With far-reaching views of the rolling Peak District countryside, this former post office has been lovingly converted into a charming cottage for couples or a small family. Relax in the cosy living room or dine alfresco in the courtyard garden of this welcoming home.

Enter through the kitchen/diner, a well-equipped bright and open space with a dining table set against captivating views of the surrounding countryside. The lounge offers an inviting atmosphere with an electric wood burner-effect fireand plenty of comfortable seating. Climb the stairs to discover two light and airy bedrooms, each furnished with a double bed and colourful accent fabrics. A gleaming family bathroom completes the internal layout. Outside, an enclosed courtyard provides a private spot to dine, while a bench seat allows you to sit back and enjoy the beautiful views this property offers.

The cottage was lovely and very comfortable. The location was great, near everything we wanted to do. The Peak District is somewhere we would love to go again.

Cosy, comfortable, well positioned and well equipped. Ideal base for seeing the White Peak District. Good facilities to hand in nearby Wirksworth (walkable). Great, dog friendly walks from the door.

This is a lovely cottage in a fabulous location. Clean and simple but with nice touches like the doggie tray and welcome basket. I loved working at the kitchen table overlooking the view or having coffee on the front bench. Wirksworth is easy to walk to with quirky shops and pubs and there were good dog walks and brief drive day trips like Matlock Read moreDale or Cromford. Highly recommended, with friendly hosts with great tips. I would go back tomorrow. Hide

Cottage was absolutely beautiful, so fresh and clean- very well stocked kitchen and the views from the front door and upstairs window were fabulous, parking was a bit of a nightmare but we managed and the dog loved looking at the sheep on the field across the road. Would definitely recommend for a couple.
