This delightful barn conversion is set in a small valley just outside the picturesque village of Kniveton and is less than 500 metres from the local pub and a little further over fields to a good gastropub. Wander around the stables adjoining the cottage and meet the horses, and the owner's dogs will give you a friendly welcome too. Ashbourne (3 miles) has a market square, country stores, antique shops, art galleries and restaurants, making for a lovely afternoon out. Historic Wirksworth (7 miles) has a heritage centre and the Ecclesbourne Valley heritage railway, which runs through one of Derbyshire’s most lovely and unspoilt valleys. Carsington Water (7 miles) offers wild water sports, birdwatching and cycle trails.
Step into this beautifully designed cottage and you’ll be charmed by its traditional features which blend with luxury touches. The lounge features original beams, exposed stone walls and oak floors, and is furnished with comfortable sofas, wood burning stove and a Smart TV. A dining area has original slate floors and an oak dining table with leather chairs, and the adjoining kitchen features bespoke units and oak surfaces. A stylish king-size bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, and a twin bedroom has two 4' beds, a sofa, TV, DVD and adjoining shower room with slate floors. While the property is mostly on one level, there are four steps up at the entrance and one large step into the main bedroom.
Outside is a sunny patio area with garden furniture for relaxing while your designated chef grills up a tasty dinner on the barbecue.
