Nestled in a fabulous, elevated location overlooking the rest of Wirksworth, Derbyshire is Hog Cottage. This characterful, stone-built cottage offers guests a wonderful setting close to local amenities and the adventure-filled Peak District National Park as well as a welcoming interior adorned with characterful features like exposed beams and stone work completed with two well-appointed bedrooms; the perfect setting for friends, families or couples looking to explore the wonders of Derbyshire with two of their beloved canine companions. Cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and step through into the sitting room which is undoubtedly the heart of the home thanks to the warming gas fire and plush seating. Unwind here in front of the Smart TV before heading into the fully-equipped kitchen/diner to rustle up a hearty meal that the whole family can enjoy around the spacious dining table. On sunny days, why not step outside to the private, front patio where you can fire up the barbecue and admire the sun setting over the town; the perfect place to raise a toast to your well-earned retreat. When the evening draws to a close, head upstairs to wash off the day’s adventures in the bathroom before retiring to either of the king-size bedrooms, one of which boasts a handy zip/link feature. During the day head into the heart of Wirksworth where you can stock up on all your self-catering essentials or, on the night’s when you don’t fancy cooking, enjoy a delicious meal at the Hope and Anchor or the Le Mistral. The town is also home to the Wirksworth Heritage Centre, The National Stone Centre and Stoney Wood where guests can amble through the countryside. Keen ramblers can also venture into the nearby Peak District National Park where you can try your hand at more difficult trails including Eyam Moor, Jacob’s Ladder and Kinder Scout which all offer breath-taking views over the English countryside. Also ideal for families, with a days adventure cycling on the High Peak Trail, with bike hire available from Middleton Top. Carsington Water is just a short drive away and you will find a wide variety of water activities from Canoeing, Paddle Boarding and Sailing with specific tuition dedicated to families. In Mattock you will find some great attractions which will appeal to children, including a ride on the cable cars at The Heights of Abram, Matlock Farm Park and Little Monkeys Play Center. The charming towns and villages of Matlock, Ashbourne and Bakewell are also easily accessible housing a myriad of other attractions; there's truly something for everyone! Make memories at Hog Cottage!
