Little Bank - Self-catering cottage in Derbyshire
Millers Dale, SK17 8SN, Derbyshire
England,
Reino Unido
Many little gates lead to your own porch and then an open plan room in rich, restful colours and with glorious views over the hillside. A big wood-burner with an unlimited log supply makes sure you stay cosy, Swedish cushions and throws add charm and the lighting is thoughtful. A barn sliding door leads to a good-sized kitchen with all you need, plus milk from the local dairy, fresh eggs, one of Lou's home baked cakes and a bottle of wine.
A bird feeder in your enclosed gravel garden attracts all the usual suspects but also woodpeckers, nuthatches and you may even catch a glimpse of the resident sparrowhawk. From here you can walk straight into the mixed woodland surrounding you, mainly Ash and Rhododendron - magnificent in spring. For longer walks join the Limestone Way, 46 miles of challenging moorland with rivers to cross.
Return to two neat-as-a-pin bedrooms with crisp bedding, Velux windows for stargazing and scented French soap for the shower.

Local points of interest from Lou & Alan Renfree:
Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Lou & Alan Renfree:
- Spend a whole day out exploring Chatsworth Estate with its acres of parkland, award winning gardens, farm shop and varied scheduled events throughout the year or visit romantic Haddon Hall on the banks of the river Wye in Bakewell.
- Venture south to the beautiful Dovedale valley and the famous stepping stones and then take in the scenic White Peak villages of Tissington and Ilam.
- Keen on design? The David Mellor Round Building cutlery factory and Design shop / cafe is a must at nearby Hathersage.
- Little Bank is only 6 miles from the Derbyshire spa town of Buxton. Visit the warm natural spring of St Ann’s Drinking Well, Pavilion Gardens, Opera House or the newly renovated Grade 1 listed Crescent.
- To the North and only a short drive away is the dramatic Dark Peak area. Visit picturesque Castleton and its famous limestone caves, the village of Edale marking one end of the iconic Pennine Way or watch the sunrise or sunset at the summit of Mam Tor.
- No trip to The Peak would be complete without sampling the ‘Original (and very delicious) Bakewell Pudding. But be warned it may not be your last!
