Vacation Rental Description
The Locality
The area is an excellent one for rambling with Crich Chase, Shining Cliff Wood, Cromford canal and other local walks, whilst the 50 mile footpath, 'The Derwent Heritage Way' can be accessed at the foot of the hill.

Local attractions are Derbyshires great houses, Chatsworth - the seat of the Duke of Devonshire - and Haddon and Kedleston Halls, all of which have been used in various period films. Also, The Cottage is close to the ancient, Roman, lead mining town of Wirksworth; the mining museum in Cromford; the various Heritage Mills and associated engineering features such as High Peak Junction (the oldest surviving railway workshop in Britain)and the Leawood Pumphouse (with a magnificent steam engine still capable of lifting 4 tonnes of water from the River Derwent to the Cromford canal). The National Tramway Museum in Crich (one mile away) has tram rides and a nature and sculpture trail; and there is also the Ecclesbourne Valley Steam Railway; Peak Rail; and the Steeple Grange Light Railway.

For children, just 4 miles away is 'Gulliver's Kingdom' – a theme park in nearby Matlock Bath – with the famous Alton Towers an approximate 45mins drive.

For the energetic, rock climbing, caving, hang-gliding and ballooning may be pursued, whilst the local rivers and Carsington reservoir provide opportunity for the angler.

Two golf courses are accessible, one at Matlock and another at Duffield.

Accommodation
A cosy main room with beamed ceiling and woodblock floor has lounge and dining areas: a colour television, DVD and video player is provided together with many books and games (chess, scrabble and etc).

The separate fully equipped kitchen has an oil-fired Aga (lit in winter or by arrangement); an electric 4-hob cooker with oven; a microwave, refrigerator, toaster, kettle, crockery, cutlery, cooking utensils. Iron, ironing board, vacuum cleaner and etc.

The main bedroom has a double bed and views over the valley. The second bedroom has 2 adult-sized bunk beds.

The upstairs bathroom has a bath with shower, toilet, washbasin, and electric razor point. A hairdryer is provided.

The conservatory/porch has splendid views over the Derwent Valley.
