Property code: 90126

What better place to take your significant other and up to two VIPs (very important pups) than the walkies wonder that is the Peak District? Do just that at this beautiful one-bed property in a converted barn on a small complex of holiday cottages in popular Hartington village. Relax at home amid the stylish interiors, swap holiday tips with your neighbours in the courtyard or settle a few scores in the shared on-site games room. With the Peak District National Park on your doorstep and many fine walks starting from the village, it’s the perfect place for any outward-bound couple to re-energise.

Stepping into the cottage, you enter the cosy lounge which has a wood burner-effect electric fire, a Smart TV and comfortable sofa seating to relax. Head upstairs to find the kitchen/diner which is small but perfectly formed, with a table for two. It makes a great spot to plan your day’s activities with modern wood flooring echoing the more ancient timbers of the overhead beams. The calming double bedroom and an en-suite bathroom complete the upstairs. Outside, the cottage offers a shared courtyard with seating and a BBQ, which is quite simply a perfect spot for humans and canines alike.

An ideal spot for keen walkers and cyclists, it would also suit any couple looking to just take some time out and chill – with sought-after Hartington punching above its weight when it comes to the amenities offered. The walk from Hartington down Beresford and Wolfscote Dales, alongside the River Dove and onto Dovedale, is rightly considered to be one of the finest in the area. An extremely scenic bus service passes through here and onto other local villages, enabling keen walkers to catch a bus out and walk back to the cottage.

A lovely little cottage that met our needs for our short break for ourselves and sprocker. Very close to the Devonshire Arms and good meals and friendly staff. Advisable to book and check last serving times for food. A central location for some of the trails and Bakewell. The cheese shop was great.

Delighful wee cottage, perfect for 2 (+dog :-) ). Clean, comfortable and well cared-for. Couldn't fault it and we will probably stay again. Hartington is a pretty wee village, 2 pubs and 2 foodie shops, not too 'touristy'. Couple of notes: Parking is fine but can be a bit tricky when both spaces in the courtyard are occuoied, always reverse park ifRead more you can The emails giving directions give only directions from your expected origin, it would be better if they included both N & S Hide

It is in a good location for local accessing local walks straight from the door. We found the property looking very tired and needing a deep clean and update. In our opinion there are several things that are not up to standard, eg. broken cooker hood, basin tap in bathroom not secure, mattress very uncomfortable ( thin and lumpy), lack homely featuRead moreres no curtains and the outside area looks very unloved. The only highlight was the slow cooker. Hide

Lovely cottage, ideal size and location for 2 adults and dog. All the kitchen equipment worked perfectly and the bathroom looks brand new, lovely hot shower. Hartington itself is a perfect base for exploring the peaks and the village itself has plenty of shops for buying supplies. Great food in the next door pub. Would recommend the River Dove walkRead more (circular route starts/ends in Hartington). Hide
