This beautifully converted barn is the perfect countryside retreat for guests looking to relax, recharge and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Set within the private gated grounds of Hopton House, the property combines stunning lake views, stylish interiors and a tranquil setting that guests often describe as one of the most relaxing places they have stayed. On the ground floor, the spacious kitchen and dining area provides a welcoming social space for cooking, dining and spending time together, with two electric ovens, an ice maker and a Smart TV. Large glass doors and windows make the most of the wonderful views across Carsington Water, creating a bright and airy space to relax and spend time together.

For added flexibility, both bedrooms can be arranged as either super-king-size or twin rooms on request, making the property equally suited to couples, friends and families. Additional sleeping can be provided via two day beds in the lounge and a further day bed in the upstairs bedroom, all available by arrangement at an additional charge.
Outside, guests can soak away the stresses of daily life in the private hot tub whilst taking in uninterrupted panoramic views across Carsington Water and the rolling Derbyshire countryside. Surrounded by peaceful grounds and quiet country lanes, the setting offers a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion, with little to disturb the tranquillity beyond birdsong and the ever-changing views.
