Manor House, Chesterfield

An accurate listing of the facilities would provide even better knowledge prearrival eg, we were delighted to find 2 ovens and 2 kettles which made catering for 810 people so much easier. The Manor House has very spacious rooms and living accommodation, all is decorated to a very nice standard. Outside space is extensive, easy to park 6 cars, our 3 year old loved the swings slide and play house. Hot tub was well used by the adults. Everywhere was clean and easy to keep so.

Beautiful place to stay and relax. Had everything you need for a family gathering which included a baby and toddler . Plenty of indoor space with a fantastic kitchen and dining area or relaxing in the living room . The outside space and views were amazing ,plenty of room for children to run around and a hot tub to relax in.

The cottage was the perfect place to celebrate my 70th birthday. It was a beautiful house with lovely gardens and had everything we could possibly have needed , including shower seats which were really helpful for my husband who had mobility problems. We were a mixed group from aged 5 to 85 but there was something to keep everybody happy. I would definitely recommend this property .

Fabulous property with lots of space for children. Kitchen is well equipped and you have a choice of 4 bathrooms. Hot tub is great and very clean. Great area to explore and this is a perfect base for a large group. Perfect.

We were four generations staying here, during which we celebrated an 89th birthday. The accommodation is spread over one level with easy access for a Mobilty walker through the front entrance and rear patio door. The hot tub was well used. There is an excellent pub, the Three Cottages within walking distance. I would say that the photographs do not do justice to the Manor House. It is nicer than they would suggest. Thank you to the owners who left well appreciated gifts.

Property well furnished and maintained. Doors and corridors wide enough to take a wheelchair or rollator. Extra facilities gym and hottub appreciated by some members of our party. Electronically controlled gate ensures privacy. I would definitely recommend this as a holiday home.

Overall we had a great stay at Manor House. the house is a lovely size and the new hot tub was great! The grounds around the property are also beautiful. Unfortunately, the property wasnt as clean as wed hoped when we arrived, we had to wipe all of the surfaces down, brush crumbs off the sofa and hoover the living room.

Great property, lots of space, fabulous kitchen, beautifully maintained and very warm. We would highly recommend.

We were a party of 4 couples aged late 60's 70's some less mobile than others. The Manor house was perfect for us. The seating and beds were extremely comfortable. The professional chef in our party was very impressed with the kitchen and all it's utensils. We had only been there 3 days when we booked again for next year.

If I could give 4. 5 I would have , the reason for losing marks on cleanness cobwebs which we removed , windows we cleaned them in the kitchen , A full loaded dishwasher that had to be emptied and it was really stacked I dont expect to have to do that and the bbq was disgraceful , green furry mould on the grill .clearly this has not been looked at for ages so cant blame the previous guests. Another couple of things the internal jacuzzi had not been cleaned when it was switched on it covered the children in black slime we had the clean it ourselves , finally there was a leak in the bathroom near the utility from the toilet , we reported it and service was excellent repaired same day . All of that aside this would be a 5!star property , quality of the fixtures and fittings are great , well Stocked kitchen with utensils, plates, glasses and cutlery . Masses of space for families or friends not to fairly on top of each other . Ample parking , massive outdoor space with the immaculate hot tub and childrens play area . We would book property again as Im sure the points Ive feedback on will be acted on seeing how well they dealt with the leak . Overall loved this property , location and feel of the place it has the wow factor from the moment you drive along the road to it , it is stunning ! You wont be disappointed booking a holiday here .

We greatly enjoyed our stay a perfect location to get the family together for a belated Christmas celebration. The Manor House is spacious, comfortable, wellequipped and furnished to a high standard. The hot tub was much appreciated and wellused! We would certainly stay again and recommend to anyone looking for a larger property in a rural location

We had a fabulous family Christmas at Manor House. Plenty of space, fabulous kitchen, spacious lounge and we really enjoyed the hot tub morning, noon and night! Was great for our elderly relatives and would be idea for any wheelchair users too. Close to Bakewell and Chatsworth for trips out, lots of shops and supermarkets nearby for supplies too. The house had been decorated up for Christmas and one small maintenance issue was dealt with swiftly and kindly. Would highly recommend and we hope to return again.

Overall a fantastic stay with the family. It was a joint special birthday and Xmas gettogether and the place was great. Very roomy and overall pretty clean. Some areas are looking a little worn such as some wear and stains in carpets and bathroom areas but overall very nice. Highly recommended and would stay again.

Absolutely fantastic property. The addition of the hot tub just topped it. ! Perfect for family gathering where everyone can be comfortable and have there own space.

