We stayed here whilst we went to Chatsworth for the Christmas decorations. The Barn is just delightful. Warm, cosy, fully fitted out with everything you would need. A lovely wood burner, underfloor heating, fabulous shower room. Comfy bed with immaculate bedding. It's ideally located, but the village is so peaceful. So pretty. A great pub 100 yds away. Judith is the perfect hostess. We would return. Thank you.
