orchard meadow holiday barn leek-buxton-Ashbourne

The location is peaceful and very rural

The property has been converted from a barn by rank amateurs. Terrible finishes throughout. The worst bathrooms imaginable: one is tiny with neither windows nor extractor fan and a tiny basin on top of the toilet; the other is dirty, with no window and an extractor fan that doesn't work. Everywhere you look there are badly finished aspects which a genuine tradesperson would be ashamed of. At £200/night, this feels like a camping barn, not a proper holiday let. The sticking, squeaking door on arrival says it all. No redeeming qualities at all. Lots of spiders and cobwebs, and very little sign of cleaning since the last visitors.

Good location, hosts were very helpful. Also provided cot and high chair

Not being able to control the heating was difficult, especially with a baby. Bathrooms weren’t really fit for use. En-suite was too cramped and the other shower filled up with water. Cobwebs in places and dirt behind toilet seat too

Really excellent location for Alton Towers. Large kitchen/living area was perfect for us and the bedrooms were all comfortable. Great to have 2 bathrooms as well.

One of the bathrooms is a bit small but it didn't matter too much to us.

Lovely rooms, plenty space

It was lovely , excellent location and love the building would come here again lots of facilities

Only single available is EE , not really a dislike but more of if we had known sorta thing we could of prepared be fire arriving.

Lovely area. Nice looking barn conversion. Good open space downstairs. Owners very helpful.

Heating wasn’t working when we arrived and house felt cold but this was sorted by the following morning and then the house was nice and warm. En-suite bathroom is very ‘tight’.

Great,quiet location but not far of drive to go on days out and nip shop, lovely and cosy love the set up downstairs great open plan setting, great views and lovely area. Thank you to host for providing an amazing stay

Shower in main bedroom was tight to get into but other bathroom had a shower.

The barn conversion is so pretty and it's clear a lot of hard work has been put into making it feel so homely and cosy. D&D were super helpful coming out to help us when we arrived late. We stayed here whilst visiting alton towers for the weekend for a birthday and was so nice to be in the beautiful countryside after the hustle and bustle of the parks all day, just wish we had stayed longer!

There wasn't anything we didn't like and it would be unfair to say there was. A suggestion would be maybe a small sign along the road to give a indication of how far the barn is away as we got pretty lost in the dark using the sat nav and there is no phone signal unless you are with EE but that is not a negative and appreciate it may not be possible with planning and the locals.
