“We have stayed at Dalescroft last year and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.”

The weather this time was not so good but we discovered the local bus service to Buxton and Ashbourne! - on time with helpful and informative staff. The location of this apartment is really good with two very good pubs for meals and quality of the beer and wine. The cheese shop is well worth a visit, as is the general store and tea shops. Walking from the apartment offers several walks without driving. The cleanliness, décor and comfort of the apartment is excellent.

“I most enjoyed the walking and the bonus of not needing to use my waterproofs for the whole week.”

Some excellent beers at some super pubs around the area is also another important element of any good walking holiday. The apartment itself is superb and ideally situated right in the centre of the village. Not the first stay for us and will not be the last.

- Mr Janew, October 2019
“The apartment was great and ideally situated in the centre of the village.”

It was a nice touch to find a welcoming complimentary bottle of wine and tea and biscuits. All though the weather could have been better we still managed to get out and do some of the local walks which meant we hardly had to use the car. A very enjoyable holiday.

- Mr Smith, September 2019
“Have been to this property before so knew what to expect.”

Everything you need available for cooking etc &set in a beautiful little village, with many varied places to visit nearby

- Mrs Edwards, September 2019
“Lovely, clean and well equipped apartment with lots of extra touches including a bottle of wine.”

Excellent location, ideal for walking and exploring the area.

- Mrs Hammond, September 2019
“A wonderful place to stay, right in the centre of a lovely dales village.”

- Mr Walls, July 2019
“Dales Croft is a comfortable and spacious apartment set in a village with a wonderful sense of community.”

Locals are friendly, very helpful and are so good at providing tourist information.

- Mr Kirby, July 2019
“The property location in Hartington is great - a beautiful, quiet village with ample walks on the doorstep such as Beresford Vale and Dove Dale.”

There are a few pubs and local shops so you can settle in. The flat itself was very welcoming and the communication was helpful. Two comfy en-suite rooms and a spacious open plan lounge/dining area, and a kitchen with everything you might need. We really enjoyed our trip and would happily stay here again.

- Mr Franklin Routh, June 2019
“Was not expecting such a large comfortable flat.”

Ideally located in the center of the village. Nice bottle of wine on arrival and plenty of coffee/tea, milk and bicuits. Very clean and roomy with two double bedrooms. TV if you need it and excellent wifi. Be warned that the mobile phone service in the village is practically zero but the wifi will come to your aid. Lots of circular walks so you don't even need to drive and plenty of eateries in the village with shops. Enjoy!

- Mr Cannon, June 2019
“This is the second time we have stayed in Dales Croft Apartment and it suits our needs perfectly.”

It is spotlessly clean and has several welcoming touches that we have not experienced elsewhere. Would not hesitate to recommend.

- Mr Corrigan, May 2019
“The apartment was very clean, spacious and well equipped.”

We would have preferred a proper shower over the bath rather than the hand-held spray arrangement on the taps. There was a walk-in shower in the other bedroom but it would have been nicer not to have to walk through the apartment wrapped in a towel. The balcony off the bedroom was a very pleasant sun- trap to sit on in the afternoon.

- Mrs Carroll, May 2019
“An excellent apartment in a beautiful village.”

It was spotlessly clean and a real ‘home from home’ (lovely bottle of wine, tea and coffee, cleaning products and toiletries too which was really nice). The beds are very comfortable and there are ample facilities/equipment to cook meals. Beautiful walks from the doorstep too. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return.

- Ms Jenkins, May 2019
“Excellent place to stay, central to all the walks we wanted to do, cosy, warming ...”

Excellent place to stay, central to all the walks we wanted to do, cosy, warming and great having the pubs in the village

- Mrs Brewin, March 2019
“Excellent cottage for 2 couples, with2 double bedrooms both ensuite.”

Kitchen very well equipped and cottage very clean and warm. Warm welcome with bottle of wine left Lovely village with shops, 2 pubs and teashop and walks from the door

- Mrs Stephenson, November 2018
“Even though the weather was mixed and we love walking -there was so much else to see and do in the area.”

Chatsworth House for their Christmas decorations, their farm shop and Buxton to explore. The apartment is situated in the heart of the village of Hartington with two pubs within close proximity, a good general store, the cheese shop selling an excellent range of local cheeses and tea shops. There are local walks so no need to travel by car. The apartment itself had everything to make it home from home with plenty of room in the lounge and two spacious bedrooms - each having en suite facilities. Warm and welcoming and maintained to a high level of maintenance and cleanliness. We would love to visit again in the future.

