  • A beautiful former hayloft in the tranquil Derbyshire hamlet of Snitterton

  • Ideal for couples exploring the south-eastern corner of the Peak District

Property code: OC-DCHAF

The Hayloft has been carefully created out of a mellow stone hay loft above a barn in the midst of the sleepy little hamlet of Snitterton. Its dramatic vaulted ceilings, attractive decoration, comfortable furniture and fittings, quality bed linen and towels, together with its wonderful setting in a secret little valley make it a really great holiday retreat.

Hidden away in beautiful Wensley Dale, locations don't come much better than this. There are superb views across the valley on all the lovely walks from the cottage. Matlock, with all its county town facilities is just five minutes’ drive over the hill.

Don't forget to visit nearby Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and the Peak Steam Railway. Other treats include Calver Edge's breathtaking views, Monsal Dale's wonderful waterfalls and the 'little Switzerland' of Matlock Bath.  Make sure you get back in time for a drink on the little patio.

This first-floor property, above a barn, is accessed via an external stone staircase, with handrails.

A fabulous place to stay! The 'hayloft' is so cosy comfortable and quiet. A very peaceful location with easy walks within a stone's throw. Beautiful countryside on all sides. Great location with lots of parking. Roomy and yet home from home inside. Owners were extremely helpful. We will definitely come back!

A nice conversion to a holiday accommodation in a good location with easy access to local attractions, but requires improvements. Sofa uncomfortable and bed mattress thin and you can feel the slats underneath. No shower screen or high level holder for shower head, only low level.
