Throw a ball for Bella on the large, sloping lawn or take her off to explore the owner’s nearby woodland when you stay at this cottage on a working Derbyshire farm. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom, dog-friendly retreat is situated just inside the Peak District and makes a perfect base for anyone with a pup in tow. For the people in your party, there’s a luxurious hot tub to soak in under the stars.
Pull yourself and your pup away from your spectacular surroundings to enter this delightful abode, which has underfloor heating. Wander through it to admire its honey-coloured wooden floors and exposed stonework and beams. Bring Bella through to the kitchen to feed her and top up her water bowl. Set dinner for everyone else bubbling on the hob before following her down one step into the spacious, open-plan lounge/diner. Let her pad about while you light the wood burner and settle down in front of the TV. Enjoy your own dinner at the table later on. Leave her dozing downstairs when it’s time to make your way up to bed on the first floor. Here, you will find a king-size bedroom and a super-king-size, with zip-and-link beds that can also be made up as a twin by prior agreement. The family bathroom is also up here. Take Bella outside for a morning run on the lawn before heading off to explore Derbyshire for the day. Return on fine evenings to bubble in the hot tub and enjoy the views with your favourite furry friend close by. There is parking here for two cars.
Take Bella for an exciting hike along the scenic Manifold Way, from Weag’s Bridge, 6.5 miles away. Tittesworth Water, 4 miles away, has a dog-friendly walking route that will also set her tail wagging.
