Perfectly positioned between the lively spa town of Matlock (0.5 miles) with a train station and the vibrant riverside village of Matlock Bath (0.5 miles) with a train station, this stylish cottage sits in one of the Peak District’s most characterful locations. Often referred to as Little Switzerland, Matlock Bath is known for its dramatic limestone cliffs, riverside walks and traditional amusements, while Matlock offers independent shops, cafés, restaurants and the beautiful Hall Leys Park. Directly opposite the property rises the striking limestone face of High Tor, a favourite viewpoint for walkers. A little further, the spectacular viewpoint at Black Rocks is just 3 miles away, while the Cromford Mills, part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site, sits 2 miles away. The charming market town of Bakewell, famous for its pudding and riverside setting, is around 8.5 miles away, and the magnificent Chatsworth House and gardens are 8.5 miles away.
The cottage itself offers a beautifully styled blend of boutique interiors and country charm, with bold colours, thoughtful touches and luxurious details throughout. Step through the front door into the welcoming entrance hall. To the left sits the cosy lounge, where deep colours, comfortable seating and local artwork create a warm and relaxing space to unwind. The electric flame-effect wood burner adds to the atmosphere. To the right of the hallway is the dining room, a characterful space filled with colour and personality. Here you’ll also find practical storage for coats and boots, along with a large wall map ready to inspire your next adventure. Continue through to the rear of the cottage, and discover a well-equipped kitchen with plenty of room for meal prep. Upstairs are two generously sized double bedrooms, each thoughtfully styled to create a comfortable and restful retreat. The bathroom is a highlight, offering a luxurious space with double sinks, a beautiful free-standing bath and a separate shower. Elegant fittings and soft tones create a spa-like feel that invites you to slow down and indulge.
Outside, the front garden has stone benches to sit and watch the world go by. The courtyard provides a private place to sit and unwind with your morning coffee, complete with a boot room with a dog shower for rinsing off muddy boots and furry friends after adventures exploring the spectacular local walks.
