Just a quick note to thank you and your team for a thoroughly enjoyable weekend - a repeat visit for a number of us. We all loved the barns, and the meals at the pub were delicious, with fantastic friendly service. It was great to have such cosy places to return to after some chilly walks and to have such well equipped kitchens to prepare our Christmas meal on Saturday night. Kind regards

Hi, We stayed this weekend at the Grange and just wanted to let you know what an amazing place you have and what a great time we all had. We will definitely be back and have already been spreading the word around work colleagues and friends. Thank you so much and Kelly is awesome. Truly a magical and warm place. See you soon, Craig, Andrew, Betty Westie) and Bob (Ginger Mongrel)

The properties were all exceptional and I enjoyed a very happy birthday celebration, thanks in no small part to the quality and offerings of the accommodation. We will look to come back again (I’ll try think of another milestone….), if only to try the Pub food – some of our party went and were effusive about the menu!

Allen, Nov 2011

Thank you so much, we had the most amazing weekend. The cottages were perfect and thought your service before and during were excellent. We were also very lucky with the weather!! The food at the pub was outstanding and quick to get out to us aswell, even though we all turned up for lunch on the Saturday after our walk without booking. After posting photo's on facebook I have already had a couple of people ask where the cottages were, so have passed on your details.

We will be back, when I can summon the energy to organise again.

Harrison, Oct 2011

We found everything very comfortable and clean - Hot water was plentiful. The location is superb and the 'party room' in Cruck'd barn was marvellous. It was good to have the 'games room' for a table tennis tournament - all in all an excellent weekend!Thanks again - we may well be back if we decide to re-visit the area.

Macdonald, Oct 2011

Just wanted to let you and your team know how much we enjoyed our recent stay at Amberleigh House (9/9 - 16/9). The accommodation was great. It was very well equipped and very comfortable. All in all we thought that Hurdlow Grange is a charming little venue and I hope that we will be able to come up and stay there again soon.

The food at the 'Oak' was awesome. We ate there 6 nights out of 7 and all enjoyed every mouthful. The food was consistently good on each visit and your team were always very welcoming, accommodating and really friendly. We did consider eating elsewhere but by the end of the week we were hooked on our 'Oak' fix every day.

So thanks Paul and hope to see you again one day. All the best

Orrel, Sep 2011

Once again, many thanks to you and your Team for the contribution to what was a special birthday weekend for my wife. You’ve got a great gig there, a great setting and a wonderfully laid out and presented set of houses, and we felt comfortable and at home from the outset. Many thanks again Paul, to you and your team. I’m so glad that we chose to stay with you.

George, Sep 2011

Many thanks for a great week, accommodation was excellent and even the weather was not too bad. The sun shone brightly on the day we needed it!

We will not be back for another wedding but will certainly be back for some R and R.

Hinchliffe, Aug 2011

We had an excellent time staying at Hurdlow Grange last weekend. It was a fun weekend had by all and the accommodation and its surroundings were perfect!

Rowe, Aug 2011

The Cottages are beatifully decorated and kept. The surrounding fields are lovely, specially if travelling with kids as cows and sheeps are in the front door. The place is isolated, The Royal Oak is almost a mille away. Cottages have a private patio area with BBQ, if the weather allows it! Having lunch or dinner in The Royal Oak is a must do, the food is wonderful!

Germanier, Jul 2011

We would like to say a big thank you to you and your team for looking after us so well and being so helpful with regard to our booking for the weekend of our joint 50th birthday celebration at Hurdlow Grange last weekend.

It felt like nothing was too much of a problem, whether it was agreeing to us having a marquee, or organising early access to erect the marquee, and for allowing us to make a bit of noise. We also thank you for all the advice with regard to Caterers. Ruth at Peak District Fine Foods provided excellent food and a great service.

We would like to praise the accommodation and facilities at Hurdlow Grange, all our friends were highly complementary of the houses, the bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchens. The Cruck’d Barn worked brilliantly as a social space for the whole group where we managed to assemble all 42 of us for drinks Friday evening, and Saturday evening after the music stopped.

As I said in our earlier email the whole weekend was brilliant, perfect in every way. Thank you once again for helping make our party such a success.

Mills, Jun 2011

We all had a wonderful weekend and will be recommending the Grange to friends and family.

Davis, Jun 2011

We had a great time at Th Grange, the set up was fantastic, also the Pub and meals were marvelous and very friendly and helpful staff.

