Hillocks Barn, Red Lion Hill, Brassington This character barn conversion has been completely renovated to provide extremely comfortable accommodation. Located within the Brassington Conservation Area, in an ancient lead-mining area, Hillocks Barn is situated up Red Lion Hill in a quiet, secluded part of this historic village. The village has two excellent pubs both serving a selection of beers and wines and fine food. Ye Olde Gate Inn, taking its name from the turnpike gate opposite, dates from 1616. Within a mile of the Peak District National Park and close to many famous tourist attractions, the area offers excellent walking and cycling opportunities and a wide range of water sports at Carsington Water, a mile to the South East.
