Property code: OC-D29407

Escape to this idyllic shepherd's hut, situated in the picturesque limestone village of Foolow, in the heart of the Peak District. Only 2 miles away is the historic village of Eyam. Here, you will find a village shop, pub and several quaint tearooms to try. A little further afield is the town of Bakewell (6.5 miles), where you can visit the many independent shops, browse the markets and sample its unique and delicious pudding. For the history enthusiasts, visit Haddon Hall (8.5 miles), a fantastically preserved medieval manor house. Keen walkers and cyclists will enjoy the abundance of footpaths and trails nearby, including the Monsal Trail, which can be accessed at Bakewell (6.5 miles) and follows a disused railway line that was closed in the late 1960s.

Step into the enchanting atmosphere of this shepherd’s hut, where relaxation awaits. Sink into the plush comfort of the double sofa, positioned in front of the inviting wood burner, which casts a warm glow. At night, retreat to the double bed, adorned with soft cotton sheets and a deep mattress, offering the perfect spot to unwind after a wonderful day. This is also the perfect spot for diving into that unread book or enjoying a film on the TV. The convenience of a modern en-suite WC and thermostatic shower ensures a refreshing experience. Indulge your culinary desires in the well-equipped kitchen, featuring a microwave, double hob, kettle, and toaster, where you can rustle up a delightful feast.

Outside, you can bask in the sunshine and relish in the pleasure of cooking up a BBQ in the secluded walled private garden area, or soak in the hot tub in its own private area at the side of the hut.

Digby's Hut is a wonderful, peaceful retreat which was an absolute joy to stay in. Impeccably decorated and maintained, it was a perfect getaway for 2 people who wanted to relax and get away from the real world. The wood fired hot tub is an absolute gem. We may need to return every year!
