“We had a lovely relaxing time at ...”

We had a lovely relaxing time at the cottage . It was clean ,tidy and comfortable. It was very central to the places we wanted to visit like Bakewell and Tissington Village was an ideal place for a walk. The only complaint is that I would recommend it for more than 3 people as there is no dining table for you to sit together to eat . There is a breakfast bar with 2 stalls.

“In spite of the positive feedback, ...”

In spite of the positive feedback, it is very unlikely that we would stay at this cottage again simply because of the traffic noise from the A515 which is obtrusive. However, in all fairness, we were warned about this when booking. Also, the arrangements for waste collection were unclear, and there was no spare black bag provided.

“Thank you for letting me change the ...”

Thank you for letting me change the dates due to illness, we have stayed once before any really enjoyed our stay. The cottage if comfortable and handy for local walks, cycle routes, the pub near by was excellent for food.

“Great weekend break in a cosy well presented cottage. Perfect”

We stayed here for the May Day Bank Holiday weekend. From the moment we arrived it was complete relaxation. The cottage is perfect for 2 and although on a busy road, it hardly mattered. The views from the garden were amazing - out over the hills and beyond. The cottage was clean and well equipped with everything you would need for a home from home. Lovely open fire for a cosy Friday evening in and well located for the friendly pub just a short stroll away. The cottage was great for walks from the door, Chatsworth, cycle riding along the Tissington Trail and many more activities. We even visited the local plant nursery to pick up some plants for our garden. Even here they were so friendly and helpful. It was a great escape for a few days of rest and we'd love to return soon.

“Lovely house, cosy and comfortable.”

Lovely house, cosy and comfortable. It is close to the road, but it did not disturb. The garden views were lovely and it was idyllic sitting out in the evening. Fabulous pub just a short walk away. Convenient for great walks and bike rides from the door. Didn't see half of what we wanted to , so will return. We were blessed with the best Bank Holiday weekend weather, so cannot complain about anything

“Cottage was very cosy, clean and ...”

Cottage was very cosy, clean and very welcoming, we loved the log burner! Excellent location to all the major places we wanted to visit such as Chatsworth House, Ashford in Water, Bakewell, Alton Towers, Heights of Abraham and many other beautiful little villages. Ashbourne was a gorgeous little town with some quaint shops and excellent coffee shops as well as a Waitrose and Sainsbury's. The Coach & Horses in Fenny Bentley itself served excellent home cooked food with very friendly and accommodating staff.

The property

A lovely two-bedroom, brick-built, semi-detached cottage next to the beautiful and historic Church of St Edmond in the pretty village of Fenny Bentley.

This cottage provides the perfect getaway for a couple or small family.

Step in through the front door, hang your coat up and kick your boots off in the hallway then enter into a very cosy sitting room with tiled flooring, contemporary furniture and a welcoming woodburning stove.

The open stairwell divides the sitting room from the modern, well-equipped kitchen with breakfast bar.

The bedrooms are tastefully done with original roof beams exposed and consist of a double and single.

The designer bathroom has a P-shaped bath with a shower over it so you can choose to spark yourself up for the hard day’s walk or soak those weary limbs at the end of it.

Rather quirkily, there’s a door on the first floor landing which leads out to the lovely garden which borders the church grounds.

There’s plenty of space for a run around and a lovely gravelled bed with furniture where you can enjoy a glass of something and look to the distant hills as the sun goes down with a soundtrack of singing birds and church bells.

If you prefer someone else to do the cooking, there’s a good pub a very short stroll away or there’s a huge choice of eateries and inns in Ashbourne just a couple of miles down the road.

As Fenny Bentley sits in the Peak District National Park, you are perfectly placed to explore on foot or bike with footpaths to both the Tissington Trail and Dovedale’s famous stepping stones accessible from the doorstep.

You can even paddle a kayak on Carsington Water.

If culture, heritage, shopping or cuisine is more your thing then the equally lovely towns of Ashbourne and Bakewell are readily accessible.

Whenever you choose to stay, you will be spoilt for choice.

About the location

FENNY BENTLEY

Ashbourne 2 miles; Alton Towers 13 miles.

The pretty village of Fenny Bentley lies 2 miles north of Ashbourne. Life in Fenny Bentley revolves, as it has done for years, around the pub and the church. The Church of St Edmund dates back to the 14th century. Some particular features of the church are its 16th century screens and the alabaster Beresford tomb. The heart of the village is surely the Coach & Horses, a welcoming coaching inn with real ales. Just 2 miles away, the traditional market town of Ashbourne, once a fashionable social centre in the 18th Century, boasts an eccentric street plan, quaint cobbled alleyways, old market stalls and welcoming coaching inns. Many fine Georgian buildings remain and host a good selection of restaurants and interesting antique shops. For those who prefer outdoor pursuits, the Dove and Manifold valleys are close by offering excellent walking and cycling opportunities, whilst the thrills and spills of Alton Towers are just a short drive away.
