Description

Ashover 2 miles.

Tucked away amidst the rolling Derbyshire fields on the outskirts of Alton near Ashover is Moor Farm Cottage.

This delightful cottage has been thoughtfully renovated blending characterful beams with contemporary appliances and stylish decor, it also benefits from a spacious, open-plan living space, two beautifully-appointed bedrooms, a gym and a wonderful patio with far-reaching countryside views, hot tub and barbecue; the perfect choice for couples, small families or friends looking to explore Derbyshire.

After a day full of exploration, cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and head straight into the open-plan living space where you can unwind in front of the Smart TV on either of the plush sofas.

From here you can watch on as the designated chef of the group rustles up a hearty meal in the fully-equipped kitchen, sample their culinary creations at the dining table or on warmer evenings indulge in an alfresco affair by firing up the barbecue.

While away evenings with a glass of wine in hand while you admire the breath-taking views across the countryside before indulging in a soothing soak in the hot tub; the perfect place to marvel at the sun set or the stars as they fill the sky.

When the evening draws to a close, head back inside to wash off the day’s adventures in the shower room before sloping off to sleep in either the super-king-size or twin/super-king-size (zip/link) bedrooms.

If you can tear yourself away from this delightful dwelling, venture into the nearby village of Ashover, with a choice of three local pubs serving real ales, including 5 times Camra pub of the year winner The Old Poet’s Corner.

Ashover is also a previous winner of the Calor Gas Village of the Year award and is one of the prettiest villages in Derbyshire.

Ashover has a fascinating 15th century church, many historic buildings and stunning surrounding countryside.

Indulge in a hearty breakfast or quick bite to eat in the Stamp Coffee Shop or sample some tasty treats from Anna’s tuck shop.

Ashover also has a butchers/grocery store and a post office.

Also nearby is the village of Kelstedge where you can pick up essentials at the local farm shop or enjoy a well-earned break from the kitchen with food at The Kelstedge Inn.

A must see is the nearby spa village of Matlock Bath; renowned as a seaside resort nowhere near the sea, this unique place sports old-timey fish and chip shops, ice cream parlours, candy floss parlours, glitzy arcades and souvenir boutiques all alongside the River Derwent.

The magnificent Chatworth House is a short drive from Moor Farm and this renowned stately home, and its stunning gardens should not be missed.

Chatsworth has been used as a location set for numerous films, television, and music videos, as well as hosting an annual Country Fair and Chatsworth Horse Trials.

It also boasts a wonderful farmyard and adventure playground to keep the kids amused.

Chesterfield is also within reach where you can find a whole host of other amenities and eateries as well as the Revolution House Museum; continue this historic excursion by visiting the stunning Haddon Hall, the breath-taking Bolsover Castle, or the Elizabethan Hardwick Hall.

The Peak District National Park also lies nearby offering an abundance of walking, cycling, and hiking trails with picturesque panoramas over the English Countryside.

All this and more awaits at Moor Farm Cottage.

This property is a real home from home and was a great location for our visits to Matlock, Bakewell and Chatsworth house.

The whole property is very spacious, tastefully decorated and had beautiful flowers and a generous welcome pack on arrival. We were met by Andrew who gave us a quick tour of the property and offered any help should we need it. The gym and hot tub were a treat! We would definitely book this cottage again.

Andrew was very welcoming on arrival, giving us a full tour of the property and how everything works.

There was a lovely welcome pack and flowers and the option to purchase a breakfast pack beforehand. The cottage was beautifully clean and kitted out with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The toiletries are a nice touch in both bathrooms and the kitchen has plenty of utensils, crockery and cleaning products. The hot tub was clean, and very relaxing looking over the fields after a day exploring. Andrew responded quickly to messages regarding any queries. Great location for exploring North Derbyshire and the Peak District and perfect for meeting up with friends for a break. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Owner( Andrew) personally welcomed us and gave us information on property which was useful.

The cottage and amenities were good but it just felt it needed a little TLC- in our opinion not truly 5 star. However the welcome basket was excellent and the location for visiting many peak attractions was good.
