Raise the bar with a stay at this gorgeous Peak District cottage that was once a traditional Derbyshire inn. Up to six guests can stay at the enticing, light holiday home set in the pretty village of Hartington. The three-bedroom, stone property, which has a charming, walled garden, has been beautifully converted and makes a wonderful base from which families and couple can explore the national park, while also enjoying the convenience of being close to pubs and shops.

Enter this inviting abode and wander from the hall, with its stone floor, into the welcoming, open-plan kitchen/diner to make a cup of tea. Find everything you need in here too for preparing tasty meals. Light the wood burner, lay the table then perch at the breakfast bar with a glass of wine while supper roasts. Wander through into the conservatory to take in the green views or choose to relax in the lounge, in the glow of the second wood burner, with the TV on or your book open. Climb the stairs from the lounge up to the first floor to discover a king-size bedroom, with en-suite shower room. A second staircase leads to another king-size, plus a twin, and a family bathroom. Return home from country walks to bask in the sunshine and gaze out over your surroundings from the walled garden. Find parking for two cars at the cottage.

Lace your walking boots and head straight out from home to discover the beauty of Peak District. Follow the 5.5-mile, circular Hartington Dales Walk, for example, through Beresford Dale and Wolfscote Dale, and along the River Dove. Pick up the High Peak and Tissington trails within 1 mile. Plan a day out to famous Chatsworth House, 15 miles away. Go sailing at Carsington Water, 11 miles from the cottage.
