This charming, semi-detached barn is situated on the owner's non working farm, has panoramic views across the rolling countryside and is a mile and a half from Winster. It has been thoughtfully converted and manages to blend its traditional features with modern conveniences. The well-equipped and stylish kitchen is on open plan with the equally stylish and spacious dining and sitting areas, and there is a well-appointed bathroom and three large bedrooms to complete the accommodation. The family bedroom has its own en-suite shower room and one of the double rooms has lovely old cruck beams to add to the magical atmosphere of the room. This property is an ideal base for a family or group of friends to discover this fabulous region.

A conservation village, Winster is in the Peak District National Park and makes a charming base for a holiday. It has a 17th Century market house at its centre, and on the three main streets there are many three storey 18th Century houses. Winding through the village are little alleyways, known to the locals as ginnels, which are well worth exploring. Winster has many traditions, Morris Dancers, the Wakes festivities in June, and the annual Shrove Tuesday pancake race, making this sleepy little village far more vibrant and exciting than many similar sized locations. Walkers and cyclists are well placed for the Tissington Trail and The Limestone way and amenities in the village include a general store, post office and two pubs that serve local food and ales. More shops and facilities can be found in nearby Bakewell and Matlock.
