The accommodation was exactly what we needed for a great family holiday.

The accommodation was exactly what we needed for a great family holiday. I gave a 9 equipment because the cooker unfortunately burns the food on the gas underneath before it’s cooked on top and the electric side doesn’t seal properly.The games room could be insulated as it is quite cold.The space bedroom could do with more draws. These are small things but would make it perfect. It was very homely and I definitely recommend it. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

We had an enjoyable holiday this house is excellent for families. Unfortunately the replacement pool cover had not arrived And the pool was not as warm as we expected however having the pool as part of the house was excellent for the children some mats outside the pool would have helped water to be contained as the floor was wet and very slippery. For the amount of people the house caters for the rubbish facilities were not adequate larger bin capacity outside is vital we felt. Overall a great place and we would return Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Beautiful place, lots to do inside so the only thing we really needed from surrounding area was a shop which was quite a trek or drive for someone. All amenities were excellently cared for only one issue was that a few of the kids with us ended up with cuts on their feet from the pool, we think it might be from slightly jagged edges on the steps in. Would highly recommend as there is something for all and big enough for some peace and quite if needed.

The house is beautiful and well equipped to entertain a large group.

The house is beautiful and well equipped to entertain a large group. The only comments we would make are in respect of the internet, which didnt work and wasn't fixed until half way through our break; this did impact our stay as we struggled with the kids who couldn't watch their ipads, it also meant I was unable to work as planned and meant we couldn't watch the movies we wanted during the evenings. We had great use of the games room, although the dart board/darts has a lot of wear and could do with updating but having a house with a pool was amazing and we enjoyed using it every day; it was beautifully warm and a great size. I have to admit we thought the games/cinema/tv areas were all separate rooms from the photos on the website but in fact they are just areas within the same living space which have been sectioned off. Having the kids games area in the living space area is nice, but the cinema room in an open space beside the tv room meant it was tough to hear them when they were both on. The sky box can only be viewed on one screen at a time, so you cant watch different sky channels plus the sky box is over on the cinema side, so you had to be over that side to control it. The negative comments are only due to expectations as the house appears quite premium and is expensive. But the facilities are lovely, and it's close to the town. It's well equipped with towels and pillows and little extras like colouring pencils for the kids. Lots of fridge and kitchen cupboard space. Also, they responded quickly to our complaints regarding the internet, the delay getting it sorted was due to the IT companies technical teams delay due to opening days and troubleshooting time.

Excellent location, just a walk into the town centre.

Excellent location, just a walk into the town centre. swimming pool and pool room are lovely and warm and all areas are spacious with lots of storage and refrigeration. The housekeeping staff are nice and friendly and the gardens are large enough. If I was being picky I'd prefer a door into the master en-suite rather than open plan and vehicle entrance in and out can be difficult with cars parked on the main road but overall we had a lovely time.

Lovely house with the highlight being the swimming pool - enjoyed regularly by all 3 generations, especially in the wet weather. Smallish garden but ok for our needs. Parking is on a slope which was tricky at times. House needs some minor repairs and refurbishment to bring it up to scratch. However we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

A fantastic house more spacious than the images show.

A fantastic house more spacious than the images show. The location being 6 mins walk to the lovely town of buxton is great. The Clubhouse pub is great for good value tasty meals just down the hill. We spent a lot of time in the lovely heated pool which is also bigger than we thought. We watched all our TV in the cinema room which was brilliant. Only improvements could be a hanging rail in one of the bedrooms that is missing a wardrobe and new mattresses or toppers in the twin beds in the space room. Kids loved the 2 PS4's. Any small problems were dealt with promptly. Four bathrooms meant plenty of space for our family of 9 and the games room a fantastic added bonus!!! Would definitely stay again...and hope to.

Lovely, spacious property, very open plan and of course the pool was excellent. Couple of issues, eg the main kitchen tap very stiff, dodgy chair, both oven and TV system somewhat complicated (maybe a freeview option on the downstairs tv) and couldn't find scissors anywhere. Could perhaps do with blackout blinds in upstairs twin. There's an extra shower/toilet behind the cinema room that came in useful and the game's room was a lot of fun. Cleaner friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Sometimes places don't live up to expectations but this was not the case with Moorecroft. The swimming pool was perfect and we all enjoyed using it. The cinema room was great for family entertainment when the weather was bad and the games room also came in handy. The property is spacious and comfortable and well equipped. We would have no hesitation in returning.

We had an enjoyable week in Moorecroft and the swimming pool was a great hit with both children and adults. Moorecroft is within walking distance of the centre of Buxton, where there are a number of restaurants and Supermarkets. We particularly enjoyed the the Buxton Brewery Tap Room!
