    The only real negative was we couldn't let the dogs off lead in the garden.

    The location was perfect with walks near by and village a short trip in the car. You could walk to the local shops if a keen hiker. There were also some interesting places to visit near by.

    There is nothing I can say we didn't like.

    We were left with a welcome pack of essentials including bread, milk, pastries, cereals and fruit. This was in addition to usual kitchen stock items you really appreciate at properties e.g. salt and pepper, oil, sauces. Host arranged celebratory banner and balloons as well which was a lovely touch!

    Absolutely no negatives - All positive!

    The property was clean, comfortable, very well equipped, and surprisingly spacious! We really enjoyed the views of the countryside and the wildlife. The location was great for exploring the Peak District and beyond. We visited Buxton, Bakewell, Hathersage, Castleton, Bolsover Castle, Manchester and Barnsley... plus many spots in-between! The hosts were brilliant in ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Hartcliffe Retreat to anyone looking to stay in the area.

    we could not fault the property

    On arrival our host Lynne had balloons, a card and flowers waiting for us for my wife’s 50th which was the purpose of our trip. The generosity of the welcome pack was also gratefully received. The property itself is fantastic so spacious and furnished to the highest standard with beautiful the views and surroundings. Penistone is a lovely little place and there are lots of walks nearby

    The house is remote and quite with beautiful views. It was a lot bigger than expected and was spotless! The hosts thought of everything and more. The kitchen was well equipped and we were left some breakfast items such as cereal, milk, bread, fruit and eggs which was a lovely touch. We felt very welcomed as soon as we arrived and it had a homely feel. The check in process was very easy with great communication before we arrived. There is enough parking for 2-4 cars. The showers were good and the beds were comfortable. There are lots of beautiful walks close by.

    Nothing at all.

    An amazing view of the Penines but what we loved the best was the home away from home feel. There were essential fridge items provided, that makes all the difference when you have had a long journey. Prior to arrival there was a lot of communication from the host and during our stay we appreciated the lovely Yorkshire hospitality, checking that we had all we needed. We would love to return.

    Oven thermostat wasnt working well and some hobs, which made cooking interesting, but loved staying here. Wifi was not usable but provided us a great escape from screens! Tap in the kitchen was dreadful and took ages to fill the kettle or wash up.

    Loved the amount of space it offered us. Location was fantastic as it wasnt full of tourists but so close to the Peak District. Lovely and clean and lovely little touches. Our son loved the zip line and great selection of games. We loved the nearby reservoir where our dog and disabled father could walk together for a change.
