Great location, helpful hosts. Property a little tired in parts with upgrades an ongoing process. Some areas need early attention and a welcome pack of essentials, which we would happily pay for, would be useful. Adding WiFi would also be great.

Really enjoyed staying here. So much space and the outdoor space in particular was perfect for us to play games. Plenty of kitchen utilities etc.

We stayed here 12-15 July 2019 as a group of 20 lads. This cottage was perfect for us as it included a games room with a snooker and pool table, and tennis court (shared but was only used by us that weekend), and large lawn area for outdoor games such as football and cricket.
The management/owners were easy to deal with. We had no problems getting back our deposit at checkout after inspections.
Improvements:
- some decor abit dated but this was not really an issue for us, just a minor suggestion.
- maybe consider a shelter for bbq area incase of unexpected poor weather.
- only Freeview TV channels available and were lagging a lot.
- consider Wifi.
Only negative were the pesky midges outdoors! Bring insect repellant if staying here.
Overall, this place was just right for our group type. We will be back at some point in the future. It would be great to see a hot tub next time!

We hired Stenson Hill Farm for our annual large group holiday and were impressed.
We hired Stenson Hill Farm for our annual large group holiday and were impressed. We are 5 families with 9 adults and 8 children and 1 dog.
The bedrooms and bathrooms were adequate in number. The bedrooms are large and comfortable. The water pressure of the showers could be improved.
The kitchen is large with two tables and chairs, there is an additional large dining table in the conservatory, which was great to seat all. The sitting room is huge with comfortable sofas and a very large fireplace. The games room was a hit with children and adults.
The outside space is brilliant, a well kept lawn areas where we could play rounders and the dog had he freedom to run around safely as it is not near any main roads of other farms.
We drove a short distance to Markeaton park which is situated in nice surroundings, which has a boating lake and high wire activity that the children enjoyed. We also enjoyed brunch at a lovely pub on the canal called 'the malt shovel'
The manager is highly attentive and professional. I would recommend this venue.

Great place for a large family gathering.
Great place for a large family gathering. Lots of different rooms. Lovely outside areas- tennis court, large garden but not sure if this would be shared if they were people renting next door. Ample parking. Pub short walk away and lovely canal walks.
Caretaker readily available for any queries.
Only comment is that dishwasher in kitchen didn’t work however there is another in the utility and even though there are two cookers they are both very old and tricky to work as all markings had worn off.
Overall we had a fantastic weekend and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
