This beautifully restored property is perfect for a small family or group looking to explore the local countryside.

Just outside Ashbourne and only a 20 minute drive from the Peak District, this cottage is an idyllic retreat to explore the Peaks and Dales of Derbyshire.

The space

The Old Forge is a modern barn conversion with everything you need for your retreat to the country. The barn has been lovingly refurbished to provide a quaint retreat for you to get away from it all. The spacious open plan living area leads to a well-equipped kitchen with dishwasher and free-standing fridge freezer. The ground floor has a cosy twin room with an en-suite shower room which is perfect for small children. Upstairs the beamed master bedroom is spacious with plenty of room to fit the king-sized double bed and has a free-standing bath. Outside there's space to sit out and admire the views of the local countryside or for some al fresco dining.

We are delighted to offer “The Spinney”, the woodland picnic area at the top of our field, for you to enjoy during your stay. Perfect too for lazy breakfasts, morning coffee and sundowners whilst enjoying the sunshine through the trees.

Guest access

The Old Forge is accessed via a private driveway and guests will be greeted by the owners upon arrival. If you are arriving late keys can be left in the lockbox for you to access the property.

Sustainability

The Old Forge is part of a beautifully converted set of farmhouses in the Derbyshire countryside. The owners provide you with fresh eggs and milk from their local farm and there are plenty of sheep in the nearby fields. The farm is partially powered by solar panels reducing the carbon footprint of the property.

We plant a tree for every booking we make to help offset some of the carbon emissions generated by our stays.
