Tucked away on the edge of the picturesque village of Marston Montgomery is this beautifully-presented one bedroom pod, Oh Deer!

Lying at the southern end of the Peak District, Ashbourne is a perfect example of an English market town - market place with stalls, eccentric street plan, narrow cobbled alleys, coaching inns and almshouses. In its heyday in the 18th-century, the town was a fashionable social centre, and many fine Georgian buildings remain from this period. Today the town still has much to offer in terms of restaurants and inns and is regarded as something of a haven for antique hunters - but don’t expect a bargain! For those who prefer more outdoor pursuits, the Dove and Manifold Valleys are close by and for thrill seekers Alton Towers with its exciting collecting of rides and attractions is just a short drive away.

Tom
The pod is immaculate and had everything we needed for our stay. Lovely and cosy for a March weekend. Jane was incredibly helpful and welcoming, answering any questions and being available for anything that may arise. This included a full walkthrough on using the absolutely amazing hot tub. Situated in spectacular scenery and with many other fantastic locations to visit very close by. Very much recommended. Thank you very much Jane

Jane was an amazing host and made us feel very welcome when we arrived, the pod was spotless, cosy and the small touches by Jane made our stay even better. Thereâs a local pub just a few minutes walk away and a nice farm shop we visited a couple of times. We would recommend Oh Deer to anyone who wants a relaxing trip in the countryside.

Owner was helpful and friendly. The hut/lodge had everything we needed and was a really short walk to a very nice pub. We really enjoyed our stay, thanks!
