About this property
Springfield is an absolutely beautiful cottage that has been totally refurbished to create a fantastic interior. This is ultimate luxury with its beautiful decor and furnishings, lovely pictures and quality fixtures throughout its extensive accommodation. There is a superb lounge with sumptuous sofas gathered around a log burning stove, bespoke dining kitchen, sunny conservatory, three superb bedrooms, three bathrooms and even a games room with table tennis and darts.
Springfield is set in the peace and quiet of the Peak District countryside, in a little hamlet called Aldwark. which is surrounded by sheep speckled fields, a patchwork of dry-stone walls, lots of craggy outcrops and big sky horizons. Yet civilisation is just a short drive away with nearby Brassington village and its pubs or the little historic town of Wirksworth with its market square, restaurants, cafes, pubs, heritage railway and even the Northern Lights cinema.
You might fancy setting out across the Peaks along the nearby High Peak Trail. Carsington Water with its water sports, cycle hire, birdwatching, children’s playground and visitor centre might also beckon. If you have even wider horizons, there is Matlock Bath with its cable cars and riverside prom, the National Tramway Museum, magnificent Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall and the mellow market town of Bakewell famed for its Bakewell Puddings.
One dog is welcome at Springfield at no additional charge.
