Take the lead and book a perfect break in this handsome stone cottage on the edge of the Peak District National Park. Friends, families and four-pawed pals will be spoilt for choice when it comes to scenic walks and exhilarating hikes, followed by relaxing evenings in the enclosed garden or in front of the wood burner.
Step straight in to the spacious dining area, which has an ornamental period fireplace as a focal point, and a long table to seat everyone for celebratory meals. From here, there’s one step down to the light-filled lounge, an inviting spot to gather beside the wood burner for a sociable evening of listening to music, reading or enjoying a show on the Smart TV. The spacious kitchen includes everything necessary to whip up tasty holiday repasts, including a dishwasher for quick clean-ups. It boasts a breakfast table for four and has plenty of floor space for a pet bed and bowls. Upstairs, three pretty bedrooms, decorated in soft colours, provide peaceful retreats. Do note that one of the doubles has one side of the bed against the wall. An elegant bathroom, with a free-standing bath and separate shower, completes the interior. When you want to relax outside or dine in the fresh air, head to the patio and enjoy the sunshine as your furry friends play safely. You’ll have private parking for three cars.
The property is located in Kniveton, just metres from a dog-friendly pub and surrounded by footpaths through fields and hills. Try the Limestone Way, which passes through the village, or head to Tissington, 6 miles, for the Tissington Trail. Carsington Water, 2.5 miles, offers several walks, including a 7.5-mile loop through wildflower meadows and woodland.
