The delightful, traditional village of Calver lies in the shadow of Froggatt Edge and Curbar Gap, in the heart of the Peak District National Park. A wonderfully traditional village with a Post Office and a country pub serving good food, Calver is close to the National Trust-owned Longshaw Estate, and less than five miles from Chatsworth House - home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire. As well as a traditional pub and Post Office, the pretty village of Calver has a cafe, petrol station, small supermarket selling local produce, a craft shop and a gallery, and is a wonderful base for walks, climbing and mountain biking. The village of Baslow with shops, pubs and restaurants is only a mile and a half away, and a further range of amenities can be found in the market town of Bakewell, the capital of the Peak District and home to the famous Bakewell pudding. Haddon Hall is close by, as is the historic village of Eyam with its selection of pubs, cafes and a craft centre, meaning a day out in the parish of Curbar can be enjoyed by all. Castleton, the home of the Blue John and Speedwell caverns, is 8.5 miles away and offers boat tours through underground caves. Hathersage, 2.7 miles away, is where you can find the Hathersage open-air swimming pool, which must be booked in advance, and, in the church yard, the grave of the legendary 'Little John'.

Warm, bright, comfortable , nicely furnished, stylish apartment.Little balcony if you are lucky with the weather. The kitchen has a combined oven and microwave. Took a little getting used to but the instructions are in one of the cupboards and we had no problems. Good range of quality utensils, pans, baking trays etc. Loved the underfloor heating in the shower room .Good location , in a village with a pub, cafe with early bar, fish and chips and Indian restaurant. The Spar at Calver has 'Cook' meals , a butcher and proper bread . Pricey but very convenient. Near to Eyam and the lovely Padley Gorge.It was great having E V chargers available and for hikers there are bike and boot washes and heated lockers to dry clothes. Would definitely stay here again if we return to the Peaks.

On 1st walking into 48 Rock Mill we were extremely impressed on how immaculately presented the apartment was. All furnishing were extremely comfortable & of a very high standard, we felt that we could've stayed longer. To add that all the other communal areas within Rock Mill were kept to an extremely high standard. Boot room with heated lockers, dog wash station, also a full jar of dog treats (yes, our dog was spoilt), poo bags were also to hand, boot wash, bike wash & store plus outdoor seating with bbq area., children's play area, this all in all made it a perfect stay for the great outdoors. We also loved the fact that we received messages checking in with us to ensure everything was OK, plus receiving recommendations of places to visit. Such a great base to explore from, we will definitely be back.
