About this property

Ripley 0.2 mile. The Loft at Amber View is a lovely, first-floor apartment resting in the hamlet of Sawmills, near Ripley. With off-road parking and ample walks throughout the local area, this property is ideal for a couple looking to explore the countryside of Derbyshire and the Peak District National Park. Climb the stairs and be welcomed into this delightful property, finding a light and airy studio-style layout. The sitting area is stylish and rests beside an ambient woodburning stove, and here there is also a hanging chair making the most of the incredible views, sported by the full-length windows. When mealtimes call, make the most of the tasteful kitchen space, using the ample amenities to create a romantic meal for two, which can be enjoyed at the dining table, accompanied by a glass of fizz. This property has an electric double bed which is adjustable, and a sleek shower room for your refreshment. From the property there is a footpath leading through the countryside, towards Fritchley and Crich. Sawmills is a small hamlet with a post office, located close to the town of Ripley, where you can find more amenities and attractions, including convenience stores, restaurants, pubs, and cafés. Options include Truffles Restaurant and Thorntree, and Belper also offers ample amenities. Visit Derby, which has museums, an arboretum, and Darley Park, or alternatively, visit Matlock Bath, which has arcades, an aquarium, the Heights of Abraham walk, and The Peak District Mining Museum, which gives visitors an insight into the region's past. There are plenty of other places to explore, such as the charming village of Bakewell, which is home to independent shops, pubs, and cafés, and serves home-made Bakewell Tarts. Other nearby towns include Ashbourne, Wirksworth, Brassington, Cromford, and Chatsworth. There are numerous amazing walks in the Peak District National Park, such as those at Thor's Cave, Lud's Church, The Roaches, and Kinder Scout. All of this and so much more with a stay at The Loft at Amber View.

The village of Ripley in Lower Nidderdale, situated on the leeward side of the Yorkshire Dales, was designed and built, by Sir William Amcotts Ingleby in the 1830's. Sir William was so inspired by a model estate village he saw on a visit to France, that he came home and demolished the existing buildings in Ripley, beginning again from scratch to a classic French design. Today, the village is small and unspoilt and boasts a beautiful Castle in the centre (still home to the Ingleby family) with extensive gardens open to the public which include waterfalls, bridges and a lake. Deer graze in the grounds and there is a shop and tea-rooms within the Castle. The village has a large cobbled market place in the centre, overlooked by the Boar's Head - an old coaching inn which offers an excellent restaurant, bar and bistro. There is a village store and ice cream parlour where visitors can enjoy the very popular Ripley ice cream, along with a butcher’s, art gallery and much more.
