Owner's perspective - We have thoroughly enjoyed living in the barn and raising our family here over the last 14 years. It is a great family home, with lots of space for hosting lots of different occasions. Although spacious, the house feels cosy. We enjoy spending time in the garden and love having the horses close by. Derby, Ashbourne and Uttoxeter are all close and there are several lovely country pubs, as well as a fine dining restaurant within a very short drive.
