About this house rental
The 17th Century Farm and Barn are built of local pink stone in the heart of the Peak District National Park. Our scenic rural location is surrounded by acres of fields and woods - our only neighbours being sheep, wild birds, and our rescue hens. Perfect for large families or groups of friends to enjoy a healthy break away from it all with
clean fresh air, starry skies, no passing cars or people. There are many beautiful walks from the doorstep – one favourite is a circular route along the nearby spectacular Roaches ridge via picture-perfect Wincle and its excellent country pub the Ship Inn.
High Ridge Barn is architect designed and recently renovated throughout to provide luxurious modern and comfortable self-catering accommodation with superb views across Swythamley valley.
The enormous double-height barn has 4 double bedrooms sleeping up to 8 people plus babes in arms, 2 of which can be arranged as large singles or king/super king sized beds. 3 bathrooms mean no queues for the loo! The living/dining room with Scandi log-burner leads directly from the new high-end kitchen equipped with Neff appliances and is so well equipped our guests tell us we have things here they didn’t know they needed! Everything from super-fast broadband to 1,000 thread bed linen to fluffy towels, bathrobes, slippers and logs down to an oyster shucker – High Ridge Barn has it all.
The Barn has private half-acre landscaped dog-secure gated and fenced gardens and parking for up to 5 cars. There’s a large wood-fired outdoor sauna, a BBQ, secure bike storage, and a dog grooming cabin with all the mod cons. Up to 4 pets are very welcome.
For special occasions please ask for details of our Celebration Packages. Fantastic bespoke cakes from an expert local baker, wonderful flowers courtesy our skilled and creative florist, bunting, balloons - all ready for your arrival. At Christmas the Barn is decorated with a real tree, dog-safe decorations, oodles of warm white fairy lights, illuminated wreaths and lots of festive Scandi decorations and LED candles.
Leek is a mere 15-minute drive away and has a great selection of supermarkets and award-winning restaurants, takeaways and deliveries.
If you do need to work without disturbing the rest of your group, we'll set up one of the four bedrooms as an office with a desk, Anglepoise lamp, colour printer and a Herman Miller ergonomic chair. Zoom and Teams meetings are easy courtesy the superfast broadband.

Perfect location for walking and 5 star facilities for dogs, especially if they get wet or muddy.
Accommodation is high quality and well equipped and we hope to return some day.
Only concern is that we had to constantly watch small children because of the number of steps inside the barn

We had such a wonderful weekend at High Ridge. Rob and Rosie were perfect hosts throughout. A lovely welcome pack! Everything in the property feels well thought out. Lots of little touches like umbrellas, sliders for use outside… so many things that make it an easy place to stay.
Well stocked kitchen with useful and quality items. We brought our little dog who was living his best life! Dogs are clearly welcome and there were lots of extras there for him. Fully enclosed garden also made it easy. Great local walks.
We definitely want to come back and wouldn’t think twice about booking High Ridge. In fact, we’d like to live there!
Big thanks to Rosie and Rob for being top hosts.

We all thoroughly enjoyed this fabulous barn as a base for the preparation for our daughter's wedding. We had a wonderful relaxing time there amid the busy schedule. The barn itself is amazing, so well equipped and set in a beautiful location.
The hosts, Rosie and Rob were great too, with suggestions for exploring the area and helping make the stay memorable.
Would love to return at some point when we could spend more time walking and exploring.

This property is absolutely perfect, I cannot recommend it highly enough. It's better than the photos and the owners have thought of and stocked with everything you need, even packing away our shopping order. Its luxurious but comfortable and as we travelled with two young dogs very dog friendly. The pups had a safe enclosed spoace to run and play and a grooming hut to wash off muddy paws. Lovely views and some great walking in the area. Will definately look at booking again and recommend it.

A home away from home
We literally could not fault the property, it had everything we needed and more. The bedrooms were all spacious and had dressing gowns provided and earplugs should you not be used to the sound of sheep. The bathrooms were grand and had little extras such as toothpaste, face cloths, Bath salts and toiletries, the kitchen is very well stocked, the Woodburner provided a cozy atmosphere, there are boardgames to entertain, a boot warmer for after a day of walking nearby and a sauna. Rosie and Rob were very easy going and very happy to chat and even planned a walk which would allow us to stop at a park for the children and grab lunch at a pub.
I would love to visit again

Amazing holiday!
The barn is absolutely stunning. It is so cosy and in the perfect location for walking routes and good pub food. Our hosts were brilliant, they provided fresh bread and eggs for our stay and were very helpful if we needed anything. We cannot recommend this place enough.

Stunning barn in the Peak District
Beautiful spacious barn in the most peaceful of surroundings. Everything you need is here and more. We were two couples and were spoilt for choice when it came to the bedrooms and who was sleeping where! Our two dogs loved the outside which was fully enclosed and even got to use the dog wash house too. Our first visit to the Peak District and it didn’t disappoint. Rob and Rosie were the perfect hosts, the weather was glorious and the barn was wonderful. Highly recommended!

