Welcome

We offer 2 Gold Award winning luxury self catering holiday country cottages on our organic farm situated in Dovedale within the Peak District National Park, Derbyshire. Our Dovedale Cottages are Grade II listed and have a cosy "Country Living" feel in one of the most peaceful and tranquil settings deep in the heart of the Peak District National Park, with stunning scenery in all directions. These lovingly restored cottages are situated in a truly unique position at the top of Hall Dale in Stanshope and therefore are ideally positioned for the Dovedale and Manifold Valleys.
