  Top Hill Farm Cottage is in a beautiful location and the inside has been presented in a modern way.

  We booked having looked at the photographs on the website but I feel I must warn others that these photos are not up to date and that the presentation and cleanliness of the property is not accurately represented. The outside area especially was extremely disappointing. The hot tub was a health hazard with dirty water, green algae around and filters covered in slime- absolutely incapable of filtering anything. The lid of the hot tub is broken so it lets in rain water. The outside furniture is very tired and the cushions are filthy. There were broken plant pots and old broken furniture left around. The fire pit had not been cleared nor the grass mown as shown in the photographs. The view from the bedroom is countryside but also the building site next door. I take no pleasure in writing this review but I feel compelled to as in its current state it will leave others feeling as bitterly disappointed as we were. I have contacted the owner directly but he hasn’t responded. He has to accept that he needs support to maintain the ‘outstanding’ grade of his property. It is not ‘outstanding’ currently so please book with caution. Additionally, Sykes are impossible to communicate with if you do have a problem. Please read your booking conditions as it seems they have no interest in quality control and ensuring their properties are accurately represented on their website. Who knows what you could arrive at.

  Pheasant Lodge is set in a beautiful woodland, it's a luxury property and the master bedroom is huge!

  The kitchen is very well equipped. Kieron met us and showed us around the property and how to operate the sauna and hot tub. We also used the pizza oven and BBQ, plenty of outdoor seating, a lovely garden and very private & safe with it being the last property at the end of the lane. We were celebrating the 60th wedding anniversary of my parents who are both in their 80's, they found the ground floor bedroom and bathroom easily accessible. Also staying were my daughter and her husband along with my granddaughter of almost 15 months, she was so excited and spent so much time outside. There were 4 generations at the property and it suited us all, I stayed in the shepherd's hut, it was a very comfortable bed, hot water always available and I loved it. The walks to both reservoirs are truly stunning, we saw lots of wildlife and so peaceful. Fox Valley retail park is only 10 mins drive away and has every shop you could need and a beautiful Italian restaurant where the food was delicious. We also had pre-booked Sunday lunch at McGilverays' Wortley Arms, (as recommended by Kieron) the food was excellent, the owners went above and beyond to look after 12 of us (my sisters, niece and partner joined us). We want to thank Kieron for his great hospitality and was easily contactable if we had any requests or issues. I would highly recommend staying here, we all had such a lovely time. Thank you so much

  This detached little cottage has been really sensitively modernised, with cleverly warm and light-increasing touches.

  Comfy, stylish, solid, spotlessly clean, good value. Many lovely walks and drives from here (v well-maintained public footpaths everywhere), genuine sense of peace, and we loved the view, hot tub and range of garden furniture. When the promised wood-burning stove gets added, it'll feel perfect in all weathers - although the heating looks adequate already. It's not within the (overcrowded) Peak District itself but still in a lovely landscape, and many attractions aren't far. I didn't want to come home. I could only quibble with a few tiny practical details: I'd've liked a few more mugs, one living-room lightbulb bright enough to let you read on the sofa, a bannister rail and soft surface at the bottom of the staircase (which is steep and narrow-stepped as in all genuine cottages - unsuited for mobility-impaired or small kids); a small dishwasher would be handier than the storage for 40 (!) bottles of wine. But the kitchen is well-equipped, and the walk-in shower is excellent (no bath btw). Didn't use the firepit or bbq, but great to have. If you're a dog owner do be aware: as the photos show, garden is shared and not enclosed, and sheep graze one field away, so a long lead might help. But your pup will love the walks here, and the furnishings are very practical. Two dog bowls were kindly left, but you'll want to bring your pup's own bed.

  An absolutely gorgeous cottage with stunning views of the country side, we saw plenty of wildlife from the comfort of the living room.

  The hot tub was amazing, fully adjustable to our preferences (lights, heat, jets/bubbles), one of the headrests was not properly attached so kept coming off, the owner is aware of this and it doesnt affect use of the hot tub at all. The outdoor area looks amazing, an abundance of cushions for it and there were some really good outdoor lights that lit up the garden perfectly. The beds were comfortable and warm and the heating in the house was also adjustable to how we liked it. The owner had left takeout menus which was helpful and there were boardgames in the ottomans which was a nice touch. The kitchen facilities were amazing and there was plenty of space to prep etc. We did have to rewash the dishes as they were not properly cleaned from the previous people, small amounts of food/sauce left on various things which was not a big deal for us and we'd typically rewash dishes when staying away from home anyhow. There was also a few lamp lights not working. The location is great it is far enough away to be tranquil and peaceful but not so far that you feel like you're driving forever to get to the shops. About a 5 min drive to the nearest village. The owner was excellent and quick at communicating with us when we had any questions or comments.

  We had a lovely stay of 3 weeks at the Millhouses Hideaway whilst building work was done at home.

  The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Tracey was there when we arrived and was at the end of the phone, when we had a question, throughout our stay. Will was very responsive when the smoke alarm went off due to a problem with the oven door that they are getting replaced. The beds are very comfortable. The on suite has a soft mattress which we loved but others are firmer if you prefer that. The internet can go down for a short time in the evenings when the demand increases but we were able to get it back on by rebooting the router. We noticed that the water, when running a bath, runs hot then cold for a minute or two but if you leave the taps on it goes hot again and runs a lovely hot bath. There is a path into the woods and Millhouses park by the house next door and that is ideal for dogs. The back garden doesn’t have a gate but there is an old door to slide across to keep small dogs in the garden. We didn’t use the garden as it was wet and quite dark during our stay but we didn’t need it with the park being so close. We would recommend the house for other visitors. Ideally placed in the South of Sheffield for local walks and the Peak District as well as Sheffield City Centre.
