About this property

Stylish cottage for 2 guests, pet friendly, dining pub nearby, Chatsworth 10m.

Swallow Barn is a stylish little converted barn which combines stone walls and oak beams with contemporary style - the perfect mix of old and new. Situated in a quiet village right in the middle of the Peak District National Park the property enjoys a south facing private patio for sitting out.

With an open-plan layout, French windows open into the light and airy kitchen dining/lounge area, with a beamed ceiling which goes up to the rafters, wooden floor and comfortable seating. One corner is occupied by a well-equipped modern kitchen. An archway leads into the bedroom, with comfortable double bed and en-suite shower room. The accommodation is all on one level and offers everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Facilities include a fully equipped kitchen, TV, DVD player, Bluetooth radio/speakers, wifi, EV charging (small charge), secure cycle storage, maps and brochures. A well-behaved pet dog is welcome.

Set in the conservation village of Chelmorton, 6 miles from Buxton and 8 miles from Bakewell, there are walks from the door and beautiful countryside to explore in every direction, plus a traditional village pub The Church Inn (which welcomes dogs) serving good food just a 5 minute walk.

The historic houses of Chatsworth, Haddon Hall, Sudbury Hall, Kedleston Hall and Lyme Park are easy to reach as is the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site. In the summer lots of festivals and events take place - including the Eroica Britannia vintage cycle festival, Chatsworth Horse Trials in May, RHS Chatsworth Flower show in June, the Country Fair in September and well dressings from May to September. Bakewell Farmers Market (8miles) is the last Saturday of every month and is the second largest in the country. Buxton's beautiful little Opera House is just 6 miles away and offers year-round entertainment plus the acclaimed Buxton Festival in the summer. Manchester, Sheffield and Derby are less than an hour away.

There are endless opportunities for walking and cycling. Less than a mile from Swallow Barn are the Monsal Trail and the High Peak/Tissington Trail, old railway lines converted into wonderful traffic-free routes perfect for cycling and walking.

A recent 4 day visit for my little dog Freddie and me .

The converted barn is a beautiful little place to stay . It’s very well equipped and is set in a pretty ,quiet , friendly little village in the heart of the Peak District . Lots of birds for company and it’s enclosed for any little furry friend . An attractive patio area with tubs dotted about it’s just perfect . There’s so much to see and do - our days out have been completely different types of walking - all beautiful . It’s lush which means there’s a fair drop of rain about …. appropriate walking clothes a good idea . Freddie has come back a very happy boy - nothing better than different types of walking for him even though he’s knee high to a gnat .

Lovely cottage

This cottage was just as advertised. Very comfortable and very quiet. Gill, the host, was away during our stay but she sent details of how to get into the cottage and how to contact her if required. We were lucky with the weather so made ample use of the veranda in front of the cottage. The village is very small with no shop but there is a Tesco Direct a few miles away on the outskirts of Buxton. The Church Inn in the village is very nice, the food is excellent and the owners really friendly and helpful. Swallow Barn is well situated for visits to Chatsworth, Bakewell, Buxton and Matlock. We didn't have to travel more than about 12 miles to see the places on our list.

Spectacular !!

What a spectacular stay. Thank you Gill for the most wonderful visit to the Peak District. Accommodation was beyond perfect! Myself and my partner had our Labrador with us too, plenty of room for all luggage and an XL dog crate! Cleanliness was perfect! You wouldn’t even notice another dog had been in the property! There was everything we needed small details also such as a tray to put your walking boots on, the option to store things in a lovely shed! Plenty of wardrobe space, hangers, hairdryer and brilliant radiators that heated the space quick! Perfect! So many walks on the doorstep, perfect location to all the best spots to visit in the Peak District! A pub is a 2 minute walk up the road, AMAZING food and drinks, also very friendly and dogs are also welcome! So many places where we could take our dog! Cafes, restaurants, pubs, shops, walks, caves and more! Dog bowls also located outside lots of shops and food places! I can’t wait to come back one day. Beautiful accommodation! Thank you so much!

Great little place to stay for two.

Lovely little character barn conversion with all facilities for a week's stay with easy access to all the various beauty spots and walks. One little niggle is neighbour's security light which comes on and off many times a night. Fasten curtains tightly!

morning sun

Very nice little place, my only problem was being woken at 6am every morning with sunlight, could do with proper blackout curtain between bedroom and lounge, and bedroom skylight being blacked out, as its nice to have a lay in on holiday, photo of bathroom would also be handy on website.

We live 'over the garden wall' from Swallow Barn so if there is anything you need we are on hand, if there isn't then you won't really see us. Can recommend lots of places to visit, walks in the area, bike rides etc.
