About this property
Stocksbridge 1 mile.
A lovely, stone-built Peak District cottage, on a country lane 1 mile from Stocksbridge, on the edge of the Peak District National Park, with views of the valley and surrounding moors. This former housekeeper's Stocksbridge cottage has been lovingly restored to make anideal romantic retreat; the spacious master bedroom is a real delight, with a king-size bed and first-class en-suite bathroom. The living area of this Stocksbridge cottage is very cosy, with wonderful large sash windows and an electric stove. Enjoy wonderful walks from the doorstep of this Stocksbridge cottage, explore Langsett and the Don Valley, or visit the vibrant city of Sheffield. This is an ideal Stocksbridge cottage for a base to get away from it all and enjoy fine country living.
Stocksbridge is a town on the north-east edge of the lovely Peak District, and offers a variety of places to eat and shop, as well as a host of footpaths and bridleways to explore. Afternoon strolls can be enjoyed beside the Langsett, Broomhead and Moorhall dams, and Holmfirth, featured in Last of the Summer Wine, is close by. The longer walks and good mountain biking of the National Park are a short drive away, and visitors may even take advantage of the proximity of the M1 to venture as far afield as Sheffield, Leeds or York.

..the charm extended beyond, as the views were wonderful too. A perfect, dog friendly stay too...quiet walks on the doorstep. Freshly baked,delicious scones, jam and butter greeted me as well as all the essentials for a good cuppa and more besides in a well equipped kitchenette. Lashings of hot water, a bath (my go to!) and a very comfy bed for a peaceful nights sleep. Super hosts, there if needed but not intrusive..good parking for guests too. Enjoyed a chat with David whilst he was tending the pretty garden.... Looking forward to returning back to the cottage to explore more of such a lovely area.

We were impressed by the cottage and the space therein all rooms being a really good size. The cottage is beautiful, cosy and well equipped with lovely surrounding gardens and wonderful views of the surrounding area. We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone as it is perfect for local walks and others within a fifteen minute drive. You may often find David working in the garden who will gladly chat about the area and local history. We can also highly recommend Lee's House for a super Chinese takeaway which we feel is simply the best Chinese we have ever had.
