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.

This was our second stay at Woodland Retreat within a year, and we have completely fallen in love with this place. From the moment you arrive, you’re surrounded by peace and tranquillity – it’s the perfect escape from busy everyday life. The accommodation is absolutely amazing. There is genuinely nothing you could possibly need that isn’t already thoughtfully provided. Every little detail has been considered, right down to the cosy slippers and the beautiful welcome hamper on arrival, with lovely bits waiting in the fridge for us. It feels luxurious yet homely at the same time. One of the most special touches for us was that we were left a handwritten note saying “welcome back.” It meant so much that they remembered us. Those personal touches really make all the difference and show how much care and thought goes into making each stay special. My husband and I have very busy lives, so when we get the chance to escape for a few days of peace and quiet, this is exactly where we want to be. It’s a beautiful setting, a beautiful place to stay, and the people behind it make it even more wonderful. We honestly couldn’t recommend Woodland Retreat more highly, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit.
