About this property
A stunning cottage in a secret little valley on the edge of picturesque Kniveton village.
Located in Kniveton, a lovely little village with a beautiful church, this is a very attractive and spacious cottage which is perfect for friends or families to enjoy while exploring the many delights of Derbyshire and the Peak District National Park. Created out of a mellow stone barn, Bosing Barn has been converted with lots of modern features while still managing to retain its original charms. Cosy up in the luxurious lounge, take your favourite tipple out onto the patio or perhaps just wander along the country lane in this secret little valley.
A short walk into the village will take you to the beautiful church and perhaps to the locally renowned pub that's great for a meal or just a real ale pint. You might also fancy jumping in the car for the five minute drive into Victorian Ashbourne with its colourful market square, designer clothes shops, many antique shops and several pubs and restaurants.
Exploring further afield, make sure that you explore historic Wirksworth with its heritage trail and heritage railway. Carsinton Water is another must to visit to try the water sports, cycle hire fishing and bird watching. If you venture further into the Peak District, Bakewell, Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and all the picturesque villages and beautiful Dales with sparkling rivers will beckon. The view from Calver Edge over wave after wave of Peak District hills will blow your mind!

Mrs Herring
A lovely presented barn. Lots of character and the layout was ideal for two couples with private fantastic shower rooms. The kitchen was one of the best we'd stayed in with lots of equipment. The lounge area was well laid out with a homely feel. The beds were comfortable and the bedding of good quality. I liked that dogs were not allowed in the bedrooms. We took our dog which slept in the lounge in a pen we had taken. The owners dogs were very friendly and loved to visit. We had a lovely meal in the village pub which was in walking distance. Would recommend this accommodation.

Absolutely lovely property in a perfect spot. Lovely and quiet with plenty of walks on the doorstep. I was a little worried that my dog would find the number of dogs that the owner had a challenge but they couldn't have been nicer. The owner was also very respectful and made sure that only a few dogs were out at any time. All in all, loved it. Great location, great property, hope to return soon
