Brook cottage in Baslow next to Chatsworth Park

Traditional cottage in the popular village of Baslow with bathroom and downstairs wc

Great local amenities within walking distance

Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac leading to the river

Ideally situated for walks along the Derwent river, into Chatsworth estate or up onto the moors

Living area with dining table and a separate cosy sitting room

A delightful cottage located by the river in the sought after village of Baslow, adjacent to the pedestrian entrance to Chatsworth Park.
This refurbished 18th century cottage has original features over 3 floors. It is ideally positioned in this popular village close to excellent local amenities which include 2 village shops and a choice of restaurants, cafes and gastropubs. There is also a fine dining restaurant at Baslow Hall.
A short stroll over the river is the entrance to Chatsworth Park and all its attractions. Bakewell and Haddon Hall are within less than 7 miles. The market town of Chesterfield, with its crooked spire and Hardwick Hall are about 20-30 minutes drive, as are Edale and the Hope valley.
This is a prime walking area with so many walks from the front door. Go up onto the edges ( stunning views over the Hope valley) or walk along the river Derwent as far as Derby- if you have the energy.

The cottage was renovated over winter 2018 and the living accommodation enhanced, in line with recommendations from guest reviews to the previous owners. A downstairs toilet and dishwasher were also added. However, the property has steep and narrow stairs so is unsuitable for disabled visitors. It has since been redecorated as needed to maintain an extremely high standard of accommodation, including a recent bathroom renovation.

You enter the cottage into a generous living/dining room, with access to a kitchen and utility room at the rear, off which is a downstairs wc. The living room has a wood burning stove in the original fireplace and a music centre. From the kitchen, the back door leads to a paved courtyard with table, chairs and a BBQ. The kitchen is equipped with oven, hob, fridge with icebox, dishwasher, microwave and washer.
On the first floor is a cosy sitting room with a smart TV, DVD player and spacious bathroom with a separate shower, bath, wc and hand basin.
Stairs lead up to the second floor bedrooms. The rear bedroom has a king size zip and link bed which can be split into 2 singles. The front room has a double bed and fitted cupboards, with views from the velux window towards the park.

There is wireless internet throughout the property.

A first come first served parking space is available over the bridge for residents or there is ample parking in the village car park 100m away. We do ask that guests respect the parking restrictions outside the property, except for loading and unloading, for the sake of our neighbours. High chair and cot are available. Bedding and towels are provided.

A maximum of 2 dogs are welcome at a charge of £20 per dog but should not go on soft furnishings or in the bedrooms.

November in Baslow

It is a sweet home, well furnished with surprising space on three floors. The stairs are very steep but not a problem for us. Great location only a few paces from the Chatsworth estate and from the centre of Baslow, the nicest village in the Derbyshire Dales.

Clean, Comfortable and Cosy

We were only staying for three nights which was a shame as could have done with longer.. We found the cottage easily, it was warm, clean and comfortable. Great walking from the front door. We hopped on a bus to Bakewell and had a wander around the town and hopped on a bus back. Would thoroughly recommend

Superb location

Stunning cottage in the best location. We didn’t have a car so location was key. Within a couple of minutes walk you are in the Chatsworth Estate. The local bus stop is just across the road which is great for using the hop on hop off open top bus in the summer. Also a great Italian restaurant in Baslow. I highly recommend this cottage & will definitely rebook.
