Is Piggery Place Right For Your Group

Discover why this cottage is the one for your party or family reunion...

For Families
The barn's rural setting gives children space to explore Peak District countryside from the doorstep. The open-plan layout means parents can supervise easily whilst cooking or relaxing. Buxton's Pavilion Gardens offers playgrounds 3 miles away. Poole's Cavern provides underground adventure 2.5 miles from the barn. The single-storey design suits families with younger children who struggle with stairs.
Groups Will Love...
The exposed stone walls throughout Piggery Place create genuine barn character in every room. These thick agricultural walls provide natural insulation and authentic Derbyshire texture that modern builds cannot replicate. The stonework frames the open-plan living space and continues into both bedrooms, giving constant reminders you're staying in a real converted farm building. French doors contrast beautifully against the rough stone, connecting the original structure with Peak District views outside.
Pet Friendly
Piggery Place does not accept pets during your stay. The rural Peak District location and surrounding farmland would suit dogs perfectly for countryside walks and outdoor exploration. However, the owner's policy means you cannot bring cats or dogs to this barn conversion. You'll need to arrange kennels or pet-sitters if you're travelling with animals. The decision keeps the barn suitable for guests with allergies.
