Create unforgettable memories within this fine period residence set with this peaceful village of Middle Mayfield. An ideal gathering place for relaxation, celebrations or country pursuits.
Step back into the 16th Century with this Grade II* Tudor-era hall in the southern reaches of the picturesque Peak District. Sleeping 10, it is the perfect venue for celebrating special occasions with family, friends and canine companions, with its imposing exterior and careful blend of period grandeur and contemporary style. Spend your days rambling through rich pastures and riverside meadows or touring the grounds of local historic houses before returning to your own historic house where pooches can potter in the generous lawn garden while owners indulge in a delicious BBQ feast.
Oozing with period charm, this stone-built residence has been tastefully modernised for 21st family life. Prepare family feasts in the stunning bespoke kitchen, with its stylish pendant lighting and central breakfast table for light meals and snacks. The grand dining room sets the scene for memorable mealtimes, with its large table to seat 10, Jacobean paneled walls, wood burner and small hidden reading nook. When it’s time to relax, sink into one of the cosy leather sofas in the drawing room, which sit beneath an opulently decorated ceiling. Or step through to the parlour for a game of backgammon beside the spectacular inglenook fireplace with wood burner. Leaving the dogs to snooze on one of the cosy rugs, make your way up one of the two staircases to the five beautifully decorated bedrooms, or indulge in a long soak in the freestanding bath. Outside, find plenty of space for grownups, children and pooches to play, dine and relax together.
Lying on the Staffordshire and Derbyshire border, the village of Middle Mayfield is surrounded by beautiful countryside with rich pastures, riverside meadows and ancient tracks - perfect for dog walks.
