About this property

Lying in the quiet village of Chinley is Ingledene, a pretty detached bungalow, looking picture perfect with a luscious green front and back garden and set in a fantastic location to base yourself in for walks and cycling in the Peak District and Derbyshire. Inside you will be pleasantly surprised by the spacious rooms and efficient layout, with a stunning restored blue bathroom suite, mostly suitable for a group of walkers or family looking to get out in the fresh air. You will find gorgeous antique wood furniture in the stone-walled porch room to start with, where you can store your bikes, hang up coats and kick off boots, and continue into the front sitting room, which contains a large three seater sofa placed in front of the TV and some stylish easy chairs. The flooring throughout most the property is restored wood parquet, giving it an authentic feel, and teamed with classic bright and light décor, which continues into the three bedrooms. There are two double rooms and a twin room, no matter which bedroom you choose to stay in you can start your day in style, with excellent storage space for you to make yourself right at home. It’s not often that a bathroom will be your favourite room of a property, but this one might change your mind, as featured is a beautifully restored sky blue bathroom suite, including bath, sink and basin, with a separate modern shower cubicle, which gives the place a real classic retro feel. To the back of the property is the open-plan kitchen and dining room, containing all you want to cook up a culinary masterpiece to impress the group with, or if it’s been a long day just gather around the six seater table and share out the takeaway haul! The property benefits from a small utility room containing a washing machine, and a separate basin and WC, whilst the back garden can be accessed via the patio doors coming out of the dining area, and into a gravelled space containing a large outdoor table and chairs, before heading up some steps to the raised level lawned area. There are lots of things to keep you busy in this area of the world, with Chinley itself being a popular hub for groups of amblers and cyclists, because of the proximity to Kinder Scout, which is the highest point in the national park and was the birthplace of the ‘Right to Roam’ movement in 1932, Chinley has a station on the main Manchester to Sheffield train line. Nearby is the lovely Chapel-en-le-Frith, full of history and some lovely cafes and shops, with the popular spa town of Buxton lying just a bit further south, able to offer the best of the Peak District. There is the Pavilion Gardens, with formal borders, lawns and play areas for the kids, so it will be a great afternoon well spent, or pop over to Poole’s Cavern and Country park to see the vast limestone caverns to see how crystal stalactites have formed over millions of years. If walking isn’t your first choice you might have come to the wrong place, although you might be interested to know there’s a great mountain-biking scene in Chinley, so if you prefer to be on two wheels flying down the peaks then make sure you give it a go – but it’s not for the faint-hearted! Whether going for an easy break away to stroll the peaks with friends, or you’re looking for more of a challenge, Ingledene will be the perfect place to base yourself in this spectacular part of the UK.

On the western edge of the Peak District lies the village of Chinley in a rural setting. This area is popular for keen walkers who appreciate the proximity to Kinder Scout, a national nature reserve, with easier walks available to find for a family stroll. The village has several pubs, shops and cafes so you will find everything you need in close reach. A short drive away will bring you to villages such as Chapel-en-le-Frith, Whaley Bridge, or further up to Castleton and the spa town of Buxton. Chinley is a great central location which will help you see the best of the Peak District.
