Peak District Self Catering cottage, Five Wells Barn, Chelmorton, sleeps 2

Weekend away
This beautiful barn was exactly what we wanted- a cosy getaway which felt like the middle of nowhere. When we arrived we were greeted so warmly by Mark and shown around - lovely personal touches of cheese,milk,bread,tomatoes and coffee were left for us and we knew they were on hand if we needed anything. The barn itself is gorgeous- really well decorated and so comfortable. The underfloor heating made the stone flag floor very comfortable to walk on and the log burner was easy to use. There is a full length windownlooking out on the farmers field where we could have spent hours watching the sheep graze and seeing the changing skies over the fields. There was a folder full of printed out walks and suggestions of activities and we made use of the sheet for a 6 mile walk - a wonderful day was spent exploring the gorgeous countryside and it ended in the local pub at Chelmorton which was outstanding. The pub was only a 10 min walk away from the barn - over a field. We will definitely be going back again - we wanted a romantic getaway where we could go for long walks and spend quality time away from the world- we got exactly that.

Cosy and quaint - perfect stay.
From start to finish we loved our time at Five Wells. Mark and Caroline were so welcoming and friendly. The cottage is really well equipped and serves as an ideal bolt hole after a long day of walking - the log burner is a particular treat. We loved waking up each morning and enjoying breakfast with such a glorious view, not to mention the added bonus of watching the sheep out in the fields. We had a lovely stay and can?t wait to book again.

Perfect in every way
Five Wells barn ticked every box for our search for the perfect getaway. We have stayed in a few places over the years in the Peak district and they have all been very nice. However Five Wells barn was just something else and we really didn't want to leave! From the decor (which is everything I would have chosen for myself) to opening the blinds in the morning to the most incredible view over Derbyshire with sheep, horses, donkeys, goats and chickens all greeting you in the field outside. We didn't even put the TV on sometimes and just sat watching the animals; the two kittens in the field were highly entertaining as were the donkeys! A very warm welcome will be waiting for you from the owners, Mark and Caroline. We will definately be back next year.

Relaxing break,fantastic location.
We arrived at 5 Wells farm after a long drive up from Essex to be greeted with the most glorious scenes of rolling countryside in the Peak District, our stay in Mark and Carolines converted barn with stunning views on their working farm was a fabulously relaxing break, the decor and comfort was superb with some much appreciated milk and essentials provided. With many walks,bike hire, a visit to Chatsworth and some lovely local pubs our mini break was complete!...oh and we were lucky enough to have some lambs born whilst there. Highly recommend.

Wonderful
We were looking for a peaceful countryside cottage and Five Wells Barn was the perfect choice. The accommodation is very cosy and, despite being slightly off-the-beaten track, the TV, Wi-Fi and heating all worked marvellously, which isn't always the case in holiday cottages! A friendly horse, donkeys, chickens, sheep and (if you time it right) lambs are just seconds away from the front door. A great base to explore nearby Bakewell, Buxton, Chatsworth, Eyams and the amazing Monsal Trail. Highly recommended!
