There was cereal & stuff for tea, coffee etc. Little touches made the place amazing & the best we have stayed at so far. Will definitely go back

Roads were noisy at night. Thee was a problem with the shower temperature, which the landlord tried to fix, but it was still a problem. The gate key was stiff and my husband was unable to master it.

The property was small but had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped with appliances and tea, coffee, milk and condiments. Good shops and pubs were withing walking distance. Good road networks are nearby.

Couldn't think of anything

The barn was easy to get to and had parking at the front for our hire car. Bit of a shuffle at times parking. We were happy that it was behind a locked gate and then you had a private courtyard. The place was very clean and had all the amenities needed. The bed was very comfy. The location was central to transport and shops. A bonus is we had snow which was lovely. Would definitely stay again.

There are a few bits that could do with something of an update, especially in the bathroom, where the shower controls were not the greatest and the bathroom cabinet could do with replacing. I realise this is nit picking but it does detract a little from what is an overwhelmingly positive experience

I was travelling for work and this place was exactly what I needed to relax and to continue working after relatively long days. The place has some nice touches that make it feel quite homely. The Internet is really good and being able to use the main house facilities such as the washing machine is really useful. The host gives really clear info before the stay and lots of good info when you get there and is at hand if need be though leaves you to it unless required. 2nd time i have stayed here and will defo again There isn't a great deal to do in the immediate area, although the canal area is quite nice, it's in a great location to visit areas like Nottingham, Chesterfield, Sheffield etc which are all within a short train journey (train station is less than half a mile from the Barn.)

The only down sides to this property were the limited parking and the traffic noise. It was very hot on the first night so we had a window open and the traffic is extremely loud - not a problem when the windows are closed though.

The property was clean with comfy beds and a good shower - the most important things for a good trip I think! The outside space was safe and enclosed, so ideal for our little dog.

Arriving late, we were given the combination of the key safe, and the instructions were very clear. Clean, separate from the other properties, it was exactly what we were looking for.

This is a barn conversation, it was clean and Tidy and had everything that you would want Lovely kitchen, with small dining table Along with sofa and TV. The barn was well presented. Had everything.

The only negative I can say is we couldn't get the heating on, but this wasn't a big issue as we weren't freezing, if it was then we would have contacted the host.

It was a really lovely little place, I loved the history part of it being an old converted barn. The print out information left for guests was a really nice touch.

reception on the tv was very bad, especially on BBC 1 and 2 and the sound quality generally was tinny.

very clean, comfortable and quiet. within 5 minutes walking distance of main shopping street and 15 minutes walk from train station. lovely little patio area in full sun all day, warm,cosy and very private.

This is a really quirky place to stay, a little bit different and totally unexpected. The attention to the little details really made a difference. The communication from Alan was brilliant and the pictures sent in advance an absolute god send. Having the small living area / dining room and kitchen with separate bedroom gave me lots of space to relax and unwind after a hard day of work. When i needed to work remotely the excellent WiFi really enabled this. I honestly loved this little place and would highly recommend this for anyone visiting the area (not really suitable for families unless its a couple with 1 young child)

it was great for me and would sleep 3 but if it where 3 it might get very tight but for solo travel or a couple it is fantastic value and you get alot more than expected

the facilities where amazing and everything i could need was provided a kitchen with all utensils and equipment to make food with a fridge freezer ironing board and washing machine and cereals provided with tea and coffee so i didnt have to buy any for myself, it was like a little home from home, and the fact it was a seperate building it felt more private, staff were kind and sent instructions and where more than happy to help if needed
