The Old Dairy in Hartington is a well-regarded cottage, praised for its high standard of furnishings, spaciousness, and prime location for village amenities and walking routes. Guests appreciate the property's cleanliness, comfort, and the bonus of a games room, though some noted minor maintenance issues and suggested improvements.
Cleanliness
Most guests found The Old Dairy to be very clean and well-kept, though a few mentioned finding cobwebs, food debris, and items left by previous visitors. These instances seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.
Location
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the village centre, local pubs, and walking trails. The scenic setting and ease of access to amenities contribute to its high rating.
Comfort
Guests consistently report that the cottage is comfortable, with luxurious beds and ample space for groups. Some feedback suggests room for improvement in certain areas, such as shower temperature consistency.
Facilities
The property is well-equipped with modern appliances and a games room. However, there are reports of maintenance issues like non-functional lights, dishwasher problems, and missing mirrors in bathrooms, which slightly lower the score.
Thoughtfulness
The welcome pack was well-received, indicating thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not consistently mentioned, it's important to note that such amenities are a pleasant addition but not guaranteed for every stay.
