and very friendly!

- Mr Ricoux, November 2019
Mr Kelly November 2019

“Loved every minute of our stay.”

Hot tub amazing and so much thought has gone into this building. The owner really has got everything perfect and we really enjoyed our stay. There is so much to do in this area. So glad we chose to stay here. Would highly recommend to anyone needing to get away to consider staying here.

Miss Heritage November 2019

“I booked this accommodation as a surprise for my partners birthday and it certainly did not disappoint.”

We stayed for 2 nights in pure luxury. From the cleanliness to high end furniture/fittings to privacy - it’s got it all! The photos on this site do not do the cottage justice. The small touches that this property has are the icing on the cake. We will most definitely be returning guests.

- Miss Heritage, November 2019
Mr Lee October 2019

“This was first class accomodation, beautifully designed & kitted out with no expense spared.”

It has certainly raised the bar when looking for future holiday cottages to stay in. Hayfield itself is a lovely village with great walks close by, there is a lot to do in the area without having to go far and although the barn feel's rural, you are not far away from towns and cities. Alan was friendly and helpful and clearly cares about his guests needs. All in all, we had a memorable and would happily return.

“What a great little cottage , in a lovely part of the country .”

Great little touches on a arrival , will defo go back . Hopefully will keep up the high standards .

- Mr Jackson, October 2019
Mrs Faulkner October 2019

“Quite simply perfect.”

There have been no corners cut and no expense spared, the end result is a very comfortable fully equipped cottage that I was disappointed to leave!!. The welcome touches were the icing on the cake ...the biscuits were lovely. After a days walking the hot tub was divine lying back soaking away the aches in peace and tranquility what's not to love?. The location is convenient for many walks and attractions. Can recommend Mam Tor, the views are spectacular and Pooles Cavern was so interesting. Will definitely be going back, thanks for a wonderful break.

Chantelle J October 2019

“Perfect relaxing weekend”

Mrs Draper September 2019

“It is very rare that something exceeds my expectations but wow, Overlea Cowshed did just that!”

!! I booked this weekend break as my husband and I very much needed to recharge our batteries after a stressful period in our lives. I actually cried when I opened the door to the cottage as I was overwhelmed by how beautiful it all was. The instant feeling of relaxation was incredible. I know this all sounds over the top but it’s true! The little details did not go unnoticed and were very much appreciated. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. I have no doubt that we will be returning! Thank you.

“We enjoyed our three night stay in the cowshed, the cowshed itself its beautifully decorated and has every household appliance to make your stay as comfortable as possible.”

Big tv, good sound system, kitchen well thought out including dishwasher. Comfortable bed and lovely bathroom. The hot tub was great, very relaxing to sit in. The cowshed is ideal if you want to get away and relax.

About the location

HAYFIELD

Chapel-en-le-Frith 4 miles; Glossop 5 miles; Buxton 8 miles.

The delightful High Peak village of Hayfield is situated in a wonderful rural setting on the north western edge of the Peak National Park. It’s a peaceful little village, popular with walkers who are attracted by its close proximity to Kinder Scout. Serious walkers head east out of the village, up and over the green foothills to the russet expanse of the Kinder Plateau, Pennine Way and Snake Path, whilst families (and those who enjoy more gentle rambles) head west along the beautiful Sett Valley Trail towards New Mills. Edale – an alternative start of the Pennine Way - is only a few miles away. The village caters well for tourists with pubs, cafes and restaurants. Other local attractions include the Goyt Valley, Castleton – with its famous caverns - and the popular spa town of Buxton.
