Overview
Property code: PK927

Discover the Derbyshire countryside and the nearby Peak District with a stay in beautiful Hognaston, a chocolate-box village just a stone’s throw from Carsington Water. The ideal base for two travelling together, this property has been lovingly presented to provide a romantic bolthole for a hiker’s retreat. Enjoy long days out and about in the rugged moorlands and historic woodlands or take trips to the nearby National Park destinations dotted around, all with the allure of an ever-comfortable super-king-size bed waiting for you at the end of each day.

This recently renovated cottage boasts a contemporary style which will leave you feeling instantly at home, paired with character-filled features including original beams and sloped ceilings. Despite its compact size, the entire space has been designed perfectly for two guests in mind. On the ground floor, you’ll find a lovely lounge with a wood burner-effect electric fire and a Smart TV, ideal for cosy nights in. Head on upstairs to discover a bright and cheerful bedroom with a sumptuous bed and super-soft sheets, an unbeatable place to catch forty winks. Wake up each and every day to enjoy your private terrace from the first floor, watching village life pass by from the handy bistro set.

Just off Carsington Water (1.5 miles), Hognaston is a village with plenty of outdoor activities on hand close by. Experience wild water sports or more laidback fishing days on the reservoir, or perhaps simply enjoy a walk on its banks. Located just 3 miles from the Peak District National Park, the property is also a great destination for hikers and bikers. A popular walk for visitors is the Limestone Way, a 46-mile route which crosses over some of the Peak District’s most stunning landscapes.

What a beautiful, comfortable, well equipped cottage. We had a fabulous stay, enjoying the local sights and having some down time. If you like peace and quiet, cosy surroundings and dark, starry nights, Bag End is the perfect choice.

Lovely little cottage. Great walks from the door, especially down to the reservoir. The bed was firm - fine for us but if you like a soft bed, you might struggle. Theres no phone signal but the WiFi is decent. The pub next door does good food and is really handy. Great location to explore the Peak District. The only downside for us is dogs arent alRead morelowed on sofas (or upstairs) (floor is stone flags) which is the only reason we probably wouldnt return or recommend to our dog owner friends. Hide

Very well designed makes very good use of a small house. Red Lion next door serves excellent meals. Booking is recommended. Easy walk over the fields to Carsington Water. The visitors centre has a pleasant restaurant The 110 bus stops in the village by the Church and also at a bus shelter further down the road. Check the timetable on line though.
