Set in the Peak District National Park and showcasing a wonderful blend of old meets new, this inviting stone-built retreat for couples or a family successfully marries contemporary finishes with the cottage's original rustic charm, accompanied by far-reaching countryside views.

The well-equipped kitchen is ideal for family dining, complete with everything you need to prepare meals during your stay. A breakfast table and seating area with a wall-mounted TV and a selection of books offer a cosy spot for relaxation. On one side of the kitchen, a twin bedroom with countryside views awaits, alongside a convenient utility room. On the opposite side, a master bedroom promises a peaceful night's sleep. Climb five stone steps to the spacious lounge/diner, bathed in natural light from numerous windows that frame views of the garden. Sink into the comfortable sofas while enjoying TV entertainment, kindle the warmth of the wood burner, or share memorable meal times around the dining table. The fully enclosed rear garden features comfortable outdoor seating, a dining table with chairs, and a charcoal BBQ. Framed by an ancient estate stone wall, the garden overlooks a beautiful wildflower meadow. The front garden maximizes the spectacular views toward Mam Tor, offering decking and outdoor furniture.

Providing convenient access to the popular Monsal Trail (2 miles), this cottage is a haven for both walkers and cyclists. The traffic-free trail winds through some of the most stunning dales of the Peak District for 8.5 miles from Chee Dale to Bakewell. The Pennine Bridleway and Limestone Way are also nearby, offering further exploration opportunities. The spa town of Buxton (3.5 miles) boasts shopping, dining, and the impressive Buxton Opera House. Buxton's Pavilion Gardens provides a wonderful day out with a boating lake, miniature railway, soft play area, and an indoor botanical garden with a retail space. Don’t miss the picturesque market town of Bakewell or the magnificent Chatsworth House, both within 12 miles of home.

The potting shed is unusual in that its a conservatory. The main area is spacious and unique in its seventies vibe. The kitchen is really well equipped and a great place to hang out with the amazing views.

Lovely cottage, comfortable. Wood burner gave off excellent heat, living room very spacious. Not far from Tideswell and the Monsal trail. Lots of other walks but only had a short time there and weather wasnt kind.

We had a fantastic stay. Lovely location. Access and parking was a bit of an issue to the potting shed (but we do have a van, ). Lovely walks from the doorstep. For anyone who swims, there is a reservoir about 10 mins away, combs reservoir. Cottage has everything you need, garden a little smaller than expected but secure.
