Property code: PK455

This charming barn conversion is located at the heart of the Peak District, making it the ideal destination for guests wishing to explore the dramatic landscape and pretty villages in the area. Full of traditional features, this one-bedroom property is the perfect getaway for couples and their canine companions to enjoy the many countryside walks on offer straight from the front door. Stroll to the village pub where human and canine visitors are welcome to dine or sample the famous pudding at nearby Bakewell.

 

With exposed beams and a charming exposed stone wall, the living room is a cosy space to unwind in after a long walk along the riverbank. When it’s time to rest the paws, upstairs is a lovely double bedroom with en-suite. Your furry friend will enjoy exploring the patio garden, a lovely spot to sip a glass of wine. If you choose to holiday with friends, this cottage can be booked with the neighbouring property to sleep up to four guests in total.

 

With walks of all level accessible from your door step, there will be new routes to discover every day of your stay. Spot grayling and brown trout as you enjoy a relaxing riverbank walk at Baslow (2 miles) before choosing one of the dog-friendly pubs or cafes to take a break in. Spend the day exploring the Curbar Edge, a challenging ridgeway walk that takes you past waterfalls and an ancient stone circle. For a more leisurely walk, take your hound for a stroll around the pretty town of Bakewell (5 miles), sniffing out the medieval courtyards and dog-friendly cafes where you can treat yourself to a slice of the town’s famous dessert.

We had a lovely time at the lower barn. My husband and I, as well as our dog, had a great time exploring the surrounding area. There is a great circular walk right next to the cottage that was perfect. Phil was prompt with his help telling us where we could park. It's not complicated just our brains weren't working after a day of driving!
