  We are just back from a lovely week in Chestnuts Barn and would highly recommend this property.

  The cottage is a cosey barn conversion with all the comforts of home. The kitchen is well equipped the living room comfortable with a good sized smart TV. The WiFi and mobile reception (O2) are also both excellent. Holbrook has lots to offer both in terms of the two local pubs, a friendly tearoom, a small shop and lots of good walking straight from the door. For anyone worried, having read about the parking, I have a Land Rover Discovery Sport and was able to park this without difficulty, although anything bigger might be a challenge! Within a short drive there is much more to be found, The southern end White Peak is about 20 minutes away by car and Bakewell about 45 minutes. We booked on to the Denby Pottery factory tour (10 minutes away) which was a good option for a damp day. Also worthy of a mention is Barry Fitch butchers shop in Little Eaton (1.5 miles away). The Fitch family farm locally and take great pride in selling the best of their produce in the shop along with a popular range of filled cobs and much, much more! We are already looking forward to our next visit!

  This is our second stay at Chestnuts Barn and I'd be surprised if it's our last.

  It is positioned beautifully, and is a fantastic little cottage excellently laid out for our usage with two bedrooms and a toilet downstairs, the living room, kitchen, and shower room being upstairs. This means if you struggle with stairs you can flop down in the (very comfortable) bed without having to struggle climbing. The landlords are very welcoming, patient, and friendly, but give you space to enjoy your holiday rather than checking in every day, but will answer any problem you have even around Christmas. They're also very responsive to feedback about the property and how to make it more comfortable or easier to use, and have been very accommodating. We will be back!

  We awarded 3 stars out of five.

  The hot water was not available all day so for washing up one needed to boil up ketles. The heating times came on too late and went off too late . The utensils and equipement in the kitchen were lacking , no large spoons for servings, scales not working, etc etc. the oven needed a good clean .There was a leaky roof in the consveratory. However the rooms were clean and tidy with a good TV. We would have expected someone to check early in our stay if all was Ok as we have experienced in other holiday lets. To us one of the best features of the property was the frequent bus service from the bus stop at the end of the drive not mentioned at all in the property details.

  A lovely family weekend break.

  We were extremely lucky with the weather, 32 degrees! It would have been helpful to have a small freezer compartment in the fridge for our ice lollies though. The host left us a lovely welcome hamper too with a beautiful fresh cake! Great facilities and location. Lots of leaflets/walking guides etc to help us and a lovely spacious living room upstairs. Great idea to have the bedrooms downstairs as it was much cooler at night so we weren’t too hot when it came to sleeping. Thanks again for a brilliant stay! The Peaks is beautiful!

  Excellent cottage in a lovely location!

  The accommodation had everything we needed as a family which included a 10 year old boy and a small pooch. The village itself (Holbrook) was busy with some fast cars driving through but had an amazing pub (Spotted Cow), lovely café (Spotted Calf) and a very handy shop. There were lots of lovely places to visit within the area, loads of amazing walks from the cottage and plenty of local pubs serving the most fantastic food. We had a fantastic week at Chestnuts Barn, would definitely return and would highly recommend a visit!!
