The Stable

About this property

The Stable is an idyllic farm stay nestled on a working farm in the charming village of Hatton, Derbyshire, designed especially for couples seeking a romantic rural escape. With designated parking for two, this delightful retreat offers the perfect base to explore the stunning Derbyshire countryside, while also providing all the comforts for an intimate and relaxing stay. Step into this inviting, single-storey hideaway and be welcomed by a spacious, open-plan living area tailored to your needs. The well-equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare your favourite meals together, while the adjoining dining area, featuring a breakfast bar with seating for two, sets the scene for leisurely breakfasts or candlelit dinners. The inviting sitting room, complete with a Smart TV, is the perfect spot to snuggle up after a day of exploring, whether you want to watch a movie, binge a favourite show, or simply enjoy each other's company. At the heart of The Stable is the king-size bedroom, elegantly decorated to create a peaceful sanctuary for restful nights. With its own TV for added convenience, you can wake up slowly, enjoying a lazy morning before stepping into the sleek shower room, complete with a walk-in shower. Outside, the magic truly begins. The enclosed rear patio is where you’ll find the highlight of your stay: the bubbling hot tub. Imagine unwinding together after a day of adventure, soaking under the stars, and making memories that will last long after your getaway. This private outdoor space is ideal for sipping drinks as the sun sets or indulging in a tranquil soak whenever the mood strikes. Beyond the peaceful farm setting, there are plenty of opportunities to explore the surrounding area. While you're in the area, why not take a drive to the fantastic adventure park of Alton Towers? Offering so many exciting and thrilling roller coaster rides, you'll struggle to fit them all into one trip! Discover the beautifully landscaped Markeaton Park, perfect for a romantic picnic by the lake or a gentle stroll through its craft village. Visit the vibrant Mercia Marina, where boutique shops and waterside dining await, or immerse yourselves in history at Kedleston Hall, a nearby National Trust gem. For something a little different, the National Forest Adventure Farm offers outdoor fun, while culture lovers can explore the rich collections at Derby Museum and Art Gallery. Don’t miss a visit to Derby Cathedral, a masterpiece of Gothic Revival architecture or Tutbury Castle. For moments of calm, the Thistley Place Meadow nature reserve offers serene walks amidst a rich tapestry of local wildlife. As the day draws to a close, return to The Stable and sink into the hot tub beneath a starlit sky, letting the serenity of the countryside wash over you. The Stable is more than just a holiday stay, it’s the perfect setting for a romantic Derbyshire getaway that will leave you relaxed, refreshed, and reconnected.

Hilton, Shandwick and Balintore are the three villages of the Easter Ross Seaboard, often collectively referred to simply as "Seaboard". They blend into one another with Hilton the furthest north of the three, and home to The Hilton of Cadboll Standing Stone, a superb replica of the original Pictish stone which now resides in the National Museum of Scotland. Balintore has a shop, a pub, and a good restaurant. A couple of miles inland is Fearn Abbey, founded in 1238, while on the hillside above Shandwick, the most southerly of the Seaboard Villages, is the famous Shandwick Stone dating back to the years around 780 AD. Visit the famous Glenmorangie whisky distillery, go dolphin spotting, play a round on one of the many good golf courses or explore the area's pictish stones. Off the beaten tourist track, this coastline, with its beaches and fishing villages, makes the ideal seaside holiday for the whole family.
