River Lodge is a charming detached cottage located in Ilam, Derbyshire, in the heart of England. Situated beside the picturesque River Manifold, this former gatehouse to the National Trust's Ilam Hall offers a peaceful and idyllic setting in the Peak District. The cottage exudes character with its stone walls, mullion windows, exposed beams, and low ceilings, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
The interior of River Lodge features a country cottage-style kitchen with an AGA range cooker, a dining room for six, a snug for quiet reading, and a sitting room with an open fire for those cold winter nights. The upstairs bedrooms include a king-size double room with a luxurious bath tub, a double room with a zip-and-link bed, and an annexe with a king-size double bed and en-suite shower room. The garden area offers views of green pastures and the soothing sounds of the River Manifold.
Guests can enjoy walks along the river to Ilam Hall, as well as a 10-mile circular hike through stunning scenery featuring Thor's Cave and Wetton village. Nearby market towns like Ashbourne and Stoke on Trent offer restaurants, pubs, and antique shops, while the thrill-seekers can visit Alton Towers. The Peak District region also boasts charming towns like Buxton and Bakewell, along with historic landmarks such as Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall.
Overall, River Lodge provides an indulgent hideaway for up to 6 guests, with the option to book with a neighboring cottage for a total of 8 people. Whether seeking relaxation in the countryside or adventure in the Peak District, this chocolate-box cottage offers a perfect retreat for families and friends looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
