Timeless Tideswell is in the heart of the White Peak and is home to a selection of independent shops, pubs, cafes and – built entirely in the 14th century – a magnificent church known as the Cathedral of the Peak. Walks lead from the village onto some of the most beautiful limestone uplands in the area, including the Nature Reserve of Tideswell Dale which is part of the Wye Valley Site of Special Scientific Interest. For exploration further afield, drive 5 miles east to the poignant ‘plague village’ of Eyam, or 10 miles to the grandeur of Chatsworth House – from there it’s another 5 miles to Bakewell, the birthplace of the famous pudding. Victorian Buxton with its wonderfully restored Opera House and immaculate Pavilion Gardens is just 7.5 miles away, too.
Located up a couple of steps on a quiet lane in picturesque Tideswell, this pretty cottage is decorated and furnished to a superb standard, with a ground-floor cloakroom and well-equipped kitchen/diner assuring guests of all the convenience and comfort of home. The exposed beams and country styling continue in the spacious lounge, where there are sofas, a wood burner and Smart TV for relaxing nights in. A two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout on the first floor makes this an ideal cottage choice for two couples or a small group of friends. In the first bedroom, there’s a substantial king-size bed and en-suite shower room, in the second there’s a double bed and, close by, a family bathroom.
A private patio to the side of the property provides somewhere to enjoy fresh air, food and drinks – perfect after a busy day of sightseeing.