Foster, May 2011

We all had a fantastic time. The venue was ideal - just a short walk to the local pub with stunning walks right on the doorstep. The accommodation was great. It was perfect for a large group with good sized bedrooms and living accommodation and with a well equipped kitchen with ample cutlery and crockery and a separate huge fridge for all our liquid refreshments!

The rooms were lovely and comfortable and everyone slept well and most were en suite, and the lounge and dining room easily catered for a large group.

There was good information provided about the accommodation, the local area, attractions and walks and the Management were eager to accommodate any requests we had.

Overall it was fabulous ... I couldn't have asked for anything better and would love to come back sometime in the future and I know a couple of my friends who also stayed are interested in coming back too. It was a perfect location for by birthday celebrations and it made the weekend very special.

Watson, Mar 2011

We had a fabulous weekend; over and over we heard how nice the cottages are, and people really enjoyed visiting the Peaks. Thanks for making our wedding celebrations run as smoothly as possible - we loved every minute of it.

Mean, Mar 2011

We all had an outstanding weekend, and we’re all looking forward to our next one already! I will certainly be recommending Hurdlow Grange to anyone who will listen!

Many thanks

Stewart, Feb 2011

Just got back home from lovely weekend in the Grange. Everyone really enjoyed themselves and both the house and pub were even better than expected. Huge thanks from us all and I'm sure we'll be back! Best wishes

Colville, Jan 2011

Dear Paul and the rest of the team

I would just like to thank you for the wonderful weekend at Hurdlow Grange. We all had a fantastic time and everyone was raving about the quality of the food and the excellent service at the Royal Oak.

Thanks for everything and we look forward to seeing you in December, if not before!

Downie, Jan 2011

Hi Paul and team, a brief note to thank you for a lovely break at The Grange, we have had a fantastic time. The Grange had all we needed to thoroughly enjoy ourselves over the new year period.

Savage, Dec 2010

We had a fab time and would not hesitate to recommend the property to all our friends, and the pub which we thoroughly enjoyed.

Banner, Nov 2010

Wonderful stay. Countryside just beautiful. Loved Cruck'd Barn and will come back again. Pub very good and would recommend. Chatsworth Fantastic.

Andrew & Family, Oct 2010

My friends bought me here for my 70th birthday. What a beautiful tranquil place. All very quiet and no alcohol consumed at all!! Fab position and location. Would hope we may return. We had a wonderful time and I loved all the properties.

Joan & Friends, Oct 2010

Lovely accommodation, the best cottage/barn we have ever stayed in. A great location convenient for visiting surrounding villages. We spent most of our time outdoors walking which was fantastic - wish we had had more time

Kelay, Sep 2010

We rented The Grange and Cruck'd Barn for a 50th birthday celebration with 22 friends and family and had an absolutely fabulous time. Some of the rooms in The Grange are slightly more spacious than in Cruck'd Barn but the wonderful 'party room' above the barn worked brilliantly and we prepared most of the food in the larger kitchen in The Grange. The setting is beautiful, totally peaceful and very safe for the two 10 year olds to wander around making friends with the cows!

We had lunch in the pub on Sunday, good quality and hearty portions.

Paul was so helpful both up to and during the weekend and we got the feeling that he genuinely wanted to make our stay as good as it possibly could be.

All of our guests thought the place was a real find. We would definitely go back again.

Ms K Schmidt, Jul 2010

Great, well equipped modern rooms in a beautiful period property. Fantastic views. Food in the Royal Oak pub down the road is excellent. Staff incredibly helpful.

Mr A Tull, Apr 2010

We are a small wind band and each year take a weekend music making break. We have been doing this for 14 years now and Hurdlow is one of the best venues we have yet found. Paul White and his team have done a brilliant job on the Grange and barns and we cannot recommend it highly enough.

Mr K Prosser, Jan 2010

I just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for a great weekend, 6th to 9th November, at Hurdlow Grange - a fantastic venue in a wonderful location for family and friends to celebrate a special birthday.

The accommodation was ideal, with room for people to have some of their own space through the different houses and the wonderful room for everyone to gather in Cruk'd Barn - it worked perfectly. We also had a great night at the pub on Friday and as well as the celebrations we were able to explore, walk and play golf - we managed to fit so much in!

Thank you for your help and for being so welcoming, it all added to a great weekend

Best regards

Libby, Nov 2009

We had a fantastic few days. The accommodation was perfect for our big family get-together, so thoughtfully designed and equipped. There was more than enough space for us all and we wanted for nothing.

