Located in rural countryside in the grounds of the owners 135 acres property, this is truly an outstanding location in which to relax and enjoy some spectacular views in barn conversions which have been sympathetically and very individually restored. The farm and buildings, Grade 11 listed, date back to the 14th century, once a medieval monastic sheep farm belonging to Garendon Abbey which is in secluded surroundings . On the edge of Biggin Dale, which leads into Wolfscote Dale, Dovedale and beyond, this is an ideal base for both walking and cycling (from the doorstep) in this very picturesque area of the Peak National Park. Centrally located the Tissington and Manifold Trails are both nearby, along with the country houses of Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, Kedleston Hall, Sudbury and Tissington Hall. The cottages are accessed from a long sweeping drive. |

| A few steps, and a path, takes you to the rear of the detached cottage, through the walled garden, from where you enter the property into the lounge/dining area. To your left is the imposing gritstone fireplace with inset log burning stove. The flagstone floor, with occasional rugs, leads through to the very well equipped and fitted kitchen, that has granite work tops, and is open to the lounge area. The room has beamed and vaulted ceilings throughout. On the top side of the kitchen area is cupboard storage with a door taking you up several steps to the very large and imposing bedroom. It has a king sized four poster bed, occasional seating, and a vaulted ceiling with a king post truss and exposed beams, giving this room plenty of charm and character. Off the bedroom is the main bathroom, with a bath, toilet, hand basin, bidet and separate shower cubicle. The patio, and enclosed garden, with its south facing aspect, takes in the views of the Biggin Dale and beyond. The dining table in Courtyard Creamery seats six people in order for all the cottages guests to eat together. This cottage is one of three cottages at the same location which can be booked together to sleep 6 people, the others are: PK493 Cheese Press Cottage (Sleeps 2), PK495 Courtyard Creamery (Sleeps 2) |
