Mrs Buckley
April 2021

“The cottage was beautifully furnished and had everything one could need.”

The kitchen was well presented and equipment modern. The owner was very welcoming and met me on arrival, which was a lovely touch. As the owners were on site, it felt safe and secure and I can thoroughly recommend for anyone on their own. There was plenty of outdoor space and the swing seat with a beautiful view was my particular favourite. Lots of trails and places of interest, great food and the Derbyshire people I met were friendly and helpful.

“We had a brilliant time staying at the Calf Shed.”

Wendy was super friendly, making us feel very welcome and checking we have everything we would need. We especially enjoyed the fresh eggs from her chickens! Even though the space is small, it has everything you'd need for a week away, and we were very comfortable and cosy. Beautiful setting for some great walks!

“Lovely little cottage.”

Although was much smaller than we expected and photos are deceptive. There isnt really any living area just a small two seater sofa in the kitchen. Could do with them being reclincers to put your feet up.ok for long weekend but alittle too small for a week stay. That said its was lovely and would return . Wendy the owner was lovely.

The cottage has everything you need for your stay and the welcome gift was much appreciated. The cottage is ideally situated for visiting the Peaks and Moorlands. Wendy our host was wonderful, the free range eggs were delicious and the donkeys were gorgeous. Would definitely recommend

“The cottage was lovely, really clean and well equipped.”

A welcome basket on arrival is an extra special touch. The owner Wendy was very friendly and helpful and excellent communication before arrival too, including how to easily find the property. Big car park (we were in a van) great location for visiting the Peak District and lovely and quiet at the property.

“The calf shed was the perfect break away.”

It’s location is great with lovely views and not to far from surrounding villages and other attractions. It was well equipped and beautifully furnished.

“We had a wonderful break at the calf shed, the perfect location for exploring the Peak District.”

The calf shed itself was perfect especially in a cold and rainy November, it was always warm and our hosts were very welcoming. There is a drying room separate to the accommodation for walking boots and coats which was a great addition. Perfect for dogs too, out Springer spaniel had a lovely week :) xx

“Small, but perfectly equipped cottage, set in farm courtyard, wonderfully planted with shrubs roses and flowers.”

Lots of outdoor seating, great for outdoor meals. Delightful rural area, lots wild flowers and birds and no telephone signal, Cottage wi-fi has excellent strong signal, so you can stay in touch.

“We had a very relaxing stay at Holmes Farm.”

The cottage was equipped with everything you need. Very modern and spotlessly clean. The owners are lovely people and have worked very hard to make sure everything except your food is available. A small welcome pack was available. We had a lovely experience and look forwards to visiting again with our dog.
