Wow! What can I say! This property is amazing and we knew it was big but it was HUGE! Beautifully furnished and super clean when we arrived. So much space for us all and with 4 kids and 4 adults that was just what we wanted. We were 2 families with children ages 2-9 and they had a lot of freedom around the outside of the property which was very safe and secure. They spent many an hr roaming the perimeter of the property in the gardens and playing on the children’s equipment. The kitchen was where we enjoyed lots of family meals and again all fully equipped to a high standard.
Within short drives was plenty to do and we truly enjoyed our week in the Manor House and fully intend to return.....The owner was very quick to respond to an inquiry before hand and was very accommodating. 5 stars and some!

Covenient location easy to get to from M1 and close to many of the attractions of the Derbyshire Dales.. Immaculately clean on arrival. A great property for family gatherings.

Manor House was home to us ( 4 couples) for 4 nights on our annual pre christmas getaway.. It was a very cold,frosty early December weekend but the house was beautifully warm at all times. The bedrooms were spacious with comfortable beds and plenty of storage and the best equiped kitchen we have had in 10 years of these holidays. We enjoyed the log burner during the evenings. We visited Chatsworth, Hardwick Hall and Kedleston House during our time in Derbyshire and enjoyed a lovely pub lunch in Clay Cross (The Three Horseshoes). The traffic noise might be an issue in summer months but we couldnt hear any when indoors. We wouldn't hesitate to book this lovely house again.
Mrs Edgerley, November 2019
November 2019
We felt that the house was very bare - no pictures and very little subdued lighting, so therefore not homely.. Otherwise it suited our purpose very well although not easy to find, as most of us were coming from the North of England. Two lots of directions would be really helpful.
Mrs Harrison, November 2019
October 2019
Lack of Toilet Rolls - we had to buy some
Alarm didn’t work properly
Internet needs to be improved
Toilet flushes need fixing
Toilet brushes filthy - same comment I made two years ago
No mirror on dressing table - found it broken in cupboard needs fixing
Some interior doors difficult to open
Some interior doors did not lock properly
These are only minor points nothing spoiled an otherwise very enjoyable holiday.. Such a beautiful bungalow with everything you need.
Thank you.
Mr Norman, October 2019

The house was excellent and was just right for 9 of us.. Plenty of room and very private with a lovely garden all round. Perfect location for days out in the Peak District.
Unfortunately, apart from the master suite, the bedrooms and bathrooms were let down by the fact that there were no surfaces to put anything on. There were no dressing tables, no bathroom shelves etc. so nowhere to stand toiletries, make up, or any other items. A full length mirror, somewhere in the house, would also have been helpful.
Mrs Bright, September 2019
September 2019
We had a fantastic time with our friends.. The house was enormous so we had plenty of room. We had everything we needed and there was only 2 things that could improve it. One is it could do with maybe a hot tub! And the second is the WiFi could do with improving. When we tried to get onto it it wasn’t possible even when just one person tried. Very intermittent signal. Could do with boosters. Other than that it was perfect. Definitely would use this house again.
Mrs Louth, September 2019

Unbelievable house-even more spacious than it looked online! Had everything we could have needed! Playset in the garden a huge plus as we came with kids and there is also a hut which they really enjoyed! Loads to do in the area! Would def reconsider booking again!

Manor House is huge! We had plenty of space for our family of ten, with very comfortable bedrooms, plenty of bathrooms and great accessibility for a wheelchair user. The kitchen is very user friendly with space for us all to enjoy preparing and eating family meals. In fact we never used the dining room as the kitchen was so easy with our wide range of family.
There was plenty of room in the lounge and the children enjoyed having so much space in the house. The gym area was appreciated but the garden was a massive bonus. The play area looks well used, but was well used again by our children. The massive space was terrific for our Easter egg hunt.
Views from the garden are very pretty but the immediate area is not particularly appealing. However access to places we wanted to visit was absolutely fine.
We all struggled to find the house initially and definitely needed electronic help. Maybe slightly more detailed directions would be useful.
Mrs Sowerby, April 2019

