Peaceful Peak District Retreat in the heart of the White Peak

Located high above the Wye Valley in the heart of the Peak District, this fully modernised 19th century mill worker's cottage is surrounded by acres of White Peak farmland.

Up here the weather is sometimes exhilaratingly wild, but so are the stunning views over Miller’s Dale. On calmer days hear larks and curlews in the surrounding fields and swallows chattering on the windowsills. Walk straight from the door into a landscape rich in wildflowers, birds, geology and history.

Self contained, self catering accommodation over 3 floors. 3 New Houses comfortably sleeps 4 and can sleep up to 6 if the sofa bed is used. Please note that if all three bedrooms are used there is a £40 per stay surcharge. Please let us know when booking.
