Property code: OC-P34199

Lead the way to an unforgettable holiday in the peaceful scenery of rural Derbyshire. This inviting escape is an idyllic retreat for two humans and a pair of hounds, with touches of luxury throughout and a huge garden for relaxing in the sunshine.

Hang leads in the handy boot room and stroll into the single-storey cottage. Its unusual layout features a large, open-plan space with areas for relaxing, dining and sleeping – including plenty of room for pet beds and bowls. With a stone floor, vaulted ceiling and skylights, the room feels very airy and spacious, with the warmth of the wood burner creating a homely atmosphere. The lounge area has a choice of soft seating and a Smart TV, and there’s a sturdy dining table with space for four people to enjoy delicious meals. At bedtime, you won’t have to go far to relax in the handsome four-poster bed before you drift off to sleep. The compact kitchen is separate, equipped with an oven, hob, microwave and fridge/freezer for quick and easy cooking – plus a very useful dishwasher. Finally, the handsome bathroom is just as stylish as the rest of this impressive interior. French doors open to a tranquil, half-acre garden filled with mature planting and boasting a small stream. The garden is fully enclosed, so you can relax on the patio or in the hot tub as your canine companion enjoys the fresh air. Another benefit of this appealing retreat is private parking for two cars.

Just 1 mile from the cottage is charming Tansley Knoll, where there’s a pub/restaurant that welcomes dogs in its lounge and outside areas. As well as exploring the fabulous variety of walks in the Peak District National Park, you could wander through the beautiful garden and park at historic Chatsworth House, 10.5 miles away.

The Potting Shed is a pure touch of luxury and comfort. Words can not really express how lovely this place is. Everything had been considered in making out stay as comfortable as possible. Clean, luxurious, an amazing garden, hands down well done for making a little haven of 'lovely'.

The potting shed was a very clean and well looked after little treat. The gardens are beautifully maintained and the location was perfect for myself and wife to explore the beautiful surrounding areas. Jacqui and Peter were excellent hosts and kept me informed and even treated us to some local produce. Would recommend highly

Well equiped and comfortable. Very generous hospitality. Extremely clean and lovely outside space with an amazing hot tub. Busy main road beside the property was the only downside.

What a wonderful find The Potting Shed has been! Initial contact from the owner a few days before arrival was welcoming and personal. We were greeted and shown the cottage - a really beautiful place. There was everything we could need, with special touches for us throughoutand not forgetting our dog. Very clean and beautifully maintained, a lovelyRead more garden and the hot tub was covered for those wet days with lovely lighting. The owners were available if needed but it felt very private. Well definitely be back and have already recommended it to friends. Thank you so much! Hide

The property is amazing. The photos are impressive but to see the Potting shed with your own eyes is even better. The attention to detail throughout every aspect of the building and its contents is fantastic. The grounds with the stream running through is the perfect place to sit and relax. We will definitely be booking again soon. Jacqui anRead mored Peter are so welcoming and friendly. Hide
