  • "Very well stocked and maintained property."

    Everything a couple needed and a lovely small town to explore. I would mention though although there was plenty of room for two, five would be stretching it as there is only one small bathroom. We are also a couple in our late 60's and the stairs are very steep. Overall though an excellent cottage.

  • "We enjoyed a brilliant 5 day stay at Poppy Cottage."

    The cottage was very clean, cosy, and comfortable. The location was great - within a few minutes walk you are in the centre of Ashbourne. A lovely little town, gorgeous small shops, and a fantastic park for kids complete with multiple football pitches (perfect for our football mad boys!). So much to see and do in the surrounding area, we were spoilt for choice. We made some lovely memories, and would recommend Poppy Cottage as a base in the Peaks to anyone.

Nestled in a prime location in Ashbourne, Derbyshire on the outskirts of the Peak District National Park is this delightful three-bedroom dwelling, Poppy Cottage.

Boasting a characterful interior, a well-equipped kitchen and an electric flame-effect stove, Poppy Cottage is a charming base for families, friends or couples to enjoy a tranquil escape to Derbyshire.

After unloading your personal belongings, step into your new home-from-home to discover a quaint sitting room adorned with Smart TV and electric flame-effect stove where you and your loved ones can kick back and relax after a long day of exploring your scenic surroundings.

Allow your other half to whip up a tasty dish in the well-equipped kitchen, boasting a fantastic range of appliances to ease your self-catered stay; settle down in the intimate dining room to relish meal times altogether or if the weather permits, make use of the pretty courtyard space to savour an alfresco affair.

When the stars appear, retreat to the spacious shower room on the first floor before choosing from a double, bunk and single to catch your sleep in.

Begin your morning with a relaxing stroll around Ashbourne Park, showcasing an array of stunning gardens, before sampling some hearty fare at one of several pubs, restaurants or cafes including The George and Dragon, Lamplight Restaurant and The Ashbourne Gingerbread Shop.

Traverse the Peak District National Park where you’ll find Thor’s Cave, Throwley Old Hall and Ilam Park in addition to Kinder Scout and The Shivering Mountain, which you can summit for a more challenging activity.

If you’re seeking an adrenaline-fuelled pastime, spend the day in Alton Towers, hosting a wealth of rollercoasters and fun-filled attractions; you are also well-positioned here to visit Derby, Stoke-on-Trent and the bustling city of Manchester, so you’ll never be short of things to do or see.

About the location

ASHBOURNE

Matlock 15.7 miles; Bakewell 16.6 miles; Chatsworth 20.4 miles.

Lying at the southern end of the Peak District, Ashbourne is a perfect example of an English market town - market place with stalls, eccentric street plan, narrow cobbled alleys, coaching inns and almshouses. In its heyday in the 18th-century, the town was a fashionable social centre, and many fine Georgian buildings remain from this period. Today the town still has much to offer in terms of restaurants and inns and is regarded as something of a haven for antique hunters - but don’t expect a bargain! For those who prefer more outdoor pursuits, the Dove and Manifold Valleys are close by and for thrill seekers Alton Towers with its exciting collecting of rides and attractions is just a short drive away.
