  • "A lovely house to stay in, very quiet location, very comfortable, well-equipped, large back garden with plenty of seating outside, a summerhouse to escape to if you wanted solitude."

    Although a 7- sleeper, the 2 lounges would each only seat 3 on the sofas/arm chair, so we couldn't all sit together of an evening.We would have liked some coat hooks down stairs and somewhere to put our shoes....wet coats ended up hanging on doors or backs of chairs, and wet shoes on the floor in the scullery....not ideal with 7 of us. I kept our 2 large dogs tethered in the back garden as there was a possibility one may have jumped down over the back wall or climbed over the side wall if running free, but not likely to be a problem with small dogs. Easy access to shops in the local towns, and Dale walks by car, some walks directly from the village, plenty of fresh farm eggs for sale and a small farm shop. A very enjoyable stay.

HARTINGTON

Bakewell 10 miles; Buxton 10 miles.

Hartington, situated in the Dove Valley in the Peak District National Park, was an important market centre in the Middle Ages, having been granted a market charter in 1203. Today the ever-popular village boasts lovely tea rooms, a cheese shop, old curiosity shops, traditional pubs and a splendid market square where the stone-carved village pump, once an important source of water for the villagers, still stands on the green. The local bars stock local ales brewed at the Leatherbritches Brewery in Fenny Bentley and Whim Ales in Hartington itself. The former Hartington railway station, about a mile and half from the village itself, is now a picnic area and the converted track is known as the Tissington Trail, popular with both walkers and cyclists. Hartington is also a good starting point for walking along Beresford Dale, a beautiful place with its curiously formed cliffs and rocks. Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are both within a 20 minute drive, and Alton Towers is within easy reach.
