What our customers say about their holidays
Peter - Verified booking
Positive comments: Mrs Holland was there when we arrived at 5 pm.
We chatted and she is friendly. There was a welcome gift of milk, biscuits, tea, coffee and sugar. Also a pile of leaflets etc on the area and helpful folder about the cottage. Oil fired CH when needed. Heated towel rails very useful. Clean towels in kitchen and bathrooms. Clean bedding on bed. The house had been left in a cleaned condition. Bins emptied. We liked the rural setting. Generally v peaceful. It was interesting watching the long herd of cows pass the cottage. We loved the mothers and calves in the adjacent field. One calf had just been born and the cow was licking it. We watched twin calves suckling another mother. We did not need it but saw a Tesco van arrive with a delivery next door, so it could have delivered to Swallows Barn . Suggestions for improvements : In the upstairs shower room: The moveable panels on the small shower cubicle were not easy to close properly. The toilet seat needs to be more firmly secured as it regularly slid sideways when sat upon. The carpets downstairs were vacuumed but showed some dirt stains. (but the tray for mucky footwear was a good idea- it just looks like some previous occupants forgot to use it?) The carpet in the dining room bore several dirty boot prints. Deep cleaning would be needed to shift these. They were there before we arrived. The sofa had useful cushions but we felt it was a bit too soft. WiFi in the property would have been useful. The phone signal usually ok by the entrance door. We did not get to use the ploughman table in the back garden, but think it might look better for a sanding and restaining? Loved the little scented rose bush and the pots of pretty flowers. Our greatest disappointment was the bed mattress. We think it is some kind of memory foam. When you first lie on it it feels ok. No lumps etc. However we both found that after lying for a while you sank into hollows and given the humidity of the July nights we both became uncomfortable due to perspiration. Recommend a change of mattress to a different type? The cottage has a lot of good features, if the above were corrected it could so easily be perfect. I hope these suggestions will be helpful.

This is a very good property, and the space is great.
It was well-positioned in the centre of Buxton, easy to park two cars, and extremely comfortable except for one bedroom (hence losing one mark). The house is very well equipped. It was easy to park, and Morrisons is only a walk away. You could have a good holiday here without a car, as everything is so close. Of the three double bedrooms, one has the boiler in, with a sign to not switch it off. However, having the boiler on meant the room roasted, and was extremely difficult to sleep in. Also, the boiler timer ticked incessantly all night, and anyone switching a tap on made a very loud noise in the pipes in that room. You could also hear any noise in the room below from there. My son and his wife who were in the room did switch the boiler off so they could sleep, which meant we had no hot water to shower in the morning until he woke up and we could switch it on again. Inside the house was very clean. However, outside, the gate to the neighbour's back yard was broken and off its hinges (and we had a dog with us), and the passage between the two houses was scruffy, particularly compared to others in the row, with broken slates, etc. on the ground (hence one mark off for cleanliness). Overall, we were very pleased with our stay, which we felt was better than our expectations.

The house itself was spotless and the kitchen was well equipped.
Good quality bedlinen and towels. Welcome pack was much appreciated. Very good WiFi and smart tv. We stayed 4 out of 5 days mainly due to the fact that I did not find the sofas or any of the beds comfortable - especially the creaky metal one. Also the traffic was loud as most of it was quarry lorries. My partner was fine but my back wasnât. Also there was no mention of proximity to a HUGE quarry which never seemed to stop producing dust, noise or lorry traffic. The parking was really tight and we ended up with a wheel arch scrape trying to position the car in the small space and the lane was blocked further up all week by a builders van which meant a perilous reverse out onto a busy road. Also the back view is of untended rear gardens and rubbish which we werenât expecting and was a bit disappointing. On the plus side the neighbours were friendly and there was a pleasant,safe dog walk over the road. I am glad we came but now knowing what the area is like we wonât return as there is too much industry and it is very busy.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Swallows Barn.
We found the cottage to be very clean, comfortable and well appointed. The owner even came to visit us midweek to check we were ok as the weather had been so stormy. The central heating was very efficient and kept us toasty and warm and in the evening we lit the log burner to add some extra heat and comfort. There are numerous walks and cycle rides in the immediate area which is perfect for us, including the famous Monsal Trail on your doorstep. There was a pile of leaflets and walk suggestions in the cottage which were helpful and certainly helped us to plan our day's activity. We only visited one pub to eat during our visit, The Packhorse Inn, which was superb, although make sure you book as it's not huge and gets very busy. We would have no hesitation in recommending Swallows Barn and hope to be back again ourselves to investigate the walks and places of interest that we didn't have time for during this visit!

The cottage was spotlessly clean and very warm and cosy.
The kitchen had everything you need for holiday meals and a dishwasher, always a bonus when away. The fact it had a bath was really nice, as there is a fashion for shower only bathrooms in holiday properties and I love a long hot bath after a day on the damp hills! Couldnât fault the position, walks from the door and very central for Castletown, Hathersage, Bakewell, Buxton and Tideswell. We mainly walked but Haddon Hall (excellent and very reasonable cafe) and Buxton on rainy mornings were close by and allowed for walking later on. I would recommend the very interesting Old House Museum behind the church in Bakewell. Note, there really is no signal at the cottage, so for weather forecasts etc, make sure you get them before going back for the evening. Also bring a pack of cards etc for entertainment as none at the property.
