Great Derbyshire Holiday Cottages

What is special about Derbyshire holiday cottages? A short answer is that a holiday in the Peak District in Ashbourne Derbyshire takes you close to nature and to ancient history. The Peak District National Park, the first one to be designated a national park in British Isles, is the second most visited national park in the whole world.

The national park consists of moorland in the north where you can see herds of sheep grazing peacefully or engage in shooting grouse and habitable areas with several towns and villages in the south. There is a network of public footpaths and walking trails totaling over 2000 miles in length that allow you to get close to nature and its varied sights. There are also bridleways for the use of mountain bikers and horse riders, and large open spaces for climbing hills.

Historic monuments like Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, Norman Peveril Castle and more abound in the district. There are also comparatively modern attractions such as the National Tramway Museum located in the district. You can also watch (or participate in) folk ceremonies dating from pagan daya.

On the boundary of Staffordshire and Derbyshire, you can find the Paddock Farm House Holiday Cottages. Located among the rustic environs of Alstonefield village near the small town of Ashbourne, the luxury cottages are ideal retreats for your Peak District vacation. Paddock House Farm consists of six Ashbourne self catering cottages located in Alstonefield Ashbourne Derbyshire UK.

These Derbyshire holiday cottages can accommodate different sized groups, ranging from private accommodation for a honeymoon couple to a group of ten persons. A group of 40 persons can be accommodated by all the six cottages together.

All the cottages offer fully equipped kitchens with a dishwasher included. Some have outside eating areas with barbeques and picnic benches. Four-poster beds, separate WC and shower rooms (over and above those attached to bathrooms), lounges with bed settee and separate dining areas are other features you can find here.

You will be recharging yourself for meeting the stresses of life after a week or so in these Derbyshire holiday cottages.
