Rowthorne Village is an ideal location for that relaxing care-free break at anytime of the year. The village is only a 5 minute drive from junction 29 of the M1 yet it is almost in another world, set in the heart of beautiful Derbyshire countryside. There are ten houses scattered throughout the village with two working farms, both arable and live stock.

Pear Tree Farm itself was a working farm up to about twenty-five years ago when the farm and its outbuildings fell into disrepair. The then owners (Chatsworth Estate) decided to sell the property as five separate units and each one has been lovingly restored to a very high standard.

The Barn is the last of the outbuildings to be restored being completed in 2003, providing high quality accommodation that is furnished to a high standard. Pear Tree Farm Barn is the only holiday accommodation available in the Village.

The hedgerows and local woodland are full of wild flowers and wildlife.

The road into the village is quite narrow and for most of the day very, very quiet. The barn is about 300M down the lane on the right, next door to the farm house.

On a cold winters day, walking to Hardwick and looking back across the fields to the village there are some excellent views.

If you are a keen photographer there are some real opportunities for stunning shots.
