Could not fault it. Felt like home away from home from the moment we arrived. The full fridge on arrival was amazing. We loved seeing the lambs and chickens just outside the house. Plenty to do within the area with Alton Towers, numerous National Trust places and the peak district all within a short drive. Overall very highly reccomended. 5 stars isn't enough!

The owner had kindly filled the cupboards and fridge with food for us, which was lovely. When we met the rest of the family, they were also so friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The Granary was clean, comfortable and warm and was in a lovely place with extensive views. Everything you needed was provided for from kitchen utensils to linen and towels which was great. We would like to say âThank youâ to Janet, Cynthia and all the family and feel that we have made some lovely friends. We would definitely recommend The Granary to anyone who wants a lovely, restful holiday with owners who really make you feel at home. Thanks again

Itâs a lovely cosy warm house with everything you need. The hosts are lovely but not interfering - we had particularly bad weather whilst I was there and they dropped me a message to warn me that the power may go out and where the torches were, when it snowed they gave advice of where to be careful but that Iâd still be able to get to work, offered logs for the fire when it got cold. It was brilliant to be able to feel at home whilst working away. Id recommend the cottage to anybody!
