About this property
Alexandra Retreat, a delightful house nestled in the town of Sutton-In-Ashfield, is just a short drive to the Peak District National Park. Perfect for families, two couples or friends seeking an escape with plenty of closeby amenities, this abode offers off-road parking and an enclosed garden with a barbecue. Park the cars outside this home, then make your way to the front door. Upon entering, head to the stylish, contemporary and spacious kitchen. Heat up the hob and oven, or pop a snack in the microwave to enjoy at the breakfast bar seating. For family feasts, pull out a chair at the large dining table in the dining room and tuck into your delicious meal, whilst planning the adventures ahead. After plates are cleared, feel the carpet beneath your feet in the sitting room and pick between a loveseat set within the bay window or a corner sofa, with space to lounge with your feet up. Snuggle up as you flick on the Smart TV for a cushy movie night. Ascend the stairs in the evening to soak in the bath before bed, or opt for a shower with the towel rail warming up your nightwear. There are two bedrooms to choose from: a spacious king-size on and a double. In the morning, enjoy some quiet time in the conservatory with ample seating to enjoy a book. Head out to the garden to enjoy a brew in the morning, or fire up the barbecue in the afternoon.
Admire the advanced architecture at Hardwick Hall, a 16th-century country house. Harry Potter fans can snap a picture at Lucious Malfoy's mansion to show their friends, roam through the formal gardens and view the collection of tapestries here. Pack your provisions and take a drive to Peak District National Park, map out your hiking trails, see the sheep grazing in the fields, admire the stunning views and moorland, and then refuel at a pub to keep you going. Visit Creswell Crags, an archaeological site containing a museum in a limestone gorge, look out for the cave art, take a guided tour to learn more about the exhibits, and mark your visit with a trip to the gift shop. After a day of trekking through the hills of the Peak District, return to Alexandra Retreat to unwind.
Nestled in Nottinghamshire rests the bustling market town of Sutton-in-Ashfield, which is just on the outskirts of the Derbyshire border. Historically, the area was a Saxon settlement and the first date of worship dates to 1170 in Normal times. For outdoor adventurers, there is Kings Mill reservoir, great for rambling amongst nature as well as sailing the water. There is Idlewells shopping centre, which hosts an indoor market and high street retailers for those seeking a shopping spree. A great range of pubs can also be found in the heart of the town, as well as independent cafes. The historical town of Mansfield is just a short car journey away, which once the chief town to Sherwood Forest and is now home to a range of eateries and a local museum. Why not visit Hardwick Hall for a trip back in time at the stately Elizabethan home? Here you can marvel at the interior and landscaped gardens.
