Occupying an idyllic spot in the Peak District, this peaceful reverse-level, stone cottage makes a fantastic retreat for couples and smaller families seeking a tranquil rural holiday home with spellbinding surroundings. With ample space for four guests, the imaginatively updated former farm building is part of a small complex of properties with a range of shared facilities including extensive grounds, dog paddocks, a charming guest garden and a fully equipped games room. With wooden beams, stylish interiors and a sweet courtyard garden, this delightful getaway is a wonderful base for walkers, cyclists, hikers and nature watchers exploring a magical part of the Derbyshire countryside.
A couple of steps lead up to the terrace then through into the tastefully furnished kitchen/diner, fully equipped, with a farmhouse-style dining table. The bathroom is also on this floor. Five steps lead up from the kitchen to a snug lounge. With skylights and timber beams in the low, sloping ceilings, this is a lovely space to snuggle up with a film in the evenings. From the kitchen a flight of steps leads down to the bedrooms – a soothing double and a cosy twin. Outside, the enclosed garden looks out towards the central courtyard and makes a relaxing spot for a morning coffee. The properties stand within 20 acres of peaceful grounds, with large fields, dog paddocks and a beautiful, shared guest garden perfect for a BBQ as you take in the stunning vistas. The games shed has a pool table, table tennis and table football and there’s ample parking space in the shared car park, as well as a sheltered bike store.
