A super little cottage recently credited with a VisitEngland Gold Award and lovingly created out of a mellow stone barn nestling under the dramatic Hucklow Edge.
If you’re looking for a luxurious little cottage in the heart of the Peak District, then Curlew is the perfect place for you. Set under Hucklow Edge, the owner’s attention to detail ripples throughout the property and this is reflected by the recent VisitEngland Gold Award the cottage has received. The well decorated lounge is spacious yet cosy with a glowing wood-burning stove and ceiling beams. Set in the sleepy hamlet of Windmill, Curlew is a wonderful location to be the base for exploring the local areas, such as Chatsworth House, Bakewell and Buxton.
Explore the nearby lanes and villages, such as Eyam which became famous after the Black Death of 1665 and 1666. Once you’ve returned from your day out, settle down for the evening by the fire with a glass of wine, or continue soaking up the surroundings and head a local village pub. When it’s time for bed, the comfortable bedroom will allow you to sleep well and become refreshed to do it all again the next day. The perfect little getaway.

Mrs Steggles
The cottage is perfect for a getaway in this part of the Peak District for a couple who want a cosy, comfortable base for walking or visiting attractions in the area. It has everything you need for a few days away, including a very comfortable bed and well equipped kitchen. Lots of suggestions for where to eat and suitable walks are a great help to planning your holiday and the owners are also very happy to offer help and advice about the local area.

Comfortable cottage with helpful owners set in a beautiful part of Derbyshire.
Mrs Malthouse
If you want a small cottage for 2 max nowhere in particular surrounded by the Derbyshire Dales, this is the cottage for you. We had horrid weather (it was December!) but still had to walk out with the dog. Cottage was comfortable but has electric storage heaters with a wood burner for chilly evenings. This might not suit everyone.