The Royal Oak down the road was an ideal stop-off on our walks!

Clarke Family, Dec 2008

Hurdlow Grange was an excellent venue for our group of 22 walkers. We were able to eat together (at one time) albeit rather a tight fit. The Barn enabled us to meet together in one place in the evening and the Table Tennis table was popular and good fun.

We will be back again soon.

Mick Hayter, Kings Langley Walking Group, Oct 2008

Hurdlow Grange was a perfect venue for a large family reunion - 36 of us!

We rented four of the cottages including The Grange where the range cooker was sufficient to cook for all of us on and where we ate in two shifts, children first and then adults.

The Cruk'd Barn had a great upstairs area to gather in and plenty of crockery and cutlery was provided in the cottages.

The games room was a hit with the youngest family members

Ruth Wilkinson, Oct 2008

Thank you so much for all your help at the weekend and for making our stay at Hurdlow Grange so very special.

We all had the most wonderful time both at the Grange and the pub. The welcome, food and service on Saturday was second to none and really was the icing on the cake of the weekend.

The Grange is gorgeous and perfect for our needs. We hope to book again next year for a hen reunion!

We will all be telling everyone we know how amazing it was.

Thanks so much to you and your staff. Compliments to the chef also - the fish pie will be talked about for years to come!

Emma (and all the other Hens), Oct 2008

Hurdlow Grange is an excellent place for group celebrations - we found it had a great atmosphere and wonderful ambience. In particular the large barns with those vaulted ceilings were a perfect setting for the formal drinks and meal and the smaller barns allowed more intimate gatherings. Without exception all our party (35 plus) enjoyed the weekend immensely. It goes without saying that having the Peak District on the doorstep is fantastic.

The food and service were superb (Top Nosh Caterers) - quietly efficient and unobtrusive. Coped brilliantly with our requests for two sittings (children and adults).

Elliot's 50th Birthday Party, Oct 2008

This year we celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary and we wanted to do something special with all our family. Finding a place for 6 children, their spouses and 25 grandchildren plus their husband and friends was not easy and we are so grateful that we found Hurdlow Grange early to enable us to take over the site.

The standard of accommodation was excellent and above our expectations, everything was how we had hoped which contributed significantly towards such a wonderful week. Everyone was well satisfied, the cottages were well appointed, the young ones found plenty to amuse themselves and the adults enjoyed barbeques and long evenings catching up on each other.

We were fortunate to have good weather with only one day of rain and we found lots to do in the area. Canoeing, rock climbing, cycling, walking and exploring were just some of the activities we packed into the week.

We cannot thank Paul and his team enough for making this such an enjoyable week.

Elvidge Party, Aug 2008

I celebrated my 40th birthday at Hurdlow with around 20 friends and it was

great; very comfortable, well equipped and the living space in Cruck'd Barn

is fantastic. The lovely space meant we could all sit around and also have

meals together comfortably. Everyone commented on how nice it was and it

really is how it looks in the photos.

We had a great stay and I had a really good birthday.

Claire Wilson

Thanks for a smashing time - this is a lovely location and was just the ticket for a family get together.

Very, very good. Well done.

Beautiful barn, a pleasure to spend time indoors as well as out doors. A good idea I felt was to have two extra chairs for when large groups of people are in.

A really well thought out place to stay, everything feels like it has been thought through , we've had a really good time here! Would deffo stay again!

A luxurious place to spend a family Christmas - great facilities in fantastic surroundings. Loved the opportunity to play table tennis. Coasters for the tables may help to protect the lovely wood.

We all loved the cottages and had a fantastic time. They have been beautifully put together and no-one wanted to leave! Thought they were really well equipped and were particularly lovely for a group get together - we were here for a birthday and New Year and it was great that a large group could spend time together so comfortably. We would love to come back.

An excellent venue for a relaxing few days in a well equipped cottage. Ideal centre for walking holidays, will be back.

Fantastic venue - superb cottage. V-well equipped, a real 'home from home'. Great to see the 'hunt' as hounds chased the hare through the grounds of the cottages! Special thanks for the seasonal touches of the tree and wine - really appreciated. All the way from Australia for Christmas. Only disappointment NO SNOW!!

Bloody Brilliant! Thank you very much!

Had a great week even though the weather was a bit windy. New Years Eve was fantastic. But beware of the ghost of the horse that died one time.
