About this property
The Old Toll Bar cottage is a brilliant holiday retreat on the edge of the Peak District National Park.
A fantastic renovation of the original Toll Bar, this cottage is flowing with quality throughout, making it a really great holiday retreat for family and friends. The décor inside is stunning, whilst embracing lots of original features, such as the stone arches between rooms. You’ll feel right at home, with a comfortable lounge, spacious and well equipped kitchen, separate dining room and three lovely bedrooms.
The Old Toll Bar is situated just outside the historic town of Wirksworth on the edge of the Peak District National Park, meaning you won’t be stuck for things to do during your stay. Head into Wirksworth, filled with history and heritage. Catch a train from Wirksworth to Duffield on the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway, or a film at Northern Lights little cinema. Venture to the High Peak trail - great for walkers and cyclists. Carsington Water is great if you’re wanting to have a go at some water-sports, or visit StarDisc - a 21st century stone circle star chart sitting high above Wirksworth. Don’t forget to visit Matlock Bath’s cable cars and have a stroll along the riverside prom.
Jump in the car and you’ll soon be at the magnificent Chatsworth House, historic Haddon Hall or travel to Bakewell, famous for its Pudding and take in the breath-taking views of picturesque villages, hills, valleys and sparking rivers on your way.
