If you’re planning a group holiday in the Peak District and driving an electric vehicle, you can now relax knowing you can charge your car right where you’re staying. At Littonfields Barn, we’ve recently installed a Hypervolt Home PRO 3 EV 7kW charger so you can enjoy your trip without worrying about finding public charging points.
This addition makes our luxury barn conversion even more convenient for eco-conscious travellers and electric car owners. You can park up, plug in, and wake up ready for another day exploring the Peaks.
Simple, Guest-Friendly EV Charging
We want your holiday to be as straightforward as possible, so we’ve made the EV charger free to use for guests. Instead of asking you to download an app or pay for electricity separately, we’ve chosen to include a small nominal amount in our booking rate to cover most of the charging costs. That way, there’s no need to keep track of usage or arrange payments during your stay.
The charger is ready whenever you need it – just plug in and charge.
About the Charger
Our Hypervolt Home PRO 3 EV 7kW charger is a high-quality, reliable unit that’s also compatible with solar panels. It’s fitted with a 10-metre tethered cable and a Type 2 connector, the most common charging standard in the UK and across Europe.
With 7kW charging power, most vehicles can achieve a full overnight charge, meaning you can set off each morning with maximum range – perfect for days spent exploring the Peak District’s villages, trails, and scenic roads.
Why an EV Charger Matters for Your Stay
If you’ve stayed in rural locations before, you’ll know public EV charging points aren’t always convenient – and they can be busy during peak holiday seasons. By having your own charger at your accommodation, you avoid:
- Driving out of your way to find a charger
- Waiting for a public point to become available
- Having to plan your day around charging stops
Instead, you can plug in when you get back from your day out and relax while your car charges overnight.
The Perfect Base for EV Road Trips
Littonfields Barn is centrally located in the heart of the Peak District, meaning you can explore both the White Peak and Dark Peak areas with ease. Day trips from here might include:
- Bakewell – Famous for its puddings, independent shops, and riverside walks.
- Buxton – A spa town with beautiful Georgian architecture and the Pavilion Gardens.
- Monsal Trail – A traffic-free cycling and walking route with stunning viaduct views.
- Castleton – Known for its show caves and historic Peveril Castle.
- Chatsworth House – One of the UK’s most impressive stately homes.
With an EV charger on site, you can enjoy scenic drives through the Peaks without having to search for a charging station before heading back.
A Sustainable Travel Choice
We believe making sustainable travel easier is part of the future of tourism in the Peak District. By offering on-site EV charging, we’re helping guests reduce their carbon footprint and enjoy an eco-friendly break without sacrificing convenience.
Our Hypervolt charger’s solar compatibility also means we’re ready to make the most of renewable energy as our farm continues to develop its green initiatives.
More Than Just EV-Friendly
While the EV charger is a fantastic addition, it’s just one of the many features that make Littonfields Barn a great choice for your next break:
- Sleeps up to 12 guests across five beautiful en-suite bedrooms
- Spacious living areas with huge comfy sofas and an oak dining table for shared meals
- Heated Games Barn with pool table, table football, and toddler play area
- Child-friendly facilities and a playground just across the road
- Village location with shop and pub serving great food within walking distance
- Walking and cycling routes straight from the door, including the Litton Loop and Cressbrook Dale
It’s a place where you can arrive, park up, and spend your entire holiday without needing to get back in the car – but if you do, your EV will be ready to go.
