Nestled in the heart of Flash – England’s highest village at 1,518 feet above sea level – this warm and welcoming cottage offers a peaceful escape surrounded by sweeping moorland views. Inside, the cottage is full of character and comfort, with a warming wood burner for cosy evenings for you and a group of friends or family.
A welcoming porch provides a practical space for boots and coats after a day of discovery. To one side, the lounge invites you to unwind with soft seating, calming tones and a wood burner that adds a warm glow on cooler evenings. On the other side of the hallway, the spacious kitchen and dining area is a lovely setting to cook and gather, with a large table at the heart of the room. A handy downstairs bathroom and utility room make this an excellent choice for walkers, cyclists and those travelling with dogs. From the utility area, a short staircase leads to a private annexe double bedroom. Upstairs in the main cottage, you'll find a king-size bedroom, a double and a twin, all sharing a modern family shower room. Outside, a patio seating area provides a lovely spot to enjoy fresh air and far-reaching views, while a hot and cold outdoor tap makes light work of muddy boots and paws after countryside adventures. On-street parking is available to the front, so you can come and go with ease.
The village itself exudes timeless rural charm, with quiet lanes, stone buildings and traditional farmsteads dotting the hillsides. You'll find wonderful walking routes right from the doorstep, including the scenic Flash to Three Shires Head trail, where waterfalls cascade beneath historic stone bridges at the meeting point of three counties. The striking landscapes of The Roaches, Ramshaw Rocks and Lud's Church are close by for unforgettable days out, while the spa town of Buxton is 6 miles away. For those keen to explore further, Bakewell, Haddon Hall, and Chatsworth House are all within 15 miles.
