2 Bedroom Cottage in Baslow
A lovely, stone detached Baslow cottage, handily located next to the village shop and Post Office in this pretty village, in the Peak District National Park. Just a short walk from an entrance to the magnificent Chatsworth Estate, this cottage is a delightfully cosy property, lovingly renovated to retain a host of original features, including original beams and staircases, ornamental fireplaces and a Victorian-style freestanding bath. The accommodation is full of immense warmth and character, and with its cosy sitting room with woodburner-effect fire, fantastic kitchen and beautiful bedrooms, the property seamlessly combines old world charm with modern conveniences. Beautiful walks can be enjoyed from the doorstep, whilst the village provides an array of lovely pubs, a Michelin star restaurant and breathtaking countryside. Visit nearby Bakewell with its regular farmers' markets or explore the delights of Chatsworth House. Character, charm and an ideal location - this cottage makes a perfect Peak District holiday base.
The village of Baslow lies at the north end of stately Chatsworth House - home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire. The village has many unusual and picturesque features including a triple-arched river bridge guarded by a toll house whose doorway is only 3 1/2 feet high! Baslow offers a range of village amenities including shops, pubs and restaurants. Close by is Bakewell, the capital of the Peak District, and home of the famous Bakewell pudding (definitely not tart!), still made locally to an old and secret recipe. Bakewell is at the scenic heart of the Peak District, and with Alton Towers also within easy touring distance, there is plenty for the whole family to enjoy.
