  • "The property was lovely, cosy, and warm."

    Could have done with a couple more towels as you have to shower before and after using the hot tub, so the towel is wet for the second shower. Bed is comfy. Nice walks from the Lodge. In the description, it doesn't tell you it's adults only until you go right down to the bottom so be mindful of this.

The property

Donisthorpe 1.4 miles.

Buttercup is a contemporary, single-storey lodge based on the Steam Mill Lodges site, along the Derbyshire/Leicestershire border.

Well-equipped with contemporary appliances, a private hot tub and glorious countryside and lake views, Buttercup provides a lovely home for friends and loved ones looking to spend some time away from normality.

Step into the open-plan living area, where you can kick back on the settee and catch-up on your favourite shows on the Smart TV, or cross over to the amply-equipped kitchen and impress the group by whipping up a home-cooked dish.

Toast to a wonderful escape with your nearest and dearest, before escaping outside and appreciating the idyllic views.

The hot tub sits under a covered area with outdoor lighting, allowing you to enjoy lazy soaks long into the night.

The bedrooms each feature double beds with Smart TVs, whilst the master enjoys an en-suite shower room.

Gather together for a memorable retreat to this peaceful setting, whatever time of year.

The ancient village of Donisthorpe lies on the Derbyshire/Leicestershire border and just a short drive from the picturesque Derbyshire Dales. This former mining village has a thriving village pub, one of the oldest buildings in the village, a Post Office and shop and is ideally located in the heart of the National Forest close to many chocolate box villages and interesting towns. Nearby Burton upon Trent is a town straddling the River Trent, made famous by its breweries, and home of many award-winning ales. Alabaster carving, cloth working and manning the cotton mills are all central to the town’s history. The small market town of Market Bosworth is just a short drive away, home to the Battle of Bosworth, with an excellent visitor centre at the battlefield site. It has many amenities, including small independent shops, pubs and a renowned fish and chip shop, all located around the market square. There are many historic sites and places of interest such as Tutbury Castle, the Old Marina, the Bass Brewery Centre and the Claymills Pumping Station.