Celebrated my husband's 60th birthday, family from Yorkshire and Norfolk joined up here.. Truly an amazing place plenty of room very clean and comfortable everything to excellent standards. Would not hesitate to book again.
Mrs Hawes, April 2019
March 2019
This house is enormous! It potentially has 6 bedrooms as we put the baby cot in the study. And it is very comfortable although the temperature of the heating is not easily controlled so we were very hot at times but the owners responded very quickly to our request to reduce it a bit. Great garden and play equipment for children. Good location for visiting the area.
Mrs Page, March 2019
March 2019
What an amazing place! Plenty of space for all the family and a large enclosed garden for the children.
Had a brilliant birthday weekend. Would definitely book again.
The weekend was finished off by a fall of snow on the Sunday morning.
Mrs Gilbert, March 2019
March 2019
The Manor House is a fantastic property and thoroughly exceeded our expectations.. Often properties that accommodate large groups fail to provide enough seating in the sitting room and dining areas. We were 5 couples and enjoyed having a bathroom per couple so no waiting around when getting ready to go out. The house is heated via underfloor heating which is very warm (often we had to open the windows). The kitchen area is very well equipped and again a large round table seats 10. We couldn’t have improved the accommodation in any way and have already decided that we’d like to return next year.
Mrs Tai, March 2019
October 2018
We had a wonderful weekend break with the family despite the weather.. The house was perfect for our needs and was great for our two year old grandson to use the space and not get under everybody's feet. Unfortunately the weather did not allow us to make much use of the large garden but we did make an apple pudding from some of the windfalls!
A couple of suggestions : The two white frying pans did not work on the induction hob so are essentially useless, however the other pans were great and diverse. A knife sharpener would be useful. We also suggest you update the photo of the front of the house as it now looks more attractive with the more mature garden.
Hopefully we pretty much left the house as we found it.
Mr Bailey, October 2018
July 2018
The cottage far exceeded our expectation.. The grandchildren had the run of the house and the garden. They didn't have time to become bored, the play house and the play frame kept them entertained throughout the week. Seeing the hares visiting us in the mornings was wonderful, for the children to see such lovely animals outside of a zoo excited them. We would holiday there in a heartbeat.
Mrs Davies, July 2018
May 2018
The only negative we could find was, we were a party of 10 and the dining table was only big enough for 8 to sit and eat comfortably .. 2 of us ate in the kitchen no problem. Everything else was 5 star , we will be back .
Mrs Turton, May 2018
April 2018
What a house ideal location for exploring the area I know they recommend a local pub but if you can eat at the Devonshire arms it’s about another 1 mile up the road but well worth the trip.. The only thing the house needs is a swimming pool or jacuzzi
Mr Bolam, April 2018
March 2018
Perfect luxurious house for our annual 3 generation holiday.. Loads of room for the 10 of us with beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms. Sadly the weather meant we could not make the most of the enormous garden, but it was perfect for our Easter Sunday egg hunt. Thoroughly enjoyed Bolsover Castle, Chatsworth House, Heights of Abraham and Bakewell. 5 year old birthday boy loved his special day at Gulliver’s Kingdom!
Mr Burn, March 2018
February 2018
An excellently appointed property.. Very safe for young children & superb grounds to play in. Close to many walking areas - 5 Pits Trail was particularly good.

Large comfortable bungalow in a good situation.. Had two design faults the dining room was too small for the size of the bungalow and the hot water cistern was in the garage at the extreme end of the bungalow and there were difficulties in getting hot water to some of the bedrooms.
Dr Mosley, February 2018

This is a beautiful property in a stunning location.. We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. Would highly recommend.
Miss Thomas, December 2017
December 2017
We selected this property as it was central to our family members and provided the accommodation we needed for a family celebration of 2 birthdays during our stay.. The location was ideal and provided us with the opportunity to enjoy the delights of the area, in particular Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and Bakewell at a less frenetic time of the year, especially as the venues were putting on Christmas events. The fact that the grounds were large meant that the grandchildren could enjoy a safe runaround and they thoroughly enjoyed being able to make snowmen due to the snowfall on the Saturday night (not only the grandchildren it must be added). The accommodation was very spacious and at no stage did we feel on top of each other with the added bonus that there was no queuing or waiting for a bathroom. There were a couple of very small issues which we reported to the owners but those issues did not affect the overall satisfaction with the property and its facilities.

The property was superb, but a pity all the bedrooms did not have en-suite facilities.. The rest of the property was of such a high standard it was strange not to have them.
That being said it was a wonderful stay.

Mrs Thompson, November 2016

The cottage was beautiful in every way.. However, there were no two pin plugs anywhere for shavers and toothbrushes. It would be nice to inform people of this as we had to go out and find an adapter.
Booth, September 2016
August 2016
The size and quality of the house were outstanding.. We booked the house for a family reunion for my parents and my 3 siblings and spouses and we all enjoyed the house. Each couple were very pleased with their rooms and we all were impressed with the kitchen, dining room and lounge which could all accommodate the 10 of us. The gym was a very welcome bonus.
We will definitely consider booking the house again.

We went as a surprise birthday weekend for my partner. As there were a lot of us I was worried that we would be on top of each other but the bungalow was so spacious with excellent facilities. It was very clean and had everything that you needed. The kitchen was amazing. There was plenty of room in the lounge and dining room for us all to be together. The outside area was lovely and set in a lovely location. There were pubs in walking distance. We had a brilliant time, would definitely recommend it and will definitely be going again!

There are so many positive things to say about this property; the grand entrance hallway, the spacious lounge with enough sofas for everyone to sit comfortably, the stunning well equipped kitchen and the practical dining room. Each bedroom was stylishly decorated, there were plenty of en suites and bathrooms and a large garden drive. Everything was clean and well maintained, the list could go on! This house was perfect for us and we all said we would love to stay here again. I agree with previous comments, the photos are beautiful, but this property is better than the photos.

Our family members all arrived at different times, and like my husband and myself were absolutely stunned at the quality and size of the cottage. We all agreed that the pictures we viewed on the website did not lead us to expect such a wonderful place. Every effort was made to ensure the accommodation was immaculate and fully equipped for our every need and comfort. Our three grandchildren loved the space and the garden. We all enjoyed the quiet location and surrounding countryside.
The local amenities were more than adequate for a short or longer stay.

Manor House was even better than it looked in the pictures. It was extremely spacious, welcoming, spotlessly clean and comfortable; well-equipped too, and with a very large garden. Everything being housed on one floor suited us fine and the configuration of the five bedrooms and five luxurious bath/shower rooms was perfect. All in all, a perfect holiday home which we would definitely recommend.

The house is fabulous, so much so we didn't need to venture out much at all. Although we did do some sight seeing in Chesterfield and Matlock Baths. The play area in the garden was lovely for the grandchildren and when there cousins visited us for the day a good time was had by all, finished off with a BBQ in the evening. We chose this particular house for our large family holiday and the accessibility for my wheelchair bound husband, with several wet room bathrooms was wonderful too. We used the one by the gym as we had the twin bedded room.