- Mrs Sanford, November 2018
“Lovely location and stunning apartment.”

We were disappointed that we had nowhere to store our bikes- it would have been good to know this as we would have booked somewhere else. We had decided to leave them in the apartment but the accommodation information booklet (very strict and very thorough) stated we must not leave bikes. We have expensive bikes so did not want to leave them locked in the street. So we asked the very helpful chap in the antiques shop below if he knew anywhere. He did suggest the apartments' bin store downstairs. We managed to find the key and we put the bikes in there which was a tight squeeze and they had to be standing up on the back wheels. But other that that, we would highly recommend the apartment it was perfect.

- Mrs Bailey, September 2018
“Lovely and clean apartment, with all the facilities and equipment required.”

Lots of little extras included on arrival. Toiletries, dishwasher tablets etc. Wi-fi worked well, and the constant hot water was much appreciated. Having two bathrooms, the apartment is perfect for two couples, although they could do with a little upgrading. At night there is no noise as the bedrooms are at the back of the apartment. Well placed in a beautiful village, with pubs, shops and lovely walks around the area. There is a bus stop right outside the apartment, so no need for the car, unless you want to travel further afield to visit the many delights that Derbyshire has to offer.

- Mrs Brough, September 2018
“Apartment was spacious, well equipped and comfortable.”

Hartington is a delightful village and a good base for exploring Southern Peaks. Excellent food at the Devonshire Arms. Looking forward to a return visit.

- Mr Rushton, September 2018
“The apartment was lovely, had very thing we need for our visit.”

The complementary wine and milk was much appreciated.

- Mr Fletcher, September 2018
“Amazing holiday, perfect cottage in a great area.”

Can’t wait for our next trip!

- Mr Green, June 2018
“Accommodation was larger than expected and very well equipped with additional touches that made the stay more enjoyable.”

- Mr Smith, June 2018
“We loved the location.”

The village was alive and the people were friendly. The Cotton Hotel was better value than the pub. The village shop is excellent and worth support. All in all we had a great time

- Dr Cox, June 2018
“Loved this apartment with its beamed ceilings.”

So full of character and well equipped. It was very comfortable and in a great location. Handy for walking and next door to a lovely pub with great food - The Devonshire Arms.

- Mrs James, April 2018
“A lovely, spotlessly clean apartment.”

Well-equipped, comfortable, and in a central but quiet location. The village had everything we needed, beautiful walks, two cosy pubs serving good food, a remarkable general store and newsagents, and a cafe serving full breakfasts when we were too lazy to cook. Close to two market towns which we explored. Haddon Hall was amazing and just a few miles away. An excellent place to stay.

- Mrs Genlloud, December 2017
“Lovely apartment with everything you need and a great location.”

Harrington is a chocolate box village, beautiful cottages in a splendid countryside setting with duck pond, local shops, cafés and pubs. The apartment has a large lounge dinner which has been tastefully furnished, the kitchen is equipped with everything you need including a dishwasher. Both bedrooms have en suite bathrooms and there is a small sun roof terrace with benches. Good wi fi internet provided and plenty of hot water on demand. The apartment was very clean and the housekeeper provided some lovely finishing touches including toiletries and a welcome pack. It was also good to have off road parking for the car and there was an excellent pub nearby. Thanks Christine for providing a fantastic apartment which made our holiday such a memorable one

The property

A cosy first floor apartment in the centre of the pretty village of Hartington.

Set above a quaint little antiques shop, this apartment is very welcoming, with a contemporary feel and is just perfect for two couples or a small group looking for a retreat or to explore the stunning Derbyshire countryside.

There’s a well-equipped kitchen, and an open plan living/dining area with polished wood floors, beams, comfortable soft leather furnishings and a coal-effect fire, creating a cosy yet modern atmosphere to relax in at the end of a busy day exploring.

Both the comfortable bedrooms have en-suite facilities and one of them has a large access window where you can step out to a completely private balcony to take some air where there are no views other than the beautiful sky.

Hartington is a popular little market town lying on the River Dove.

From this village there are two major cycle and walking routes, the Tissington Trail and the High Peak Trail which meet at nearby Parsley Hay.

Hartington has lots to offer with its popular real ale pubs, quaint tea rooms and old curiosity shops and duck pond.

You can also visit the local cheese shop, selling its own unique Dovedale Cheese.

Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are only short car drives away making this a lovely little retreat whenever you go.

About the location

HARTINGTON

Bakewell 10 miles; Buxton 10 miles.

Peak District Cottage Holidays

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.
