About this property
This beautiful detached cottage is situated next door to the owner’s home and adjacent to a small plant nursery, in the small hamlet of Calwich, surrounded by wonderful countryside with walks to enjoy, close to the lovely market town of Ashbourne. Enter the cottage into a spacious hallway, where to the left is a beautifully equipped kitchen, complete with dining area, and then through to the sitting room with a warming woodburning stove and 40" Smart TV to enjoy after a day of exploring the area. French doors lead to a pretty sun room and access to the private garden. The other side of the hallway leads to the ground floor single bedroom with TV and luxurious bathroom with freestanding bath, perfect for that pampering bubble bath. Upstairs are two further bedrooms and a shower room. Adding to the luxury of this gorgeous cottage, the owners include bathrobes and slippers, and Smart TV in the double bedrooms. Completing the picture is the lovely hot tub in the garden. Part of the garden is walled with lawn and patio housing that hot tub, making it perfect to enjoy all day. There is a huge array of things to enjoy from this cottage, including some wonderful walks, cycle routes and attractions of the area, including nearby Ashbourne, with its fine antiques stores, cobbled streets and variety of pubs and restaurants. Alton Towers is a short drive away, along with Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall. This wonderful cottage is the perfect retreat at all times throughout the year.
The small hamlet of Calwich lies peacefully at the southern end of the Peak District National Park, amidst stunning scenery and offers great walking and cycling opportunities. The nearby market town of Ashbourne with its eccentric street plan, narrow cobbled alleys and quaint coaching inns is something of a haven for antique hunters, offering many great stores, as well as a variety of good pubs and restaurants.

Everything was spotless. Attention to detail truly exceeded our expectations. For example the welcome pack. You can see the owners enjoy letting this out, by they the way they have maintained the cottage. Itâs a credit to them. Only reason for a 4 in comfort. We are all use to it own bed and pillows, our issue not thereâs. Everything else was top draw. Amazing.

The lodge was quite spacious, clean and fully fitted with everything you need for a short or long stay. The owners were very friendly and very accommodating. I will definitely return in the next future.

Enjoyed the hot tub and log burner every night we could, a perfect additional to a relaxing countryside retreat. Perfectly located in the middle of nowhere but still close enough to nearby towns. Mike and Wendy met us with the keys on our arrival and showed us around the property as well as showing us how to operate everything. A handy guide to the property was available to allow us to get on with our stay but they were just down the road if needed. We were devastated to have to come back home to reality but definitely looking forward to staying again!
