A lovely, stone-built Peak District cottage, on a country lane 1 mile from Stocksbridge, on the edge of the Peak District National Park, with views of the valley and surrounding moors. This former housekeeper's Stocksbridge cottage has been lovingly restored to make anideal romantic retreat; the spacious master bedroom is a real delight, with a king-size bed and first-class en-suite bathroom. The living area of this Stocksbridge cottage is very cosy, with wonderful large sash windows and an electric stove. Enjoy wonderful walks from the doorstep of this Stocksbridge cottage, explore Langsett and the Don Valley, or visit the vibrant city of Sheffield. This is an ideal Stocksbridge cottage for a base to get away from it all and enjoy fine country living.
Stocksbridge is a town on the north-east edge of the lovely Peak District, and offers a variety of places to eat and shop, as well as a host of footpaths and bridleways to explore. Afternoon strolls can be enjoyed beside the Langsett, Broomhead and Moorhall dams, and Holmfirth, featured in Last of the Summer Wine, is close by. The longer walks and good mountain biking of the National Park are a short drive away, and visitors may even take advantage of the proximity of the M1 to venture as far afield as Sheffield, Leeds or York.

She needs to use a wheelchair now but it should only be for few weeks. This has nothing to do with the cottage. The cottage was great and so well equipped. As a keen gardener the grounds at Underbank Hall were as they say "to die for". I don't know how the owners keep it in such good condition. If you drive an eV there are a number of contactless eV chargers at the Fox valley centre in town.

The views from both inside and outside were spectacular! It was refreshing, too, for our furry friend with a lovely area to exercise in. The nearby areas and towns were very enjoyable to visit, in particular Upperbank Reservoir and Holmfirth. Our only problem during our stay was Mother Nature treating us to cold, wet, weather which, obviously, was beyond the remit of our friendly, welcoming hosts. Absolutely Lovely!!

Scones on arrival with tea making facilities very much appreciated. Excellent views from the cottage. Lots of local walks. One of the best cottages we have stayed in.
