This is an Idyllic holiday home tucked away within the picture-postcard village of Ashford-in-the-Water, with elegant interiors and a cosy wood burner. Sleeping four guests and two canine friends, this charming bolthole has all you need for a relaxing stay in the Peak District, with a pub, tearoom and village shop just opposite for your convenience.
Beneath the timeless charm of this gorgeous village property is a haven of homely comforts, a crackling wood burner and tastefully designed rooms. Find yourselves making a fresh pot of tea in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, and perch up on the bar seating with the maps sprawled out in front of you. The soft green tones continue through into the cosy lounge, where you’ll be met with soft seating and the urge to get stuck into the latest bestseller. On sunny evenings, choose from two distinct outdoor spaces: the first is a pretty enclosed garden to watch the world go by, while the shared courtyard is to the rear, with another table and chairs to enjoy alfresco suppers. Pull on your supplied luxurious dressing gowns and hunker down for the night, and when it’s time to turn in, climb into one of two sumptuous king-size beds.
The delightfully charming village of Ashford-in-the-Water is ideally located for exploring the nooks and crannies of the Peak District. A friendly pub, tearoom and village shop sit practically outside the front door, or venture over to the golden-stone streets, independent shops and welcoming cafés or Bakewell (5 miles). The rolling surroundings provide endless waymarked walking routes, including the Monsal Trail and the Tissington Trail, which can be joined from the village. Other landmarks that are a must-see are Chatsworth House (5.5 miles) and Haddon Hall (5 miles).
