  • "It wasn't clean and the drains were all blocked"

  • "This is a truly wonderful cottage."

    Quirky, beautifully decorated, clean, warm and cosy. We arrived to a thoughtful welcome pack including local butter, eggs, milk, bread and cake. The beds were super comfy and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. The house is located in the perfect location for exploring the Peak District. Tideswell is lovely and so friendly. We had no issues parking outside and the pub directly opposite is welcoming and serves delicious food. We thoroughly recommend going for pies on a Wednesday night! Whilst we loved the church bells going off every 15 minutes, light sleepers may want to bring ear plugs. The only things we struggled with and fed back to the very helpful owner were: *Wooden kitchen work surfaces are super, super sticky. Pans stuck to them. We never felt they we could clean them properly. *There is a steep wooden decked bridge to get into the garden which is very slippery when wet. One morning there was a frost and myself and dogs couldn’t even get over it! (And the perfect addition to this house would be a washing machine. With kids and dogs and muddy walks we did struggle)

  • "We stayed at Billy Whiskies Cottage at the beginning of October for 4 nights and had a brilliant stay."

    The property has everything you could want, it is clean, warm, comfortable and homely. Absolutely loved the Aga in the kitchen! Lots of walks and pubs right on the doorstep and many more a short drive away. Perfect base for a relaxing week away walking the peaks and eating good pub grub. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

  • "Fantastic property, very quaint and quirky with the upstairs living room."

    Good sized bathrooms and bedrooms. Was our first time staying in a old property like that. Good location to the shops and amenities . The star Inn pub is really nice which is a stone's throw from the cottage.

    Good communication with the owner. Loved the aga. Very comfortable beds and settees. Very clean. Tideswell is a pretty village with good shops in easy walking distance from the house. We’d love to return one day.

  • "Billy Whiskey's is the perfect Tideswell location."

    The property has everything that you could possibly need and lots of luxury extras. We had a wonderful week in the Peaks and are already planning our next trip.

  • "We loved our long weekend at Billy Whiskeys."

    Well located in the centre of the village, with the co-op minutes away, parking on the street which was very easy. And the cottage is delightful, cosy and all the amenities you could need. We loved the Aga (and the helpful instructions), relaxing areas. We really appreciated the very generous welcome pack of local milk, butter and oatcakes. And we had four dogs, with plenty of room for them all, and the dog shower, perfect after an inevitable muddy walk. The garden is small, and not grassed, but the church or field at the back are easy to get to. There are alot of stair, and the first floor bathroom is a bit awkward to get into, so I would only suggest some more handrails

The property

Nestled in the heart of the Peak District National Park in the small village of Tideswell, sits this impressive cottage, Billy Whiskey's.

Enjoying a blend of rustic and contemporary features, this historic property is a former shop dating back to 1729, and takes its name from the first shop keeper, Billy Whiskey.

The property has been thoughtfully renovated and now offers families and friends a pet-friendly dwelling and wonderful base to explore the countryside.

Leave your vehicle in a roadside space before making your way inside to discover the shaker-style kitchen, with an AGA cooker to whip up heart-warming meals.

There's also a sitting area with a cushioned sofa and wall-mounted TV to relax with a cold beverage whilst dinner is cooking.

Adjacent, you will find the dining room with an exposed stone wall and beams; here you can gather together for meals and enjoy a pack of cards for some family fun.

Climb upstairs to the first floor to unwind in the sitting room, where a woodburning stove gently heats the space as you relish a glass of wine.

The first floor leads out onto the rear garden, so why not carry the conversation onto the outdoor decking, as your furry friend stretches out in front of you?

As day draws to night, retire inside and sink into the tub for a bubble-bath, as the Velux window reveals the night sky.

Next door, is the master bedroom, hosting a king-size bed and to discover two more bedrooms, venture to the second floor for another king-size and a twin bedroom, serviced by a shower room.

In the morning, awaken tired eyes with a steaming cup of coffee in the garden, ready for a day of exploring.

Just paces away is the local pub, The Star Inn, where you can sample real ales and home-cooked meals, or pop into the convenience store for your own ingredients.

Jump in the car to visit local attractions, including Eyam Museum to learn about the Plague, stroll along the wonderful Water-Cum-Jolly Dale and test your stamina on an incline walk up Mam Tor.

Visit the Spa town of Buxton; here you can enjoy live entertainment at the grand Buxton Opera House, if that's not for you, delve underground into the two-million-year-old Poole's Cavern & Buxton Country Park.

Also, within easy reach and worth a trip, is the town of Bakewell to taste the renowned Bakewell Tart at a café or tour the stately home of Chatsworth House.

To treat the ones who mean the most, stay at Billy Whiskey's.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.

The village of Tideswell stands in the heart of the Peak District National Park.

There is excellent walking with rugged peaks to the north, gentle hills and dales to the south and Millers Dale just outside the village. Mam Tor and Castleton are only a few miles away and the popular Spa town of Buxton is within a 15 minute drive. Tideswell has many fine country inns, a chemist, butchers, bakers and much more including a convenient supermarket open daily until 10pm. The pretty little market town of Bakewell is also just a short drive away and well worth a visit.
