About this property

Set on the edge of the Peak District National Park, with spectacular views across a patchwork of verdant fields over to Riber Castle in Matlock, is this lovely barn conversion. Located in the Ashover area, close to Chatsworth and Tansley, this cottage offers a memorable getaway for families, couples and friends. The kitchen plays host to a Rangemaster cooker, taking centre stage, with a traditional style of units integrated alongside. Cook up a storm in this spacious room and feast together at the dining table. And if you don't fancy cooking, the tea rooms next door offers breakfast and lunches, with food all day long, especially in the summer months! Fully relax in the sitting room, by the glow of the gas imitation woodburner and simply enjoy a pleasant setup. Original features are exposed throughout this charming home for a character fell, and there is even a sunny conservatory, where you can enjoy a quiet read. Upstairs, the four poster bed, decorated with intricate, lace curtains, stands boldly in the first bedroom, accompanied by another spacious double room and a tiled bathroom with a modern finish. There is even a travel cot available for babes-in-arms! The village of Ashover boasts several good pubs to choose from, whilst the county town of Matlock offers a variety of other amenities. Close by is Matlock Farm Park, a fantastic day out with the kids, and an opportunity to get out in the fresh air and tranquility of the countryside. Pet the animals, befriend a meerkat and ride a go-kart! Leys Hall Park provides a lovely setting for a host of recreational activities such as bowls, tennis and boating. For those who love being outdoors, follow the traffic free High Peak Cycle Trail and explore a vast region of the Peak District National Park. The delightful towns of Bakewell and Buxton offer an array of attractions to discover, for a wonderful day out with the whole family! A charming retreat to enjoy the year-round!

The rural village of Ashover is situated in the Amber Valley, just five miles from Matlock, with several good pubs. The county town of Matlock offers a host of eating places, shops and a museum, whilst at the heart of the town, Leys Hall Park provides bowls, tennis and boating.
