About this property

Ashbourne 5 miles. Settled into the village of Hulland Ward, near Ashbourne, Valley view is a lovely Peak District getaway for a family or friends. Enter into this lovely eighteenth century cottage and hang up your coats in the cloakroom, before unpacking into this tastefully renovated cottage. Settle down with a good book in the sitting area, where an original inglenook woodburning stove warms your feet from a bare brick fireplace. Pass the quirky bookcase door, which opens up into the under-stairs storage, and reach a beautiful dining room, retaining the original bare brick fireplace and wooden beams, now housing an electric fire stove to give your dining experience a hint of historic ambience. When mealtimes call, find yourself in a lovely spacious kitchen and with the assistance of the home-from-home amenities, cook a heart-warming meal as the handy utility takes care of all of your muddy clothes. As the evening wears on, three tastefully-furnished bedrooms offer a space for you to snuggle up for the night, including a super-king-size zip/link that can be set up as a twin on request, a king size and a ground-floor double serviced by a ground-floor wet room, and there is also a bathroom with the option of a refreshing shower or a soak amongst the bubbles in the free-standing bath. Much of the flooring throughout the ground-floor is laminate, making this property pet-friendly, and there is also the addition of a dog washing station in the outhouse! Pets can also enjoy the enclosed lawn, whilst guests can make the most of the patio, where you can relax in the sunshine with a glass of your favourite beverage. Hulland Ward is a village that rests near the Peak District with a local shop and pub. For more convenience stores, eateries and independent shops, head over to Ashbourne, where there is a selection of antique stores, as well as historic architecture, or there is the option of heading over to Carsington where guests can hire bikes or try out watersports on Carsington Water. There are also the options of the villages of Matlock, Wirksworth and Belper. The Peak District National Park is a must visit for guests, supplying you with a wealth of fantastic walks, including those to Thor’s Cave, the ruins of Throwley Old Hall and Robin Hood’s Stride. Further from the property you can enjoy an action-packed day at Alton Towers or explore the wildlife at Matlock Bath Aquarium and arcade. All of this and more with a stay at Valley View.

Ashbourne, settled into the picturesque southernmost point of the Peak District, is the epitome of an English market town, housing a town centre boasting winding cobblestone lanes, tasty eateries, pubs, convenience shops and independent stores to browse at your leisure, so why not enjoy a heart-warming meal out with the family? The town has many Georgian buildings and is a great spot for antique hunters. The Dove and Manifold Valleys are nearby for those who prefer more active hobbies, while Alton Towers, with its thrilling array of rides, is only a short drive away for thrill seekers. The Peak District is a fantastic location with a great number of scenic walks and historic sites for you to explore. Enjoy a quaint countryside getaway with a stay at Ashbourne.

    ..we couldn't fault it ! Beautifully presented and maintained with A* cleanliness. Made to feel welcome as soon as we entered the cottage both humans and dogs...thank you for the lovely welcome basket for us and for including the Fourpaws in all your efforts to make our holiday as restful and stress free as you have ! Love the super king bed....best sleep for a long time ! The food at The Nag's Head was beautiful and we were made to feel very welcome. Carsington Water has been a favourite of ours for many years along with many of the surrounding villages which hold lovely memories ! Thank you Karen and Andy for everything... we would love to come back ! Christine & Steve Rowley-Corbett, Murphy & Quinn (Springer Spaniels)

    I cannot fault the cottage. It is spotless and has everything you need. The kitchen is well stocked and the beds are really comfortable. The bathrooms are lovely and it was so nice to sit in the lounge with a real fire after a day out. It is dog friendly and the owners even left bedding, blankets and bowels for the dog. The garden is secure and there is a good driveway for the car. We also received a really nice welcome pack when we arrived. It is in a great location - easy reach of Matlock, Ashbourne, Derby and National Trust properties. Carsington Waters is a beautiful walk and is only 10 minutes away. There is also a good pub next door. The road caused us no issues and we didn't even notice it once in the house. Thank you for a great break and we would definitely book again.

    The cottage itself has been very well looked after. It is very clean and has everything you need. It is a great base to use if you want to explore more of Derbyshire. The dog washing barn is a brilliant addition and thank god we are able to use it!! Thank you for having us and we hope to come back soon.
