  • "Well what can I say, Lilimae Barn was simply perfect for our visit to the peaks."

    On arrival we found a welcome tray of goodies plus milk, bread and butter, a very nice touch. The kitchen was well equipped and the lounge area provided games, books and guides to help you explore the area. Lilimae Barn is clean and beautifully furnished. The beds are extremely comfortable and there is plenty of storage space if you plan to stay for a while. The surrounding area is stunning with a great little pub just a short walk up the road. We are already working out when we can visit again. Many thanks for everything Rose.

  • "Delightful, cosy property that has been cleverly renovated."

    Taking a 10 month old away isn’t always easy, but the property owners provided us with cot, highchair and stair gate, making life so much easier.. Definitely a gem of a find!

    Hi Lauren - thank you so much for taking the time to write a review, I really appreciate it. I’m so pleased you had a super stay and we will hopefully see you again in the future. Property Owner

  • "Everything was perfect about our stay at Liliemae Barn."

    Property has been beautifully modernised and is of a very high standard. We received communication from the host before and during our stay just to make sure we had everything we needed and all was okay, which it was, stairgates and a travel cot/ cot fitted sheet were also provided for our young grandson. The location of the barn is ideal to reach all the Peaks District has to offer, so close to Carsington Waters, Dovedale, Bakewell, Buxton and Ashbourne. Would definitely recommend.

    Hi Carol, I am so pleased you had a lovely break and the barn met all your requirements. Thanks so much for your positive feedback - it really is very much appreciated indeed. I hope to see you again in the future. Property Owner

    Rose the host text during our stay to ensure everything was going OK and to make sure that there was nothing we needed which we thought was very considerate. Would highly recommend.

The property

Hulland Ward 2.7 miles.

Lilimae Barn is a simply stunning, detached barn conversion in the heart of the village of Hognaston, near Ashbourne and Wirksworth.

It’s a perfect base for exploring the Derbyshire Dales, Peak District and the beautiful villages/towns throughout the local area.

Sleeping three (+ one cot), this property is ideal for a couple, a small family, or friends looking for a peaceful base in rural Derbyshire.

Be welcomed by the pretty exterior of this stone-built character property which was a former barn.

Parking is on a private drive outside the property, with an additional allocated car parking space in the village hall car park if required.

The barn has a reverse layout with bedrooms and the bathroom on the ground floor, offering well-presented spaces for you to catch your rest, as well as plenty of fitted storage for all of your belongings; choose between a king-size bedroom and a queen-size bedroom, suitable for one guest.

Both rooms are serviced by a stylish fully tiled ground-floor bathroom with the options of a soak in the tub or a refreshing walk-in shower with a rain shower head.

The whole of the ground floor has underfloor heating.

The open-plan living space can be found on the first floor, a beautiful room filled with skylights and natural light, offering a contemporary space for guests to relax in, with a sitting area sporting tasteful furniture and a 50” Smart TV.

The kitchen houses ample amenities to cater to your culinary needs, as well as a dining island ideal for hearty meals.

A Nespresso coffee machine and wine fridge are also included.

Hognaston is a delightful Derbyshire village of stone properties on the outskirts of the Peak District National Park, with a local pub, The Red Lion Inn, with lots more pubs/restaurants nearby.

Convenience stores can be found at the Hulland Ward (including farm shop and fuel), Ashbourne (Sainsburys, Coop, M&S Simply Food and Aldi) or Wirksworth (large Coop with Fuel).

There are many restaurants and pubs nearby to suit all budgets and culinary preferences.

The Miners Arms at Carsington is a popular traditional pub, whilst Callow Hall offers a really special experience in their contemporary glass dining room, perfect for a treat or special celebration.

Public EV Charging facilities can be found in Ashbourne and Wirksworth.

From the property, head over to Carsington Water, which is a short drive or a lovely walk, where there are water sports facilities, including paddle boarding, sailing and fishing, as well as a defined 8-mile gravel path around the entire reservoir for walking, cycling and running.

The main visitors centre has excellent facilities for eating and shopping, as well as a large children’s play park.

More locations to visit include the pretty village of Bakewell, housing many cafés and independent stores, as well as Buxton, Ashbourne, Wirksworth, Matlock, Cromford, and Chatsworth House.

About the location

HULLAND WARD

Carsington Water 2.5 mile; Ashbourne 5 miles.

The village is closest to Hulland Ward, with nearby Ashbourne having extensive facilities which is around 5 miles away. Carsington Water is less than 1 mile away, and the beautiful town of Wirksworth is also around 5 miles away. Hognaston is a quaint traditional village of stone/brick properties nestled in the rolling Derbyshire Dales which are characterised by lowland green pasture fields bounded by hedges and trees/woodland. Hognaston is just 4 miles from the edge of the more rugged Peak District National Park which spans over 500 square miles of upland terrain, perfect for more challenging walking, cycling and running. Within the village, just a short walk away is a lovely children’s play park which has swings, a small climbing frame with slide and a small fenced multi-use games area for football and basketball/netball, along with picnic benches. Nearby Ashbourne is the perfect example of an English market town, boasting an eccentric street plan, narrow, cobbled alleys, old market stalls and many fine coaching inns. The town offers a good selection of restaurants, whilst being regarded as something of a haven for antique hunters. The nationally acclaimed theme park, Alton Towers, can be accessed by a scenic car journey.
