Description

Nuthatch Cottage is a superb cottage providing really classy accommodation. Its beamed ceilings, stone flagged floors, glowing log burning stove, luxurious lounge and quality dining kitchen combine with beautiful bedrooms and fantastic en-suite bathrooms. The cottage is one of a group of three created from the former coach house to Eccles House, a lovely Georgian Mansion situated at the end of a quiet country lane with super views across the valley and a cauldron of Peak District hills as a magnificent backdrop.

Get up early and spot the sleek Nuthatches and other birds that live in the House's extensive grounds and woodland. Have breakfast al fresco before exploring the numerous local walks. A wander down into the valley will get you to the bustling village with its local shops and great pubs. This is an absolutely brilliant holiday location within easy reach of Derbyshire's myriad of visitor attractions.

For exciting days out how about a trip to Castleton's Blue John caverns, Peveril's  castle, Bakewell's famous Monday market, Buxton's exciting go-carts, Gt Hucklow's gliders, Peak Rail's steam trains or Chatsworth House with its gardens, farmyard and adventure playground.

Reviews

The cottage is warm, cosy, well equipped and perfectly located.

Mr A,

10/10 Would recommend this wonderful little haven!! Vicki could not have been more helpful.

Ms H,

I can't speak highly enough of The Nuthatch. Easy booking, and lovely hosts who couldn't have been more accommodating. A beautiful, warm and cosy cottage which was sparkling clean and very well equipped. Well located for all the Peak District attractions, and Manchester. If we're up that way, I'd definitely choose to stay at The Nuthatch again.

Ms C,

lovely cosy property, down a quite lane surrounded by beautiful countryside: nice welcome gifts and basket of logs. Good walks from the door. details in welcome book. We had a short break with friends; the fact that both bedrooms had en-suite facilities and were of similar size with double beds was a great plus. Since acquiring the house and barns the owners have obviously worked hard to restore and develop the site. Great location for visiting the high peak.

Mr U,

Nuthatch was ideal for our needs. It is in a fantastic location which made the large selection of walks easy to reach. The property itself is charming and the views from the bedroom are stunning. The owners go out of their way to be helpful.

Mrs I,

The Nuthatch cottage is in a lovely location and in easy reach of some lovely walks. We had some lovely fresh eggs from the owner's hens whilst we were there. A walk to Eccles Pike is a must. Local restaurant The Old Hall about a 20:minute walk away, you’d need a torch to get back in the dark! There’s one provided at the cottage. The beds were lovely and comfy and bathrooms clean with good showers. The cottage had everything you’d need for a great stay.

Mrs B,

Absolutely idyllic location, well appointed and equipped property. Superb.

Mrs Helen C,

Mr Andy H,

Cottage brilliant hosts great, let us know that we could stay longer on day tomleave which was great. Service with company for bookings etc always been very good

Ms Kerenza G,

Location

CHINLEY

Chinley is a large village surrounded by dramatic Dark Peak countryside views taking in acres of moorland.  Originally part of the Royal Forest of the Peak, Chinley came into its own when the railway was introduced in 1867.  Chinley still has easy rail access to both Sheffield and Manchester, ideal for a day out. 

Closer to home is the town of Castleton, home to the famous Derbyshire Blue John stone, where you can visit the caverns where it has been mined for generations and perhaps take home a piece of jewellery as a gift or souvenir. 

Also nearby is Kinder Scout, the highest point of the Peak District at 636m above sea level.  It is accessible from the pretty villages of Hayfield and Edale but the summit is for serious hikers only and be aware of the local weather forecast before setting out.  Kinder Scout was the setting of the 1932 Mass Trespass which paved the way for the establishment of National Parks, long-distance footpaths and walkers’ rights to roam on common land. 

As you would expect from a large village, Chinley has a good range of shops and eateries and is the ideal place to base yourself for Peak District walks and outdoor activities.

Local Pubs: The Old Hall Inn, Whitehough.  The Lamb Inn, Chinley
