A spacious and very comfortable property, set in the sleepy hamlet of Parwich, which boats some great places to eat and drink and wonderful walks, all from your doorstep. Located in the heart of the Peaks, an area well known for its dramatic scenery, fantastic walks and lots of local offerings of dog friendly pubs and cafes. Ashbourne is just 7 miles away, with its array of shops, cafes and restaurants. Or hire a bike around Carsington water, set just over 8 miles away. Matlock Bath (12 miles), known as Little Switzerland, is a great day out, with arcades and riverside walks, perfect for families to explore.

The property itself is set back from the road and is incredibly spacious inside. Walking into the open hallway, the living room sits to the left and is a large, well-lit area that overlooks the garden and field to the rear of the property. There is a wood burner for you to enjoy on those cosy evenings in after a day of exploring and the TV has a Roku firestick. The kitchen is another large and open space, with a wooden dining table and a large well-equipped space for you to gather, cook and relax in. There is also a ground floor cloakroom with WC. Upstairs are two rooms, boasting a king-size bed and a double bed, with plenty of storage and space in both bedrooms. The large family bathroom has a shower over the bath. Each room is well thought out and put together and enjoys light and space in equal measure.

Outside there are open views over the fields and hills at the back, and the property itself is located back from the road with a good sized front garden as well, making it feel very peaceful and private. There is a summer house and outside dining area for you to enjoy and take in the rural environment and peaceful setting. A secure bike storage/boot room is also available. Please note, the garden is enclosed but not guaranteed secure, particularly for small dogs; there are sometimes sheep and horses in the field behind the property, as well as the pheasants!

This cottage is the best we have booked in the last few years with our old rescue dog. Ideal and parking is great. When we arrived I was thrilled because some cottages are slightly disappointing. Fab pub so close too which was very useful for meeting friends during my 80th birthday week. THANK YOU.

The Catlow is a very spacious comfortable property in a beautiful, peaceful little village setting. The perfect property for getting away from the stresses of everyday life. The little garden is perfect for dogs. It was lovely to sit out with a coffee and watch the sheep & pheasants in the field next to the garden. The Sycamore Inn which is the locRead moreal village pub is only a few hundred yards away & serves great food which is well worth the wait. It's the perfect base for visiting all the local attractions. We visited Carsington Water, The Tissington Trail & Dovedale which are all great for walkers. The Old Dog just off the Tissington Trail do a lovely Sunday Lunch. Overall we had a lovely restful time, the only thing that spoilt it was the few rainy days we had. We've already booked to go back next year hopefully with more sunshine next time. We would highly recommend. Hide

A beautifully presented property and in a lovely location. Pub just a short walk away, friendly and with great food. Walks from the door, or a little further afield there are lots of great places to visit. A lovely welcome hamper greeted us along with the call of the owls as we sat in the garden in the evening.
