The conservation village of Winster is situated within the White Peak area of the Peak District National Park and is an extremely pretty place, with a charming 17th century market house at its centre, and other imposing 17th and 18th century houses, many three storeys high. The three main streets - Main Street, East Bank and West Bank are interconnected by alleyways known as ‘ginnels’, which are well worth exploring. The village of Winster is famous for its Morris dancers, the annual Shrove Tuesday pancake race, Wakes festivities in June, and the Secret Gardens of Winster event in July. Within the village there is a well-stocked, community-owned general store incorporating a Post Office. There are two pubs, both serving food and traditional beer. Bakewell, Matlock, Chatsworth House, and the Peak Rail Steam Railway are all nearby and, for keen walkers and cyclists, The Limestone Way runs along the edge of the village. The Tissington and High Peaks walking and cycling trails, with bike hire available, both lie less than 5 miles from the village, a wonderful base for exploring the Peak District.

There were fresh flowers in every room and the welcome pack was generous. Tor Barn itself is perfect. It has stunning views across the valley and the garden is beautiful. The renovations have been carried out tastefully and to the highest standard. We were particularly impressed with the responsive heating and walk-in shower. We will definitely book Tor Barn again.

Little additional touches by the owners, left me without hesitation to highly recommend the cottage.

We loved it. Such a beautiful design and so thoughtfully renovated. You have thought of everything. The barn was so clean and we really appreciated the treats that you left for us! It was extremely comfortable and cosy on a really rainy day. Thanks for all the great walk and pub suggestions and the books on local history. We had a terrific holiday!
