Lovely barn conversion is sat in the heart of a working dairy farm. The owners have taken great care and attention to ensure the barn provides you with everything you need for a home from home stay.

Experience country life without sacrificing any degree of comfort, staying in this contemporary cottage on the owner’s very own working dairy farm. Surrounded by the Heart of England’s beautiful countryside and with nothing but the sound of grazing cows to wake up to each morning, this property is the perfect base for a small group hoping to escape to the country. Sleeping four guests across two inviting bedrooms, the property ideally lends itself to a family or pair of couples holidaying together. Step out and explore the Peak District’s ever-changing scenery close by or visit Derbyshire’s quaint nearby market towns.

Recently renovated to the highest of standards, this barn conversion is bright, cheerful and extremely spacious. Head inside and find the hub of the house: its open-plan kitchen/diner. Equipped with a farmhouse-inspired range oven and a generous kitchen table, this space is your go-to spot for plotting walking routes and planning out days ahead, all over a hearty meal, of course. Continue through into the lounge where French doors lead out to the patio and let light flood in. You’ll no doubt sink into the sofas at the end of each day, eager to put your feet up after a day of adventure.

Located on the brink of the famous Peak District National Park (3 miles), you’ll never find yourself short of glorious walks and hikes throughout your stay. Discover the Limestone Way, a 46-mile route which crosses through the village of Bonsall, just 5 miles away. Whilst in the area, be sure to visit Matlock (2 miles), a traditional town with the River Derwent running through as well as plenty of amenities. For an unbeatable day out, be sure to visit nearby Chatsworth House (9 miles) and explore its history, pretty gardens and delightful parklands.
