Lovely surroundings, beautiful dinky cottage just the right amount of space for a couple very friendly host, not disturbed had a great stay thank you really recommend

It is being really great place!!! the host was friendly and the animal was lovely. Perfect place for relaxing with friends or family.

My friend and I spent a couple of nights at the pod while visiting Alton Towers which was only a 10-15 minute drive away, perfect location and somewhere a bit different to stay. We had great fun cooking on the hob outside, using the log burner (which was so cosy and heated the room up so quick!) and just relaxing playing cards in a beautiful setting. Sally and Andy were lovely hosts. Sally was so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for her. We arrived to tea, coffee and hot chocolate all waiting for us to use and milk chilling for us in the cool box. We booked a continental breakfast for our first morning which Sally brought up to us the night before as we were heading out early the next morning. She brought up a hamper stuffed full of food (including 4 croissants to warm on the hob!) and orange juice, we did not expect all of that and we could not have asked for anything else! On our second morning we booked a cooked breakfast to have before heading home. It was a typical full English breakfast served up in the farm house, it was delicious! She cooked us so much food, had home made bread for toast and even gave us some freshly chopped fruit to start with. We left very satisfied and full up! The directions we were given to the pod from Sally and Andy before hand were very accurate and we found the house no problem, I recommend printing or taking a picture of them out before hand as sat nav only takes you so far. Overall we had a fantastic few days at the pod, a lovely place to get away for a few days or if you are looking for somewhere different to stay. We will definitely be coming back!

We have had the most magical weekend staying in the pod on Sally and Andy's farm in Dimmingsdale. It was so beautiful on arrival that we cancelled our tables at any restaurants for the weekend as we couldn't bear to leave! We were welcomed with a chilled bottle of prosecco which was a lovely, generous touch. The pod is tucked away behind the house in some fields and is totally peaceful with nothing or nobody else in sight around. Nipper the dog kept us company some times at the pod and was a very peaceful companion. We loved exploring the local area and enjoyed walking to local amenities such as the Royal Oak pub, the Cricketers pub, the rambler's retreat and Denstone farm shop. We were welcomed by Sally and Andy's daughters who were helpful and kind during our stay. The pod is well equipped with everything you need to be warm and comfortable for your stay. We prepared all our meals at the pod and found the BBQ, the wood stove and the gas burners easy to use. The pod isn't hooked up to the mains power or WiFi yet but there are lights and the cool box set up is seriously effective and there is phone signal if you so desire. We didn't meet Sally and Andy but their daughters on the farm were really helpful and offered to charge or power things in the house if needed. We couldn't recommend this more and are already looking forward to our next stay!

Had a fantastic few days away. The lodge was beautiful, we couldn't have asked for a better stay.

Secluded and cosy, a must visit for some good walks and relaxation. Have already recommended! Thanks for having us

We had a fantastic time in the pod! Outdoor and adventurous feeling with all the comfort of a cosy wood fire and comfy bed. Beautiful surroundings and perfect for dogs. Thank you very much Sally and Andy!

Perfect week end! Such an idyllic location with walks to lots of destinations and ideal location for Alton Towers! Such lovely hosts and will highly recommend! Xxx

We absolutely loved the pod, it was cosy, beautifully decorated and in a stunning place. Sally and Andy were so friendly and helpful, would definitely recommend to anyone and will hopefully be coming back ourselves sometime!

This place is perfect! The room was beautiful - everything clean and welcoming! Lovely shower and cosy bed, it was just what I needed! A wonderfully relaxing two days.. Eirwen too was such a lovely host, very flexible and happy to help in any way she could. I had a thoroughly enjoyable stay and would highly recommend this lovely place to anyone.. Thanks Eirwen! :)

Lovely location, easy to find and very comfortable and clean. Eirwen was warm, welcoming and provided a lovely place to stay. The breakfast provided was a lovely touch. I'd recommend this to anyone, brilliant place and a brilliant host!

Excellent overnight accommodation, lovely locality, host, standard of accommodation, facilitates and lovely breakfast!

Eirwen was a most gracious hostess - she even stood out and waited for us to arrive when we inadvertently missed the property on our first attempt! The accommodation is beautifully appointed to a high standard and extremely well equipped - we wanted for nothing. Breakfast was all-encompassing and again, Eirwen had thought of everything. We loved staying here, all be it too briefly and would love to return.

Eirwen and Mike were wonderful hosts. We received a warm welcome and shared some nice conversation. Mike even brought us a drink as we sat in the garden enjoying the afternoon sun. The barn conversion was beautifully restored with a quality finish and spotlessly clean. A breakfast feast was conveniently all prepared and waiting in the fridge. Set within lovely gardens the Chase with great walks was only a few minutes walk away. Thanks for a lovely stay!

