About this property
Cromford 1 mile. Set in a sizeable plot, amongst a very beautiful landscape, this traditional stone-built barn conversion rests near to the High Peak Trail, at High Peak Junction which is part of the Derwent Valley World Heritage Site. With its character features, comfy furnishings and mighty beamed ceilings, Oak Tree Cottage is a real home-from-home. This is the perfect choice, whether you’re seeking a space to relax and turn your back on the world for a while, or wish to weather your walking boots during an action-packed adventure. The cottage-style kitchen and rustic dining table open to the warmth of the sitting room with its cosy electric stove and sumptuous sofas making for a very sociable evening in. The bedrooms are well equipped with solid wood furniture; one is located on the ground floor with a shower room and toilet next to it, a really useful feature for anyone not-too-happy with stairs. The other two bedrooms are on the first floor along with the family bathroom. The hallway provides a warm and useful space to hang your coats and park your boots, and immediately outside the back door is a patio with table and chairs where you can relax with a coffee before setting out on an adventure.You have direct access to owners’ fields and a public footpath leading to the woods with its many trails such as the High Peak Trail and Cromford Canal. There is a beautiful Nordic Cabin to relax with your family.There is secure storage for bikes in between missions.

This is a charming little cottage to return to at the end of each day’s discovery.

Chris
Particularly suited us to have a ground floor bedroom and shower room alongside the dogs in the hallway for one couple, with first floor as a separate sleeping/bathroom arrangement. Immediate surrounds are dog friendly and secure, with easy access to walks from the field. We had a really relaxing few days away and look forward to coming again.

Only thing I would say is Internet connection is poor and could do with improving as one of us needed to check emails etc whilst away The cabin is very good .

Excellent communication from owner who was very informative and helpful. Very clean on arrival and very well maintained inside and out. Equipped with everything you could possibly need and of very good quality. Heating easily adjusted to preferred temperature and warm and cosy, constant hot water. The downstairs bedroom and shower room an absolute bonus, as was the washing machine and tumble dryer located in the adjoining building . Beds very comfortable. Bigger than it looks on the pictures. Wifi and phone signal intermittent. Area is lovely and although just off the main A6 it felt very secluded as fully screened from the road, very private and not overlooked from any side. Lovely walks just across the road along the canal towpath which suits both seasoned walkers as there are more challenging routes leading off and those just wanting a casual stroll as it is safe and flat. Would highly recommend and hope to return. Thank you for an excellent break.
