Not as advertised; nothing resembling the reviews. No food available as advertised, close or refurbish!
Pros:

Nothing!

Cons:

Nothing; not as advertised. No food, evening meal or breakfast available, despite advertising both. Limited drinks available, both alcoholic and soft, no ice.
Bedding was poor and pillows looked awful.

Very friendly hosts but could have been better
Pros:

There was no breakfast x kitchen being set up. The staff were friendly and very helpful

Cons:

The duvet covers weren’t ironed and the pillows seemed old. There was no hot water and though they sought hard to fix it , couldn’t. Shower worked, though . For price , could have included breakfast. We suggested a discount because of water - unforthcoming.

Pros:

The landlady was new to the Farmyard and gave us a very warm welcome. The room was pleasant and quiet despite being so handy for everything in Youlgreave. We had breakfast a few minutes away but assume it will be available at the Farmyard sometime soon.

Cons:

No meals available but fingers crossed that this is only a temporary problem.

Awful place
Pros:

Location of the property

Cons:

The accommodation. The 'host' was not aware of the booking, despite booking through Booking.com & communicating to someone via email. Non apologetic host, had to wait for them to prepare room. The room was awful, filthy bathroom with hairs everywhere & crap on the toilet seat, it stank of sewers. Nil cleaning. No food available as Kitchen had been 'condemned'....hosts words. SHOULD NO LONGER BE ADVERTISED ON HERE

Lovely location, great potential. Right now, a waste of money.
Pros:

Friendly welcome from manager, nice staff. Good location. Lots of parking. Fun farmyard room names.

Cons:

Far too expensive for what you get. What follows may sound nit picky, but it hopefully illustrates some of the problems: Uncomfortable old mattresses, no hot water in Pigsty room, tiny TVs, random furniture and empty packaging left in hallway. No one around at check out. Would have preferred to raise these problems in person.

We understand the Inn is under new ownership, (distinct from the management and staff, who we met). They clearly opened too early or should have offered a significantly discounted rate to reflect the unready state of things.

They need to sort their place out
Cons:

WiFi should have been working.
A toilet seat that fitted
A waste bin should be available
Provided Tea bags in a cup but when using the cup the tea bags are on the surface, a container is not too much to ask.
No one available for a 8am check out.
TV smaller than a lap top screen
Nothing good to say, not a good experience and at £130 per night which did not include breakfast is extremely expensive compared to every other establishment we stayed at on our walking holiday

Ok place but needs to install working WiFi as no G network available
Pros:

Rooms functional.

Cons:

Wifi just did not work. And could not get 4 or 5 G on any network. So could not watch a film nor F1! They should fix this.
