Small Lane Barn Reviews

Sandra
Absolutely beautiful property, fantastic views all around. Been going on weekends away for around 30 years with friends and would say this is the best we have stayed in.
Rachel
Lovely cottage beautifully furnished. Only feedback would be there is no full length mirror & the kitchen knives were blunt. But apart from that it was fab
Allison
Beautiful, well appointed holiday cottage set in beautiful surroundings. Cottage had everything you needed, was clean and well maintained. Games room and hot tub great addition. Owner was so helpful in advising us of local walks. Looking to have a return visit next year.
The property was amazing, everything was done to a high standard and more than enough space for 8 people. It was really secluded too, had great views of the country side. Couldn't recommend highly enough !
Joanne
Can highly recommend staying here. Excellent standards, great facilities and plenty of walks and amenities in the area.
Thank you for such a wonderful stay at Small Lane Barn! It was truly a lovely experience, and we couldnt have asked for a better place to enjoy some quality time with friends. The attention to detail and the welcoming atmosphere youve created really made a difference in making our stay so special. Well definitely be talking about our time there for a long while! Thank you for making it all possible we hope to return soon! Lydia x
Brendan
From the outset, Liz was great & contacted us with everything we needed to reach the cottage. When we visited, there was a lot of snow and ice so Liz & Reuben actually sent us the best routes to avoid the worst of the weather. The house is just awesome and the standard of cleanliness and furnishings was nothing but exceptional. We had the best time and couldn't thank Liz & Reuben enough for their care and attention. We will 100 be back and couldn't recommend this property enough. Brendan & Sophie
Beverley
Absolutely stunning inside and out. Liz and Reuben have really excelled themselves with designing this barn. One of the best properties we've stayed in booked through sykes cottages. Hoping to stay again soon. Hot tub and Games room fantastic. Liz was very helpful and accommodating. Thanks Mum and Daughter Bev and Chelsea xxxx
Mohammed
Stunning cottage with incredible facilities and responsive, friendly hosts.
Stacey
Liz communicated well before our stay & gave clear instructions on how to find the barn. When we arrived the barn was spotless, every extra detail was there from sufficient cleaning products, towels to salt & pepper. I cannot fault this place at all & would definitely reccommend to others. Thank you Liz!
Thank you to all of you concerned with making our stay at Small Lane Barn a really enjoyable experience. All 8 of us were more than happy with the facilities, right down to the small detail. We made good use of the Hot Tub and Games Room facilities, which allowed for the girls their time, and the boys their's, as well as having plenty time together as a whole. We couldn't have been more pleased with our choice, and will no doubt be making a return in the very near future, all being well. Many thanks once again from all of us.
The barn was amazing, it had everything we needed and all the beds were very comfy. The jacuzzi was a great time to relax after the children had gone to bed. We had a lovely family break and will definitely be going again.
Small Lane Barn is an absolute gem. It is probably the nicest property we have ever stayed at for a short break 4 days. The level of detail, quality of finishing and facilties are second to none. Sitting in the hot tub while looking over the peak district landscape was so relaxing. My daughters loved the games room and went everyday to play a variety of games. We used it as a base for Alton towers and Trenham which are both only 28mins away. We will definatley be returning and the hosts are so welcoming too. 5
Such a gorgeous place with a lovely host that was happy to assist us with whatever we needed. Genuinely sad to be home and cant wait to go back next year.
