About this cottage rental

The Hay Barn is situated on the Upper Peak Forest Canal at New Mills Marina in the foothills of the High Peak District. The property has been recently and lovingly restored maintaining its rich history and period features.The Hay Barn has a double bed in one bedroom on a mezzanine floor that provides excellent views across the Upper Peak Forest Canal, Kinder Scout and surrounding hills. The lower floor comprises of a dining and seating area, a fully fitted and fully equipped kitchen, bathroom and shower. There is a good quality leather occasional bed settee on the lower floor should four people wish to stay. The property is centrally heated and has a multi fuel stove for those colder evenings. All logs, kindling and coal if required is supplied within the price of the let. There is a BBQ and seating area located directly outside the door in a beautiful sunny aspect, grassed area. The property has television and WiFi.

The town of New Mills is but a walk away and has all amenities that you will require throughout your stay. Local grocery stores, supermarket, post office, restaurants and pubs are all within a 5 minute walk away from the marina.

The property is ideally suited for hill walking, particularly Kinder Scout and surrounding hills. The canal towpath provides less challenging, flat walking to Whaley Bridge and Buxworth Basin in one direction and Disley, Marple and beyond in the other direction. The towpath is ideally suited for cycling and the Monsal Trail a 8.5 mile traffic free cycle route is a short drive away.

The property is close to excellent transport links. A reliable bus service connects New Mills with local villages such as Buxton, Bakewell, Glossop and Chapel - en - le - Frith while train services connect to Manchester and Stockport.

The location was perfect for exploring. We were on canal boat property. We could walk the towpath to a brand new Tesco superstore. The train was a five-minute walk. Manchester was 30 minutes by train. We were within a half hours drive of some of the best hikes in the high peaks. Whenever we go to the UK we make sure our National Trust membership is up to date but we found the hiking so exhilarating that we only visited one national trust property during our two-week stay. The cottage was cozy, good bath with great water pressure and plenty of hot water. Water from the tap was cool and good tasting. Stairs to the bedroom are a bit steep but a good sturdy handrail. The place could use a place to hang clothes and better reading lights as the living area has only one window. We never once turned on the television.

Small but cosy, everything was catered for, just could have done with some hanging space for clothes. Pubs near by and a lovely walk along the canal. Friendly greeting on arrival.

We stayed at the New Barn and we loved every minute. Very welcoming, quiet, relaxing and dog friendly. There is a BBQ area which we used on both nights. If you are looking for a private area just for your family, then this wouldn’t be the best choice as the bbq area is for everyone but we were lucky that we had the area to ourselves. The views are amazing and my 3 year old daughter enjoyed walking and there’s a park, pubs, chippy and local shop nearby. Lyme Park is about 8 minutes away and we went there one day. The barn was spotless and tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits and milk were provided which was a lovely touch. Would definitely return! Thanks for an amazing weekend

We were able to stay at really short notice to visit family in the area. We arrived late but everything was set up for us to move in and have that all important cup of tea! It's in the newly developed Marina, really nice and quiet but close to New Mills and easy access for walking in the area. We will definitely be looking to stay again

Lovely place to stay

Thank you for letting my little dog Jack stay at The Haybarn which is near to the town of New Mills (10 minute to walk into town) which has shops, pubs and places to eat . Great views from the property and beside the canal with good walks (despite the bad weather). Accommodation is well kept, clean and has everything you need for your stay. The owners introduced themselves and were available for any concerns (we did not need anything). I would definitely return and recommend this property to my friends and family. I thought the price was really reasonable.
