This glorious barn conversion, with enclosed garden and direct access to a secure field, is perfect for your whole family – including the four-legged ones. Within easy walking distance of the chocolate-box village of Ashford in the Water, this three-bedroom, three-bathroom property offers spacious accommodation in a stunning countryside setting. Play Poohsticks at the famous Sheepwash Bridge or head to one of the village’s dog-friendly pubs or cafes to enjoy a tasty treat.

The open-plan living space of the property means you can enjoy the company of your canine companions wherever you are in the cottage. Bring their favourite blanket to lay out in front of the wood burner, letting them sprawl before its gentle warmth as you rest your paws in the snuggly sofas. A single bedroom with en-suite shower room makes this property accessible for all. Upstairs is a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and a further twin bedroom and separate family bathroom. Outside, guests of all ages and species will enjoy the pretty courtyard garden where you can dine alfresco as the sun sets over the hills. The neighbouring field is ideal for hounds to stretch their legs in when they need a bit of exercise close to home.

Within walking distance of your cottage, the pretty village of Ashford in the Water has a choice of dog-friendly eateries and independent shops for you to browse. Stroll alongside the river at Bakewell (2 miles) or pause in one of the courtyard cafes to sample a slice of the famous pudding. Take the lead and visit the taproom at the riverside brewery to sample locally-produced craft beers.

The cottage was lovely, well equipped and well presented. There were lots of useful items in the kitchen. I think the only thing missing was a salad spinner

The pillow cases in the main bedroom were extremely dirty and should have been changed long ago.

We had a great stay at this property which is ideally located for lots of lovely walks and visits to nice towns on those wet weather days. There were two good pubs nearby and we ate at both and really enjoyed both meals. The property itself was really well equipped, great shower over bath in the upstairs bathrooms and ground floor walk in shower. TRead morehere was a nice outside seating area - unfortunately the weather didnt play ball the week we visited so we only managed to sit out once! Hide
