It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Handy for Tissington Hall and the tea rooms which are just around the corner, and Tissington Trail is just a few minutes walk. Dovedale is only a short drive away. Would we stay here again? Definitely!

Barn itself had everything we needed for a self catering break and was a charming place to stay, hopefully weâll be back again soon

Taps dripping and Front Door difficult to close. Location is ideal from our perspective and we would stay again next time we are in the area.
