This ancient stone barn, enjoys a lovely position in the heart of a village in the spectacular landscape of the Peak District. The village is famous as a ‘plague village,’ one of the areas that went into voluntary quarantine during the plague of 1655. Many of the old village buildings retain their original features giving the village an enchanting, historical feel. The nearby Eyam Moor offers wonderful walks and far-reaching views across the Derwent Valley. After guests have worked up an appetite out on the moors, they can head back to the local village pub, the Miners Arms for a spot of recuperation. For those seeking culture, a short drive takes guests to the impressive country houses of Chatsworth and Haddon hall.
