Description

A lovely, chocolate box cottage in the centre of the beautiful conservation village of Winster.

This charming cottage is perfect for a family or group of friends and retains many of its original features, such as exposed beams and stone fireplace but also has a contemporary twist with its boutique-style décor and furnishings.

The bedrooms are all very tastefully decorated with added quirky soft furnishings and lovely deep stone windows, giving a light, pleasant feel to the rooms.

The modern, stylish bathroom has everything you need to relax after a long day of outdoor activities.

A delightful sitting room, featuring a woodburning stove with deep stone surround and comfy sofas, gives a lovely cottage feel, making a perfect place to sit back and chill out with your favourite tipple in the evenings.

There’s a fully-equipped kitchen, complete with quarry tile-style flooring, and interesting features such as exposed stone around the lovely deep window, giving lots of natural light.

It’s a perfect place to cook a lovely dinner or hearty breakfast and then eat together in the farmhouse-style dining room.

Outside is a good-sized garden with views of the beautiful surrounding hills with patio furniture, making this a great place for some alfresco dining while taking in the stunning scenery, perfect for letting the kids play and run off any extra energy!

Winster is a charming and interesting old village, built in pale limestone, creamy sandstone and dark gritstone.

Surrounded by glorious scenery, there are two pubs providing home-cooked food and traditional ales, a general store and a Post Office.

The Limestone Way footpath passes close by and there are many good routes for ramblers.

For some history and exploring, Matlock Bath, Bakewell, Chatsworth House and the High Peak Caverns are all a short drive away, making this an ideal year-round destination.

We had a lovely week at Holly Cottage.

It's spacious yet cosy with everything you need for a comfy stay. The views from the garden are spectacular. The area has some great walks on your doorstep but you're central to visit lots of iconic Derbyshire attractions. We would definitely recommend Holly Cottage and hope to return again one day.

A delightful cottage in a beautiful village.

Very comfortable and well appointed. We would have loved to have loaded up the fireplace to test it's coziness but the weather was too good. Winster is so well located to explore the Peak District, plenty to see on the doorstep but the rest of the region is very accessible .

Really lovely cottage with great views and excellent facilities.

Once we found the car parking space we loved our stay here. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean and the welcome back was really helpful after a 6 hour drive. The garden is lovely although again with steep steps but that’s why the sunset views were so lovely too. We found the car parking space a little difficult to find and up a very steep hill! Facilities were good and we had absolutely everything we needed. Communications beforehand was fine and we were able to gain entry fairly easy. I think more information about the parking space with pictures would have been helpful to avoid confusion. A neighbour did knock on the door to ask if we’d parked our car in front (we hadn’t) so parking is clearly is a bit of a problem. Lots to do nearby and we went for a walk, visited Alton towers and Sheffield during our stay.
