Wirksworth 1.8 miles. Tucked away in the charming village of Middleton-by-Wirksworth, Derbyshire, is this historic stone-built cottage that serviced as the village post office from the 1800s until 2014. Enjoying a superb location on the outskirts of the Peak District National Park, set on the High Peak Trail with plenty of scenic walks and cycle routes available right from your front door, The Old Post Office is a fantastic choice for larger families, multi-generational families and groups of friends who want to bring along their canine companions. The property benefits from three off-road parking spaces, a front patio with furniture, barbecue and a hot tub, perfect for alfresco dining on warmer days, or a long soak after a day of exploring. On the lower ground floor is a boot room just perfect for safe storage of bikes. On this floor you will also find a fully plumbed doggy wash station, boot storage and drying area. On the ground floor, you will find a large fully-equipped kitchen with double oven for whipping up your best dishes, ready to enjoy at the dining table as you toast to an unforgettable holiday. After dinner, make your way through to the sitting room, where you can relax on the plush seating in front of a much-loved film on the large 4K Smart TV, as your pooches take up their favourite spot in front of the crackling woodburning stove. Completing the ground floor is a lovely king size bedroom and next to it is a luxurious shower room complete with toilet and sink ideal, for those with limited mobility. Head upstairs, where you will find a well-appointed shower room with double length power shower for washing away the day’s adventures, as well as three further beautifully decorated king-size bedrooms, one with en-suite bathroom, and another with woodburning stove, along with a double with single bunk over to give you ultimate flexibility. The two master bedrooms upstairs also feature 4K Smart TVs. Wander through the village, where you can have a cold drink at The Nelson Arms just a few doors up or enjoy a meal at The Rising Sun and enjoy leisurely strolls through Middleton Moor. Continue onto Wirksworth, where you can tour the Wirksworth Heritage Centre, visit the National Stone Centre, hike up to the Black Rocks which offer superb views at their top, dine at a wide variety of restaurants, including Hope & Anchor, Le Mistral, and Saint Betti, or sample local ales at the microbrewery and good selection of pubs. From here, you can easily reach the popular village of Carsington, Hopton, and Carsington Water, where you can wander through the countryside with alpacas, dine at The Miners Arms, try your hand at a plethora of watersports, or enjoy wildlife rich walks around the lake. The next village along is Cromford, the UNESCO World heritage site as the birthplace of the industrial revolution and Matlock Bath, home to the Heights of Abraham, Gulliver’s Kingdom children’s theme park or venture further onto Chatsworth, Bakewell and the beautiful Buxton. All this and more awaits at The Old Post Office.
