The 'Secret' @ Peak Serenity

Peak Serenity is a converted 18th-century barn nestling in seclusion at the heart of the White Peak close to the villages of Elton, Alport and Youlgreave (renowned for their well dressings), with Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall also nearby.

Accommodation

The luxury accommodation is found on the 1st floor of our beautifully converted, 18th-century barn, featuring original beams and sandstone walls. An en-suite bathroom with spa bath completes the overall ambience of the apartment which will help to restore your body and inner being.

The Barn is available to hold training and team-building meetings, community group meetings and charity events including coffee mornings and small dinners.

Wake up and enjoy the exquisite view of rolling countryside through the picture window of your bedroom. Experience the quietness, and at times savour the mist lying in the field, then as the sun warms and clears it, at certain times of the year, see the deer lying in the meadow.

The Secret@Peak Serenity is an ideal spot for honeymooners who can, if they wish, just stay and watch the world go by in their own secret hide-away.
