Beautifully and carefully decorated cottage with all facilities. It is set in a great location for reaching many of the Peak District's attractions. Freshly laid out enclosed garden ideal for sitting out and safe for dogs. The private Hot Tub is a great bonus. The Shalimar Bar and Resteraunt is 200yds away, perfect for First or Last meal. The Read morePeak Steam Railway is also 200yds away and makes for an ideal day out in Matlock. Close by the railway are various dog walking trails and a riverside meadow. We had a great time. Hide
