Snaptrip says
Piggery Place is a well-received cottage, particularly praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and suitability for guests with mobility issues. The property's location within a working farm adds a unique charm, with many guests enjoying the rural setting and proximity to the Peak District's attractions. The host, Sue, is frequently mentioned for her warm welcome and helpfulness.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently describe the cottage as 'spotlessly clean' and 'very clean', indicating a high standard of cleanliness that contributes positively to their overall experience.
The property is appreciated for its quiet, restful setting and good road links, making it an ideal base for exploring the region. However, some guests noted road noise and difficulty finding the property, slightly affecting the score.
Reviewers find the cottage comfortable, with special commendation for its suitability for guests with mobility problems. The presence of a wet room, ramps, and suitable furniture contributes to the comfort experienced by guests.
The cottage is well-equipped for disabled guests and generally well-stocked, but some guests mentioned issues with TV operation, lack of local information, and absence of a dryer. These minor points of feedback suggest room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
While many reviews express gratitude for the host's welcoming nature and the provision of essentials, there is no mention of gifts. Therefore, it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness in terms of gifts, and the score is set to null.
About this property
This lovely barn conversion rests on the owner's farm in the hamlet of Newhaven, near the village of Hartington; home to old curiosity shops, traditional pubs and a splendid market square. Ideal for Chatsworth House. Suited for couples or a small family, Piggery Place is a delightful cottage to return to, comprising a comfortable open-plan living area, divided between a lounge, well-equipped kitchen, and a dining area for four people. Sit back with your favourite DVD on play, enjoying the warmth of the woodburning stove. A collection of bedrooms rest beyond, so you can snuggle up after a long day, either in the double or twin room, each carrying a home away from home feel, with wardrobes, and a neutral overtone. A wet room completes the interior, providing adapted facilities for those less mobile guests. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 996810, together they can sleep up to six people.
The former Hartington railway station, about a mile and half from the village itself, is now a picnic area and the converted track is known as the Tissington Trail, popular with both walkers and cyclists. Hartington is also a good starting point for walking along Beresford Dale, a beautiful place with its curiously formed cliffs and rocks.
