About this property

Set within a beautifully converted Dutch Barn, with elevated views over gorgeous countryside, the property is nestled in the hamlet of Wensley, just inside the Peak District National Park. Perfect for exploring Bakewell (7miles), famous for its pudding, and visiting the stately home of Haddon Hall (5miles) en route. Matlock Bath (5miles) and Matlock (3.5miles) sit in the other direction, with lots of shops, cafes and pubs offering great food choices. Matlock Bath offers cable cars, walks along the riverside and the Cromford Canal (9.5miles), or elevated walks at High Torr. Traverse the iconic Monsal Trail (7.5miles) on two wheels or on foot, experiencing the beauty of the Derbyshire Dales from a different perspective. With tunnels, viaducts, and stunning scenery along the way, it's an unforgettable adventure for cycling enthusiasts and walkers. Embark on a cultural journey at Chatsworth House (6.8miles), one of England's most magnificent stately homes. Explore its opulent interiors, vast gardens, and extensive art collections for a truly immersive experience.

The property is set in farmland on the edge of the hamlet, with stunning countryside views made all the more magnificent by the elevated position on the first floor of this Dutch Barn, accessed via an external metal staircase. The open plan accommodation comprises:

Living Room: with two sofas facing the incredible views through the high arched picture windows, a selection of books and Freeview TV for your entertainment; a dining table and four chairs.

Kitchen Area: with electric oven, gas hob, fridge, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine.

Bedroom Area: the double bed is nestled beyond the kitchen space, separated by a low wall.

Dressing Room: off the sleeping space, with plenty of clothes storage and space to store suitcases.

Shower Room: with walk-in dual-function shower enclosure, WC and basin.
