Winsmore Cottage - Luxury Cottage in Derbyshire

This cosy yet spacious interior designed property has many luxury features including a spacious limestone wet room, a dressing room, boot room and a cosy wood burning stove in the sitting room. The cottage also benefits from a sunny conservatory, making it the ideal place to relax whilst immersed in the verdant English countryside.

The pretty rose garden’s patio area provides a delightful spot to enjoy alfresco dining and listening to the birds sing.

Winsmore Cottage is close to the picturesque market town of Bakewell; home of the famous pudding. One of the country’s oldest markets, first recorded in 1254, is held in Bakewell every Monday. Nearby is Chatsworth House, first built by Bess of Hardwick, home of the Duke of Devonshire and where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned. The cottage is superbly positioned for ramblers wanting to explore the beautiful Derbyshire countryside.

About the area

The village of Over Haddon is an excellent base to enjoy the walks and scenery of the Peak District. Walks can be as relaxing or as strenuous as you like. Take an amble around Ham Park and Dovedale or Hinkey Hollow Woods, or clamber around the White Peak countryside, it’s up to you.

Lover’s Leap old fossils

If you go for a walk in Dovedale valley, look out for the limestone promontory known as Lover’s Leap. The stone steps to the top were built by Italian prisoners in the Second World War.

Stanton Moor and the Nine Ladies stone circle is well worth a visit, with many Bronze Age relics and burial mounds overlooking Stanton in Peak as well as the Wye and Derwent valleys.

Often named the UK’s favourite country house, Chatsworth House is just a short drive from the cottage. You could spend a day exploring the house itself, but spare time to wander around the gardens too – all 105 acres of them!

The market town of Bakewell is just up the road. Every Monday is market day, with furious bidding taking place at the livestock market too.

Haddon Hall offers a wonderful day out, with elegant gardens and a perfectly kept house that dates back to the Middle Ages.
