The Old Hall is a beautiful 17th Century Grade II Listed property in the picturesque village of Foolow, close to Eyam and Bakewell. The house is a fantastic space for spending time with family or friends, with a spacious living/dining room with hand crafted oak dining table seating 8 guests, complete with log burner in the huge open range fireplace. The perfect retreat after long days spent exploring the Peaks, or a wonderful haven for those rainy days, with lots of books and board games to keep the whole family occupied! The village of Foolow is a picturesque and tranquil place, and makes a perfect base to explore the myriad attractions of the Peak District. Bakewell, Chatsworth, Longshaw and the Monsal Trail are all within 15mins drive, and there are numerous circular walks from the front door and further afield. The master suite is a huge draw, with luxury en suite bathroom. There are two further bedrooms on the top floor: a bunk room, and a room with a standard double and a single daybed. Please note the bunk room is separated from the landing by a curtain rather than a wall, and therefore sound can travel up from the main living spaces to this room easily. Please note that the historic nature of the property means that the stone staircase is a little uneven. Young children may need supervision, but there is a retractable stair gate on the top floor where the second and third bedrooms are located.

My husband and I both work in international development, and split our time between the UK and Africa. The Old Hall is our much-loved home when we are back in the UK. We are always at the end of a phonecall or email to solve any queries, and our cleaners and handyman live locally and can pop in to resolve anything that can’t be solved with guidance.

Foolow is a beautiful, quiet Peak District village with a wonderful pub and duckpond, and beyond that, tranquility! Lots of lovely walks right from the front door, and plenty more to do and see within a short drive away from the house.
