Sitting in the charming village of Dobcross, this delightful cottage is perfectly placed for exploring the stunning landscapes of Saddleworth and the Peak District National Park. Surrounded by rolling countryside, picturesque canals and scenic walking routes, the area is a haven for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers. Saddleworth’s attractive villages, including Uppermill (1 mile), Delph and Diggle (both 2 miles), offer independent shops, welcoming pubs and cosy cafés, while the nearby Pennine hills provide breathtaking views and endless outdoor adventures. Venture a little further to Dove Stone Reservoir (4 miles), one of the area's most popular beauty spots, or explore the wider Peak District National Park from around 10 miles away. Other nearby attractions include the Saddleworth Museum (1 mile), the historic Huddersfield Narrow Canal and the fascinating Standedge Tunnel (3 miles).
Full of charm and character, this delightful cottage showcases exposed beams, original features and a warm, welcoming atmosphere throughout. From the parking area, a steep path with several steps leads to the cottage entrance. Care should be taken, particularly during the winter months when the path may become slippery. Step into the useful entrance porch, ideal for storing muddy boots and wet coats after a day exploring the surrounding countryside. From here, you'll find the well-equipped kitchen/diner, complete with an Aga and Aga Companion, creating a wonderful heart of the home. The cosy lounge offers comfortable seating, a beautiful decorative fireplace and lovely views across the garden. Upstairs, there are two equally inviting double bedrooms. One features a freestanding roll-top bath and en-suite WC, while the other is served by a spacious shower room with a large walk-in shower.
Outside, the beautiful garden is surrounded by woodland and countryside, creating a peaceful setting to relax and unwind. A patio with outdoor furniture and a BBQ provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining, while the wood-fired hot tub offers a wonderfully relaxing experience.
