The Dairy is one of seven stone built holiday cottages nestled in the beautiful Derbyshire countryside in the heart of the Peak District National Park. It has a lovely sun room that leads onto the sunny patio. The complex is surrounded by fabulous countryside in an area renowned for its fine walking and cycling. For those wanting to give their cars a true rest, walks can be enjoyed direct from the door with a nature reserve surrounding Cotterill Farm, and the bridleway at the end of the drive takes you to the ever popular village of Hartington with its pubs, cafés and local store. For those with bikes the nearby Sustrans Route 54 links the High Peak Trail to the Tissington Trail, which as a former railway line is also perfect for walkers.
Located midway between Ashbourne and Buxton the cottages are well placed for the host of major tourist attractions that the Peak District offers. The magnificent Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, beautiful village of Castleton, the Dove and Manifold Valleys, plus the attractive local towns of Buxton, Ashbourne, Bakewell and Matlock, can all be reached in under 30 minutes. Ashbourne has a good range of shops, while Buxton has superb architecture including the Opera House. Bakewell has a wonderful setting on the River Wye, and is of course home of the Bakewell Pudding. The former spa town of Matlock and the spectacular location of neighbouring Matlock Bath is the setting for a mining museum, cable car rides and show caves. Finally Britain’s premier theme park Alton Towers is also around ½ hour away. Shop 2 miles, pub and restaurant ½ mile.
