  Have just returned from a family weekend away.

  We were a party of 6 adults and 4 children aged 8,6,6 and 2. Dove Meadows was the perfect venue. A roomy five bedroomed modern house in a quiet position with beautiful views and only a two minute stroll into the centre of Hartington village centre. The house is very comfortable with quality furnishings and flexible accommodation. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of cutlery, crockery etc and lots of extras that make catering for a mixed age family group easier. Younger visitors are not forgotten with plastic plates, cups etc a selection of board games for inside and a good selection of outdoor games such as badminton, quoits, a selection of balls and plastic boules. In addition to all of the above was an outstanding welcome pack which included crisps , ground coffee, instant coffee, ordinary tea bags and earl grey, chocolates and a local map. In the fridge there was also milk, Prosecco and wine. However the crowning glory as far as the children were concerned were the bubbles which provided them all with hours of entertainment. The owners Peter and Annie were very helpful and patient with my endless questions prior to our stay which was much appreciated. The whole family loved our stay at Dove Meadows and we are already discussing a return trip !

  As a group we’ve been customers of Sykes since their outset.

  This house has gone straight to the top of our list. We shall certainly be back. Immaculately presented and with everything you might need. We all stood and gazed at the empty pristine garage with its extra fridge and boot rack. Oh the joys of a new build. Plenty of storage everywhere including the garage. Comfy beds with spotless linen, large bathrooms. Kitchen/diner and bedrooms furnished beautifully. Building work at the rear but didn’t affect us in the slightest. We had very good weather and especially enjoyed sitting outside at the front looking out over fields. Location superb - just 200m stroll to Hartington centre. 2 pubs - preferred the Devonshire Arms. Several coffee shops we liked all of them including the one in the YHA hostel. Great walking routes available from said hostel. Hosts were very helpful both before and during our stay. Minor niggle for six vain women was that’s there’s no mirror downstairs! Fantastic place. Told all our friends and we will be back.

  Dove Meadows House is a beautiful, comfortable, new build home with quality furniture, fixtures and equipment in abundance fot our party of 8 adult sized people, 1 toddler and an 11month old infant so it will easily accommodate10 adults.

  A nice touch was the well thought out quality welcome pack with some basics and some luxuries and something for everybody from alcoholic beverages for the adults to bubbles for the kids. The owners Pete and Annie were very thoughtful and attentive and when we did contact them, they got back to us with answers very quickly. Being on the edge of an active development site made no or little impact as Dove Meadows House is on the village side of the development so when walking out and about we had very little interaction with the builders and any noise that they might have made was largely unnoticed. To summarise it's a great property in a lovely location and is serviced by very attentive owners. I'd love to go back in the summer when the many footpaths are a little less muddy but will I be able to get all the family together again for this?

  We had a great stay at Dove Meadows House and the accommodation exceeded all our expectations.

  Extremely comfortable house, well equiped to the highest standards, great kitchen with all the most modern facilities, good beds and bedding, games for the children and adults and some lovely decorative touches throughout. It is very conveniently located in the lovely village of Hartington with a 3 minute walk to the Market Place and all the shops. Not being on the main road it is also very quiet. The host and hostess were extremely helpful, friendly and generous.

  Dear Pete and Annie.

  Thank you so much for allowing us to share your beautiful home. We had a fantastic time and felt it was better than the pictures on line. We didn't want for anything, the basket of goodies were lovely and the extras. None of us could find fault with anything, comfy beds, kitchen and dining for us all, and lovely cosy lounge to relax in in the evenings. I must add the village was delightful and catered for all our needs. Once again thanks so much.
