About this property
A charming and beautifully converted traditional farm building within a secluded woodland area on the Staffordshire/Derbyshire border, Woodland Retreat is the ideal romantic getaway. Surrounded by woodland and several walking routes and attractions, this is the ideal place to explore and unwind.
Woodland Retreat is situated down a short private track that winds through the surrounding fields where guests have total privacy, making it perfect for those who just want to get away from it all. The only sounds are of birdsong and the rustle of trees. A truly relaxing Rural Retreat. Boasting uninterrupted views of the stunning countryside, this former cattle shed has been transformed into a truly sumptuous and romantic bolthole.
Set over one floor, Woodland Retreat has a stylish open-plan living space where exposed beams in the vaulted ceilings blend seamlessly with the modern furnishings to create a special space for you to relax. The beautifully, elegant bathroom with a roll-top bath and separate walk-in shower leads through to the light and spacious bedroom which has been tastefully furnished to create a calm and tranquil sleeping space.
A full wall of bi-folding doors bring the outdoors in, and lead out to the stunning terrace overlooking the woodland. Complete with outdoor dining table and chairs, wooden sun loungers, barbecue and a fire pit, the terrace provides an extra living space at any time of year.
The estate offers many walks from the doorstep and is ideally located to explore the beautiful Staffordshire countryside or the nearby Peak District.

Well woodland retreat was absolutely the best cottage we have stayed in. That good we booked again as so as we got home. The place was immaculate everything you could wish for and more. Our Scotty loved the garden and we even had snow which was a bonus. We would definitely recommend this cottage. And thank you for letting us share this beautiful place. Phil Grace. And our Scottish terrier Bobby

Beautiful location in amazing countryside. Quality property and the little extras and welcome pack were better than most cottages we’ve stayed in, local eggs, bread, cheesey bread sticks, honey & jam, coffee - very much noticed and appreciated. The outdoor space is brilliant with plenty of wood for the fire pit and charcoal for the bar b, would be amazing in the spring and summer with the bifolds open. The only point would be the security for a dog as ours ran over the cattle grid so it’s not closed in and needs a gate, particularly if there are sheep in the adjoining field. Still a brilliant stay and highly recommend.

Wow, wow, wow. Absolutely perfect. The owners have thought of everything. It’s the little touches that make it extra special. Very peaceful and secluded. The local village is a 5 min drive away with an assortment of pubs and cafes. So wonderful, we’ve booked to go back.
