Pearson's But and Ben is an utterly wonderful holiday retreat, nestled in a picturesque valley on the edge of the Peak District National Park. It has been interior designed with superb attention to detail in its furnishings, decor, colours and textures - it just oozes quality throughout its spacious accommodation. With two en suite king size bedrooms, the property is ideal for two couples holidaying together but also welcomes families.
Surrounded by lovely countryside with fantastic views down the valley to the hills beyond, “Pearson’s” is converted from a former farm building, attached to but totally private from the adjacent farmhouse. At lambing time, there will be sheep and lambs in the barns to the rear. The cottage has a lovely rural setting yet the charming town of Wirksworth is just five minutes' drive away with its heritage trail and railway, range of local shops, pubs, restaurants and even a small cinema. The High Peak Trail, which is great for walkers and cyclists, passes close by and Carsington Water with its water sports, cycle trails and birdwatching is just over the hill.
There are also lots of other Peak District attractions in the surrounding hills. Matlock Bath with its cable cars and riverside prom is not to be missed. Magnificent Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are just up the Derwent Valley. Venture beyond famous Bakewell and you are in the real Peaks with sparkling rivers, picturesque villages, incredible views from the grit stone edges and country pubs galore.
