Love, love, LOVE this place! So cosy. Stu lit the fire for us before our arrival. The property was well kitted out. Candles, blankets and wonderful smells! Lots of games in the property! And OMG the dogs!!! Perfect, sweet, cuddly babies!! Don’t be deterred if they bark, they’re sweet hearts!

Nothing it’s perfect!

A lovely spot in the heart of the countryside with great views yet easy access to Leek and other local amenities. The Old Stable has everything you might need for a comfortable stay and although it is only a few hundred yards from the main Buxton road, you could be forgiven for thinking you were in the middle of nowhere. Hosts are friendly, as are the dogs and cattle.

A longer stay would have been nice!

Everything was good.

Werent sure about the dogs in the farm yard but they were no trouble at all

Clean, great location and well furnished

There are four dogs that sleep outside the premises. Nb. They are friendly with people. But it was very difficult using the property to its fullest potential with our dogs - the pack of 4 dogs would come barking all the way to our car (one quite aggressively), so to avoid any dog reactivity, we never left on foot with our dogs and put them straight into our car, even for short dog walks. This did put a bit of a damper on our stay, so is worth noting if you too are coming with dogs, as we weren’t comfortable even using the enclosed small courtyard with them always hovering. Shame as the weather was on our side that weekend too!

Everything, full of character and lovely location. Very comfortable beds

Nothing

Clean, tastefully decorated and furnished, fire lovely, fantastic beams especially master bedroom and landing

Arrived and unloaded in dark because no light left on. Only one bath towel and one hand towel for 2 people. Needs additional heaters in bedrooms as no heat unless main fire is lit. Log burner needs a service as burns far too hot or not at all. We are familiar with log burners. Microwave and teapot would be useful. We stayed master bedroom which would benefit from a bedside light on both sides. Master bed should have dressing table. Bedding not good enough quality for the price. Would make a better experience to have a few books, maps, games in all the empty drawers. 10am checkout a bit early. Most are 11am. We enjoyed our stay but feel that a little attention to detail would have made it so much better.

Lovely farm setting. Comfortable and very well equipped cottage. Great location for Alton Towers and other nearby attractions. WiFi brilliant with access to Netflix and other streaming services. Our girls absolutely loved the friendly dogs who greeted us on arrival. We also enjoyed seeing the cows.

Everything was wonderful. I just struggled to get the water the correct temperature sometimes.

Absolutely loved everything about this cottage! Rosie, Stu and family were so welcoming, it was a real pleasure talking to them. The location was superb, just minutes from The Roaches (for walking) and 10 min to the centre of Leek (for shopping) - we found the whole area so relaxing and the people very friendly! Plenty of room for parking and excellent walks through farmland, it was great being on a working farm, and those three retrievers, there could be a whole review on them! The cottage was amazing, really large, and every comfort provided for and so well equipped. It was lovely sat out in the evening and our own dog was very relaxed throughout our stay. Many thanks.
