Fabulous cottage.
Fabulous cottage. Well equipped, the log burner a real treat for warm and cosy evenings. Owners large field directly across from the cottage to exercise the dog. Good walk to Lincacre Reservoir down the farm track directly behind the cottages. Owners very welcoming. Peacock Inn walking distance and dog friendly (bar only, but bar area is large). Ideally located to visit and admire the Derbyshire Dales scenery.
