Set in the rolling hills of the Peak District, High Ridge Barn is a thoughtfully restored retreat that strikes a perfect balance between rustic charm and modern comfort. With sweeping views of the surrounding countryside and a warm, welcoming ambience, it’s an ideal escape for families, friends, and your four legged companies (allowing up to four of them, in fact). Every detail here has been carefully considered, ensuring a relaxed and effortless stay from the moment you arrive.

Inside, the barn’s open-plan living space is designed for easy going get-togethers. The wood-burning stove crackles away in the corner, inviting guests to gather with a glass of wine or a board game. The kitchen is sleek yet homely, fully equipped for big breakfasts or indulgent dinners. For younger guests, there are cots, highchairs, and even baby monitors provided. And for the four-legged members of the family, High Ridge Barn goes the extra mile—dog beds, towels, spare leads, toys, and even a grooming stable complete with a bath, shower, and pet hairdryer, no expense spared for your pampered pooch!

Step outside, and you’ll find half an acre of enclosed gardens, perfect for sun-soaked afternoons or evening barbecues with the two provided Weber grills. The Scandinavian wood-burning sauna offers a touch of indulgence, particularly after a day exploring nearby trails. And if you fancy a pint, the Ship Inn in Wincle is just a short distance away.

From cosy winter nights around the fire to lazy summer evenings in the garden, High Ridge Barn is a versatile, comfortable base for exploring the beauty of the Peak District. It’s a place where every member of the family—dogs included—can settle in, switch off, and savour a little slice of countryside life.
