Description
Churn Barn is a lovely spacious barn conversion ideally suited to extended family, families holidaying together and groups of walkers keen to enjoy the stunning High Peak. The accommodation includes a magnificent living room and feature staircase, superb kitchen, four good-sized bedrooms and smart bathrooms. There is a small games room for children and a large secure patio and garden.
Set on the hillside above Chinley village, the barn backs onto Cracken Edge and has wonderful views out across the valley. A short half mile stroll will take you down into the village where there is a super inn (The Lamb Inn) and proper local shops, a convenience store, chemist and Post Office. Walks and cycle routes radiate from the cottage, Chapel en le Frith Golf Club is just two miles away and there are numerous places to visit in the surrounding hills. How about Peveril Castle, Whaley Bridge canal basin, the beautiful Goyt Valley, lovely Lyme Hall and New Mills' incredible Millennium Walkway?
With wider horizons, all of Derbyshire's attractions are within easy reach but there are numerous contrasts in just this part of the National Park. Castleton's Blue John caverns, Buxton's magnificent Opera House, the Dambuster Dams and the wild moorlands of Kinder Scout to name but a few. Spot the white hares on Kinder if you are really lucky!

Location
CHINLEY
Chinley is a large village surrounded by dramatic Dark Peak countryside views taking in acres of moorland. Originally part of the Royal Forest of the Peak, Chinley came into its own when the railway was introduced in 1867. Chinley still has easy rail access to both Sheffield and Manchester, ideal for a day out.
Closer to home is the town of Castleton, home to the famous Derbyshire Blue John stone, where you can visit the caverns where it has been mined for generations and perhaps take home a piece of jewellery as a gift or souvenir.
Also nearby is Kinder Scout, the highest point of the Peak District at 636m above sea level. It is accessible from the pretty villages of Hayfield and Edale but the summit is for serious hikers only and be aware of the local weather forecast before setting out. Kinder Scout was the setting of the 1932 Mass Trespass which paved the way for the establishment of National Parks, long-distance footpaths and walkers’ rights to roam on common land.
As you would expect from a large village, Chinley has a good range of shops (including Post Office, chemist and convenience store) and eateries and is the ideal place to base yourself for Peak District walks and outdoor activities.
Local Pubs: The Lamb Inn, Chinley; The Old Hall Inn, Whitehough.
