Close by is Hardwick Hall, built in the 1590s by ’Bess of Hardwick’, the second most powerful woman in England after Queen Elizabeth I. The Hall, and even its original tapestries and textiles, have survived unaltered for four centuries, and it is now open to the public by the National Trust. Near the estate’s original water mill, still in operation and open to visitors, is the Hardwick Inn, also built in the 16th century, probably by the masons who built the hall.

Do not be put off by the title Little Barn, as it was more than adequate for us and our large boiste
Do not be put off by the title Little Barn, as it was more than adequate for us and our large boisterous GSD puppy. Liz and Phil are the most hardworking genuine couple , not intrusive but always available if we needed them.The accomodation was clean restful and comfortable throughout , and the views from the cottage were wonderful .Little touches like decorations for Xmas , lovely hamper of goodies and potted plants were very much appreciated . You are only a few miles from the pretty towns of Matlock , Matlock Bath and Bakewell , and there are many pubs and restaurants especially takeaways if you do not wish to cook. We loved our time there, and will return someday .We wish Liz and Phil and their family every success for the future .
