Set in Chelmorton village, there are wonderful walks from the door and beautiful countryside to explore in every direction. In the summer you can sit out on your own private patio and enjoy the peace and tranquility.

Chelmorton is situated right at the heart of the Peak District National Park and therefore offers the perfect base for exploring the area. It is an ancient Derbyshire village in the 'White Peak' and is renowned for the surrounding narrow strip fields bounded by limestone walls which trace the patterns of medieval farming methods. Today the fields enclose herds of nibbling sheep and grazing cows.

As a Conservation village, not on the way to anywhere, it is peaceful and safe. Very little traffic goes up and down the road and you are just as likely to see sheep being herded up the street or a few hens wandering about. There are no shops in the village, however the Church Inn (which serves good food) is just two minutes walk from Swallow Barn.

All around is the spectacular landscape of the Peak District. The picturesque dales of the rivers Wye, Lathkill, Dove and Derwent are all less than 15 minutes from Chelmorton. Footpaths branch out from the village in every direction and it is possible to have car-free days on foot or bicycle.

Several market towns, including Buxton, Bakewell, Ashbourne and Leek are within easy reach by car or bus, offering traditional shopping as well as a choice of supermarkets.
