Nestled on the cusp of the Peak District National Park within the pretty village of Cromford, this attractive property sleeps eight and is ideal for families with a love of the outdoors. Elegant and spacious with quirky details throughout, your stylish accommodation is excellently located for navigating the surrounding countryside and enjoying top local attractions such as Gulliver’s Kingdom and Crich Tramway Village 4 miles away. For walkers, there are three iconic routes accessible within 18.5 miles, and when the day is done your crackling wood burner provides a soothing atmosphere for relaxing with a favourite tipple.

 

Characterised by flagstone floors, Art Deco-style features and two wood burners, the interiors of your comfortable base provide a welcoming retreat for your special holiday. The tastefully decorated kitchen is the hub of the home with a breakfast bar for simple drinks and sharing platters of deli meats and local cheese. Sip your first coffee of the day and rustle up a breakfast of kings, and of an evening, dinner is a glamorous affair in the dining room with its ample seating, roaring wood burner and high ceilings. Light the second wood burner in the lounge and sink into the sofas to watch TV, or take your nightcap up to the fabulous bathroom to have a pamper session in the freestanding bath. There are three beautifully styled bedrooms to choose from, and right next door a separate outbuilding offers a further king-size bedroom with its own en-suite shower room. Your outside space is a treat with a patio, BBQ and seating, large lawn and you’ll also find off-road parking for six cars. For the ultimate indulgence, there is a private hot tub for stargazing over glasses of something fizzy and delicious.

Lovely house very clean, tidy and well finished. Kitchen really well equipped. Beds very comfortable and all bedrooms a good size. A little bit snug down stair but that was probably because we had 5 large dogs with us. Patio well fenced which was great to be able to let the dogs out without needing leads on all the time. Bit of a shame how close thRead moree main road is but we could tell it was close it was from the information given so not a surprise. Lovely area with plenty to do around. Hide

This is a lovely house and we enjoyed our time in Cromford. However the house is marketed for 8 people and the only place 8 can sit comfortably is in the dining room. There is no hanging space in the conversion and only one wardrobe to share between 3 bedrooms in the house. Great parking for numerous cars. Kitchen is well equipped.
