Family-friendly holiday rentals in Staffordshire

Andrea was a great host and it’s a beautiful place and property, would highly recommend

I can’t speak highly enough of the space and Emma, the host. Emma is extremely responsive with any queries whatsoever. She was so knowledgeable and helpful and the check in was seamless. When we arrived, we knew we were in for a treat but the pictures just don’t do it justice. The yurt is absolutely magical and Emma has thought of everything, anything you could possibly need is provided and the instruction booklet is clear and thorough so you know how everything works. We slept like kittens in the very comfy bed and it is so unbelievably cosy and relaxing, we didn’t stop smiling the whole time. Thoroughly recommend taking advantage of the hot tub and the pizza oven, Emma’s dough was delicious and the instructions to work the oven were very clear and helpful. We didn’t want to leave. The whole place is so magical with the fairy lights and going to sleep to the sound of owls was really lovely. We will 100% be back. Thank you so much, Emma ❤️❤️❤️

We spent three nights at Sue’s farmhouse and it couldn’t be better. It is quite remote which means peace and fresh air, but also accessible to Ashbourne for food and restaurants. The beds are very comfortable (considering myself to be quite picky with beds and pillows). The kitchen is very well equipped and we had everything we need for cooking dinner. Thanks for your hospitality and we really enjoyed our stay.

Excellent stay with our two toddlers (3 and 1). Great little place that is bigger than it seems on the photos! Our kids loved seeing the animals roaming around. Perfeclty located for alton towers too!

The hosts were incredibly kind, polite, and helpful, providing plenty of information and always being responsive and willing to help with everything. The house is amazing, just as it looks in the pictures. The surroundings are beautiful, with amazing views, and the place is spotless and well-maintained. Highly recommend!

Emma is such a friendly and lovely host making sure we had everything we needed. Such a beautiful place for a peaceful get away

Beautiful place for a relaxing girls weekend away. Plenty of space for the four of us. Very well equipped kitchen. The outside dining space was a wonderful place to have breakfast before we left. Thank you so much- will recommend to friends!

Me and my partner stayed here for our anniversary. Sarah greeted us at check in and was very accommodating. We massively over packed as everything that we needed was already there, Sarah has thought of everything. The yurts were very peaceful and felt like each one had privacy but also they all have a communal vibe. Log burner and hot tub were easy to use and the hot tub was already warm on arrival. Would definitely recommend Sarah’s place to others and we’re keen to go back with our children.

6 families met together here for 6 days and we found The Grange to be a good size for us. There’s an enclosed garden big enough for 5 children and 2 dogs to play in. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need for cooking. There are plenty of places to visit with the children. All in all we had a lovely week.

We stayed here this week with my sister and family and there was ample room for us all, we LOVED having loads of bathrooms and a huge kitchen and the pigs, peacock and chickens outside the kitchen window were a constant source of entertainment for the kids (and our dog!). The setting is beautiful. It’s so peaceful with gorgeous views over the countryside. We will be back next year!

Such a wonderful couple of days attending our daughters wedding. Made even more relaxed by staying at Lizzie place. Fantastic directions and info sent in advance. The Old Barn was such a delightful place to stay. Beautiful and peaceful setting, spotlessly clean, very comfortable, even the little dog came in to say hello as we were leaving🥰 I would definitely recommend this home to anyone.

I had a wonderful stay! The host was absolutely amazing, warm, responsive, and professional. The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had a classy, welcoming feel. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and stylish place.

Loved our stay at Gibb Tor - beautifully converted bar and full of personality. Lyndsey was exceptionally communicative. I was poorly for some of my stay, Lyndsey was flexible and generous with our check out time, and it became a relaxing retreat to get better. Would definitely visit again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Swallow Cottage which was spacious, well appointed, comfortable and scenic! It was a home away from home for our party of six adults. Claire and Sammie were responsive and always helpful. We’d stay again in a heart beat especially during Spring when the local area is stunning! We especially enjoyed the produce at the local butcher and bakery at Woodmill Farm. Thank you, Claire and Sammie, for a perfect getaway!

A lovely quiet location as a base to explore the Derbyshire Dales. The cottage is very cosy with everything you could want for your stay. Lots of walks right from the front door, including the Tissington Trail that takes you into Ashbourne, and a pub just minutes away on foot. Would definitely recommend.

wow, I was amazed with the views, the size of kithen and dinning area, rooms, numbers of toilets! it was all what we were looking for. The energy of house itself was very positive! thank you for a lovely stay!

We had a large group stay for 2 nights, and found that the communal spaces worked really well. We appreciated having enough space for people to sit and eat together, with a separate lounge area that was similarly big enough for everyone to comfortably gather. The beds were comfortable, and the flexibility of the layout was appreciated. We had a nice meal out that was only 10mins drive away, and enjoyed the nice walks in the area. Communication from the host was responsive. There is only one small parking space at the property but there was plenty of on-street parking within close proximity.

We had a wonderful stay. Impressive pool, garden furniture and landscaping to make the most of the sun. Ideal location for touring local sites. Izzy and partner were very welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

our stay at staycation cottages in bakewell was lovely. the love nest Lodge was very quaint and well equipped. the bathroom was especially layed out nicely. I enjoyed the access to the football playing area, pool area and the swimming pool. we used the bbq area once and made full use of the boot room for leaflets and information for our stay would definitely return back

Lovely, well kept and spacious. Beautiful views and peaceful location with lovely hot tub ready to enjoy straight away. Sara was very responsive when we needed a few extra things for the kitchen. Overall a great find

We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage. The space is great and as an extra bonus, you get to use a heated pool and brilliant games room. We went early Jan and there was loads of snow, as well as pretty cold temperatures, but the house warmed up very quickly and we were always more than comfortable. The property is close enough to Bakewell for a short drive or taxi ride, should you want to venture into town. We're thinking about going back in the summer.

Great host excellent communication and lovely apartment thanks again

Biggest asset was as a peaceful base for a week’s walking in the White Peak. Great location for Bakewell and Hartington areas. Good mix of scenery and plenty of dog friendly pubs. Pool a bonus. Accommodation was comfortable and a couple of maintenance issues were resolved without fuss.

Very beautiful surroundings and cleverly executed indoor swimming pool, sauna and massage rooms! Some minor issues with the heating of the Manners and sounds of the swimmers below however it’s a great little escape! Highly recommend it.
