Guests say
Spingle Barn in Bakewell is highly praised for its spaciousness, comfort, and excellent location, ideal for exploring the Peak District. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, including a games room and utility room, and the thoughtful touches like a fruit bowl and homemade cake on arrival. While there are minor concerns about cleanliness and maintenance, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests planning to return.
Most guests found Spingle Barn to be clean and well-maintained, though there were isolated comments about areas needing more attention, such as under beds and kitchen cleanliness. These seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.
The location is consistently praised for its beauty and convenience, with easy access to local pubs, cafes, and scenic walks right from the doorstep. It is considered an ideal base for exploring the surrounding Derbyshire countryside.
Guests report the barn to be very comfortable, with spacious en-suite bedrooms and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The underfloor heating and log fire add to the comfort, although there was a minor issue with bed configuration.
The property is well-equipped for large groups, with a games room and ample outdoor space. However, there were some concerns about maintenance issues such as the dishwasher and pool table, and suggestions for improvement like adding a lock to the bike shed.
Many guests mentioned and appreciated the thoughtful gestures such as welcome packs with wine, cakes, and fruit. It is noted that these gifts, while appreciated, are not guaranteed for every stay.

Monyash is a delightful village, the surrounding countryside is supreme and the barn was very well equipped and comfortable for the 4 couples and a dog that made up our family party.

So spacious. Lovely enclosed garden, perfect for the dogs. The property has been converted, fitted out and furnished to a high standard. It has everything we needed. The games room is an added bonus. Andrea responded to us very quickly when we had a minor wasp issue outside. Monyash is such a pretty village. The cottage is just a short stroll to the excellent village pub. The little cafe and store on the village green is also a great find. Lovely packed lunches to take on our many long walks in the surrounding countryside. Definitely recommend a stay at Spingle Barn.
