Guests describe the cottage as cosy and comfortable, with underfloor heating and a wood burner adding to the homely atmosphere. The comfortable furnishings and peaceful setting ensure a relaxing stay.
The cottage is well-appointed with a fully equipped kitchen, quality bedding, and entertainment options like Netflix. While most guests are satisfied, a few minor issues with maintenance and preferences, such as the desire for a dishwasher or a larger bed, slightly affect the score.

Hartington 3.7 miles. Tucked away within splendid Peak District National Park is this attractive, single-storey barn conversion. Shepherds Retreat is a chocolate box property welcoming couples looking to break away from normal life and place themselves in the heart of Derbyshire’s fine countryside. Boasting an open-plan aspect and beautiful exposed crick barn beams, this cottage is full of character and makes a lovely base to return to each evening. Spend your down time beside the woodburning stove, resting your legs after a day of rambling, or take to the amply-equipped kitchen to prepare a hearty feast, offering all the essential appliances, crockery and cooking utensils needed for a short break. Sit at the dining table and toast to a charming getaway with your loved one, or perhaps the sound of alfresco dining on a warm summer evening is more to your taste? Freshen up within the walk-in shower in the shower room before making yourself at home within the double bedroom, with excellent solid oak furniture to make use of. However you decide to spend your holiday, Shepherds Retreat is a great base for exploring the whole of the Peak District. Note: This property can be booked with Refs. 1073049, 1073047, together sleeping up to 14 guests.

We enjoyed walks and bike rides from the door and the secure bike storage was an excellent additional feature for us. We hope to return to Shepherds Retreat in the future and will recommend it to friends.
Gary
Ideal for walking and cycling straight out of the door.
Margaret
Fully equipped and exceptionally clean. The underfloor heating was an added bonus. Ideally situated for walks directly from the cottage and just a short drive to Ashbourne, Bakewell, Buxton, Matlock and nearby picturesque villages. We can highly recommend this cottage, one of the best we have stayed in over the years.
