About this property
A really classy little holiday retreat in a picturesque Peak District village close to all Derbyshire's myriad of attractions.
Swallows Nest is an impressive one level cottage on the edge of the picturesque village of Birchover. Inside is tastefully decorated, with a glowing wood burning stove, comfortable furniture and original features such as wooden beams. Relax in the lounge, with the fire roaring whilst looking out the glass doors at the extensive garden and its beautiful surroundings. With its modern and well equipped kitchen, super bathroom and attractive bedroom, you’ll feel right at home.
The location of Swallows Nest is fantastic. Birchover is a peaceful Peak District village. Just beyond the village you have Stanton Moor, a fascinating place with stone circles, ancient burial mounds and rocky tors. Nearby are more craggy rock formations, including Cratcliffe Tor with its medieval hermit’s cave and Robin Hood’s Stride, all surrounded by breath-taking landscapes. The Limestone Way is a wonderful footpath to help you explore the Peak District hills.
Jump in the car and you’ll soon be at the National Tramway Museum, Matlock Bath’s cable cars, Caudwell’s Mill Craft Centre, Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall or even pop to Bakewell to sample its famous and delicious Pudding.

The cottage was lovely. We enjoyed the location and home from home comforts. The amount of wildlife kept my husband (photographer) busy for hours. Lovely owners, good communication.
