1 Bed Cottage in Alderwasley

About this property

A lovely renovated dog-friendly cottage in stunning countryside just 6 miles from Belper, a market town nestling in the Derwent Valley World Heritage Corridor. The perfect base for a romantic weekend away for two and within easy reach of the Peak District National Park, the cosy retreat features an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, a spacious en-suite double bedroom and an enclosed courtyard garden.

The two-storey stone cottage stands just off a quiet country road that meanders its way through the gently undulating countryside between Belper and Matlock. Brimming with practical and bespoke features, the cosy interior's stylish soft furnishings and striking flooring bathe in natural light throughout the day. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner dominates the ground floor, the large sofa at its centre facing an inviting wood burner while a kitchen and a fold-away table and chairs are only a few paw prints behind. The en-suite double bedroom upstairs features an impressive bespoke headboard, skylights and ample storage space. The enclosed courtyard garden at the side of the cottage comprises a patio area with table and seating, with plenty of room for diners on two and four legs.

The lanes surrounding the cottage are home to quiet country pubs and the area is blessed with numerous footpaths that take in absorbing views. The High Peak Trail and Carsington Water (both within 4 miles) are a haven for walkers and cyclists, and for those wanting to take things slower can slip into quaint towns including Wirksworth and Belper (both within 6 miles), home to an impressive array of shops, pubs and eateries. The Derwent Valley World Heritage Corridor, like the Peak District National Park (4.5 miles) is a showcase of the region's cultural, historical and natural jewels.
