Dog friendly . The Hay Barn is a detached barn on the edge of Alstonefield village . It is surrounded by fields and often the only noise is birds singing and sheep bleating . In the evening the owls can be heard and if you are lucky spotted gliding over the fields . At night we have amazing dark sky's. Up to two medium size dogs are very welcome . We have a fenced and gated garden . The accomodation is cosy and comfortable and comprises 2 bedrooms ,a double and a twin (the single beds can be converted to a queen size bed) a bathroom , separate toilet, kitchen and lounge . There is a log burner in the lounge for those colder evenings .The kitchen has recently been updated so boasts a new cooker , induction hob, fridge freezer and dishwasher. The views from the lounge and kitchen are fabulous. The washer is in a separate room underneath the main accomodation where there is also an extra freezer and room to leave bikes safely. There are many ,many wonderful walks from the property taking in Mill Dale, Dovedale , Wolfscote Dale, Thors cave and the Manifold trail to name just a few local beauty spots . Popular villages within a short drive include Hartington which has local food shops, a cheese shop, gift shops, tearooms and pubs , Ilam with its National trust Hall and the cottages reminiscent of the Swiss Alps, and Tideswell with its beautiful church known as the cathedral of the peaks. The towns of Ashbourne , Buxton , Bakewell and Leek are all worth a visit and usually there is some festival or market happening in one or other of them . The well dressings happen throughout the summer in various local villages , Tissington being the closest . Stately homes nearby include Haddon Hall, Chatsworth, Sudbury and Kedleston. There are 3 local cycle trails the tissington , high peak and Manifold trails , all have cycle hire . For children there is the Peak Wildlife park and matlock farm park within 30 minute drive. For thrill seekers Alton Towers is 30 minutes drive away . There is also splash landings at the Alton Towers hotels which is open to the public. There is a go ape aerial adventure in buxton.

It's comfortable and has everything you need for a lovely stay. The location is perfect – with plenty of scope for walking and pop visits. Only reason for the 4-star cleaning rating is an unclean grill with bacon smell on arrival (I'm not a fan of meat) – but definitely not a biggie and we'd highly recommend the barn. ##### Hayley W.

Sitiuated in the Staffordshire Peak district and looking out across fields of ewes and their lambs, it was peaceful, well appointed, comfortable and perfectly situated for exploromg this beautiful part of England. The property was clean, well designed, fully equipped and communications with the hosts Jon and Claire were excellent. We did some cycling on the nearby Tissington Trail and the Manifold Way and explored this area which we had no idea was so beautful - from deep river valleys to uplands with extensive and empty farmland divided by stone walls. Highly recommended and I reckon if we get the chance, we would come and stay again. ##### Danny M.

Had everything we needed. Thick walls so kept cool in the heat (and would be warm in cold too). Garden had lovely views and was enclosed so safe for our corgipoo, but was not accessed directly from the house which was a bit of a pain. ##### Katie W. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon M. 25 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Cosy Barn was the perfect place to stay for a get-away from it all weekend.The house was welcoming, well-equipped and spotlessly clean. Quiet location with lots of lovely walks on the doorstep, and the village pub is about half a mile away. Claire responded quickly to the booking request and gave clear instructions for access to the house. Thank you Claire for making your cottage so welcoming and excellent communication. ##### Sharon M.

Very well equipped. Good comms from our host who provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Separate toilet v helpful for a family with teenage girl IYKYK.

Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katie 15 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Beautiful little cottage, the photos really don’t do it justice. The peace & quiet and views over the dale from the garden in the evening- superb. It’s just one mile to Milldale where you can access Dovedale nature reserve. 4 miles to Hartington with pubs/restaurants/grocery corner shop. Kitchen looked brand new. Good WiFi in the lounge. Dog friendly, great base for walking, so many great public footpaths and trails all around ##### Katie Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diana R. 20 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Weekend stay Lovely. ##### Diana R.
