Guests say
Spingle Barn receives high praise for its spacious, well-equipped accommodation, ideal for families and groups. Guests consistently highlight the beautiful countryside location, comfortable bedrooms, and excellent communal spaces, including a games room and garden. The property is well situated for walks and local amenities, with many appreciating thoughtful touches from the owners. While a few minor maintenance and accessibility issues are noted, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, making it a popular choice for gatherings and relaxing breaks.
Most guests found the property very clean and well presented, with several describing it as spotless. A small number of reviews mention isolated issues such as a stained mattress cover or cushions, but these are exceptions rather than the norm.
The location is frequently described as excellent, with easy access to scenic walks, local pubs, and nearby towns. Guests appreciate the peaceful village setting and proximity to the Peak District's attractions.
Comfort is a standout feature, with guests praising the spacious layout, comfortable beds, underfloor heating, and inviting communal areas. The property is well suited for large groups and families, with plenty of space for everyone.
Facilities are generally rated highly, with a well-equipped kitchen, en-suite bedrooms, games room, and outdoor spaces. Some minor issues are mentioned, such as occasional maintenance needs (e.g., shower temperature, games room repairs, TV signal), but these do not detract significantly from the overall experience.
Many guests mention thoughtful touches such as welcome packs with wine, fruit, and flowers, as well as responsive and accommodating owners. However, it should be noted that such gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

Everywhere clean and tidy and plenty of equipment for cooking and playing games. We had 4 small children and the barn outside was great to keep them out of the sun (or rain, but we didnât have any!) and for doing crafts etc. Good local walks and the playground and pub in the village meant we only used the cars once - to go to the ice cream shop down the road (but just watch out for the queues there!). Owners very responsive if you needed anything. Full marks!

Outside shelter floor unsafe. Cushions on settee smell. Coffee machine didnât work ,hob needs instructions. Downstairs toilet seat very loose , Garden needs a tidy up. We have stopped in numerous holidays with you and this property is no way a gold standard 5 star , it needs to be reviewed. I spent £1500 for 3nights for my family , wonât be using you again please respond. Thanks
