Chatsworth 1 mile; Bakewell 5 miles.
The pretty village of Baslow lies at the north end of stately Chatsworth House - home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire. The village has many unusual and picturesque features including a triple-arched river bridge guarded by a toll house whose doorway is only 3 1/2 feet high! Baslow offers a range of village amenities including shops, pubs and restaurants. Close by is Bakewell, the capital of the Peak District, and home of the famous Bakewell pudding (definitely not tart!), still made locally to an old and secret recipe. Bakewell is at the scenic heart of the Peak District, and with Alton Towers also within easy touring distance, there is plenty for the whole family to enjoy.

Derbyshire Cottages
Froghall 0.5 miles. A group of individual holiday properties situated in a wonderful rural setting at Froghall Wharf in the delightful Churnet Valley. The properties overlook the Caldon Canal, with its newly restored lock and basin moorings, and lie within 30 acres of grounds which include a private fishing lake, woodland, meadows and a small stream. A paradise for nature lovers - if you are lucky you will see kingfishers, herons, buzzards and deer - and the wild flowers are beautiful in the spring and early summer. There are dozens of walks in the area, including those along the canal towpath. The cottages are all recently built but in traditional canalside style with archways leading to a central courtyard. The accommodation has been equipped, furnished and decorated to a very high standard and they make a superb location for an "away from it all" type holiday at any time of the year. They can be booked together to accommodate larger family groups of up to 20. The owners also live on site with their family and friendly pets. They have a good knowledge of the local area and will be pleased to share this information with you, to ensure you have an enjoyable and memorable stay.
