Everything! The place was impeccable and fabulous. Great walking from the hut. Absolute peace and tranquillity. The owners were also super helpful if and when required.

    “Great little hut for a break away from real life. It was clean, spacious and comfortable. It was really warm too even though we stayed at the end of November.”

Neighborhood info

Ashbourne, which is located at the southernmost point of the Peak District, is the epitome of an English market town, complete with a market place with stalls, an odd street layout, winding cobblestone lanes, coaching inns, and almshouses. The town was a posh social hub during its heyday in the 18th century, and many lovely Georgian structures from this time period still stand today. The town is still known as something of a sanctuary for antique hunters today and still has a lot to offer in terms of restaurants and inns, but don't expect a deal! The Dove and Manifold Valleys are nearby for those who prefer more outdoor activities, while Alton Towers, with its thrilling collection of thrills and attractions, is only a short drive away for thrill seekers.
