Get lost in the Peak District and feel like you're in your own little world at this fabulous farmhouse surrounded by verdant countryside and wildlife. Bring your loved ones to this spacious abode and make yourselves at home while it serves as a beautiful backdrop to the memories, you're sure to make. From relaxing gatherings to adrenaline-fuelled adventures, this contemporary farmhouse provides luxury self-catering escapes in the Peak District National Park. Unwrap your scarves, kick off your shoes and shake off the outside before you settle into this gorgeous space. Every room is decorated tastefully in a farmhouse style; rooted in rustic country charm and peppered with warm minimalism and industrial elements. The main lounge has mastered being both sophisticated and comfortable, with plush seating, a window reading nook, and a wood burner set in a stunning stone fireplace. The dining room is also practically designed to seat 20 with plenty of space around the large table. The kitchen is undoubtedly the most noteworthy room, and we imagine it's hosted many happy and lively times. Open and light, there is abundant space for preparing meals and lounging while someone else cooks on the Aga. A second, more casual living area adjoins the kitchen and is furnished with a pool table, TV and a comfy sofa for after-dinner fun and games. On the upper two floors are the seven tranquil bedrooms, four of which have en-suites. The family bathroom is fresh and contemporary, featuring a luxurious roll-top bath and stylish walk-in shower. Set in 18 acres, this really is an ideal place to disconnect from reality. Guests will love the hot tub, where you can make the most of a summer's day with countryside views or while away the evening under a canopy of stars. For something a little different, keep your party entertained with a few rounds of footgolf on the property's 3-acre course.

Carol
Great place for a relaxing family break. Hot tub was great. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped.
Simon
A beautiful cottage in a stunning location. The cottage was in the perfect location for being away from noise but close enough to a small town for amenities. On the doorstep of some lovely walks and more energetic things to do. Would absolutely come again.

David
Excellent for location Very lovely good peace and quiet Excellent for amenities
Isabel
We had an enjoyable stay here however there are things to keep in mind to make the most of your visit. Access to the cottage is very restricted, especially in a 4x4. We had to reverse in. The garden is not fully enclosed - disappointing as I was led to believe it was. The kitchen is well equipped but no starter pods or tablets are provided, not eveRead moren a cloth. Several items require maintenance which need to be addressed to make it safer and without any hazards. The gardens are beautiful. Hide
Joan
Excellent cottage and location. Garden ideal for the dogs to play in. We would hope to return again.
David
Beautifully appointed property, set in spacious, private gardens. The views are great and the garden was very secure for our dog. Best of all really peaceful- no neighbours! The kitchen is well equipped and the bathrooms are modern with copious hot water. The WIFI was good. Property is well placed to reach several local places of interest & Leek isRead more great for shopping/supermarkets. The owner is easy to contact and very responsive. Hide

Excellent area for exploring/walking in the Peak District.

Karen
The cottage is in an excellent location. Hot tub was well used. Had a great holiday. The 2 dogs enjoyed playing in the garden
Janet
This was our second time staying at the cottage and we had a lovely week. It's in a beautiful, quiet location and although the weather was cold during our stay, the cottage was very cosy and we all appreciated the hot jacuzzi (although not the cold dash back indoors!) The surrounding area has plenty of walking and good pubs. Something for everyone.

Lovely quaint cottage with lovely modern bathrooms. Quiet and peaceful location with lovely views but not too far away from Longnor, Buxton and Bakewell. Garden was amazing, well kept and the dog loved it. Hot tub was an added bonus.
Emma
Fantastic cottage in quiet location but with easy access to all the attractions in the area. Our dogs loved the large private garden and the hot tub got a lot of use after those long hill walks!
Tracy
What an amazing cottage, with a fantastic setting slap bang in the middle of the countryside, with beautifully kept large gardens and away from main roads. The house itself did not disappoint with its 3 double bedrooms and modern kitchen and bathrooms. Ideally located to lots of days out not more than 15-30 minutes away.

