The Pigsty is a beautiful home away from home which oozes character and soul. It is warm and cosy and scrupulously clean with stunning views across the countryside. The hosts seem to have anticipated your every need within the property and the shower is to die for, probably the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in too. The location is sterling, convenient for Alton towers, the wonderful and unique village of Ashbourne and gorgeous walks and hikes only a stones throw away. The hosts went above and beyond, and we will definitely be returning again. An utter bargain of a stay, if you find a vacancy, be sure to snatch it up, you wont regret it.
Thankyou so so much for our wonderful and welcoming stay.

Great location for exploring the Derbyshire Dales. The property is in a lovely small village. It's very quiet and rural with views of the landscape. The property is nice with attention paid to details and well equipped for a self-catering stay. There is also plenty of information about what one can do in the area (if you haven't done your research). The hosts are friendly and approachable with any questions you may have.
Being really picky - the 24 inch TV with tinny sound wasn't great.

It is in a beautiful location with stunning views over the Weaver Hills.

The property is very well equipped. We didn’t get as far as using the garlic press, playing scrabble or reading a book, but we certainly utilised everything else. Location and view has to be the best thing to be enjoyed about our stay. Waking to a setting moon or rising sun through to settling for an autumnal evening with the peaceful surroundings is superb. The property is immaculately clean, well looked after and is modern in style to be comfortable and has been very well thought out in its layout. The hosts are extremely helpful and welcomed us, a nice warm and human touch.
No causes for concern. We loved it!

The Pigsty is an absolute 5* gem in the Peak District. Beautifully refurbished to a very high standard, stunning, quiet location and Sue and Mark were excellent hosts. The perfect base from which to explore the many delights of the area and the glorious weather was an added bonus! This was our first visit to The Pigsty but won't be our last!
