Cornstore Cottage

Cornstore Cottage suits couples seeking a quiet retreat. This detached conversion blends exposed beams with modern comforts, set beside pasture and woodland yet close enough to reach the River Derwent's tea room in minutes. A wood burner, underfloor heating and contemporary furnishings keep it warm through cooler months. The property has five steps to the entrance, and internal stairs are steep and narrow.

Upstairs is a double bedroom with an ensuite shower. Downstairs opens into a living space with a woodburner, freeview television and DVD player, alongside a dining and kitchen area equipped for proper cooking—electric oven, dishwasher, microwave and full-size fridge. Electricity, bed linen, towels and logs for the burner are included. You have private parking and a patio with garden furniture, though note there are drops from the patio edge.

The Derwent Valley Heritage Site lies on the doorstep. Crich Tramway Museum, Lea Gardens, the Heights of Abraham and cycle routes on the High Peak Trail are all within a few miles. Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and Kedleston are further afield. A pub and shop sit a mile away. No smoking throughout.
