  Lovely property in a great location to explore the Peaks/Dales.

  Very comfy/cozy with lovely owners who live on site next door and so are on hand for any issues. We had a burst shower head - which was replaced within a few hours. Property was very clean on arrival and as described. Lots space for cars and a lovely view to enjoy the sunshine (if and when it choses to make an appearance!). Property is quite small so if you are into your outdoor pursuits and have loads of clothes and equipment you need to wash/dry/store this may not be the right place for you (no utility, bike room etc) but that is evident from the photos on the listing so just something to be aware of and not a fault of the property in any way. Owners have been provided some feedback as to how to improve a few things, hopefully they will benefit those of you that stay here in the future. Great place, you shouldnt be disappointed if you book this place!!

  We had a fabulous time at Barley Cottages.

  Amazing views and pretty much every detail considered by the owner. The kitchen is soo well equipped with everything you need to cater for a group of 6 plus a dog! The location is perfect for getting out on immediate walking trials, or a little mooch into town. The weather was pretty dismal for our stay though, so no long hikes as intended, but it was magical watching thunder and lightning storms across the valley from the summer house. The garden is spectacular and a lot of work must have gone into it. I would say the garden isn’t suitable to let a small dog off lead in my opinion and my only feedback would be to possibly point this out in the booking details. We would love to stay again.

  I stayed at Grove Farm Barn in early February 2025.

  It's fair to say the weather was not kind. The property was easy to find and I had no problem gaining access. There is plenty of parking space for 2 cars, the drive is shared with other property owners. Having off-road parking was important to me, I have a large estate car and many of the properties advertised only had on-road parking or car parks a distance away. The property was very well presented and very comfortable. I think it is the best property I've stayed in. It had everything I needed, the photographs do it justice. It is ideally located to explore the surrounding area, the nearby towns and attraction can easily take a week to explore. I would certainly recommend Grove Farm Barn.

  Wonderful property.

  Pictures don't do it justice. Downstairs/ living space much more generous than it appears. Owners have put in very thoughtful touches from a tea tray in the top bedroom to lights that automatically illuminate your way through the house and garden. This is also what I would truly call a dog friendly property with bowls and blankets provided. We stayed for Christmas and found the property well equipped for cooking and beautifully decorated. Matlock and tansley a 15 min walk either way from the cottage (each with a dog friendly pub) on a various gradient of hill. Set of stairs to first floor is quite steep for less mobile people but there's a solid handrail. Really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

  This is probably the best cottage we have stayed in.

  It is immaculately decorated with so much attention to small details such as the torches readily available and always charged conveniently placed on the walls, the lights which come on automatically in the dark and the abundance of high quality kitchen equipment. I could go on and on. The furniture is top quality, the settees and beds all comfortable. It is ultra doggy friendly, feeding bowls, toys, blankets, treats, everything has been thought of. The garden is lovely- you get lots of exercise going up and down the steps! The views at the top are superb, excellent place to sit and have a cuppa or glass of wine. I cannot rate this cottage too high, we would love to go back.
