Clays View

About this property

Constructed on the side of the owner's home, this delightful property is situated just a few minutes' walk from the centre of the chocolate box village of Alstonefield with its historic 12th century church. Close by are several village pubs catering to different tastes and budgets.

Spacious and well equipped, Clays View boasts a ground floor open plan living room with a central staircase leading to two character bedrooms with sloping ceilings and wood panelling. Outside, it is surrounded by lovely mature gardens, with a pretty private garden for guests, and overlooks verdant countryside known locally as The Clays, dating back to the days when the clay was used to line local dew ponds. There are excellent walking opportunities from the doorstep in Dovedale and the Manifold Valley, whilst the villages and market towns of the Peak District and attractions such as Chatsworth House are all within easy reach. A location to be enjoyed at any time of year!

On the borders of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, between the valleys of the Dove and the Manifold Rivers, is the charming village of Alstonefield. With real charm and character, this wonderful little settlement has won the 'Best Kept Village Award' ten times (most recently in 2005) and was also in the final of the 'National Village of the Year' award in 1998. With a traditional country pub set just off the village green, this is a truly special holiday destination. Set in verdant green countryside, and along the course of the 'Manifold Trail' which follows the route of the old Leek to Manifold Light Railway this is an ideal spot for walkers or cyclists. The pretty towns of Ilam and Hartington are close by and provide a wide range of amenities such as shops and cafes, whilst further a field are the pretty market towns of Ashbourne and Leek.
