Description
Farriers is an incredible find. A peaceful hideaway surrounded by stunning countryside in the very midst of the wonderful Peak District. The dramatic lounge with its vibrant colours and sumptuous suite, the more gently decorated bedroom with its luxurious king size bed, the classy 'state of the art' shower room and the breath-taking views all combine to make this a fantastic cottage, attached to the owners' home, on the edge of picturesque Ilam.
There is something almost mystical about the countryside as you drop over the edge towards the village. Craggy Dove Dale with its famous stepping stones, Lovers’ Leap and Jacob's Ladder runs off to the right. Manifold Valley with its Paradise Walk and amazing vanishing river is just as close. Follow the River Dove down to the historic market town of Ashbourne with its lovely country town shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs.
Explore the numerous local walks before enjoying lunch in a village pub. But when you hang up your walking boots remember that all Derbyshire's attractions are close at hand from Chatsworth House and Bakewell to Carsington Water, Crich's Tramway Museum and even Alton Towers!

Location
ASHBOURNE
Ashbourne is a lovely old Victorian market town at the southern end of the Peak District National Park. Known as the ‘Gateway to the Peaks’, it has lots of designer clothes shops, antique emporiums, restaurants and pubs gathered around the cobble market square and in the surrounding streets.
Close to famous Dove Dale with its stepping stones across the river, Thorpe Cloud with its magnificent views and the Lovers Leap, if you dare, there are few better places to go for a walk in the fantastic countryside. Another must visit is Paradise Walk by the side of the river Manifold from the picturesque village of Ilam.
You might also fancy walking or cycling from the centre of the town along the Tissington Trail up into the Peaks. Carsington Water with its wild water sports, birdwatching, cycle trail and visitor centre is also close by. And a short drive will soon get you to Matlock Bath, Bakewell, Chatsworth, and then into the heart of the National Park.
Local pubs – The Wheel Inn, The Ye Olde Vaults and The George and Dragon.
