Detached Stone Cottage in Rural Setting
Peak District Cottage Between Dove and Manifold Valleys
Sleeps 4 (2 Bedrooms)
|
|
This delightful cottage, set in its own garden, is located in the heart of the White Peak area of the Peak District National Park. The pretty village of Longnor is 2.5 miles away and has local shops, a Post Office and a good variety of pubs and restaurants, it also boasts one of the best fish and chip shops in the North of England. The famous spa town of Buxton is just 6 miles away and has supermarkets, an opera house, swimming baths and a host of other leisure activities. The area is rich in visitor attractions including Chatsworth and Haddon country houses, Blue John Mines or, for the young or young at heart, Alton Towers. The outdoor attractions are far too numerous to list them all, but include hundreds of miles of footpaths, leading to some of the most beautiful scenery in Britain, local pony trekking and even, for the really adventurous, gliding and paragliding at Great Hucklow. If you want more information please ring us for details.

Owner profile
About the owner
Bernard and Carole bought the cottage from some friends who now live in Italy and who introduced them to Owners Direct. It had been in our friends family for generations and we have been visiting for over forty years and have always loved the place. We have been letting the cottage from April '04 but since December '07 with Owners Direct with whom we have been delighted. We are very pleased that about 50% of our guests are people returning for their second, third or even sixth visit. we live about 30 minutes away and do most of the changeovers ourselves, so we are close enough to be on hand should you need anything. If you would like any further information about the cottage or the area, please don't hesitate to ring or email us, we will be happy to help.