What a little gem this place has it all. Friendliest hosts beautiful gardens and spotless clean accommodation! They have thought of everything the cottage is so well equipped and in a perfect quiet location near the Chase. The bed was so comfortable best nights sleep I had in ages. The breakfast left for us was plentiful and fresh. Eggs, orange juice, yogurt, fruit, marmalade, pastries, bread, coffee, tea and butter which set us up nicely for the day. I would highly recommend this little hideaway you will not be disappointed. Thank you for a lovely stay, Tania and Adam x

What to say well beyond our expectation Fantastic will recommend to all our friends. The converted barn had everything required furnishings were to a very high standard, the bed extremely comfortable spotless inside. Breakfast continental style meats cheese milk fruit juice cereal bread egg's all you could think of. Outside own drive secluded garden seating lovely large gardens. Our hosts Mike & Erwin very hospitable kind thoughtful felt like old friends by the time we were ready to leave full of useful area information made us very welcome on arrival. The area near to Cannock Chase lovely area great range of Pubs places to eat. Near to Ironbridge a great day out also visit Shugborough House and estate well worth a visit. Waterways barges we needed to unwind this was the place to do it we will be back again.

Eirwen and Mike were amazing hosts, very accommodating even with our late check in. The flat was perfect, very well laid out, organised and immaculate. My only issue was that were only staying for one night not a week!

Had a lovely night in the Cabin, quiet and cosy! Such a beautiful spot to stay and Elizabeth was such a great host and friendly lady. She even let us wander to the stables to say hello to the horses and other animals. Would love to stay again. Thanks you ! Tom & Linz

Can highly recommend. Lovely and romantic with friendly and helpful host

Liz and her family are really nice and friendly people and help us a lot, we enjoy a very wonderful night and hope to come back again! No need to worry about the meals and snacks because there are local supermarkets around and delivery meals' menu in the dinning room. The wooden bedroom is clean, fully-equipped and comfortable. The farm is beautiful and interesting. Breakfast made by Liz has a lot of kinds which are all very delicious. I highly recommend Liz's place for a night or several days for a holiday, no matter you want to go to Alton Towers or not.

Chained oak is a beautiful place with a lovely family. It was a pleasure and an honor to stay in such a wonderful place. Though it's just opposite alton towers, you felt like you were secluded and it was beautifully peaceful. I can't wait to visit again next year!

This is a beautiful little lodge set slightly apart from the main stable block. It's very comfortable, pleasantly warm, and nice and secluded. Could not be closer to Alton towers, quite literally walkable but we would stay again just for the countryside even without the park. The breakfast room has beautiful views and a good selection for breakfast and the host is lovely. Only tiny suggestion would be a slightly wider blind for the lodge as the flood light on the end of the stable block opposite was on all night and quite bright and the existing blind let in a bit of light at the edges. Would definitely stay here again though.

The Chained Oak B&B was a fantastic find and was next door to Alton Towers Theme Park which is in walkable distance. There is also a small shop down the road for essentials. The cabin was beautiful and was built by her son. Liz was a great host and provided an excellent breakfast and service. Can't wait to visit again in the future!

What a lovely place! Easy to find, parking was simple, really quiet and peaceful yet only a few steps from everything you could need (pub/little shops/tea room etc). Photos don't do Hidden Cottage justice - its beautiful inside and out - the private little garden had lovely herbs and flower pots.. could imagine wasting an afternoon sat out there with a book and a glass of wine! TV, internet, big shower, lovely fresh bed and a kitchen with everything you would need.. couldn't have asked for more after a long day walking in the peaks and the night before a day in the potteries. Just wished we had longer to stay!!! 5* Joanne :-)

Lovely quiet & secluded cottage one minutes walk to pubs & shops.The cottage is very homely and nicely decorated with all of the amenities that you will need. A perfect place for a couple with Alton Towers a 15 minite drive away. Joanne was always punctual in replying to messages when needed. Check in / Check out was smooth and the directions sent to us were perfect making it very easy to find even though it is the 'hidden cottage. Thank you for a great stay, we will be back.

What a delightful little cottage. So pretty, clean, well equipped and relaxing. The little tea rooms just a few doors away are highly recommended, best beef sandwich ever! Thank you Joanne, hope to visit again

Lovely place to stay. The photos do not do the beauty justice. Would highly recommend. Extremely clean, well throughout and decorated. Our stay couldn't be better

Brilliant place to stay, with easy access to Peak District, Alton Towers, Trentham Estate, and many other places. Really nice, cosy, quiet place with everything you'd need!

