• "Had a really lovely weekend in this beautiful cottage."

  Arrived early evening Friday, the cottage was easy to find with the directions of the owners on the email and was in a lovely, quiet, peaceful lane just under 10 minutes from Ashbourne. We was greeted by the owners and given the key - was then left to do our own thing the whole weekend. Cottage was done really nicely and was spacious for just the 2 of us and had a lovely sunny little garden and tables and chairs. I particularly liked that the bed was really comfy, it had lovely soft bed sheets, and provided us with really soft towels! The farm was really quiet and we hardly saw anyone, there was 2 goats opposite our cottage who we thought were really funny and entertaining and you were able to feed them sliced apple! The cottage was also within 20 minutes to Casstington on water, dovedale and the monsal trail which we did whilst there! Wish we had longer, thank you!

• "We had a lovely four nights here and wish it was longer."

  The owners were lovely, close enough if we needed anything but not interfering at all. The Stables had a lovely little garden with a bench that was beautiful to sit out on in the sun and listen to the birds. Cottage was a really good size and had everything we needed and more. Wifi was super. Will definitely return.

  It had a private parking space and a small outside eating and grass area. Ideal for touring the Peak District and surrounding area. Owners were friendly and helpful but not intrusive. Highly recommended.

• "My husband and I have just spent 4 days at The Stables."

  It is a beautiful, modern cottage and was exceptionally clean. Everything we needed in the kitchen was provided (though we didn't use much of it!) and there was plenty of room throughout for the two of us to live comfortably. The owners were friendly, but not intrusive, and it was so peaceful on the farm. Excellent position for exploring the Peak District - we would certainly stay again

• "Just spent an enjoyable short break at the Stables."

  Nothing was too much trouble for the owners. The cottage was very comfortable and contained everything you could need it had all been thought of and was there for you. Although you are on a farm the Stables was a very peaceful place to be. Will definitely be back for another stay.
