Sleeping eight people across four bedrooms, and with flexible sleeping arrangements made up to suit your party’s needs, this stylish stone property can be a friends’ rural retreat or a large family’s countryside home-away-from-home. Set out on walks together, heading north along the canal footpath to Cromford Mills (1.5 miles) and the shops and inns of Cromford village (2 miles), or stroll south to explore Leawood Pump House and the Derwentside Nature Reserve, both only 0.5 miles from your door. The house’s outside shower block and drying room are perfect for when you return, and a soak in the hot tub will leave you refreshed and ready to strike out again tomorrow.

Full of spacious, light-filled rooms, the farmhouse is ideal for spending quality time with your family and friends. Cook up a storm in the kitchen with its spectacular AGA and get everyone helping to prepare ingredients on the worktop and setting the table through in the conservatory/diner. There’s even more storage in the handy utility room just off the kitchen, so you can stock up and stay in. Sit down to eat, with views of the garden, and make a toast to your holiday together. You have a choice of evening entertainment, and there’s something to suit all tastes and ages with more than enough space to spread out. Outside, the games room boasts a pool table, table football, and a darts board for friendly competition. Watch SkyTV or a film in the lounge, with the wood burner lit for a cosy night on the sofa, or stargaze from the hot tub to unwind before bed. Claim one of the pretty bedrooms, picking from the one on the ground floor or the three upstairs, and in the morning enjoy a leisurely start to the day. There are four bathrooms, with either a shower or bath, so there’ll be no queueing, and you can take brunch onto the patio before heading out.
