At Cotterill Farm we have five non-smoking and pet-free holiday cottages
for rental as self-catering (vacation rental) accommodation. Our cottages
have consistently achieved the grading of 4 Stars from the English Tourism
Council (and under the old grading system 'Highly Commended'), but despite
this we have constantly striven to improve our facilities.
Three cottages are for four person occupancy, one, a new barn conversion
all on the ground floor is for three person occupancy and one, a particularly
spacious one is for two person occupancy. One of the four person cottages
has two double bedrooms, making it particularly suited for two couples.
The cottages are classified by the English Tourist Board as 4 Stars but
we do not rest on our laurels, we are constantly looking to up-grade and
improve both the cottages and the supplementary services we provide. They
ALL have colour TV with Freeview Sky, (four of the cottages have two tvs
and two cottages have full Sky film and sports programmes) dishwashers,
videos, dvds, microwaves, radios, hair dryers and all other facilities
appropriate to a high quality conversion. There is also a wireless broadband
facility . Standards of housekeeping are considered to be second to none
The cottages are superbly situated very close to the beautiful valley
of Dovedale in a lovely part of the Peak District National Park, between
the highly acclaimed village of Hartington and its smaller neighbour,
Biggin-by-Hartington. We are extremely well placed for most of the major
tourist attractions of the area, such as Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall,
Castleton Caverns, the Dove and Manifold Valleys, plus the attractive
local towns of Buxton, Ashbourne, Bakewell and Leek. There is excellent
walking from the doorstep. There is a network of quiet country lanes in
the immediate vicinity, making our cotttages a superb base for cycling
but in addition there are three cycle trails, of average 17 miles length,
within 3 miles, one being accessible only a mile away.