Best Peak District experience
I could not recommend High Ridge barn or the hosts more highly. The barn is absolutely beautiful: the views are sublime, it is tastefully decorated and cleverly converted keeping original features while adding all the mod cons and absolutely everything you may need to feel at home away from home. Our children aged 9 and 10 loved it all, the garden, the sheep in the field next door, the hens, the birds, the board games, the dog grooming area, the fire place and of course the superfast wifi. The barn is located in an area of outstanding natural beauty and we really enjoyed some fantastic walks soaking in the views and the pure air. The hosts were the kindest and most attentive I’ve met so far, they even set up an office for my husband to work in and provided alternative food for our dog when she refused her usual one. Stay at the barn if you get the chance, we will come back as soon as we can!

Family break at High Ridge Barn
Our family gathered for a 'big' birthday celebration at beautiful High Ridge Barn. The barn and grounds were fantastic. Everything done to such a high specification with no expense spared. Rob and Rosie were so helpful and couldn't do enough for us. 3 year old Jack loved feeding the chickens and playing in the garden with all the outdoor games provided. Marley the dog enjoyed a wash and blowdry in the pet parlour. The adults in the party loved relaxing in the sauna after a busy day. All the furnishings and bed linens were of the highest quality and the kitchen provided more gadgets than we could imagine.
It was lovely to arrive to a fresh loaf of home made bread. cake and local brewery beer, as well as milk, tea etc. We highly recommend High Ridge Barn and thank Rob and Rosie for providing such a super property.

Pristine and well thought out barn
Beautiful Barn conversion set in picturesque and peaceful surroundings. The owners have thought of everything, from a dog grooming shed, slippers and dressing gowns, a lovely welcome package on arrival, and even offered to receive and put away our online shopping. Would highly recommend and will hopefully return again.

Beautiful barn stay
This property is beautiful and everything in it is high end quality. The 8 of us and dog had a fabulous time chilling out, playing boardgames and enjoyed a lovely bbq. Everything you could possibly need is provided and the welcome hamper is a lovely touch. Would definitely stay here again and recommend for anyone looking for a luxurious sanctuary. Very dog friendly which was so refreshing. Thanks for a wonderful stay

Pretty
Driving into our place we were so pleased with the lovely surroundings both outside and inside the unit. Greeted enthusiastically by our hostess. Freshly baked loaf, bottle of homemade jam, baking and very local eggs awaited us.
Unit had every item needed for a lovely stay. Assorted coffee makers, gas stove, dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer. Luxurious towels and even bath robes. Everything was spotless, and we had no aversion to running around barefoot. (Shoes left in porch and slippers were provided). Advise that drive in is quite rustic. And do mind a triple layering of ground floor - so must watch out for step downs.

Return visit
Having spent a wonderful family weekend at High Ridge Barn in September last year we were eager to return. We received a warm welcome from owners Rob and Rosie. The welcome pack is the best I’ve come across. Homemade bread, muffins, local beer and bottled water. 6 months on the barn is still in pristine condition. The weather was glorious and we were able to further explore the local area. Another great weekend.

Great house, great location, very welcoming hosts
We had a lovely break in the Peak District, and really enjoyed staying at High Ridge Barn. It’s newly refurbished, well designed, and stocked with everything we needed for our mixed troop of kids, teens, middlers and oldies. Rosie and Rob were so welcoming and really cared about the quality of our stay. Thoroughly recommend and hope to return in the future.

Absolutely fabulous and stylish property, in an incredible location
The property is wonderfully presented and is absolutely immaculate throughout. The furnishings and fittings are of an extremely high standard, it has been modernised with great care and detail whilst managing to retain character with its original features subtly positioned in each room. As soon as we entered the property we were immediately taken in by it’s cosy atmosphere which certainly helped us relax and enjoy the fabulous countryside and views. The surrounding area is simply beautiful. The property is ideally positioned for walking and exploring this exquisite part of the Peak District. On arrival, we were provided with a guided tour and the owners had baked us fresh bread and muffins and had left a few bottles of real ale from the Wincle Brewery, and some fresh eggs which was a lovely gesture. If you book this property, you will not be disappointed I promise. Thank you Rob and Rosie for an amazing break!

Paradise in the Peak District
Sometimes reality does not match the anticipation. Nothing could be further from such at Highridge Barn as the”WoW” factor kicks in from the moment the outstanding hosts, Ron and Rosie, welcome you. The accommodation surpasses any anticipation from the pictures on the website - spacious, light, fitted out to the highest specification and equipped for every eventuality. The dog grooming facilities were so good that Grandpa contemplated using them as a private facility! The sauna is a must - as it is a proper sauna with cold (and hot!) shower. The scenery is stunning and the walks from the front door are awesome. By now you will have gleaned that our time in Highridge Barn was very, very special. Rob and Rosie have endeavoured to make your stay as special as they can - successfully; no self-catering accommodation will ever be the same again as they have set the benchmark very high indeed. Have no qualms, this is one booking you will not regret!
