Eyam Top Barns are located at the end of quiet lane close to the Riley Graves, where the Hancock family are buried, victims of the 1665 plague.

The house and cottages are set in 20 acres of quiet rural grounds, with a mixture of pasture and woodland. A short walk will take you into the village of Eyam with good village amenities.

There are some stunning views of Froggatt, Curbar and Baslow Edges and the surrounding countryside from the property with distant views of Chatsworth House.

The hillside location gives easy access to local footpaths that lead to riverside walks along the Derwent valley, up to the Edges, or into nearby Middleton Dale and beyond. Fabrics, furnishings and finishes have been carefully coordinated for each cottage.

Clara, Clarice and Clementine Cottages are at the same location and will be available early in 2008.

This roomy cottage is finished in a country style with entry into the open plan kitchen, dining and lounge area, and has limestone flagged floors with under floor heating, adding to its warmth. In addition there is a log burning stove inset in a beautiful Derbyshire random stone wall.

The lounge window takes in the views of the nearby Froggatt, Curbar and Baslow Edges and there are double glazed doors that open onto the private patio sitting area.

Also on the ground floor is the main shower room, with shower cubicle, hand basin and toilet.

The stairs lead to the first floor and the two bedrooms, both with sloping ceilings that adds to their charm. The main bedroom has a double bed and views across the surrounding countryside, the second bedroom has two single beds.

There is also a cloakroom on this floor with toilet and hand basin.
