Mike and Karen reached out via email and when we arrived nothing was too much trouble. We hired two of the cottages in early September for a family break and to explore the Peak District. The cottages are beautifully positioned giving you access to places like Bakewell, Chatsworth and Matlock. The cottages are close enough to pubs to stagger back and have loads of great walks from the front door. The cottages are all self contained with parking and are nicely appointed providing you with everything you might need whilst away from home, although I’m pretty sure Mike and Karen would do their best to help if you had a request. We had a really nice time and will visit again, these cottages are a delightful base in one of the most stunning parts of England, with so much to do on your doorstep. We had Tawny Barn Owl and Pigsty, our tip would be to hire the hot tub, very nice in the evening. We have no hesitation in recommending these cottages and look forward to our next stay.

Karen and Mike have managed to make such a difficult time seem to disappear this past week. We couldn’t thank them enough for their hospitality whilst staying in the Tawny Owl Barn. Thankfully, we managed to make an extremely lucky last minute booking here and have loved every single minute. Everything was clean, well presented and had all the necessary amenities. We will absolutely be returning in the future, we fell in love instantly!! Thankyou again, the most beautiful cottage in the most beautiful location Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Very friendly and helpful hosts. The cottage was very traditional and cosy and very clean and well equipped. The many owl features were a lovely touch to "Tawny Owl". The hot tub was very relaxing and the communal store of DVDs and books a very thoughtful idea. Ideal location of walking distance to local pubs , resiviour and woodland walks and a short drive to many other walks and towns. Would highly recommend and would visit again.

The property was very clean, in a great location and the owners were really helpful. We booked the hot tub and I recommend that. It was big and a great hit with the children. We had access to the biggest video library I have seen. We only stayed for 3 days but could happily have stayed for longer if we could.

Very friendly owners. Lovely patio with barbecue and coals included. Paid for use of hot tub which we all enjoyed. Lovely place for our dog and a nice walk to the reservoirs from the property. Lovely weather so didnt stay in much so not sure what we would have done otherwise although there is a store full of books, games and DVDs on site. Would come again  Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Karen and Mike are lovely hosts, very welcoming and responsive to requests. Gave us loads of tips on good places to eat or buy supplies and also great tips on where to visit. Only minor disappointment was that they have recently changed cleaners and there is room for some improvement! Overall we had a great break and would definitely book again. Lovely location loads to do nearby, but don't go to Dovedale at the weekend there are to many people not enough opportunity to social distance we didn't hang around!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this perfectly appointed cottage in an idyllic setting. The cottage has been decorated with lovely attention to detail and is both cosy and modern and perfectly suitable for a weekend of walking and relaxation. The hot tub made my children feel like VIPs.
