Brink Barn | Barn Conversion

One of two barn conversions, converted from one large barn originally. Brink Barn has stunning valley views and is situated on the outskirts of the Peak District. The barn conversion has been fully fitted out to ensure you have a relaxing stay, and benefits from indoor lounge area with log burner. Brink Barn would be a fantastic base for walkers and explorers wanting to discover all the Peak District has to offer! We're really sorry, but as of 2023, we don't run the hot tub due to energy costs.
