Property code: OC-DCTCO

An appealing Derbyshire property, which is perfect for a couple, this inviting retreat nestles at the heart of the magnificent Peak District National Park. Sleeping two guests, and offering dog-friendly accommodation, the one-bedroom, stone cottage is tucket away in the tranquil and picturesque village of Elton, 5.5 miles from Matlock. Head out from here to explore your surroundings, including Robin Hood’s Stride, a rock formation with a cave, which sits on the Limestone Way, 1.5 miles away, and Stanton Moor, 3 miles away, a beautiful area of upland with far-reaching views. Venture into Matlock to browse in independent shops and dine out or visit Bakewell, 6 miles away, with its array of colourful outlets and places to taste the town’s famous pudding.

Step into this traditional little cottage to find everything you need for a peaceful stay. The lounge, with its stone floor, has a wood burner set into a stone fireplace that you can light on chilly days as you watch TV together on the comfortable seating. There is a dining room where you can sit down to the delicious dinners for two you have prepared through in the compact yet ultra-modern kitchen. Adjoining the kitchen is a sunny conservatory, where you can also dine in warmer weather or simply relax and look out onto the garden. Stairs from the kitchen lead up to the first floor with a double bedroom with garden views, an adjoining dressing room with a single futon chair/bed and a family bathroom.

The charming, walled courtyard garden is a lovely place to relax together or to enjoy a cup of tea whenever the weather is warm.

The Cottage at Elton was very comfortable with a cosy very efficient wood burner in the lounge,a modern bathroom, well equipped modern kitchen and enclosed garden, ideal for our dog. The TV was very modern,(p'haps to modern for luddites like us!!) The cottage was near to an excellenr community shop in the next village,Winster,Winster also has an eRead morexcellent pub,The Miners Standard which was very welcoming to dogs and the food was very varied and interesting. The cottage was in easy walking distance of walks like Stanton Moor or the long distance footpath near Robin Hoods Stride,nearby; also local attractiond like Matlock and Cromford are easily accessible from the cottage Hide

Loved our stay here, cosy, clean and well presented cottage. It had everything we needed and more. After exploring near by areas and towns we could come back and unwind in-front of the log fire! Lots of info of nearby area provided in the information pack left by hosts that was really helpful. Thank you

Great location for some excellent trails. Only downside was it said pet friendly but dogs were not allowed upstairs so a stair gate would have benefited. Also could have benefited with an outside hose to clean pets and boots. Internet was a bit slow which cause tv to lag at times but was signed up to prime so lots of choice.

This was a lovely cottage in a quiet town in the Peak District with beautiful walks nearby. If you have strong allergies or bay fever, just know its an old cottage near some farms so bring your allergy meds but the cottage was clean with great amenities.
