I can highly recommend Barn End Cottage. We have just returned from a fabulous week in the Peak District and would go back to this property in a heartbeat. Extremely clean and comfortable, right on the doorstep of the Monsal Trail and the Pennine Bridleway, very close to some lovely pubs and a short driving distance to Bakewell, Chatsworth House and most of the attractions of the area. Tony and Nikki were very helpful and informative about the area as well.
