The beautiful town of Bakewell, famous for its puddings and pies, is 4.5 miles away where, in quaint lanes, there are superb restaurants and pubs, interesting, independent shops, a golf course and a superb Monday market. The popular historic houses of Chatsworth and Haddon Hall are just the other side of Bakewell.
Walkers have a huge choice of Derbyshire Dales and moorlands to choose from and cyclists have many trails, including the Tissington trail which passes just outside the village and where bicycles may be hired.

About the host
Hosted by Ruth Yarwood
We have lived in Monyash since 2002 and prior to that, for 7 years, just a couple of miles away in the village of Chelmorton We purchased the cottage , together with our own home, Mere Croft (adjacent) in 2013. The timing falling fortuitously with an opportunity for me to leave my employment after 25 years. So we took the plunge !
Since that time we have enjoyed welcoming visitors to the Coach House throughout the year and look forward to seeing many of our guests returning for second, third or even their tenth visit!

Why they chose this property
The cottage offers peace and quiet yet is close to a wide variety of Peak District and Derbyshire Dales attractions. Once here however, for the start of many cycling and walking routes there is no need to stray further than the cottage front door. The cottage is in the heart of Monyash village so just a short stroll to the single village pub and cafe both popular with locals and visitors alike, for food or just drinks and with the village playground located just behind.
As owners we live just across the drive. We are always respectful of visitors' privacy yet on hand for advice , suggestions or just a friendly chat.
