Perched on a quiet country lane in the Derbyshire countryside, you’ll find countless scenic walks surrounding this charming, family-friendly barn conversion; the Peak District National Park awaits just a stick’s throw from the doorstep.

If you’ve got plenty of energy left at the end of a busy day, hang up the leash before letting off some steam in the games room which features an American pool table. Flooded with plenty of natural sunlight, the spacious lounge boasts a truly peaceful atmosphere that invites tired toes and paws to unwind amongst the soothing crackle of the roaring wood burner. Lead the way into the sophisticated adjoining kitchen/diner to tame the growl of hungry tummies by whipping up some tasty treats. When you finally pause from chasing your tail, retire to the crisp, white linens of the ground floor king-size bedroom, or head upstairs to the en-suite king-size bedroom, twin bedroom or king-size bedroom on the split-level floor; tail-wagging views ensure a dreamy rest. From sunrise to sunset, the enclosed patio garden offers the perfect quiet spot for playful pups to pad around as you enjoy dining alfresco. Outside, you’ll also find private parking for five cars.

Nestled between Uttoxeter and Ashbourne, the sleepy village of Ellastone boasts a variety of footpaths to explore on foot or two wheels if your four-legged friend can keep up. Known as the gateway to Dovedale, take the lead to the vibrant market town of Ashbourne (5.5 miles) to sniff out the best local produce this area has to offer with its many welcoming shops, galleries and cafes, before enjoying riverside trails and some fetching picnic spots. Discover endless stick-throwing opportunities in the Peak District National Park, 6.5 miles away, which offers miles of moorland, woodland and heathland to explore with your canine companion.

Great location, very comfortable with plenty of space - the games room was an added bonus and we played lots of pool and ping pong in the evenings. The kitchen was well equipped too which was a big plus. We all had a super time.

A beautiful location closer to everything and yet far enough away to switch off and unwind. It was very clean and warm and had plenty of seating for the six of us. We couldn't have asked for more.

Wonderful house in a beautiful location. The stay was perfect. The house was very well appointed, and the local countryside was stunning. The local pub in Ellastone, just a 10-15 minute walk away was lovely. Perfect, would highly recommend.

We stayed in the Granary for our family winter break, perfect for two oldies, our grown up children and grandchildren and our doggies and had a lovely time even though the winter weather was not great, plenty of room for a family of 7 +3 dogs, lovely evenings spent in front of the large log burner, can only imagine how great it must be in summer wiRead moreth its beautiful outdoor spaces and outstanding views. Its a lovely complex in a lovely location. Cant understand why what seemed a like a stand alone well equipped gym complex was not available to all which would have been the icing on the cake for the fitness ones with us ,but the pool table made up for it Hide

A wonderful place to stay. Modern, well equipped and comfortable. There was plenty of space inside for us all to spread out. The weather was incredible so we got out for a walk (from the property) to enjoy the countryside. We also enjoyed soaking up the sun on the outside sitting area. The kitchen and dining table was the place to gather for foodRead more and drinks in the evening, before retiring to the sofas to relax (leaving the dishwasher to do the hard work). We didn't turn on any of the TVs but thankfully the wi-fi was spot on (mobile signal is somewhat patchy). An enjoyable weekend with friends. Hide

The Granary was a great place to stay, especially for large families and children. The cottage was very spacious, kitchen well equipped and the games room was very enjoyable. Lots of space outside, secured parking and excellent for dog walking. Close to Ashbourne and Leek for local towns.