Lovely well maintained enclosed garden which our dogs loved.Ideally situated to some stunning walks and within east driving distance of Bakewell, Buxton, Ashbou rne etc. Would definitely return and highly recommend.

Cosy cottage with modern, well equipped kitchen and bathrooms whilst maintaining its character. Gardens are extensive and private. Spent evenings in the hot tub with amazing views.
Steph
Lovely place, would recommend and would stay again
Kara
We booked The Cottage for my mother in laws birthday, she has always wanted to stay in a picture perfect cottage in the country side and this property ticked every single box. It was clean, comfortable, cosy - especially with the wood burners on! Everything you may need has been thought of. Its in a very quiet location to relax and take in the incr edible views, but with pubs, supermarkets a not too far 15-20 min drive away. It was a wonderful weekend and The Cottage made it perfect.
Helen
Lovely cottage and location. Only downside was that the garden wasnt enclosed despite the description on Holiday Cottages.
Gary
Enjoyed our family time, celebrating younger daughters 30th. Great location with superb views and thoroughly enjoyed hot tub time late afternoon with a couple of great sunsets. What a treat! Beautiful cosy cottage, well equipped, great kitchen, with comfy beds and good showers. Visited Bakewell, Ashford in the Water, Buxton, Monsal Head and enjoyed walks in Longnor, Monsal Trail and two cycled (with dog in tow) along Tissington Trail. Thoroughly enjoyed our time and the cottage.
John
A lovely well appointed cottage in a convenient location for many enjoyable walks. The cottage was warm and comfortable, with a super garden that was safe for our dog. There were some lovely goodies awaiting us in the kitchen and the owners had clearly thought carefully about the needs of their guests, so we would highly recommend!
Graeme
Lovely house in the High Peak. Beautiful views from the garden and hot tub. Really well equipped and cosy with the woodburner in the living room (and dining room although we didn't use this one). Would definitely recommend for those wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle - lovely walks from the cottage. Sadly the only pub in Longnor is curr ently closed (Nov '22).
Marie
The perfect cosy cottage. Really well equipped. Owner is great at communicating. Hot tub a lovely perk!
Karen
A fabulous cottage in a beautiful, quiet location. Very well equipped, clean, with extremely comfortable beds. Plenty of space for your for legged friend to run around in the beautifully kept gardens.
Amy
The cottage is beautiful and in a lovely location. We would certainly stay again. Very much enjoyed using the hot tub too in the peacful garden.
Jacqueline
This is a lovely cottage beautiful location with everything you need, comfortable beds. Would definitely recommend
Allison
We have had a lovely stay. Our 2 year working cocker spaniel loved the cottage and the garden. The owners have done a great job with making the cottage so 'cottage cosy' with some welcome modern features & high end decor - but keeping the real charm of the cottage. Pictures on this site - do not do justice. Stunning views. For us the location lacke d good walks from the door as the foot path signs did not go anywhere! Access to the cottage is a single track with no passing places.
Gillian
Beautiful cottage , perfect location. With lots to see and do . Cottage was clean and cozy . Lovely bathrooms all very clean and modern . We loved it and hope to return .
Melanie
What can I say, we didnt want to leave! The location is what sets this place apart from the rest and the views on the photos dont do it justice. The gardens are beautiful and extremely well kept. The cottage is completely private with a huge front garden where the children played badminton and rode their bikes up and down the drive. The hot tub was something else with breathtaking views. Wonderful appliances, fixtures and fittings inside too. We loved it and hope to return. Thank you
Anne
Lovely secluded cottage. The gardens are extensive and hot tub a luxury. The road down to the cottage is single track with no passing places, we had to reverse back down it a couple of times to let other cars through. Well equipped for self-catering. We had a lovely stay and our grandchildren and German shepherd thoroughly enjoyed the garden. We lo ved the peace and quiet.
