This pretty cottage is perfect for families and friends who want a relaxing break in a sleepy village with the most delightful surrounding countryside just waiting to be explored.

Escape to Derbyshire’s Golden Triangle for a break away from the hustle and bustle. Sleeping four over two bedrooms, bring your beloved pups along to sniff out new scents and explore new walk destinations before settling down for a relaxing night in this pretty abode. Once a pumphouse, the exterior of the property boasts handfuls of charm with a curved wall and striking red brick which entice you inside and into the garden where you can enjoy outdoor tit bits and treats.

On arrival, make the lounge your first pitstop so you can unwind after your journey and settle down together for a cup of tea and a gulp of water. The feature brick fireplace houses a wood burner effect electric fire so tails and toes are kept toasty throughout your stay and characterful exposed beams line the ceiling. Take a seat on the sofas or sprawl out on the floor and turn on the TV/DVD. The simple, country style continues into the kitchen where you will find all you need to feed guests with both two and four legs and a handy washer/dryer. Dine together at the table or head outside to the garden where pups can stretch their legs. Upstairs, the pair of bedrooms are treated to lovely views and share the shower room. There is off-road parking for two cars.

For a family-friendly day out, travel north into the Peak District where dogs on leads are welcome to roam the grounds at Chatsworth House and Gardens. Explore the spectacular Peak District further and tread the Dovedale Walk from Ilam (13.5 miles), The Roaches to Lud’s Church (20 miles) or the Monsal Trail walk from Bakewell (26 miles). A 9.5-mile trip takes you to the pretty market town of Ashbourne where you can whet your appetite or pick up fresh ingredients.

A lovely cosy, dog friendly cottage ideally situated for easy access to the Derbyshire Dales. Good walks from the door and plenty of great places to eat all within a few minutes drive. The cottage had a secure enclosed garden for the dogs and was finished to a high standard. The owner kept us well informed prior to arrival was very quick to respondRead more to any messages. The wine etc was very welcome upon our arrival and we would definitely return Hide

A dog focused review, but would be a lovely base for anyone! Pretty little cottage with comfortable bedrooms and a practical downstairs (all hard floors, and a stairgate to stop dogs/kids running out of front door or going upstairs) Fairly well enclosed garden with flat lawn and powerful outside light for watching dogs on last thing before bed peesRead more! Fabulous walks in the surrounding area, including some from the door, places of interest and friendly pubs and locals - very happy to recommend! Hide

A lovely, well equipped cottage. Very dog friendly - dog towels, bowl and treats provided and downstairs floors tiled so no need to worry about wet paws! Only criticism is that the stair gate was on the lounge door and not on the bottom of the stairs so we had to steer the dogs in through the front door so they didnt go upstairs. Very comfortable bRead moreed and lovely shower. Location is a bit remote but a good base for exploring. Hide

The cottage is very well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. The location was ideal for us as this was mainly a walking holiday with our dog. The owners were very accommodating and communicated very quickly. There is ample parking space unlike some cottages. I would definitely recommend this cottage and we will be returning to it.

The garden is enclosed anRead mored safe for toddlers and dogs so peace of mind for us to relax . Nice walks nearby . Thanks Carol much appreciated x Hide
