Luxury Self-Catering Cottage near Ashbourne

The master bedroom is a sublime and stylish sanctuary in which to relax. It has stunning views of the unspoilt village of Kirk Ireton and the surrounding Derbyshire countryside.

The centrepiece of this enchanting room is the magnificent, voluptuous six-foot wide four-poster bed. Created with original reclaimed timbers from the old lace market in Nottingham, and handcrafted in the nearby town of Matlock. It is simply stunning and high enough to need steps to help our guests climb in. Luxurious fabrics in the room are combined with a solid oak floor, atmospheric lighting, original paintings and thoughtful accessories. A warm and welcoming haven of tranquillity.

Adjoining the master bedrooms is the beautiful ensuite bathroom. With a deep double bath, warm heated floor and huge bespoke shower cube. Fluffy towels, robes, slippers, soaps and scents await to help you relax and soak away the cares of a hectic life.

The French windows in the living room lead directly onto the private terrace at the back of the cottage. With its gorgeous driftwood tables and seats, it seems to have been taken straight out of a fairy tale.
Wrap yourself in one of the warm fluffy bathrobes in the downstairs wet room. Step onto the sunken patio area and the inviting Canadian Spa Hot Tub. The hot bubbling water waiting to help you soak away the stresses and strains of modern living.

Here you will also find “The Den”. A warm and cosy Scandinavian-style cabin, often used as a handy changing room for the tub, but so much more. With games, magazines and plenty of space to relax.
The tiny and welcoming nearby shop is happy to order meat from the local farm shop (a traditional working farm), perfect for cooking on the hand-crafted barbecue. The kitchen door opens onto the terrace so it’s easy to nip inside for extra ketchup!

The beautiful open front garden, with its low stone wall, beautiful plants, and immaculate lawn, commands excellent views of Kirk Ireton. The cottage has private parking, although the rather infrequent village bus stop is very close by for those eager to leave the car behind. Alternatively, you can sit on the garden bench and watch village life unfold. If you feel like a break from the self-catering aspect of your stay, the uniquely famous 17th Century pub ‘The Barley Mow‘ is nearby, just twenty yards down the hill.
