The Pig Barn

The Pig Barn was converted in 2016, and is the perfect property for families and groups of friends looking for a peaceful rural escape. This old barn, which once housed pigs along with their keepers (who slept in the same building on the top floor) has been transformed into a welcoming and delightful holiday home with hottub that enjoys the most spectacular views across the Derbyshire countryside.



The light and contemporary decor gives the property a luxury and charming feel, making the property a perfect base for your holiday with your loved ones. With a large living space and kitchen-diner, you can gather to unwind into the evening, catching up with your favourite shows or enjoying some quality family time together. Children's cutlery is available inside the property.



This two-bedroom property has king-sized beds and ensuite bathrooms, with both bedrooms offering a zip and link feature allowing the beds to be joined or separated. So no matter your group type, there will be something to suit your needs.



Delight in the high-quality bath where you can take a warm soak at the end of a tiring day and walk out onto the heated floor to give those aching feet a treat. Located on the edge of the farm, you can enjoy a spot of alfresco dining whilst enjoying those stunning views from the outdoor hot tub.



Please let us know your preferred bed setup at least two weeks before your arrival. If we do not receive this information in time, we cannot guarantee your requested arrangement. For bookings and more information please contact Finest Retreats.
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and 2.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an electric kettle.

Pleasant Stay

Property is in a good location, lots of walk’s nearby. The kitchen layout is a bit strange with the fridge as far away from the worktops as possible. The lounge is a great size but comes across as a little impersonal. The Wi-Fi is very hit and miss. Overall a nice place to stay but could do with a few updates