This is the second time weve stayed at the property and we love staying here as its perfect for our family gathering. The children aged 49 love the space and the garden. The hot tub is a great addition! The owner was very helpful with our extra requests. Well definitely be booking again.

This property is even more beautiful than on the website photos. Its so spacious, our grandchildren throughly enjoyed running the length of the huge corridor and had a great time exploring the garden too. The adult members enjoyed the gym facilities too. Definitely, a super place to visit with an extended family. The underfloor heating meant the house was very warm despite its size, at times a bit too warm as it seemed wasteful to open the windows and doors but this was the only way to bring down the temperature.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. So impressed by the property. All our family loved it although a ten o clock check out was a bit too early for eight people plus a baby.

Absolutely stunning house loved our week here so much space for the 6 adults and 3 children would absolutely recommend this house for any large groups. The owner rang us to make sure that the house was up to standard and adding a hot tub later in the year will be a definite bonus. We had the most amazing time also meeting up with family who live around there.

The owners need to spend money on the property. It is showing signs of age, the mat by door is worn out, warming drawer is not working, dishwasher tray wheels missing, bench cover ripped, pendant light in kitchen appears to be hanging from it's wires, treadmill not working unable to open door from gym, bathroom for two bedrooms lock needs adjusting, mixture of colours in pendant lights in 4 of the bedrooms, master ensuite doors to patio locked and no keys, surely the hot water problem could be solved with a cylinder in the cupboard in the bedroom! We booked this property to take our family away for our golden wedding anniversary! It is nearing breaking the trades description.

We had a lovely week with the family staying in The Manor House. What a fabulous property! It is well equipped, beautifully appointed and very clean. There was everything we needed for a week away together, to relax and enjoy spending time together. Also, close to local amenities and attractions, which makes it ideal for a mix of relaxation and taking days out

Firstly can I say that the property met our needs to have a family holiday with our 3 children their partners and 2 grandchildren. The space was great! and the weather helped. It's proximity to the Derbyshire Dales and Chatsworth House gardens are amazing was a real benefit. The beds were comfortable and the fans provided helped during the hot weather. We had no problems with bathrooms etc. BBQ was awesome! I would like to make some minor comments for the owner just around some 'tiredness' to certain aspects that could be resolved at minimal cost. 1 The swing and play slide needs some attention it was fine for our 4 yr old and 2 yr old, but was creaking with an 8 yr old. Some remedial repairs are needed before it falls apart. 2 The TV speakers were 'blown' I suspect they have been played at high level in the past and been damaged they are fine at lower volume levels but are distorted at higher volumes. I would recommend a new modern smarter TV with a sound system that also has bluetooth connectivity for playing music. 3 Gym was great, treadmill fine for walking paces but sounded like the bearings were falling to pieces at running speeds with someone on . Suggest a bit of maintenance required might just need greasing! 4 Provide an indoor airer a stand up rack would do or a ceiling mounted rack. The tumble drier was fine but an airer is more ecofriendly and would save you some pennies in the long run. 5 Very minor but the master bedroom which my wide and I used only has a double bed in it. The room is huge and looks like it originally had a king size in it from socket layout Suggest put a king size bed in! 6 Finally we vacuumed during the week. Initially the supplied Dyson vacuum was useless and had no suction. Luckily I am an engineer and like a challenge. During the week we washed and dried both filters in the vacuum Should be done every 3 months after which the vacuum was fine your welcome!. 7 Some cleaning products might be helpful we bought our own kitchen degreaser and antibac for our stay but if you want to hit the luxury tag then perhaps provide something. 8 Garden is amazing find someone who likes gardening and let them have a go at the beds they could be stunning. 9 I would removesell the greenhouse. It is not being used, is a bit of an eyesore and is potentially dangerous for young children. Get yourself some cash for it! 10 We bought reclining garden chairs with us. Perhaps provide 4 reclining chairs or 4 sun loungers for the huge patio area! Again hit that luxury tag I hope the above is taken in the right way! None of the above really adversely impacted our stay the house did the job but if you want to 'hit the nail' then I politely suggest you consider the above all of which are not costly ticket items and these did cross our minds during the week!

The property is superb, spacious, very well equipped, luxurious and ideal for our family get together.

Excellent accomdation

This is our 2nd stay here again excellent accommodation perfect for all our needs!

The property and grounds were amazing. My family and I enjoyed a very relaxing weekend and such a lovely place to celebrate my special birthday. The welcome gifts were a lovely touch and much appreciated. I would highly recommend Manor House to anyone.

Had amazing time at this place. Would highly recommend it to anyone.

This property is amazing the furnishing and the setting of the house are gorgeous . Also the owner is so obliging and great service.

