About this property
Herbal Cottage is a delightful old stone cottage, part of the village’s amazing history but now totally renovated to create a superb holiday retreat. There is a cosy lounge, a well-fitted dining kitchen, a contemporary ground floor bathroom, three well presented bedrooms and a first floor cloakroom/WC.
Set in the ‘picture postcard’ village of Eyam, it is just a wander down the lane to the local stores, café, tea rooms and post office. Eyam Hall’s ‘Courtyard’ with its bar, café, restaurant and craft centre is also worth a visit, as is the local museum dedicated to the heroism of the villagers during the plague of 1666. Climb to the top of Eyam Edge for breath-taking Peak District views.
Deep in the Peak District National Park, there are few better places than this for a countryside holiday. Live life as a Blue John miner in Castleton’s caverns, relive the famous ‘Dambusters’ by the Derwent Valley Dams, spot the white hares as you wander across the moorlands of Kinder Scout. If you fancy something less strenuous then just sit on the patio and watch village life go by on the quiet lane outside. But remember that Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, Bakewell’s amazing Monday market and famous puddings are less than a half hour’s drive away.
