Located only a mile from Chesterfield, guests are never far away from a wide selection of eateries and shops. A day spent bargain hunting at Chesterfield Market is a must, and the famous crooked church spire is well worth a visit. A short drive west will bring you to the sprawling Peak District National Park where, along with the many walks and cycle paths, historic Chatsworth House can be visited.

A small porch with handy boot racks and coat hooks welcome you into this property and into the heart of this spacious house into the games room and guide you through an arched opening into the spacious sitting room. With a cosy log burning stove, wooden floors, occasional rugs and comfortable sofas, this is a fantastic family room with a giant wide screen tv. The kitchen features cream units, a large window, good sized breakfast table and is fully equipped for your stay. Family meals can be enjoyed in the formal dining room with another log burning stove, which overlooks the garden to one side and the private indoor swimming pool through lockable French windows to the other. This offers the perfect opportunity to relax with a few lengths after a long day of walking, or enjoy some time in the water with the children. Also on this floor is a utility room, shower room and further shower area by the pool, both with toilets.

Upstairs you will find the four bedrooms, which includes a spacious master with a king sized double bed and family bathroom with a roll top bath and a large walk in shower cubicle, wash basin and toilet. There are two further double bedrooms and a fourth with four single beds – an ideal dormitory for children. A further family bathroom with a bath, wash basin and toilet completes this floor.

Outside you will find various areas including an impressive outdoor bar where you can sit and enjoy some sun or a tasty BBQ.  There is also access to a bright modern toilet room from the outside area and plenty of off road parking.

Overall we had a lovely time, a few niggling bits but hopefully they will be sorted out. Beds are all comfortable and roomy the lounge could do with updating, we all enjoyed the swimming pool and the woodman games room.

Tha house is comfortable, well equipped and provides excellent facilities for 10 people. 5 children ranging from 13 to 6 and 5 adults. The bedrooms were large and the beds comfortable. The pool was amazing and the children spent hours in there. The adults loved the woodman shed . The wood burner made it very cosy and the pool table was a big draw.

Booked the house for a family birthday / holiday and it's fair to say everyone in their own way enjoyed the time we spent there. Comfortable and relaxed feel to the house overall. Weather being good on the whole meant we could spend a lot of time outside and the "Woodman Bar" was a focus of evening entertainment in particular; never played so much Read morepool in ages :) Private swimming pool was a nice luxury that was used a lot.
