With a real ’wow’ factor, this award-winning, semi-detached rural barn conversion is in the 900 ft high hamlet of Uppertown in the village of Bonsall. It is a delightful and picturesque place for a relaxing getaway or a walking/cycling holiday in the Peak District National Park. Bailey’s Barn dates from the 1700s and has a welcoming and stylish feel, with a collection of art, an original mural and very high beamed ceilings. With eco-friendly instant heating, a cosy wood burner and well-furnished throughout, it offers an open plan living/kitchen/dining area, and a separate en-suite bedroom.

Ideal for walkers, couples, and dog owners, it is within an easy stroll of fields, footpaths and The Limestone Way. Set on top of the highest hill for many miles around, the views are outstanding and the walking and cycling extremely rewarding. There are hundreds of miles of trails which start straight from the barn, it is an ideal opportunity to park-up, put the car keys away and just relax! Bailey’s Barn is a great base from which to explore the beauty and majesty of the region’s peaks, dales and rivers. With its own quirky traditions such as Bonsall Carnival, International Hen Racing Championships, ancient buildings and History Trails, Bonsall itself is a delightful find with two pubs and a lovely tearoom all within half a mile or so. The owners live on-site, and are on hand to help with any queries. Shop, café and pub 500 yards, restaurant 2 miles.

cosy, well equipped and very dog friendly accommodation in a lovely area. Close to Matlock, Ashbourne and Bakewell.

An ideal cottage for two people and a dog . Eco and well equipped , lovely shower and bedroom. Above Matlock but ideally close to all the Peak District attractions and towns. Narrow roads up but this makes for wonderful views and a quiet village. The wood burner makes the whole cottage cosy. The local walk across the fields to the Limestone Way is great if you want a days walking without driving. Lots of dog related help provided by the owners , mats , towels , drying cupboard , treats etc. Pub within reasonable walking distance downhill ( uphill coming back ) . Narrow back road down to Sainsburys in Matlock if you choose but be prepared to give way and reverse when meeting oncoming vehicles. Parking space and lovely small garden with views ( weather permitting ). Would definitely go again. This cottage deserves its award status.

The holiday hosts were excellent & very welcoming. We appreciated the thoughtful welcome gifts. Lovely to have off road parking at the side of the cottage. The cottage also has a cute enclosed courtyard to the front & a second small enclosed lawned garden accessed from the parking space, with beautiful views across the valley, both areas having seating. Important to us is cleanliness & the cottage was spotless. The super king bed was very comfortable. As was the sofa. A pleasant 15 min walk downhill takes you into the centre of Bonsall with two pubs & a cafe. We certainly noticed the return uphill walk. We have no hesitation in recommending this bijou delightful cottage. Perfect for a stay in the beautiful Peak District with no shortage of walks & quaint towns/villages to explore.
