Luxuriate in a stay at this truly special cottage in Belper. Sleeping five guests, and welcoming dogs, the three-bedroom hideaway, which is 12 miles from the Peak District, has been finished to an exceptionally high standard. Including a delightful garden for soaking up the summer sunshine and a lovely wood burner for winter days, this former mill worker’s home, which is under 500 metres from the town centre, is an outstanding holiday retreat.
Enter to hang your jackets and wander into the elegant lounge. Light the eye-catching wood burner, switch on the Smart TV, then settle on the plush soft seating. Wander through to the immaculate kitchen to whip up some Derbyshire delights with the produce you have bought in town, then set the table for dinner in the adjoining dining room, with its sloped ceiling and exposed brick wall. Make fresh coffee or open a bottle of chilled wine from the fridge and linger at the table with the door to the garden open on sunny days. Open a secret door in the kitchen to climb the stairs to the first floor of the cottage. Here, you will find all three of your sumptuous bedrooms: a king-size, a double and a single. The stylish family bathroom is also here. Savour the opportunities for outside living in the gorgeous garden at this Belper hideaway. Grill supper on the BBQ on the patio, play games with the children and pets on the lawn and picnic in the shade of the pear tree in the lovely orchard. Parking here is on the street, subject to availability.
Venture 8 miles to scenic Carsington Water to walk, fish, hire bikes or enjoy water sports. The Heights of Abraham, 9 miles away, where you can take a cable car ride, makes for another great day out.
