Bosing Barn is utterly wonderful. Incredibly spacious accommodation, luxurious furnishings, high beamed ceilings, oak and slate floors, exposed stone walls and stripped wood doors make this a truly iconic barn conversion. In a secret little valley just down from the centre of picturesque Kniveton, it sits in a peaceful rural location. Forming the upper part of the owner's farmhouse, alongside their livery stables, the accommodation is entirely self-contained and with its own entrance.
Set on a tranquil lane with countryside all around you and a babbling brook alongside the lane, you could be in the middle of nowhere. Have a wander around the adjoining stables and all the horses will give you inquisitive looks, the owner's dogs will give you a friendly welcome too. A stroll along the lane will get you to the super Red Lion pub, with its great beers and renowned food, attracting visitors from far and wide. A little further over the fields to the Ketch pub, also with a really good reputations for good food. Super walks are all around and all Derbyshire's holiday attractions are close at hand.
The local town of Ashbourne is a must with its lovely market square, country stores, antique shops, art galleries, and restaurants. Nearby historic Wirksworth is our favourite with lots of individual shops, a heritage trail and brilliant Ecclesbourne Valley Railway. Children will love Chatsworth's farmyard and adventure playground, the wild watersports of Carsington Water, cycling along the High Peak Trail, and a visit to Alton Towers which is just 20 minutes away.
