  • "A lovely holiday house."

    Comfortable, well equipped and in a beautiful location. Very peaceful and close to some great walks and sights. The owners were very attentive, friendly and helpful. We all enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

  • "The Beeches was a great home away from home for a week and we really looked forward to returning to the cottage after a day exploring the Derbyshire Dales."

    The cottage was equipped to a high standard in terms of equipment and just some of the small touches made by Jane (such as a box of Maltesers on arrival) just added to the overall impression. The Beeches felt lived in and a home and on a couple of days when the weather was at its worst we were quite happy as a family of 4 watching TV, reading or just relaxing. whilst our SatNAV didn't take us to the precise location, the detailed description and directions got us safely there. A great base for exploring the area and we'd definitely return to The Beeches again

  • "Cottage was very comfortable well furnished and kitchen equipment good."

    Nice bedrooms with good storage for clothes etc and comfortable beds. Only recommendation we would make is that the garden furniture is replaced at sometime it was looking a bit jaded but believe that the garden is a work in progress. Dog friendly garden fully enclosed we enjoyed our stay

  • "This cottage is fantastic with great views."

    The downstairs bedrooms are really useful for people less mobile but the downstairs bathroom has a shower inside the bath and getting leg over to step into bath to stand under shower can prove difficult with people less mobile. Also it states it sleeps 6, which it does, but there are only enough seats for 4, in the living room. One chair and one 3 seated sofa.

The property

Winster 3.1 miles.

The Beeches is a lovely, contemporary, detached dormer bungalow next to a working dairy farm and surrounded by beautiful countryside in the village of Aldwark, near Winster in Derbyshire.

The Beeches is tastefully-finished throughout, making it perfect for a group of friends or family to enjoy this fabulous area of the Peak District National Park.

The two double bedrooms are situated on the ground floor with a bathroom next door, making it suitable for a member of the group who is less mobile.

The twin bedroom is on the first floor and benefits from an en-suite shower room as well as lovely views across the farm and surrounding countryside.

The sleek kitchen has everything you need including a very useful breakfast bar with stools ideal for feeding little ones (and big ones for that matter!).

There’s an inviting sitting room with a tasteful, glowing woodburning stove and a large dining table ideal for a banquet.

From here, patio windows open out to the enclosed garden that wraps around the cottage so there’s always a chance to catch the sun wherever you are.

There’s a porch for hanging kit and boots or drying off Fido and there’s also a secure shed if you wish to take bikes with you.

It’s a perfect place to chill out, however there are loads of choices to make your stay action packed with plenty of walks including the High Peak Trail and the historic Minninglow planting, just a short hop from the property.

The beautiful village of Winster and the heritage rich Cromford are easily reached by car, whilst the activities of Carsington Water are also located just a few miles away.

Alternatively, for a good day out, head to Gulliver’s Kingdom at Matlock Bath, as well as Matlock, Bakewell, Monsal Head, and the picturesque town of Ashbourne, known as the Gateway to the Dales.

Other places nearby and well-worth visiting are Haddon Hall, Chatsworth House, and Kedleston Hall.

For even more enjoyment, a little further afield you’ll find Alton Towers, which will provide fun for all.

The Beeches provides relaxing accommodation in a splendid part of the country, making it a great base for a family holiday any time of the year.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

About the location

WINSTER

Bakewell 6 miles; Matlock 4.5 miles.

The conservation village of Winster is situated within the White Peak area of the Peak District National Park and is an extremely pretty place, with a charming 17th century market house at its centre, and other imposing 17th and 18th century houses, many three storeys high. The three main streets - Main Street, East Bank and West Bank are interconnected by alleyways known as ‘ginnels’, which are well worth exploring. The village of Winster is famous for its Morris dancers, the annual Shrove Tuesday pancake race, Wakes festivities in June, and the Secret Gardens of Winster event in July. Within the village there is a well-stocked, community-owned general store incorporating a Post Office. There are two pubs, both serving food and traditional beer. Bakewell, Matlock, Chatsworth House, and the Peak Rail Steam Railway are all nearby and, for keen walkers and cyclists, The Limestone Way runs along the edge of the village. The Tissington and High Peaks walking and cycling trails, with bike hire available, both lie less than 5 miles from the village, a wonderful base for exploring the Peak District.
