The property
An absolutely superb four bedroom cottage in the centre of the village of Elton in between Matlock and Bakewell.
All bedrooms can be configured as twins or doubles so this extremely versatile cottage is ideal for four couples, eight individuals or any group formation.
The cottage is finished to a very high standard with a tasteful mix of contemporary and restored period architectural pieces.
The modern designer kitchen features a very high end range and is perfect for preparing a feast to be enjoyed in the lovely dining room featuring double French windows out to the garden.
The spacious sitting room has a woodburning stove and provides a comfortable and cosy retreat at the end of the day.
Two of the bedrooms and a bathroom are on the ground floor which is ideal if there’s a member of the group who doesn’t get on with stairs.
Both feature patio doors out to a sheltered courtyard area with fabulous views and the stunning bathroom includes a luxurious roll-top bath as well as a large separate shower.
Two further bedrooms on the first floor are equally luxurious as are the two designer shower rooms.
There’s also a little quiet reading area on the landing.
The beautifully manicured lawn is a fantastic place for the kids to play and the owner has left plenty of garden toys to keep them occupied.
For the adults, the cottage is pitch side to the local cricket club and what could be more quintessentially English than taking tea on the lawn and watching the game with the sounds of leather on willow and cries of “howzat?”.
Tear yourself away and you have lots of choice to fill your days, with beautiful Winster one mile away and Bakewell and Matlock five miles in each direction.
A stunning property in a fantastic position to enjoy the Peaks any time you are lucky enough to go.
