The Experience
You’re in the most beautiful part of Derbyshire; you could happily hole up here for weeks. All is deeply peaceful and comfortable in this fabulous barn conversion, with acres of fields to roam and your own garden to relax in. Find soft greys and lime plaster, lovely linen, latched doors and modern bathrooms (some baths, some showers). It’s the same in the stunning open-plan living area on the first floor with its amazing views and high vaulted ceilings.
Original local art adorns the walls, a wood-burner encourages lounging and cooks will be chuffed with the smart kitchen. The Clarkes – lovely people who live in the farmhouse – provide games, books, advice and logs. They’ll also leave you a homemade cake.
Nearby you’ll discover Peak District National Park walks, a good pub, Chatsworth House, Tissington, Haddon and Kedleston Hall.

Winnow Barn is a beautiful and tasteful renovation, Andrea and John have done a fabulous job. The living space is upstairs, it is a beautifully decorated and the kitchen dining, and seating areas all complement each other perfectly. The log burning stove is a great centre point and was very well received by us after a long drive on a Friday night. Andrea left a welcome pack, with cooking essentials and Madeira cake, what a treat. All the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and every shower was excellent; linen and towels fluffy. Lastly, listen to Andrea her recommendations of pubs are brilliant!

Just what we expected and more. Wonderful accommodation with everything provided that you would require for a self-catering weekend. The kitchen top folder was packed with information about local facilities, walks, etc. The farm is in a beautiful part of the peak district, in our opinion, and we would happily go back again. Ps the barn's acoustics were wonderful for musical evenings (un-plugged!) and didn't disturb the neighbours.

Location
The neighbourhood
Wander across the farmyard to visit the donkeys and pet goats or take a stroll to the Stepping Stones at Dovedale. The nearest pubs are a 30-minute walk – The George at Alstonefield and the Royal Oak at Wetton. Stock up at the Village Stores in nearby Hartington or there are bigger shops six miles away in Ashbourne.
Local points of interest from Andrea Clarke
- Fabulous walks and cycling from the doorstep - suitable for all abilities. Exert yourself in Wolfscote Dale, admire views from the top of Thorpe Cloud or simply amble down to the river Dove in Milldale. Guided walks can be arranged for all abilities.
- Explore the local market town of Ashbourne with a thriving antiques quarter and weekly market. Buxton - the pretty spa town with many shops, cafes and the Opera House. Bakewell - how could you resist a visit to the famous Bakewell Pudding shop!
- You're a 30 minute stroll to picturesque Dovedale and the famous stepping stones (or a 5 mins drive!) Cycle straight from the farm or for an easier ride choose one of the picturesque cycle trails close by (bike hire available) with cafes along the route.
- Alton Towers is only 20 mins away...a fabulous day out for all the family. Matlock Park Farm is always a hit as is Peak Wildlife Park and The Heights of Abraham. Why not hitch a ride at Peak steam Railway or Crich Tramway Museum. - great fun!
- Check out the wildlife, curlews, skylarks, buzzards, fieldfare, red kite, and kestrels are amongst a few of the regular visitors visible from the Barn….and not forgetting Dave of course, our resident barn owl can be heard calling most nights!
- Spend a day at Chatsworth exploring the gardens, looking around the house before a picnic on the lawns beside the cascade. Aafternoon tea in the farm shop cafe is always a treat. Kedleston, Sudbury, Haddon and Hardwick Halls are all a great day out too.

Introducing
Andrea Clarke
Andrea and John Clarke took on the restoration job of a lifetime when they bought Damgate Farm fourteen years ago, swapping their professional careers in Sheffield for rare-breed sheep and converting dilapidated barns into three beautiful holiday lets. Now that their two daughters have flown the coop for university they’ve moved in a flock of rescued ex-battery hens and two donkeys, along with a host of other animals who call the farm home.
Six of us, 3 generations including 3 teenagers had a wonderful Christmas in Winnow Barn.It is in a beautiful situation, surrounded by countryside and walks, ( beautiful Dovedale is very close by).The accommodation is finished to a very high standard throughout with plenty of room for us all. Having 4 ensuites was a real bonus.The open plan living area upstairs was lovely with plenty of space for us all to relax together, enjoy Christmas, cook and entertain. We really appreciated the welcome pack, lovely lemon drizzle cake and the Christmas gift.It was a wrench to leave, but we hope to be back.
