Your home away from home

Set in a quiet location in the Peak District National Park, Alder Barn is the perfect retreat for families and friends looking to relax in style.

With spacious living areas, beautifully designed bedrooms and breathtaking countryside on your doorstep, this is a peaceful hideaway you’ll never want to leave.

Perched among the rolling hills of the Hamps Valley, nestled between hedgerows and streams teaming with wildlife, Alder Barn is a luxurious retreat where design, comfort and nature meet.

Restored this year, sleeping six, this beautiful stone barn is made for slow mornings, long walks, and fireside evenings.

Step inside and you’ll find a space that feels both elegant and effortless with boutique touches in every corner.

Two stunning bedrooms feature statement sleigh beds, dressed in crisp linens, while a charming twin room makes the perfect nook for children or extra guests.

The lounge is warm and inviting, centred around an inglenook wood-burning stove and styled with natural textures and soft, layered lighting.

Whether you’re sharing a home-cooked meal in the kitchen or stargazing from the garden under inky skies, this is a place that invites you to pause and breathe.

To help you settle into your stay, a thoughtfully prepared welcome hamper containing local and homemade treats, tiny white (and sometimes blue!) eggs from the neighbouring farms’ Bantam flock, luxury bath products from Indulgent Blooms and a chilled bottle!

When it's time to retire for the evening, choose from three beautifully presented bedrooms.The first has a super-king-size sleigh bed, an elegant en-suite featuring a walk-in rainfall shower, basin, heated towel rail and WC, all set upon charming patterned floor tiles.

The second super-king-size bedroom offers a sleigh bed, antique furniture and a glazed door leading out to the charming original stone steps and fabulous views.The charming twin room makes the perfect nook for children or extra guests.

Serving these rooms is a stylish bathroom with a bath, a rainfall shower, basin, WC and plenty of built-in storage.

Additionally, downstairs there is a convenient cloakroom with a basin and WC leading off the large entrance hall.

Outside, you will find an enclosed garden with a lawn and patio area, complete with furniture and BBQ for alfresco dining.

To add a touch of indulgence to your visit, there is an option to upgrade the welcome basket by contacting the owner directly.

A home cooked meal delivery service can also be pre-arranged.

For those in need of pampering, Indulgent Blooms will hand deliver any orders made during your stay or, if arranged in advance, will lovingly prepare a gift basket tailored especially to your needs and will be delivered in advance of your arrival.

Retreat to the warmth and countryside luxury of Alder Barn, a place to slow down and reconnect — with nature, loved ones, and yourself.
