About this property

Beautifully renovated traditional stone barn cottage.family and pet friendlyWiFi

Hayfield View is a family owned, dog friendly (2 dog maximum), cosy and welcoming holiday let a mere hop, skip and a jump away from Hayfield -­ one of the prettiest villages in the Peak District.

Our luxury camping barn used to house our collection of rescued chickens; now it’s a home from home for weary walkers. Situated a little way from the main house among nine acres of heather moorland and pasture, yet also within easy walking distance of our guest parking area, the barn sleeps two to six people. There’s a double bed and two single bunks, as well as a comfortable double sofa bed upstairs for use by larger groups or families.

To take full advantage of the views across the surrounding fields and hills, we’ve put the kitchen and living area upstairs and kept the bedroom and shower room downstairs. Facilities available include a combi microwave, hob, fridge, kettle, and toaster in the kitchen, and there’s a big TV and a large, comfy sofa in the living area.

There’ll be a warm welcome when you arrive, and all the essentials , (butter, milk, breakfast cereals, tea, coffee, biscuits and wine) to help you settle right in from the minute you get here. Plus we’re chock-­full of local knowledge and will do our best to help make your Derbyshire holiday a truly memorable one.

When it’s time to get out and about, it’s an easy drive to Peak District highlights like the Hope Valley and Castleton, the lovely spa town of Buxton, and the bright lights of Manchester... You may never get that far, though, since there’s some amazing walking and mountain biking country right outside our door: the gate at the rear of our property opens directly onto a lane leading up into the hills ­ and freedom!

Please note ​that access to the upstairs living room and kitchen is via a beautiful spiral staircase which, while lovely (and space-­saving!), may be a problem for some. If you think you or your pet might struggle with the stairs, please give us a call and ask any questions you need to before making the decision to book your stay. Thank you.

Lovely cottage
Warm, very clean & cosy! The views were great & I can imagine have the door upstairs open on a warm summers evening is bliss. Easy access to walks from the cottage and peaceful at quiet times. Hosts very respectful of privacy, would recommend

We had a brilliant stay. It was lovely to be able to go on walks straight from the property. Our dog loved running around in the huge space available from the front door. The cottage is really cozy and has everything we needed.

Excellent stay in the Peak District
Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed our time in the 'Chicken Barn' and appreciated all the thoughtful touches that makes travelling with kids more special (little treats and a kids book about the area left out for example). Despite the rain - we explored the area and made full use of the little kitchen and local eateries. Wish we lived closer so we could return again soon. Thanks so much - my two kiddos will be fondly talking about their time in the chicken barn for a very long time.

Super getaway.
Had a lovely short break at the camping barn. Husband and I with our border terrier. Property is well appointed and equipped with all you need. Stairs possibly a little challenging for small children and dogs. Lovely views and walks from the property. Hayfield has some great eateries. Hosts were extremely welcoming and even lent me their binoculars when I realised I had omitted to pack mine. We are hoping to return for another short break soon.

Short break
Perfect place for a short stay, clean and easy to start hiking right from the back door. Would recommend to anyone who’s looking for a short stay and lots of walking. They also provide all essentials you may forget including hygiene products and spices/cooking oil, milk, butter. Couldn’t have asked for a more relaxing stay.

Chicken barn delight
Quiet place with easy parking. The upstairs kitchen and lounge is actually very comfortable. There are quite a few stairs to climb before you get to the barn, don’t bring too many suitcases. If you travel a lot as we do you realize quickly how convenient it is having bedrooms downstairs. The walk in shower is a great touch, being 6’4 makes having showers very comfortable.

2nd visit to this wonderful place and was happy to be back!
This is an absolutely stunning property, Linda & Keith are the most thoughtful hosts, welcome package was brilliant and everything you can think of is provided from spare toothbrushes in the bathroom to dog poop bags in the cupboard! I’ve visited this barn back in 2019 and was so excited to come back, this time with my friend and our dogs. Absolutely massive enclosed space for them to run around in and beautiful walks straight from the front door so if you are a hiker, mountain biker or just a dog Walker like me you will love it here. The barn is warm and cosy with beautiful views. I will definitely be back again and my friend feels the same. Thank you for a wonderful stay x

About the host

Hosted by Linda and Keith Scowcroft

Host profile image
Chinley Moor House has been part of our family for a long time. Linda was born and grew up here, and we bought the house from Linda's parents after the birth of our first son, to bring up our own family in. Our two sons are now grown up and, since our retirement, we've turned our attention to making our home pay its way!
We love the regular visits we have from our 11 year old Grandson who enjoys walking the many hilly walks from our doorstep.

Why they chose this property

It is in a beautiful location and stands on its own in 8 acres of grassland.
It is quiet, warm and cosy and has been described as' really quirky'
You can walk from your door up the lane to many Peak District walks-- Kinder Scout, Edale etc
The property is very well stocked and our guests comment on the little extras available in the barn that make their stay extra special.
