Lying in a secluded spot on a working farm, this sympathetically updated former cart house has been lovingly converted to make a characterful holiday cottage for couples eager to discover the serene countryside of the Peak District. Offering cosy accommodation for up to two guests, the property also has ample space for a four-legged friend to come along and explore the tranquil valley. Situated near the owner's home at the end of a long and well-maintained farm track, this stylishly updated 19th-century holiday home has a range of original features including stone tiling, exposed brickwork, and timber beams.

Stepping into this fresh and inviting cottage, the cosy lounge has plenty of seating and beautiful stone walls, with light streaming in through the patio doors. Exploring the ground floor further, you will find an airy, elegantly arranged, fully equipped kitchen/diner perfect for preparing and sharing romantic meals together. The characterful staircase leads up into the cheery and atmospheric super-king-size bedroom with stunning exposed stone walls, wooden beams and a stylish en-suite shower room. Outside, the pretty back garden is fully enclosed and overlooks the sheep grazing in the surrounding fields, providing a relaxing spot for you and your canine friend to settle back and unwind after a wonderful day exploring a memorable part of the Peak District.

The cottage sits in a secluded spot along the western edge of the glorious Peak District National Park, offering miles of spellbinding walks for your pet to lead you along. Popular local destinations include The Roaches, Black Mere Mermaid Pool and Tittesworth Reservoir, all within 8 miles. To the south, the historic town of Leek (6 miles) has some great places to eat and drink. To the west, you and your pet can enjoy an idyllic stroll around the tranquil Rudyard Lake (6 miles).

Greenhouse cottage was lovely, great location and being able to head out for great walks without needing to get in the car a huge positive. The provisions within the cottage meant we had everything we needed, games, cooking facilities, a lovely garden! The cottage was very peaceful even though its on a working farm!

The cottage was easy to find and absolutely spotless, all the cooking and entertainment facilities you'll need are there. The owners are very pleasant and helpful but you are left to come and go as you please. The location is on a working farm and about 2 miles from Meerbrook village, Leek is about 7 miles away and takes about 15-20 minutes. We didRead more many walks during our stay and there are many options on your doorstep, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will look at booking again soon. Hide

Absolutely lovely cottage - perfect for two and our little cocker spaniel. It was so lovely to come back from being out during the day and sit in the garden with a glass of something looking at the beautiful view - so quiet and peaceful.

Lovely location within easy walk to The Roaches, Luds Church, and wider peak district sights. Short walk to the fabulous Lazy Trout pub for excellent food and beer choice.

We loved out time at the cottage. The hosts were friendly & welcoming (even lending us hiking sticks!) and the cottage was perfect sized for me, my wife & our mini schnauzer. It's tucked away so perfect for getting away from it all, and a great place to come back to after a day of adventures. The Lazy Trout isn't too far (by car at least!) and it'sRead more a perfect country pub. Would highly recommend a stay at the cottage. Hide

Lovely cottage with everything we needed - even a 'baby gate' to keep our dog downstairs. Not every dog property gives this option, so we were very pleased.

We had a lovely stay at the Greenhouse Cottage. Gordon and Zendar were very friendly hosts and gave us lots of ideas of places to visit, walks and eating places. From the cottage we did a 5-6 mile circular walk to Lud's Church and the Roaches, this had lovely views from the top of the Roaches. We visited the Lazy Trout in Meerbrook twice, the food Read moreis very good and the staff are friendly and efficient. We walked there along the country roads which are very quiet. Hide

Lovely stay in this cosy cottage. Everything worked well and good instruction sheets. Tea bags milk and biscuits very welcome on arrival. Our dog enjoyed the outside space. We enjoyed the little shelter - good for reading and pre-dinner drinks. Beautiful scenery all around.
