From the owner

SWAINSLEY FARM is a wonderful location for family gatherings, holidays, birthdays and group events inside the Peak District National Park. Three adjacent cottages offer 6 bedrooms sleeping up to 12 people with 2 additional Z-beds (suitable for children) and 3 cots. There is space to socialise but also flexibility for those choosing to be independent: the Coach House (3 bedrooms, with a large, spacious lounge), the Haybarn (2 bedrooms, can dine up to 12), the Old Byre (1 bedroom, provides a peaceful bolt-hole).

SWAINSLEY FARM is located on high ground overlooking the beautiful River Manifold which flows through spectacular crags and wooded valleys before joining Dovedale a few miles down stream. Great walking straight from the door!

The COACH HOUSE, a former carriage & stable block, has 3 bedrooms and sleeps 6/7 guests. It has a spectacular, and very spacious, beamed lounge with a wood-burning stove (Biomass). From the lounge, which has fantastic views, a flight of open-tread stairs leads to a romantic galleried, double bedroom. All other rooms are on the ground floor making this cottage suitable for visitors with limited mobility. The master bedroom has a king-size double bed with an en-suite shower room while a separate, family bathroom has a shower over the bath, hand basin and toilet. A third bedroom has twin beds in a bunks arrangement and there is a folding Z-bed for an extra guest. A spectacular modern kitchen with granite worktops, American style fridge/freezer and under floor heating.Tourist Board GOLD Award.

The HAYBARN, part of a former barn and corn store, has 2 bedrooms and sleeps 4/5 guests. It has a very spacious, modern kitchen & dining room with under-floor heating, granite worktops and is equipped to an exceptionally high standard. The lounge is especially cosy with wood-burning stove (Biomass) and wonderful views. An open-tread flight of stairs leads to a landing overlooking a courtyard. The landing provides access to a modern, deluxe, family bathroom with a shower over the bath, toilet and hand-basin. The master bedroom has a spectacular vaulted ceiling and king-size double bed. A separate, second bedroom has twin beds (which can be made into a king-size double by arrangement). This cottage will easily accommodate two couples but the layout (second bedroom leading off the master bedroom) means that it’s particularly suitable for families, especially those with small children. The second bedroom contains a Z-bed for an extra person.

Tourist Board 5 STAR GOLD Award.

The OLD BYRE, a cozy and romantic cottage, has 1 bedroom and sleeps 2 guests. It has an open-plan lounge, dining area and modern, deluxe kitchen with granite worktops and integrated appliances. Recently installed wood-burning stove (Biomass). An open-tread flight of stairs leads to a galleried landing which provides access to a double bedroom with truly stunning views! The deluxe bathroom has a shower over the bath, toilet and hand basin.

Tourist Board 5 STAR GOLD Award.

Each cottage has dishwasher, washer/drying machine, hob, oven, fridge, freezer, Nespresso coffee machine, microwave, LCD TV, DVD, Bluetooth speaker and WiFi. Outside, each cottage has its own garden furniture, picnic table, barbecue etc. with access to a grassy paddock. We have some complimentary cycles for our guests to use.

Ample safe parking (adjacent to the cottages) and newly installed EV CHARGER.

Interaction with guest

The cottages have beamed ceilings and many original features but they are very much 21st century exuding luxury, comfort and warmth (including premium quality bed linen, comfy beds with mattress toppers, robes and sumptuous towels). We will greet you personally with a welcome tray, pot of tea, locally made scones and preserves. Our aim is to provide you with a lovely, relaxing, self indulgent treat in a fantastic location with incredible views and wonderful walking straight from the door! We want you to have a great holiday and go home refreshed and ready to meet the world again!
