Nuthatch Cottage is a superb cottage providing really classy accommodation. Its beamed ceilings, stone flagged floors, glowing log burning stove, luxurious lounge and quality dining kitchen combine with beautiful bedrooms and fantastic en-suite bathrooms. The cottage is one of a group of three created from the former coach house to Eccles House, a lovely Georgian Mansion situated at the end of a quiet country lane with super views across the valley and a cauldron of Peak District hills as a magnificent backdrop.

Get up early and spot the sleek Nuthatches and other birds that live in the House's extensive grounds and woodland. Have breakfast al fresco before exploring the numerous local walks. A wander down into the valley will get you to the bustling village with its local shops and great pubs. This is an absolutely brilliant holiday location within easy reach of Derbyshire's myriad of visitor attractions.

For exciting days out how about a trip to Castleton's Blue John caverns, Peveril's  castle, Bakewell's famous Monday market, Buxton's exciting go-carts, Gt Hucklow's gliders, Peak Rail's steam trains or Chatsworth House with its gardens, farmyard and adventure playground.

Lovely set up, three cottages in a courtyard with plenty of free parking. The cottage was clean and well equipped, the beds comfortable. Fresh farm eggs and a bottle of Red left for our enjoyment. Although rural the walk into nearby Chinley takes less than 15 minutes, a torch is handy if going out after dark, and wear something reflective, not muchRead more traffic as only a single track but safety comes first. Would definitely recommend, absolutely beautiful area with plenty to see and do even if you're not much of a walker. Hide

I can't speak highly enough of The Nuthatch. Easy booking, and lovely hosts who couldn't have been more accommodating. A beautiful, warm and cosy cottage which was sparkling clean and very well equipped. Well located for all the Peak District attractions, and Manchester. If we're up that way, I'd definitely choose to stay at The Nuthatch again.

Since acquiring the house and barRead morens the owners have obviously worked hard to restore and develop the site. Great location for visiting the high peak. Hide
