The Barn @ Dale End House, Gratton nr Bakewell

One of just six farmhouses in the rural parish of Gratton, Dale End House is found on a quiet lane in the heart of the Peak District National Park. It enjoys unspoilt countryside, popular with walkers and mountain bikers alike yet is only six miles from Bakewell and Matlock. We discovered Dale End House whilst mountain biking through Gratton Dale and instantly fell in love with it. Surrounded by breath-taking views, and abundant wildlife - Gratton is one of Derbyshire’s best-kept secrets.