If your looking for a hidden gem then this is the place to go, fab cottage, great surroundings and easy to find. Will be back x Many thanks Joanne

This is a wonderful place when visiting Stoke on Trent, short walk from the train station. The room is large, with a comfortable double bed and a desk. The internet is fast (200mbps!), which I really appreciated as I had work to do. There's a 24/7 shop nearby and a large supermarket. Rajani & Praveen are wonderful hosts. This place is highly recommended!

Pat is always very accommodating,very caring person. He prepares a nice breakfast when you in a hurry and you do not have time to go to McDonald's :) The room is spacious and always clean.His accompany is a good aid to calm you down following a bad day at work due to his intelligence. He speaks French,German,Spanish and Italian which apparently makes your stay quite interesting. Thanks Pat, see you soon.

Hi everybody, I recommend you Patrick because it is an amazing host with whom you can speak during hours. He is an incredible character, so enjoy. The house is very clean and tidy because Patrick is really meticulous. Choose him for having good time with someone unique like Patrick :)

Made very welcome, and cared for.

Patrick was very welcoming and made everything available as described.

Patrick was very friendly, accommodating and welcoming. It was lovely talking to him - he's a fascinating and talented person. I'm sure he must have thought I was crazy - I was cycling to North Wales! - and needed to arrive late and leave early but I checked timings with him in advance and he was very accommodating. I'd love to have stayed longer. My first airbnb experience - I definitely recommend Patrick and look forward to using airbnb again at some point in the future.

Patrick and his home is everything other people have written about it and him. Patrick really wants to do all he can for you while you are in his home. He really wants to help out however he can when you are in his home. And he clearly has the Irish gift of the gab, so be prepared to chat about anything and everything when you are in his place, because Patrick likes to talk. :)

If i could give 10 stars I would! Such s lovely couple and a beautiful beautiful home. Breakfast was amazing. I would 100% recommend.

We had a brilliant nights stay at Kevin and Lesley's place this weekend. The home is absolutely beautiful and the location was perfect for us, as it was rural and so peaceful but only a couple of minutes stroll to the local pub restaurant. We had a fabulous and indulgent meal there and then retired for a fantastic nights sleep in a really comfortable bed, and awoke to a view out the window of green fields and lambs! Bliss. Kevin and Lesley were fantastic hosts and made us feel at home. The two furry hosts Molly and Willow also made us smile throughout! Would definitely recommend and gladly stay here again. If you're looking for a quiet bolt hole in the country, this is for you.

Very welcoming hosts and brilliant accomadation. Many thanks.

The perfect Airbnb experience. Beautiful house just a short drive from amazing walks in the Peak District. Kevin and Lesley were superb hosts, the perfect mix of sociable, helpful and welcoming. And to top it all off the two dogs were very cute.

Lesley and Kevin were most welcoming. friendly and thoughtful throughout our stay. The room is very comfortable with a large ensuite shower room, lots of storage space, and a comfortable bed, all in a lovely converted barn space. The room is private at the end of a comfortable lounge which guests may use. We were also offered the use of the kitchen for tea and coffee whenever we wanted. Our hosts were very accommodating to our vegan diet, providing vegan-friendly breakfasts for us. The only drawback is the patchy WiFi, which doesn't reach the room, although it works in some areas of the lounge and in the kitchen area. We also couldn't get mobile coverage in the house. But that can be a blessing! in a beautiful area, with great access by car to the Peak District for walking, and to Chatsworth - highly recommended.

Leslie made us most welcome with a cup of tea on arrival. The area of the house is lovely with nice pubs and places of interest nearby. The house is great, a tastefully renovated barn. The guest bedroom is very comfortable with a very nice en suite bathroom. A real home from home.

Kevin and Lesley could not have done more for us. We stayed to visit Alton towers and were completely enchanted by their beautiful home. Everything was immaculate and nicely decorated including the comfy bed and modern en suite. They were very welcoming, even to the extent of booking us into the local pub for dinner. Their home was easy to find and the surrounding countryside was blissfully quiet. Would definitely book again if in the area!

Lesley was waiting for our arrival and when we did arrive she was super friendly and helpful. The house is a dream - beautiful and tastefully decorated. Breakfast was great too, with a selection of warmed croissants, cereal, yogurts and juice. A great place to stay! Thank you :)

Mavis was lovely and welcoming. She replied to all emails really quickly. We were touched when Mavis gave us some farm eggs to take home with us, a lovely goodbye. :-)

This is clearly what the host says it is so no surprises to the eccentric surroundings and uniqueness to this B and B and Mavis is a amazing, also interesting and very welcoming lady to her home with beautiful views and a working farm atmospherMonies Bab xxx LOVE Ue, from the moment I booked communication has been excellent and the welcome has been sublime, with log fire and tea and coffee on greeting us finishing with a hearty breakfast and farewell the following morning and we will be back and a massive thank you Mavis and to her husband for sharing your home

Had a lovely stay and Mavis is a great host.

