Situated in the south of the Peak District, Ashbourne is a wonderful example of an English market town. With a traditional market square, eclectic street plan, narrow cobbled alleys, coaching inns and almshouses, the heyday of this settlement came in the 18th Century when the town was a fashionable social centre. Many fine Georgian buildings remain from this era, adding an air of elegance to the town's heart. With numerous restaurants and inns, Ashbourne is also regarded as something of a haven for antique hunters. For those who prefer outdoor pursuits, the Dove and Manifold Valleys are close by, offering wonderful walking opportunities. Alton Towers Theme Park is just 20 minutes drive away and makes a fun day out for all the family.

    We had some difficulties finding the property in the dark. A "Marsh Cottage" sign by the roadside would have helped. Access to the village along small lanes requires 3 miles single tracked roads - a large SUV needs to squeeze carefully through passing places, and a small car bottomed out on the cambered track (but you expect that in the Perak District!)

  • Philip

    Plenty to see on the doorstep and a short drive to the holiday hotspots.

  • Lorraine

    ! The only issue we had was a lack of WiFi, as promised on the listing, other than that a fabulous cottage well maintained with some surprise extras such as tea, coffee, milk and biscuits.
