About this property

This semi-detached cottage is attached to the owner’s home in the delightful Derbyshire village of Brassington. Situated just a couple of miles from Carsington Water, this wonderful cottage is ideal for a romantic retreat in the Peak District National Park. Step through the front door into the well-equipped open plan living area with a compact kitchen and a comfy sitting area, where you can kick back and relax after a day out and about. Head up the beautifully-painted staircase to the charming double bedroom in the eaves of the cottage, which features a window offering magnificent views across the fields. Outside the cottage is a small seating area, and with shared use of the owner’s garden, you can enjoy a morning coffee as you plan the day’s excursions. The village of Brassington boasts a couple of friendly pubs serving food. Just over two miles away is Carsington Water where you can try out a range of watersports, and of course the whole area is a walker’s paradise with fantastic walking and cycling trails all around, including the High Peak Trail, a 17 mile bridleway which runs from Dowlow to Cromford. Whether you are after an action-packed adventure, or a peaceful retreat in the country, this lovely cottage is bound to provide a holiday to remember.

Brassington is a tranquil, unspoiled conservation village on the outskirts of the Peak District National Park. Brassington has cottages dating back to the 17th and 18th Centuries and is a traditional limestone village. It has two public houses, both of which serve good food, and the bustling town of Matlock is just eight miles away for a wider range of shops and other amenities. Carsington Water is only two miles' distance and offers many outdoor pursuits such as sailing, boating, windsurfing and cycling.