Overall the cottage was as per our last visit, however we think that the cleaning was not up to scratch, especially the kitchen and lounge where there was a lot of dust and cobwebs both on the floor and ceiling, several toilet seats need attention. The kitchen could do with more equipment especially mixing bowls and scales. More glass tumblers would also be good. That said we had another great stay our 3rd and will be looking to book again.

As two families totalling 10 people, we needed large accommodation and Manor House was perfect. It was spacious, clean, very well presented and had everything we needed. Good location for access to the Peaks and shops nearby for topping up food stocks. Asda driver found the property with no problem for a food delivery. The kitchen was well equipped, especially as we did eat in every night. The only point we would make is, we felt the football table may have been better placed in a different area of the house, our children are aged between 14 and 6 so it was difficult if the teenagers wanted to play football and the younger ones wanted to watch a film. We would definitely stay at Manor House again and highly recommend.

This was our third time at The Manor House. We are a family group of five couples and having 5 separate bathrooms is perfect for us. Theres also a dining table big enough to seat us all for evening meals. Our only comment is that the house is always far too hot. We had to open all the windows in order to get it to a comfortable temperature as the control panels didnt appear to work. Otherwise its a great house for a group of people.

We booked The Manor House because one of our party is disabled and we needed to be on one level. We found the Manor House very well equipped for our needs but also for children it's spacious, private and secure with a large garden it would be an excellent venue for a gathering of family or friends or both.

Fantastic space for our family. Bungalow was perfect for our little one to run around with no stairs All of the rooms and living areas were generous. We'll be back!

We had a lovely stay at the Manor House. It was perfectly suited to the various needs of different members of our party. It was very easy for a grandparent who had mobility issues, as there were no steps or uneven surfaces. The open plan bathrooms also made it easy for showering. The beds were all very comfortable and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. The outside seating was a pleasure to relax in, with views over the fields. Would definitely recommend, especially to those with mobility issues.

We had a wonderful family get together at Manor House and would certainly return again if the opportunity arose. The accommodation is very spacious and with 10 of us staying there 6 adults and 4 children aged 416 we by no means felt on top of each other. The grounds are also fantastic with plenty of space for playing and relaxing outdoors. The house is very well equipped. The only things we felt were lacking were some kitchen scales and a few more pegs for hanging out washing. All in all, we had a very comfortable stay here and would highly recommend this holiday home.

We found that the exterior of the property no to be particularly child friendly. Here's why..... There's an empty glass greenhouse to the side which is very dangerous should the children have run in to it. lots of stinging nettles & brambles close to the wendy house and the play equipment. On another note, with the amount paid to hire the property it is the first time we have ever had to strip the bed linen from all the beds and collect all the towels ready for the cleaners..... surely that's what they get paid for!!

The Manor House was a great space for our multi generational group of ten. Our four grand children aged between 5 and 10 yrs old had lots of fun playing in the house and beautifully kept, safe grounds. The table football in the lounge was also a big hit. The house was generally clean and well equipped with comfy beds and pristine linens and ideal for a large group like ours. However as it was our home for the week I did clean the worst of the marks off the kitchen cabinet fronts and lounge carpet, which took minutes. I agree with the previous review that the house especially the carpets, kitchen and patio furniture need a good clean and minor repairs completed like the torn bench seat in the kitchen. worn toilet set underside in the first bedroom, dripping tap in the master ensuite bath and very stiff catches on the bedroom doors. Despite the above I would recommend the house especially for a large group as we had a thoroughly enjoyable week, loved the space in the house and there are good local amenities, pub, chip shop, park and shops a few minutes away. The house is also an ideal base for exploring the Peak District and popular attractions are a short distance away. This lovely house just needs a little bit of extra care and attention to bring it back up to it former five star rating.

The property was beautiful, with adequate space for 10 people who could comfortably live together without feeling on top of each other. I felt the property was clean, but could do with a deep clean. I appreciate in a property of this size, a deep clean is not possible in the 6 hour turnaround time, however I do feel this is needed. Its small things, the bathrooms were clean, but a lot of cobwebs and spiders in the corners. The kitchen sinks could do with a good bleach, and the carpets looked like they would benefit from a shampoo. Lastly, some additional pegs for hanging washing would be fab. The toilet in the bathroom in the utility area wouldnt flush, my husband being a plumber managed to flush it and avoid embarrasment for the relative using it, but just a heads up that this would need attended to. Overall we had a fantastic time and wouldnt hesitate to stay again.

Very spacious and clean throughout. Everything we needed, especially the shower chair , which was extremely helpful, thank you.
