Little Barn - Upper Hulme

Great location, cosy house, beautiful scenery. Has everything you need. Was clean and linens etc were wonderful. Short walk up from the barn to the roaches. Cattle grid meant the dog could wander about.

Access is via a steep zig zag track down from the main road. Worth being prepared, depending on your car, driving confidence and the weather. The footpath across the fields to the lazy trout has stiles that larger dogs- like mine! - may not be able to navigate.

The location, great value for money

Would have been nice to have a curtain/blind on the door and the widow by the dining table, for some privacy and shade but other than that it's perfect!

We spent a few relaxing days in the Little Barn. It's in a great, very beautiful location, excellent for starting some hikes right from the doorstep. It's in a very peaceful, remote area but close enough to Leek or Buxton if any shops are needed. The house is super cozy with a great fireplace that we enjoyed.

The road going downhill has some serious potholes on both sides, be very careful especially if you drive in the dark. It would be great to have some blinds for the door or the downstairs window to create more privacy - although nobody should be walking around the building, it would be nice to have the option. We also found the kitchen lacking some handy utensils to prepare meals or an extractor fan & overall functionality - the oven is right next to the sofa etc. Also the 'cheezy' sofa wasn't smelling nice, probably from the previous hikers who hadn't changed their socks :(

Incredible stay in an ideal location. Fantastic walks on your doorstep. Walkers dream. Few minutes walk from The Roaches hike. Barn itself was surprisingly spacious (even with a toddler) and comfortable. Views from the barn amazing. Would 100% stay again. The addition of a little toy basket for our son was a lovely gesture

Nothing to think of. Perfect for a short stay
