About this property
A unique little "castle" hidden away in a peaceful location on the Derwent Valley hillside between Bakewell and Matlock.
Concealed amongst the soothing Derwent Valley hillside, with lovely views from the rooftop terrace, this unique "castle" was built around 150 years ago. Enjoy a tipple of your choice snuggling up in the lounge by the log burning stove, or in warmer weather, enjoy a drink on the rooftop terrace.
If you can bear to tear yourself away, you might like to take a wander across the meadows to the Plough Inn in Two Dales village for a bite to eat or jump in the car and after just a few minutes drive, you could be visiting some of the Peak District's many other attractions. Take a ride on a steam train in Matlock, have a pudding in Bakewell or soak up history at the famous Chatsworth House. At the end of a long day exploring, there’s one thing to remember; your castle awaits!