Lovely place to stay. Very nice

Lovely farm setting, with traditional farmhouse furnishings, warm welcome and super breakfast.

Mavis was a really darling woman and her son was a sweetheart. We got lost and were coming from a long way, but even though we arrived quite later than expected we were greeted with smiles and our room was warm.

What a lovely lady Mavis is. If you are expecting 5 star luxury, this isn't the place for you. However, if you're expecting a warm welcome, cosiness and country views this is the place for you. It is a working farm so bare that in mind. Thankyou for a nice stay.

It's a little disturbing when you see the man of the house walking around in his underpants on more than one occasion. The kitchen is not fit for catering to guests.

We had an absolutely fantastic weekend here, Kevin and Tracy are attentive whilst also respecting your privacy, the facilities are fantastic and the place is very clean and well maintained, It provides great access for alton towers and is well situated for transport routes. Truly a great place, don't hesitate anymore, Book it!

Absolute gem Fantastic accommodation- huge - so tastefully furnished - real fun - pool table - dukebox - Kevin and Tracy have succeed in getting that balance of care attentiveness friendliness with privacy - brilliant- if your in the area - don't miss the opportunity

Very welcoming and friendly. A clean and tidy place to stay, very good value.

Great hosts Kevin and Tracy, clean place with everything necessary for a pleasant stay - and something in addition - impeccable services Highly recommended Paul, Cardiff

Great comfy and clean place, lovely people, great breakfast! Thanks!

I stayed at Ben's for one night during a work trip, and was Ben's first guest with Airbnb. He was very nice and gentle, offered me a warm soup for dinner and breakfast the following morning. The room was comfortable, with a double bed. And I could park on the drive. Thank you Ben!

House was clean and tidy, very relaxing location and would definately recommend.

We had a great two nights at this amazing barn. Has everything you would need. Set in a great location for discovering the Peak district. Pam was a wonderful host and we thoroughly enjoyed the homemade bread and cookies that awaited our arrival. We would definitely stay again Thank you

My partner and I had a stunning stay at Nether Farm Barns. Pam's barn exceeded our expectations in it's attention to detail. She left us a little basket with bread, home made cookies and eggs, and even popped a bottle of wine for us in the fridge! We stayed for a weekend and spent our Saturday walking through the peaks at Dovedale (only a 20 minute drive away max), and came back to a lovely fire. We visited a couple of pubs in nearby Ashbourne, but our favourite was The Old Dog in Thorpe. In the barn, Pam had put together an information box, with leaflets for all surrounding attractions and beauty points, and various walks. This included a list of local restaurants, pubs etc and her recommendations. I could babble on for ages about our 2 night stay, but overall we felt very welcome and very content. We'd certainly return to Nether Farm Barns, where we know we'd feel looked after, and where there is still plenty left for us to see in the lovely surrounding towns/villages.

Just back from a wonderful weekend at this gem of a barn! It can't be faulted and was everything we were after; compact but spacious, clean and really well styled. We were welcomed with some delicious homemade soda bread, eggs, milk, cookies etc. A lovely touch. We will definitely be recommending this property to friends and hope to return.

Fantastic stay - immaculate accommodation in a lovely setting - will definitely be back!

A two night stay at this wonderfully converted barn was just what we needed! Superb Finish, fixtures and fittings and decor made this a place to never forget! The wood burner made for a cosy and romantic atmosphere and the whole place felt like home straight away! We absolutely loved it! Well done Pam and the team!

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely little barn. A very peaceful place to stay, the barn had everything we could possibly need, as well as home baked bread and cookies! Would definitely recommend!

The barn was in a brilliant and picturesque location. Really close to Ashbourne but felt we were in the middle of the countryside. The accommodation was really tastefully finished with a very well equipped kitchen. Pam was really helpful in sourcing and setting up baby equipment for our 2 year old daughter. The bath in the bedroom is a great feature. The living space is very generous. Being greeted by fresh eggs, home made bread and cookies was something else! Thanks so much. We shall return!

We loved our stay at Nether Farm Barns! The farmhouse was so cute and actually much bigger than it appears in the pictures. The decor was lovely - especially the bath in the bedroom which felt quite boutique-like and everything was great quality. We were greater promptly on arrival and there were also fresh eggs and cookies waiting for us which was really sweet, along with bread, butter and milk for our stay. The area was lovely, just a short drive into town and lovely locations to visit nearby- with 'dovedale' and 'carsington water' about 10 minutes away which were beautiful. We're even thinking now about when we can come back! Thanks for a great stay!
