Lodgeview

About this property

Lodgeview is an inviting annex in Langley Mill, offering rural views, off-road parking for two cars, an enclosed garden, and studio-style living. Ideal for couples, solo travellers and guests bringing their dogs, this single-storey retreat sleeps a maximum of four guests with the use of the sofa bed and places the landscapes of Derbyshire and Nottingham within easy reach. Pass through the side gate and enter your own enclosed gravelled courtyard, where pots of mint, lemon balm, thyme, bay and sage add colour and fragrance. Take a seat outside with a morning drink, or pick a few herbs to flavour an evening meal before heading indoors.

The open-plan interior brings everything together in one thoughtfully arranged space. A double divan bed with generous drawer storage sits alongside a chest, hanging space, and a full-length mirror, while the sofa bed offers additional flexibility. Settle beside the TV after a day outdoors, or connect to the WiFi while planning the next route through the surrounding countryside. The kitchen is equipped for self-catering, with an electric oven, induction hob, microwave, and fridge with an icebox. Prepare breakfast at the bar, then share it across two stools using the Denby crockery and glassware provided. A shower room with a walk-in shower completes the accommodation.

Begin locally with a walk around Langley Mill and the surrounding nature reserves, where rural views shape an easy-going day outdoors. Nearby Aldercar Flash Nature Reserve provides further opportunities to explore the landscape. Aldercar Fisheries is just a short walk away and regularly hosts fishing competitions, while its on-site café, Maggie's Den, is renowned locally for its popular breakfasts, served daily from 7am to 1pm. Dogs can join the adventure, with the enclosed courtyard providing a secure outdoor space on your return. Venture farther into Derbyshire for country walks and changing views, or spend a day discovering Nottingham city before returning to the slower pace of the countryside.

Whether your plans involve fishing, walking, city sightseeing, or simply enjoying the garden herbs and open views, Lodgeview makes a well-positioned base for the journey.

Langley Mill is a well-connected former industrial village resting between Heanor and Eastwood. The village is known for its canal heritage and offers a selection of attractions including the Erewash Canal, which provides pleasant waterside walks and cycling opportunities. Dining options include a range of local pubs, takeaways, and cafés, while you can stock up on essentials at the nearby Aldi, Morrisons and Tesco supermarkets. Within easy reach of the village is the bustling town of Heanor, where you can find further amenities, independent shops, traditional pubs, and eateries. For those who enjoy the outdoors, Shipley Country Park is nearby, offering woodland trails, lakes, cycling routes, and picnic areas. History enthusiasts can also visit Bennerley Viaduct, a restored Grade II* listed Victorian structure with walking and viewing platforms overlooking the Erewash Valley. For a wider choice of shopping, leisure facilities, and attractions, Nottingham is within easy reach, home to cultural venues, museums, theatres, and a vibrant dining scene, making Langley Mill a convenient base for exploring both Derbyshire and the surrounding area.
