Situated in the stunning landscape of the Peak District National Park, Smithy Cottage is an 18th-century cottage that skillfully marries spacious accommodation for families or groups of up to six adults with the intimate charm ideal for couples.

Upon entering the cottage, guests are greeted by a welcoming vestibule, offering ample space for shoes & boots and secure wall mounts for four bicycles. Transitioning into the dining room, the warmth of a stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove awaits. The room is anchored by a large, rustic pine dining table capable of seating six, serving not only as a communal dining space but also as a cosy nook for reading, planning adventures, or simply unwinding.

The Shaker Style kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with all the necessities for a holiday stay, including a full-sized fridge/freezer, microwave, cooker/hob, dishwasher, and even an espresso/cappuccino machine, alongside a comprehensive selection of cookware. A table and chairs set by the window offer serene views of the garden and the landscape beyond, providing a picturesque backdrop for breakfast or a peaceful tea break. The utility room, extending from the kitchen, is equipped with a washing machine, tumble dryer and additional storage space, ensuring convenience for all domestic needs.
