The Stables - Northwood Farm

About this property

An attractive, rural hideaway for two, this appealing holiday home is perfect for anyone wishing to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of Derbyshire and Staffordshire. Situated near Ellastone, 5 miles from Ashbourne and 6 miles from the magnificent Peak District, it offers attractive, single-storey accommodation. Part of a charming complex, nestled within shared grounds that guests are welcome to explore, this one-bedroom hideaway sits in beautifully converted former stables. Step outside to follow footpaths through the scenic countryside. Venture 7 miles into picturesque Dovedale, with its famous stepping stones and limestone ravines. Spend a thrilling afternoon at Alton Towers, 4 miles away, or while away a few tranquil hours in the National Trust’s Ilam Park, 6.5 miles away. Plan a day out to impressive Chatsworth House, 25 miles from your base, or hop on your bikes to follow the 13-mile Tissington Trail, which runs between Ashbourne and Parsley Hay. The award winning Denstone Hall Farm Shop is 3 miles down the road, set in the picturesque village of Denstone beside the River Churnet. 

Tear yourselves away from the spectacular views of the Staffordshire Hills and its verdant surroundings to enter this welcoming, ground-floor abode. Discover an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner where you and your loved one or friend, and even a canine companion, can relax together in comfort after your exciting excursions. Open the French doors on bright, sunny days so you can step outside whenever you wish and bring in the fresh country air. Settle on the soft seating to watch the Smart TV then prepare homecooked meals in the kitchen area. This modern space has been carefully designed to include everything you might need to assist you in your catering during your stay. When you are ready to retire for the night, the inviting bedroom with super-king-size bed, which also has a glass door to the outside space, can be found down the corridor. There is also a chic shower room, which has been finished in contemporary grey tiles and features a large, wet-room-style shower.

Bask in the sunshine out on your private patio as you take in the undulating views. Dine outside under the stars of fine evenings and make the most of the acres of shared grounds you have access to here to follow footpaths through the trees and stroll beside the stream.
