Winster is a charming village nestled between Matlock which is a mere 5 miles away, boasting dramatic limestone scenery, a lovers walk and the Heights of Abraham. Bakewell which sits at just over 6 miles away, with lots of cafes, restaurants, of course the famous Bakewell pudding and cobbled streets to wander. The heart of Winster has its historic market square, lined with quaint cottages and traditional stone buildings. The village is home to several historic landmarks, such as Winster Market House, a Grade II listed building, and St. John the Baptist Church, which dates back to the 12th century. Walking enthusiasts can embark on some great walks, including the famous Limestone Way and the scenic trials of Stanton Moor. Or why not visit one of the fabulous large houses, with both Chatsworth and Haddon Hall sitting about 8 miles away from the cottage.

Walking inside the hallway, there are two beautifully appointed bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs, and the living room and kitchen are on the first floor. Both bedrooms have a good amount of storage and beautiful throws and cushions. The immaculate glossy bathroom benefits from a shower over the bath, with spotlights in the ceiling. Walking upstairs you are met by exposed beams, a wood burner in the living room, and windows overlooking the attractive tree lined patio area. There is a dining table and wonderful deep window seats, which makes for the perfect place to perch and watch the world go by with your favourite book. The cottage boasts a lovely bistro style dining area located within the kitchen, offering the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee and welcome in the day with views of the cottage lined street. The kitchen itself is well-equipped with modern appliances, ensuring that you have everything you need to whip up delicious meals during your stay.

A beautiful old, characterful cottage in a lovely village. We were fairly comfortable. It does need to be cleaned better between occupants. We were disappointed with the amount of cobwebs there were and the previous occupants hair in the bathroom was a little off putting. We cleaned it ourselves before we used it. Overall, we did enjoy our time at Read morethe cottage. Hide

Farriers cottage was a lovely bolt hole in the Peak District, the kitchen was well equipped and lovely under floor heating. The cottage is perfectly situated for exploring the area just short drive from all the top attractions. The snow while we were there was the cherry on the top Loved it!!!

The only problem we had with our stay was the overpowering smell of mould in the larger bedroom. Even leaving the window open for long periods could not remove the problem. This made sleeping in that room almost impossible. It's a shame because the rest of the accommodation was very good.

The Farriers Cottage is a really lovely place. I stayed there with my son and husband over the bank holiday and we enjoyed it very much. Winster village has a shop and the Bowling Green pub within walking distance. Some very beautiful walking routes start from the village as well. The cottage itself is perfect for three people. It has a well equipeRead mored kitchen, a sweet little terrace (weather permitting), the lounge upstairs was great place to sit down and relax. The rooms are small but functional. Hide

Beautiful cottage in a quaint little village in the Peak District - small shop a 2min walk away which was perfect for essentials. Lots of beautiful scenery and hikes nearby.

Lovely house which was a home from home. Very clean and had everything we needed. Outside space/patio idyllic. One negative was the parking. We arrived on a bank holiday which we thought would mean it would quieten down after (we stayed 5 nights) but it didnt. Its a busy village and we were on Main Street. Also saying pub 2 mins away, when its onlyRead more open Thursday-Sunday and only limited hours is misleading. So we walked uphill to the other pub on outskirts of village and it was very friendly.

A disappointing stay where improvements could have been made to maintain the property better. It had damp condensation at the windows and a neglected outside space. We did not stay for the full duration of our holiday and received an unsatisfactory response to our complaint both from the owner and letting agent.
