About this property

Situated between the villages of Winster and Youlgreave in the quaint hamlet of Gratton Dale, and nestled amongst the rural countryside of the Peak District on the grounds of Dale End Farm, rests this wonderful single-storey Cowshed conversion. With five bedrooms sleeping 10 guests, this pet-friendly accommodation in the Peak District is a superb base for a large group or family getaway! You'll find off-road parking to unload your luggage and get your holiday started. The Cowshed conversion is a combination of two cottages, both with thoughtfully laid out, open-plan living spaces, equipped with a kitchen, dining area and sitting area. Prepare your best home-cooked dinners with the excellent facilities, including an electric oven and hob, microwave and fridge, ready to be served at the dining table while you plan your Peak District adventures! Sink into the sofas and snuggle up with your loved ones in front of the TV, but if the evening's still warm, why not step out into your own private garden? There's outdoor seating to kick back with a glass of wine and enjoy the gorgeous views of rolling hills and the resident animals. After muddy walks through the surrounding countryside, throw your gear into the handy washing machines, before freshening up in the contemporary shower room or bathroom, depending on your preference. Each bedroom has been beautifully presented with storage space and relaxation in mind; choose between a double or zip/link twin with a TV, or a double with en-suite shower room, another double with TV, and a twin with TV. Resting on the grounds of the family-run, 17th-century Dale End Farmhouse, there are many attractions within easy reach of The Old Cowsheds; nearby you'll find the National Trust's Winster Market House and Nine Stones Close Stone Circle. If you fancy a break from the kitchen, dine out at the delightful Bulls Head Youlgeave or Manners Bakewell, The Miners in Carsington or pick up essentials at the Winster Village Shop. Further afield lies the impressive stately home of Chatsworth House with its expansive gardens offering a labyrinth, farm park, and temple. Pick up the famed pudding in Bakewell and stroll along the River Wye to Bakewell Bridge, or if you're looking for more adventure, the fascinating caverns of Speedwell and Blue John in Castleton are sure to please historians and thrill seekers. Be sure to pack your walking boots to explore The Dale, which offers stunning scenery along its trail, simply breath-taking! For a home away from home in the heart of the Peaks, choose The Old Cowsheds.

Settled amongst the rolling countryside of the Peak District National Park rests the pleasant conservation village of Winster. Beautifully-adorned with a 17th-century market house at its heart, towering buildings and winding alleyways, Winster offers an idyllic rural escape. A shop and two pubs offer all of the essential amenities to visitors, whilst a wider variety of choice can be found in nearby Bakewell or Matlock.

    Zoe and Steve were very friendly and helpful. The property is well-equipped and located close to lots of interesting places eg Chatsworth, Heights of Abraham, Thornbridge Hall. It's also a great place to access footpaths and quiet roads for walking.
