The property

An immaculate, detached, limestone built cottage, offering single-storey accommodation in the centre of the village of Biggin in the Peak District, surrounded by beautiful countryside. The cottage is tastefully decorated throughout and provides spacious living areas to relax in, as you plan your activities for the days ahead. This property may be suitable for those with limited mobility, with a superb, large bathroom which benefits from a walk-in shower area and underfloor heating. The spacious, light and airy lounge boasts feature windows with views over the garden and the countryside beyond; the beautiful furnishings include two, two seater leather sofas and armchairs. Outside is a third of an acre of enclosed garden to enjoy, with a south-facing sheltered patio with furniture and a BBQ, perfect for enjoying an evening meal or drink on a summer’s evening. The tiny village of Biggin is situated on the edge of the Dove Valley, meaning there are wonderful walks from the doorstep and cycling trails directly accessible from the village, while the lovely village church and pub allow you to soak up the local Derbyshire atmosphere. Explore the Peak District National Park and Dovedale, enjoy walking and cycling on the Tissington or High Peak Trail, or why not catch a bus in the village and spend a day visiting the market towns of Ashbourne, Buxton or Bakewell? With Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and the spectacular Neo-classical Kedleston Hall to discover, together with the popular Alton Towers also within easy reach, you'll want to return to this Peak District cottage time and again!
