About this property

Nestled amidst the rolling landscapes of Derbyshire, Billy Goats Gruff is a characterful stone cottage offering stylish interiors, peaceful surroundings and the perfect base for exploring the Peak District. Billy Goats Gruff combines timeless country charm with contemporary comfort and it is the perfect place to slow down and reconnect with family, friends and nature.

Arrive at Billy Goats Gruff and leave the everyday behind. Nestled in Lathill Dale, this enchanting Peak District retreat is surrounded by rolling countryside, open skies and the timeless beauty of rural Derbyshire.

Beyond the honey-coloured stone exterior, a warm and welcoming interior awaits. Vaulted ceilings, exposed stonework and soft, natural tones create an atmosphere of effortless relaxation, while the open plan living space invites guests to slow the pace and savour time together. Mornings begin with fresh coffee at the farmhouse table as sunlight streams through the windows, while evenings are best spent gathered beside the wood burning stove, sharing stories from the day's adventures.

At the heart of the cottage, the bespoke kitchen has been thoughtfully designed for leisurely holiday living. Whether preparing a simple breakfast before exploring the Peaks or lingering over supper with a favourite bottle of wine, every moment feels wonderfully unhurried.

When it is time to retire for the evening, beautifully appointed bedrooms offer a peaceful sanctuary. Crisp linens, calming interiors and carefully considered touches create spaces designed for deep rest and lazy lie-ins. Tucked beneath the eaves, the charming mezzanine bedroom adds to the cottage's character and sense of occasion. Due to its open design, this room is suitable for guests aged 12 years and over.

Step outside and discover your own private courtyard, an idyllic setting for al fresco breakfasts, afternoon drinks and long summer evenings beneath vast Derbyshire skies. Beyond the courtyard, rolling fields unfold across the landscape, framed by ancient dry-stone walls and far-reaching views that capture the essence of Peak District living.

From the doorstep, some of the region's most celebrated landscapes are waiting to be explored. Wander picturesque footpaths through the surrounding countryside, discover charming villages and historic houses, spend an afternoon exploring nearby Bakewell, or simply embrace the luxury of doing very little at all.

Billy Goats Gruff is more than just a place to stay. It is a place to breathe deeply, reconnect with nature and experience the simple pleasures of countryside living, all wrapped in comfort, character and understated luxury.
