About this property

Nestled in the traditional town of Ashbourne, King’s Cottage is a delightful terraced cottage that sits just steps away from the bustling Market Square. With so much sitting on its doorstep, this cosy but charming old workers cottage provides a fantastic base for a break filled with scenic walks, outdoor adventures and plenty of restaurants and bars to enjoy dinner and a drink (or two). Step inside this welcoming retreat and be greeted by a homely sitting area featuring a striking inglenook fireplace with a woodburning stove, perfect for snuggling up on the sofas on a cold winter's evening and enjoying your favourite television programmes. The open plan ground floor provides the perfect opportunity to whip up a delicious dinner without missing any of the action, as well providing a wide range of handy utensils the kitchen also boasts a gas hob and electric oven. Untie your walking boots and spend the early evening relaxing with a nice glass of something chilled in the private courtyard before climbing the winding staircase to the first floor. Here you’ll find a spacious king-size bedroom featuring a decorative fireplace and storage where you can fold away the items from your case, not forgetting that all important place to hang your evening outfit. The first floor is also home to a compact but well designed bathroom hosting both a full-length bath and overhead shower, so that you can choose how to best prepare for, and unwind from each day. See the true delights of Derbyshire with days spent hiking through the Wolfscote Dale or embarking on an exhilarating cycle along Manifold Way, spotting the iconic Coffin Well and Dovedale Stepping Stones along the way, enjoy a tour of the National Trust owned Ilam Park Dovedale & the White Peak, or travel to Matlock and see The Great Masson Cavern and Heights of Abraham. The popular theme park of Alton Towers sits within easy touring distance and is a favourite amongst thrill seekers, whilst The Peak Wildlife Park offers something for everyone to enjoy! Historians will relish in a trip to Croxden Abbey and the imposing Wingfield Manor, whilst avid ramblers can challenge themselves to a hike up one of the many mountain peaks within the area. Fall in love with the Peak District during an unforgettable stay at King’s Cottage.

Sitting south of the Peak District National Park, Ashbourne is a quintessential market town resting on the banks of the pretty Henmore Brook. Boasting an abundance of cafés, pubs, restaurant, and two convenience stores and a Post Office, it's little wonder the town has become a firm favourite amongst many holidaymakers. Surrounded by the towns of Cheadle, Matlock and Uttoxeter, as well as easy access to the city of Derby, there is so much to see and do throughout your stay!
