Description from owner

Description

Set in the beautiful valley of Blackbrook, 'The Byre' has been converted into a spacious and comfortable holiday cottage.

It has two bedrooms which located upstairs; having double handrails on the staircase. Bedroom one has a super king bed( this can be converted to two single beds) with en-suite shower room. Bedroom two has a double bed and also has an en-suite shower room. All bedding, towels and toilet rolls are included; a hair-dryer is also provided in both rooms.

Downstairs features a large living space with ample seating and includes a wide-screen TV with Freeview and a DVD player. Free WiFi is also available. The Byre has gas central heating, lots of hot water and double glazing to ensure warmth in those winter months.

The well-equipped kitchen boasts a gas hob, electric oven, fridge freezer, microwave, dishwasher, kettle and toaster. A washing machine is available on request to guests of both our cottages, which is housed in a separate utility building. An iron and ironing board are located in the cottage.

The patio area is south-facing with patio furniture. This property is ideally suited to sharing couples, unfortunately, we cannot accommodate children as the garden is unsuitable.

Unfortunately we cannot provide charging at this stage for electric vehicles but there are charging points available in Belper, approximately five minutes' drive away.

Our adjoined second cottage 'The Mistal ' which has one king size bed is also available to let. Property ID 620726

The hamlet of Blackbrook is ideal for walkers and has a criss-cross of public footpaths to suit all levels of fitness in the immediate local area; the Midshires way passes directly past the property. There is a local bus service hourly which connects with many of the local market towns, the closest being the market town of Belper 2 km away and a pleasant walk across the fields by the river. There you will find a wide range of cafe's, restaurants and pubs which serve traditional fare and a wide range of international cuisine. There are country pubs within a 2-minute drive from your cottage. You will find local independent shops and a supermarket in Belper's thriving community.

The 6.1 bus has a stop right outside the property hourly, which provides easy access to Belper, Derby or Matlock. This operates from early morning with the last service of the day arriving to Blackbrook just after 11pm (Mon - Sat).

Getting around

By Car: We are centrally located to transport hubs but a car would enable trips to attractions lying away from the main towns. By Bus: Blackbrook (which is 2 miles from Belper) has the local Trent Barton service 6.1 bus service which runs during the day roughly every hour to Belper in the east and west to Matlock/Bakewell it stops directly outside of our cottage (ask the driver for Plains Lane, Blackbrook). Please refer to the printed timetable included inside the accommodation or online for current timetable information. By Train: The local line which runs from Matlock to Derby and beyond calls at Belper station roughly once an hour. The train station has convenient parking and is a short walk from Belper bus station.

“Great cottage in a lovely part of the country.”

Reviewed 28 Sep 2020

The cottage was extremely well equipped and very comfortable situated in a beautiful part of the country. The owner was very welcoming and very helpful. The nearby town of Belper offers a variety of good places to eat. There are lots of great places to visit with in an easy drive and lots of local walks on the doorstep. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage.
