Ref: 809 Hillside View Cottage   
WINSTER Bakewell 6 miles; Matlock 6 miles. The conservation village of Winster is situated within the Peak District National Park and is an extremely pretty place with a charming 17th Century market house at its centre and other imposing 18th Century houses, nearly all three storeys, on its three main streets - Main Street, East Bank and West Bank. Less dignified, but no less endearing, are the little alleyways or 'ginnels' off Main Street which are well worth exploring. The village is famous for its Morris dancers, Wakes festivities (every June) and its annual Shrove Tuesday pancake race - a fascinating spectacle! Within the village there is a well stocked grocer's shop, a Post Office/Gift Shop and two pubs - both serving food and local traditional beers. Bakewell, Chatsworth and Matlock are all nearby and, for keen walkers, the village lies within 5 miles of the Tissington and High Peaks walking/cycling trails and The Limestone Way.

Mr Simpson, Godalming, Surrey
May 2007 | A cosy cottage. Very well equipped kitchen. Village with all the essentials - shop and pub - playground for kids. Lots of useful info provided in the cottage. Heating works very well - essential despite the fact we were there in April! Master bedroom especially nice with windows on two sides - very light and airy.
Mrs Stephenson, Thise,

Mar 2007 | Lovely cosy cottage, just what you want for a walking break. Fire lovely, pubs near by good value. Central location for the Peaks and the area we wanted to walk in. We would go back there.
Mrs Halliwell, Stevenage, Hertfordshire
Feb 2007 | A beautiful cottage in a charming village. Plenty of walks. We would definitely go back.
Miss Morison, Nottingham,
Jan 2007 | Winster was an especially sleepy village with a calm and peaceful atmosphere. It was great that there was no mobile phone signal - so it was a 'real' break! We just wished we could have stayed longer.
Mr Potts, , Manchester
Nov 2006 | A very comfortable, clean and relaxing cottage, ideal for a short break and as a start for walks. The log burner makes the holiday special!
Miss Packham, Sheffield, South Yorkshire
Oct 2006 | Everything was lovely and I would love to return to this particular cottage again in the future. The location was very central to a lot of attractions as well as good walks, so we did not need to travel far in any direction to see beautiful parts of the Peak District. It was very peaceful and the balcony was a definite bonus to the cottage. It was very clean, comfortable and well located for local amenities. The Old Bowling Green pub offered excellent food and hospitality. Although the parking was not directly outside the cottage, we had no problem parking in the main street. It was very good to read other people's comments in the visitor's book as it gave recommendations of places to go etc. An excellent all round holiday.
