Roman Farm Reviews

Alex
We booked this place for my mum’s 80thand it was perfect for everyone - young and old. The views are breathtaking, with no neighbours around, just rolling hills and fields. The house is gorgeousand the golf course, hot tuband pool table kept us busy for days. The kitchen disco was a hit too! Already looking forward to booking again next year. Thanks so much, Marie and Annie!
Alex Turner
We loved the peaceful setting, it really felt like a retreat from everything. Plenty of outdoor space for games and a big hot tub to unwind. The house was comfyand everyone enjoyed the pool table. The kitchen was spacious with two sofas, but the main sitting area wasn’t that large for more than six people. Still, a great stay!
Oliver
The house is massive, easily fits around 18 peopleand has plenty of spaces for both hanging out and relaxing alone. Footy Golf was a real highlight too!
Emma
We had an amazing stay at this charming farm. The place was spotlessand the owner was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit!
Oliver
We had a lovely stay at Burrs Farm. The comfort and facilities were spot onand it was easy to explore nearby towns and countryside. The dining room was perfect for our groupand the well-equipped kitchen meant we could cook comfortably. Toiletries in every bathroom and plenty of space for games too!

We had a fantastic time! The views were truly breathtakingand the house exceeded all expectations. Honestly, the pictures don’t do it justice - it’s even more stunning in real life.
James
The owner Annie was so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Burr's Farm is perfect for big groups, even when it’s pouring! Great spot close to Buxton and Bakewell, with lovely walks nearby.
Clara
This property is excellent, with plenty of amenities and space for large groups. We all had a fantastic time! The Foot Golf was a hit with the kids, along with the pool table and gamesand the hot tub was great even in winter! The rear garden and outbuildings could do with a bit of TLC and better enclosure, like proper gates. Would we come back? A definite YES! Everyone had a brilliant time, all 18 of us!
