About this property
A superb cottage in brilliant Belper within the UNESCO World Heritage Corridor.
A traditional cottage outside with a fully modernised interior, Bobbin Cottage brings the two styles together perfectly with the cobbled street in front and the ultra-modern kitchen inside. The recent refurbishment has been completed to a very high standard and has been used to highlight some of the cottage's original assets including the brick fireplace with wood burning stove and also the feature walls of naked brick in two of the bedrooms upstairs.
Just a hop, skip and a jump away is the bustling centre of Belper where you will find an assortment of independent stores, little tea rooms, pubs and a variety of eateries (including Italian, Chinese and fish and chips). There is even a Ritz cinema where you can sip wine while watching the latest blockbuster. All of this adds to the charm of this Amber Valley town, a winner of the Great British High Street Award!

Bobbin Cottage - a delightful place to stay with stylish interiors and a smart, well equipped kitchen. This is an old (mill)workers cottage on a pretty town lane with original cobbles, and is a good choice if you appreciate heritage buildings. It has been sensitively updated to a very high standard, and it also has a lovely, peaceful, private, garden. The bathroom is modern and sparkling clean, whilst the bedrooms are comfortable and well furnished. Very close to the railway station too. Parking can be a bit on the snug side…

We had a brilliant week at Bobbin Cottage! It’s beautifully decorated and we loved all the little touches. A great location in central Belper, but very quiet. We’d definitely come back!

Really lovely cottage with everything we needed in a beautiful part of the country near to all facilities and to the countryside. The owners were extremely helpful when we got locked out one night. Everything in the cottage was spotless and we appreciated the wine and biscuits.
