Crich is a pretty Derbyshire village on the edge of the Derbyshire Dales. It is the home of the Crich Tramway Village and Crich Stand - the memorial to the Worcestershire and Sherwood Foresters Regiment. Crich was also the setting for the fictional village of Cardale which featured in the popular TV series 'Peak Practice'. Many attractions are within easy reach and there are many glorious walks right from the doorstep. There is something for all ages and areas of interest nearby, including Matlock and Matlock Bath, Gulliver’s Kingdom and the Heights of Abraham for the more adventurous. For a more relaxing time, just a little further away is the lovely town of Bakewell and the stunning Chatsworth House.

 The cottage is approached via a few steps via the garden. Stepping inside this traditional country cottage featuring neutral colour palette and wooden beams overhead, take your coat and boots off and leave them in the handy cloakroom. Your kitchen is on the left; it's a generous size to prepare a home-cooked meal and dine at the kitchen table. The kitchen comes complete with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer and slimline dishwasher. Head through to the lounge with an original multi-fuel stove at its heart, curl up on the sofa to watch a movie on the Smart TV or just have a good old catch up by the fire. A selection of games and books offers traditional entertainment. When it's time to retire, take yourself upstairs to one of the two bedrooms: a double and a bunk bedroom. The bathroom has a shower over bath and WC so it's perfect if you need to immerse yourself in a hot bath after a long walk or wake yourself up with an energising shower.

Outside is an enclosed garden to the side of the property, ideal for children and your four-legged friend. Light up the charcoal BBQ on a summer's afternoon and enjoy the peaceful surroundings of the countryside.

This was the second time we have stayed at this cottage for Christmas. We love the cottage, the open fire and the beautiful lounge are perfect for a cosy Christmas setting. There were some lovely welcome gifts left for us to enjoy & the view from the kitchen window is beautiful, especially at sunrise. Despite some general cleaning issues, we hope tRead moreo return again for another Christmas. I would recommend taking more kindling if staying for more than a few days. Hide

A charming little cottage which was an ideal base from which to explore this lovely area. Absolutely no issue from the road noise although would recommend reversing in to the parking space due to the limited visability. The garden fence to next door needs strengthening as curious dogs can get through. Loved the village of Crich (pub really friendlyRead more) and would happily return. Hide
