The town also boasts Queens Park, with its lake, walks and summer bandstand, as well as a museum and theatre.

Alternatively, the Peak District offers a magnitude of walks and cycling for those feeling active. Boundary Cottage really is in the ideal location to enjoy a fantastic break in a splendid part of the country. Shop 1 mile, pub 580 yards.

We had a fabulous time at Boundary cottage. The open fireplace was such a treat and soaking in the hot tub was fantastic. We will definitely be back!

A lovely location within beautiful countryside. Well equipped to self cater which we did. Very spacious kitchen had everything we needed. Large dining room with table for 6 and the views out of windows amazing. Well stocked bookshelf with plenty of books and lots of board games to use. Cozy lounge area with open fire, much needed as it had snowed prior to our arrival. Huge master bedroom with more views of the countryside. Second bedroom kitted out for 3 children as a single bed and bunk beds. with plenty of toys and games. Hosts, Lea and Darren very helpful and friendly but discreet. Cottage ideally placed to see the surrounding areas. We visited Chesterfield to see the Crooked Spire Church. Visited Matlock Bath. We had amazing food there at Kostas' Fish and Chips Cafe and a nice walk along the river to work the food off. All in all I would recommend this cottage for either a couple wanting a relaxing time away or for a family. The extra highlight for me was the Fabulous HOT TUB! Very nice and did not feel exposed at all in spite of previous comments. It was lovely.

Lovely quiet cottage, on outskirts of Chesterfield. Great location for exploring East Peak District. Huge garden, great for a well behaved dog. Had a few problems with heating and also the Wifi. This was frustrating! Not all the radiators downstairs would come on unless thermostat was set to 25 + degrees. We could not use some of the mod cons that were there, such as Sky, Netflix, Disney and couldn't use dvd as it was via the play station. Also the window in main bedroom leaked due to heavy rain and wind. That said, we had a great time and owners were both respectful of our privacy as well as helpful to try to fix problems.
