With a secret garden that younger guests will love to explore, this country cottage in the Derwent Valley is the perfect escape for adventure-seeking families. You’re well-placed to discover Derbyshire’s rich industrial history throughout any length of time here, enjoying the mill village architecture of Lea Bridge (0.5 miles) and multiple nearby attractions, including the Derwent Valley Mills (7 miles) and Cromford Mill (1 mile). Also a destination for dog walks, the property is pet-friendly and offers so many wonderful hiking routes within effortless reach. As well as the dogs, the accommodation hosts up to five guests, altogether making it an incredible, comfortable base for your next family holiday.
Comfort is the primary focus of this spacious cottage, enabling you to fully rest and recharge in between Peak District adventures. Downstairs, both a lounge and a conservatory have been furnished with large, plush sofas, ideally offering two spaces to unwind in. Between them, a kitchen is on hand with everything you need to feed the group, including that all-important air fryer. A dining room, utility and downstairs shower room complete this floor. Upstairs, the comfort continues across three bedrooms. These are served by another family bathroom, this one with a jacuzzi-style bath in the corner. Outside, the garden is tree-lined and utterly scenic. It’s fully enclosed, perfect for pets and children to play in.
Within the depths of the striking Limestone Valley, Matlock (4 miles) and Matlock Bath (3 miles) offer two of Derbyshire’s most popular tourist destinations. Home to handsome architecture, bustling high streets filled with independent businesses and even hydro and spa treatments in Matlock, both destinations offer plenty of local appeal. Similarly pretty, Wirksworth (4 miles) is a place to start a long, rewarding walk, making your way up to the unique rock formations of Harboro Rocks (5.5 miles) or the tranquil Carsington Water (5 miles).
