Tucked into the peaceful village of Earl Sterndale, this cosy cottage is a welcoming retreat for two, surrounded by the spectacular landscapes of the Peak District. One of three converted farm buildings on-site, the cottage comes complete with a private patio from which to soak up the scenery.

Inside, the cottage has a bright open-plan interior with the lounge, kitchen and dining area arranged together. Settle onto the soft seating with the Smart TV after a day on the trails, or sit around the circular dining table for a meal. The well-equipped kitchen has plenty of storage and worktop space, making it easy to prepare breakfast before heading out or dinner when you return. A stylishly tiled shower room leads through to the cosy bedroom, where exposed wooden beams and a comfortable double bed create a characterful place to settle down for the night. Outside, a private patio with seating looks across the surrounding greenery and makes a lovely spot for morning coffee. Private parking for two cars is available, while an adjacent shared laundry room houses a washing machine and tumble dryer.

Walkers can head out along the Dragon’s Back to Parkhouse Hill and Chrome Hill, around 2 miles away, while Buxton, 5 miles north, brings independent shops, pubs, restaurants and attractions including Buxton Opera House, Poole’s Cavern and Pavilion Gardens. Bakewell (9.5 miles) is a must for anyone with a sweet tooth, while Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are 13.5 and 11 miles respectively. Closer still, Lathkill Dale, Magpie Mine and Blake Mere Mermaid Pool are all within 7 miles, giving you more options for days in the Derbyshire countryside.

Lovely property. Clean, tidy and tastefully decorated. Looked recently renovated. Nice to be on one level although do be mindful that someone may be in the property above. Stunning view and lovely to watch the sunset. Great location for the Peak District.

Lovely cottage with a great view, quite small, but everything is really tidy clean and organised, good location to start some decent walks. Great information in the cottage and good extras such as the laundrette and local crisps on arrival!
