For those who want a romantic country break but can’t bear to leave their beloved hound at home, this canine-friendly cottage is the ideal solution. Situated just 4.5 miles from the staggering Peak District, unforgettable walkies and scenery to die for will no doubt impress both man and dog. Perfect for a cosy couple and their furry third-wheel, this delightful property sleeps two guests and one dog.

A pretty stone house on a quiet village road, this country cottage has been renovated to strike the perfect balance between original charm and contemporary style. The open-plan living space combines lounge, dining room and kitchen and offers more than enough space for the three of you to unwind. Spend the evening relaxing in front of the Smart TV with your pup curled up alongside you, the room being warmed throughout by an electric wood burner. A romantic dinner can be enjoyed at the cosy dining table, or outdoors on the first-floor balcony where you can observe the bustling village beneath you.

Whilst lacking in a private garden, the vast countryside that surrounds you ensures your top dog will have plenty of space to run off some steam. Visit the Carsington Water reservoir just 2 miles away, where a circular 13.5-mile walk will certainly set tails wagging. The brink of the Peak District National Park can be found just 4.5 miles away and offers an abundance of rabbits to chase and sticks to fetch. Many dog-loving day-trippers visit the area to walk The Limestone Way, a path which begins 28 miles away in Castleton and ends 13 miles away in Rocester, perfect for tackling over a week or conquering in one fell swoop.

Cottage is very well laid out with two comfy sofas, a well equipped kitchen and a big screen smart TV for evenings in. Upstairs, the bed is huge and there is an en-suite bathroom. There is a pub one side which serves a wonderful Sunday lunch and an C.11th Church on the other. The village is very quiet and there are no end of walks available withoutRead more having to use the car. Hide

Lovely comfortable cottage in a very quiet village next to a 17th Century Inn. What more could you want! It is possible to walk through the woods to Carsington Reservoir about a 30 min walk or you can drive there in 5mins. We hope to return soon.

The cottage was very adequate for our needs as we ate out most nights. We cannot walk in the way we used to so all journeys were made by car which was adequately housed in the area outside the cottage.
