The Old Granary Matlock - Self-catering house in Derbyshire
Beech Farm, Wheatcroft Lane, Wheatcroft, DE4 5GU, Derbyshire
England,
Regno Unito
This Grade II-listed cottage is tucked away in a tiny hamlet overlooking the stunning Amber Valley, with plenty of wildlife in the fields around – birdwatchers will be in paradise – and the most incredible night skies.
Amanda and Martin live in the main farmhouse and welcome you with some thoughtful goodies – a homemade Victoria sponge cake, chocolates, a bottle of fizz on ice, fresh eggs from the chickens, local sourdough bread and butter. There's a separate Cabin (which can be taken alone) available for further guests at an extra cost.
You’ll be happy here rain or shine, with plenty of books and magazines; in fine weather you can eat outside or simply sit quietly with a book and gaze down over four counties - the views are spectacular, particularly from the outdoor bath - so, enjoy starry nights by the firepit and glorious sunrises. There are pubs and shops a few minutes away, and plenty of historic houses are within a half hour drive.
