Property code: 62803

City-dwelling families and outdoorsy couples will fall in love with this traditional country cottage, which offers you a true rural retreat at the base of the Peak District National Park. The property either sleeps four friends or a couple and two younger ones, and your beloved dog will adore the miles and miles of surrounding greenery.

This uniquely upside-down property has an open-plan living/dining/kitchen area on the first floor – the compact space puts everything at your fingertips and enables quality family time throughout your stay. With a comfortable space to relax and catch up on the TV, you’ll no doubt find an exhausted dog curled up at your feet. Downstairs, the bedrooms continue the traditional interior and make cosy spaces to recharge for the day ahead. The courtyard is an open space with outdoor seating for al fresco dining on sunnier days.

Your canine companion will adore the neighbouring fields, and the kids will rave about staying in a working farm area. Surrounded by both wildlife and animals, the local farmers will welcome curious minds who’d love to see a cow or sheep up close – but perhaps keep the dog on a lead for this one! Located in the Peak District National Park, you’ll find walking and hiking routes of various levels of expertise on your doorstep with plenty of dog and kid-friendly pubs along the way. Fancy a short journey in the car? The Derbyshire town of Buxton is only 13 miles north of the property and, amongst other attractions, you’ll find the glorious Grade II-listed building of The Pavilion Gardens, where you can walk your dog around the historic parkland landscape and stunning floral displays.

Absolutely beautiful cottage, with all you could need. Located in an idyllic location, with spectacular views. The owner, his family and dog were very friendly and accommodating. I will highly recommend this cottage and pretty village. Most places you would want to visit are around 20-30mins drive, so perfect location.

We loved our stay at the cottage. The location is great for seeing all of the peak district with some wonderful walks right from the door. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable for us as a family of 4 with 2 small children. We would definitely stay again

Beautiful secluded location. Really experienced the Peak District here. Narrow, stoned walled roads up to the cottage with spectacular views at the top. The sun sets at the front of the cottages, set on a working farm so plenty of country sounds and views. Cosy, clean and well equipped cottage. Couldnt fault the service, had a personal tour of the Read morefarm which was really interesting and informative. Walk down to the river was beautiful, just not ideal for anyone with mobility restrictions or pram Hide
