1 Bed Cottage in Tansley

About this property

This charming barn conversion in Derbyshire is well placed for couples or solo travellers seeking a true Peak District escape. A mile away, the bustling market town of Matlock boasts a mix of shops, cafes, and restaurants, while Matlock Bath (2.5 miles) invites you to stroll its famous riverside promenade, enjoy traditional arcades, and tuck into classic fish and chips. The Heights of Abraham (2 miles) is a must-visit destination, with a scenic cable car ride that leads to hilltop caverns, woodland trails, and breathtaking views. Step straight from the cottage to discover the enchanting Lumsdale Waterfalls, a hidden gem of cascading falls and romantic ruins, or head to Black Rocks (3 miles) for dramatic landscapes and superb walking routes. For days steeped in history, explore Chatsworth House (8 miles) and Haddon Hall (7 miles), two of Derbyshire’s most iconic stately homes with stunning gardens and architecture.

Enter into this beautifully converted barn with all the modern comforts you need for your stay. The spacious open-plan living area provides ample space for two, featuring a snug lounge with a Smart TV and crackling wood burner for movie nights together, a well-appointed kitchen for easy holiday cooking, perfect for slow suppers after a day outdoors. The king-size bedroom is warm and inviting, with extra room for a cot or blow-up bed if you’re travelling with little ones. A stylish shower room provides the ideal place to refresh after scenic walks in the surrounding hills.

While the property doesn’t have a private garden, you’ll find a small seating area where you can sip a morning coffee. Better still, miles of countryside footpaths start right from your door. With off-road parking for one car included, your stay will be stress-free from the moment of arrival.
