About this property

This rural escape is perfect for couples looking for a peaceful Peak District getaway, with picturesque dog friendly walks on the doorstep and lots of popular amenities within easy reach.

The nearby village of Curbar offers a traditional country pub, as well as a cafe, a supermarket, an art gallery, and a craft shop. Spreading across the floor of the Derwent Valley, the village is surrounded by stunning scenery and walking routes, including gritstone edges, heather clad moorland, grassy heights, and limestone outcrops. There are off road walks that lead directly onto Froggatt (1 mile) and Curbar Edge (1.5 miles) from the village, plus the National Trust owned Longshaw Estate (4 miles) is close by. The magnificent Chatsworth House Estate, villages of Baslow, Eyam, and Bakewell, the ancient capital of the Peak", are all within five miles, making this cottage the perfect romantic retreat at any time of year!

Notice the vast vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, tiled floor, and floor to ceiling windows that let the light flood in.
