The Barrel Inn, dating back to 1597, is a traditional country inn with its unique character. The cosy and peaceful oak-beamed bar, its old-fashioned charm still very much intact, has flagstones, studded doors in low doorways, lots of pictures and antiques. Stubs of massive knocked through walls divide it into several areas. There are seats out on the front terrace and a new covered courtyard garde

n at the rear gives good shelter from the breeze. Laying claim to being the highest pub in Derbyshire, the Barrel Inn is surrounded by breathtaking scenery in the Peak District National Park. At the Barrel Inn we pride ourselves on our exceptional cuisine using only the finest local, fresh produce. This, along with its open log fires and hand pulled real ales, makes the Barrel the perfect place to relax and unwind. Our four luxury en-suite bedrooms are furnished to a high standard to ensure your stay is comfortable and relaxed. Each bedroom is equipped with television and tea and coffee making facilities. Centrally located, the Barrel Inn is an ideal place to explore the area's many historic villages and stately homes which are only a short drive away. On a clear day it is possible to see five counties.
