NUFFIES COTTAGE, family friendly, character holiday cottage, with a garden in Winster, Ref 2210

Description from the manager

This property is a delightful, semi-detached barn conversion on a working farm and sleeps up to seven people. This charming, semi-detached barn is situated on the owner’s working beef and sheep farm, has panoramic views across the rolling countryside and is a mile and a half from Winster. It has been thoughtfully converted and manages to blend its traditional features with modern conveniences. The well-equipped and stylish kitchen is on open plan with the equally stylish and spacious dining and sitting areas, and there is a well-appointed bathroom and three large bedrooms to complete the accommodation. The family bedroom has its own en...-suite shower room and one of the double rooms has lovely old cruck beams to add to the magical atmosphere of the room. This property is an ideal base for a family or group of friends to discover this fabulous region.

Amenities: Oil central heating. Electric cooker, microwave, fridge, shared use of washing machine & tumble dryer in external utility room, dishwasher, TV, DVD, radio/CD player, small library of books/games. Fuel and power inc. in rent. Bed linen and towels inc. in rent. Cot and highchair on request. Ample off road parking. Lockable bike storage. Enclosed garden with patio area, garden furniture and BBQ. Sorry, no pets and no smoking. Shops and pubs 1.5 miles. Note: This property is situated on a working beef/sheep farm.

Region: The ultimate in “year-round” appeal, the Peak District offers countryside, picturesque villages and magnificent scenery. It touches upon six counties and encloses 555 square miles of open moorland, flowing rivers, and wooded dales.

Town: A conservation village, Winster is in the Peak District National Park and makes a charming base for a holiday. It has a 17th Century market house at its centre, and on the three main streets there are many three storey 18th Century houses. Winding through the village are little alleyways, known to the locals as ginnels, which are well worth exploring. Winster has many traditions, Morris Dancers, the Wakes festivities in June, and the annual Shrove Tuesday pancake race, making this sleepy little village far more vibrant and exciting than many similar sized locations. Walkers and cyclists are well placed for the Tissington Trail and The Limestone way and amenities in the village include a general store, post office and two pubs that serve local food and ales. More shops and facilities can be found in nearby Bakewell and Matlock.Read more

  Excellent!

  Everything about this property was 5 star! Starting right from the directions from the owners! We received a warm welcome, and everything about the cottage was perfect! Very well equipped - even down to picnic equipment, everything you could possibly need.
  The owners delight in you seeing their farm and watching the milking etc, with the neighbouring farm selling free range eggs, which our children collected themselves!
  The views from the cottage are amazing and well within travelling distance to loads of the tourist attractions.

  Excellent Family Holiday

  Left on 12/18/2009 for a stay in August 2009
  
  

  As many people this year we decided to "holiday at home" and looked for
  accommodation for the 6 of us, 2 adults and 4 children. Trying to satisfy all
  our needs is always a challenge but the Peak District could not have been
  better. The accommodation was excellent with three very good size double
  bedrooms 1 with en-suite facilities and the other two sharing a bathroom.
  
  Considering we were on a working farm we were not disturbed at all by any
  early morning milking sessions or general farm activities. In fact this added to
  the interest, the owners of the farm live in the cottage opposite and were very
  friendly and welcoming. Two adorable Labradors greeted us every time we
  ventured outside to head off to one or more of the many attractions the Peak
  District has to offer.
  
  All in all we were not sure what to expect but all of us thoroughly enjoyed our
  stay at Nuffies Farm and are very likely to go back again.

  Left on 12/18/2009 for a stay in December 2008
  
  

  Im sure we have already submitted a review but again we found the property had everything we needed for an extended family stay.The standard of accomadation was first class and the owners couldnt have been more helpful.We have paid much more for properties that dont come anywhere near this standard and would certainly stay there again.
