Situated on the historic Harpur Crewe Estate, the Joiners Shop rests beautifully in the picturesque village of Ticknall, one of South Derbyshire’s prettiest villages and known for its beautiful parkland surrounded by attractive well-wooded countryside. With tasteful accommodation over two levels; friends, families and couples alike can treat themselves to a cottage holiday of the highest order. Positioned within a charming courtyard setting, this characteristic property is tastefully decorated and tells a tale of history with a collection of artwork, photographs and books all relating to the Harpur Crewe Estate and the former ancestral seat at Calke Abbey. Enter into the inviting entrance snug, featuring traditional wooden beams and an exposed stone wall in contrast with contemporary and colourful décor, the ideal space to kick off your shoes after a long journey or active day, and also offering a calm space in which to sit and get lost in a book or unwind with a morning coffee or afternoon cup of tea. Venture further into the bright and contemporary open-plan living space, creating a vibrant social environment where the whole family can gather throughout the day. Turn on the TV and relax back into the comfortable sofas in the sitting area, or flick on the radio and rustle up a family favourite in the spacious well-equipped kitchen, ready to enjoy at the contemporary, wooden dining table in the centre of the room. When the night draws to a close, head to one of the three individually styled bedrooms to unwind further and drift gently off to sleep. The ground floor plays host to a king-size bedroom with en-suite, while upstairs offers a super-king-size bedroom with en-suite, twin bedroom and family bathroom featuring Victorian style roll top bath. In the warmer months, the enclosed rear garden is the perfect place to be. Play on the lawn with the children or dine alfresco on the outdoor patio. Even during rainy days you can sit within the comfort of the stunning summerhouse and while the time away. The local area is idyllic and offers much for visitors to see and do. Pull on your walking boots and take a stroll into the village or venture into the vast green lands of Calke Abbey Park, stopping for refreshments at the village café/takeaway. Two local pubs also offer food and drink in relaxing surroundings. Staunton Harold Reservoir is close by and the bustling Georgian market town of Melbourne just 2.6 miles away. Here you can find an old mill pool relating to the town’s name meaning of ‘Mill Stream’, the historic and picturesque Melbourne Hall and Gardens, plus an array of eateries to indulge in. Going further afield are the various country parks within Charnwood Forest and the delights of the Peak District National Park. The Joiners Shop is a fantastic property, the perfect place for all the family and providing everything you need for a self-catering stay in beautiful settings.
