"The Manor House was a perfect place to spend a long weekend with family celebrating my 40th birthday. An absolutely amazing setting - if anything, the pictures don't do it justice. Loads of character and charm. Loads of space for 12 of us - 7 adults and 5 children. Hot tub and swimming pool both great. Garden and games room brilliant bonuses. And perfectly placed as a springboard to the peak district. We had a superb wkend and would highly recommend this venue."
"We all had a great time at the Manor House Kids loved the swimming pool We loved the hot tub Beautiful surroundings Over all fab time 😊👍"
"This beautiful period property was superb, couldn't have wished for anything better. It was so querky, complete with authentic creaky timbers. Everything required for a comfortable and enjoyable stay was supplied and all managed well by the staff on site. We will certainly be returning"
"Had a fabulous weekend in this amazing property as a surprise for my husbands Birthday. As he is a history teacher he was absolutely overwhelmed with the property. The surrounding countryside is stunning with lots of beautiful walks. We would love to return and definitely recommend. I lost a precious earring whilst there and the wonderful staff pulled out all the stops to find it and are returning it to me. So grateful."
"Gorgeous house in a gorgeous location. Loved all the personal touches."
"What a marvellous place for my 70th birthday celebration. The Manor could easily accommodate the three generations which made up our party. It was difficult to know which was the best feature: the games room, the hot tub, the garden, the swimming pool or simply the centuries old charm of the house. We left after our long weekend wishing we could have stayed longer."
"We enjoyed our stay. When we did have a problem , we received prompt and friendly service"
"We booked the house for 12 of us for 1 week over Christmas. It was just the perfect week. The house was totally equipped with all that we needed. The location was fantastic. The kitchen and long dining table worked so well. We took alot of things for the kitchen and we didn't need them. The only one recommendation and slight criticism we had is the house is dark and they could do with some more lamps or lights. We tried doing a jigsaw at night and it was impossible. The house is beautiful and we can't fault anything, just a few more brighter lamps please around the house. We will be booking again. Thank you team"
