Greenacres Barn is set in the midst of 11 acres of organic grassland pasture, built in the mid 19th century as part of the Alton Towers estate. This brick-built farmhouse retains the original beams and character yet offers extremely light and spacious contemporary living. If you like your peace and tranquillity but don’t want to be miles from anywhere, then this is the cottage for you. There’s a farm at the top of the track with an organic dairy herd, and it’s these ladies who will more than likely be your neighbours during your stay as they graze in the lush green pastures right outside your door. The Barn is perfect for families or couples looking for a countryside getaway, with the Peak District on your doorstep.
Greenacres Barn can sleep a maximum of four guests and could be your comfortable family home for the week. The barn has an entrance hall to dry off the dog after those long country walks and a dog bed. Coming into the barn there’s a snug with comfortable seating for four, with Freeview TV and a cosy wood burner. There is a fully fitted kitchen area, comfortable dining area and snug area to curl up with a good book. Upstairs is a double bedroom with a kingsize double bed, and Velux windows giving spectacular views over the Churnet Valley and the Weaver Hills to the North. While downstairs is another double bedroom. Outside is a garden, patio area and a picnic table.
The fields surrounding are home to a wide variety of birds, other wildlife and many wild flowers. The gardens are planted with fruit trees including plum, apple, damson and quince, and the owners also grow their own herbs, fruit and vegetables. If you are a lover of stargazing, you will really enjoy the dark skies, there are no streetlights around and on dark nights the skies are full of stars.
The pretty, traditional village of Denstone is close to many fantastic attractions, including the thrilling Alton Towers theme park which is just a few minutes’ drive away. The village has an award-winning farm shop, café and a local inn. Alton is a 6-minute drive away and offers numerous eateries, pubs and a post office. Situated on the Churnet Valley Trail and close to the High Peak and Tissington Trails, there are excellent walking and cycling routes available. Located on the edge of the Peak District, there is plenty to do in the area, the market towns of Ashbourne and Leek are easily accessible, as is the town of Uttoxeter. The historic houses of Haddon Hall and Chatsworth House are within easy reach, and there are numerous walking, cycling and climbing opportunities.
