Cottage to rent in Ashbourne, Derbyshire

Accommodation details

A handsome first-floor cottage on a working farm just 1.5 miles from the edge of The Peak District National Park. Surrounded by wildlife and idyllic rural landscapes, the cottage features an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, an enclosed garden and easy access to Langsett Reservoir and Midhope Reservoir.

This is the perfect bolthole for active families or small groups keen to explore this area's natural wonders and picture-book market towns. The cottage enjoys a beautiful view of the working farm set between Langsett and Upper Midhope, an area blessed with rolling wooded hills and vast bodies of water.

The homely interior is adorned with fresh colours and contemporary soft furnishings, with plenty of natural light flowing into its large, bright rooms from multiple angles. A staircase directly at the front door leads left into an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, a thoughtfully arranged space featuring a striking carpeted floor, various comfortable seating overlooking the countryside through a glass Juliet balcony and plenty of work surface space.

To the right of the staircase are two inviting bedrooms with soothing decor and sloping ceilings. Adjacent to these bedrooms is a smart family shower room. The enclosed garden below is a secluded space with ample seating and country views, a peaceful setting to absorb nature and meet some of the farm's winged and hooved residents.

The Peak District National Park is bursting with footpaths and cycle trails that lead to its innumerable market towns and villages. Langsett Reservoir and Midhope Reservoir (both within 1 mile) are ideal for walkers, as is Derwent Edge (14 miles). Castleton, Hathersage and Bakewell (the home of Chatsworth House) are all within 14 miles.
