Relax and unwind in this picture-perfect stone cottage located in the heart of the Peak District National Park. A perfect retreat for you and your furry companion, this property sleeps two and welcomes one pooch. Despite being surrounded by countryside, perfect for scampering and fetching sticks, this home-from-home has all the amenities on its doorstep; meaning no one will miss out on any treats.

The bijou, stone-built property embraces modern times but nods to its past by keeping original features such as the staircase. It leads you to a charming bedroom, exuding tranquility and calm, with the modern bathroom adjacent. Downstairs, rest those tired legs on the comfy sofa in the open-plan living area, whilst Fido sprawls out in front of the wood burner and dreams of tomorrow’s walks. Cook up a delicious meal for two in the kitchen/diner and sit around the table and toast to the day’s adventures.

Have a day out in the pretty market town of Bakewell (4 miles) or for a day of culture, explore the dog-friendly gardens of Chatsworth House (5.5 miles). Or stretch Rover’s legs on the endless walks in the area, including the Monsal Trail (2 miles), with its tunnels and viaducts that meander through over 8 miles of the most spectacular limestone dales. After all that hard work, enjoy a drink and mingle with the locals at the dog-friendly pub or sample the area’s treats at the tearoom, also welcoming pooches, both less than 50 metres from your doorstep.

Cottage is in a great location and reasonably priced for the time of year. It is very comfortable with a good shower. We felt the kitchen was a little under equipped and could have done with more guidance in terms of recycling etc Storage was excellent and the cottage was warm enough. Overall, it was a great place to stay in an amazing location.

Cottage is located in a idyllic setting with great access to local attractions such as Bakewell, Monsal Trail and other local attractions. Lovely welcoming pub and coffee shop within a one minute walk from the cottage. The cottage has all you could want from a short break, there were two of us and our dog and we had ample space for what we wanted.
