Situated on
the fringes of the Peak District, Weathericks self-catering holiday cottages
offer premium accommodation surrounded by stunning scenery and historic market
towns. Whether you are looking for a relaxing break or a luxury base to explore
the Peaks, the crofts provide a unique and comfortable setting.
The larger
of the two cottages, Bradstones was once a barn used to house cattle.
Renovation has transformed the steading into a luxurious and spacious cottage
whilst retaining its character.
The stable
door opens into a large, open-plan kitchen complete with a dining table and
chairs. The kitchen is fitted with hand-made pine units and all the appliances
needed to make you feel right at home. The large wooden dining table allows
easy access around the kitchen.
Into the sitting
room, you are greeted by two large sofas, a coffee table and a large stone
fireplace, cast iron fire with a gas coal effect stove.
The beamed roof and flag stoned wall and stairway maintain the history of the
building and a set of large doors lead into a small furnished patio.
The
traditionally decorated stairway (take care when going up and down) leads to a bright
landing off which are the bedrooms and bathroom.
In the
smaller cottage, Weathericks, you'll find a full range of appliances and plenty
of storage space. The kitchen holds a large dining table that sits six. The
beamed ceiling retains the character and history of this old barn at no cost to
the luxury.
The sitting
room's main feature is the gritstone fireplace with a gas coal effect log
burning stove. The large sofa offers beautiful views out the patio doors
towards Carsington Water reservoir. The patio is furnished with a table and
chairs and leads into the shared lawn area…
„Jean! We loved it... Roses, wine,
wildflower meadow, our own peacock and its love affair with the pleasant, and
dinner outside under the moon; you didn't forget a thing! We could live here
forever. You've done an amazing job with these two cottages - thank you so
much!”
