5* Detached Stone Cottage with a Private Indoor Pool (Not Shared)

5 Star holiday cottage with its own private indoor pool. Situated in Thorpe, a delightful village at the southern end of the White Peak area of the Peak National Park, Thorpe Cloud View cottage is a charming holiday location within the four-acre grounds of, but set apart from, Thorpe House, a late Georgian limestone grade two listed building of considerable character. The cottage, allocated the top rating of five stars, has uninterrupted views of Thorpe Cloud, at the entrance to Dovedale, the limestone gorge which separates Derbyshire and Staffordshire. The surrounding areas provide excellent walking. The picturesque Derbyshire market town of Ashbourne is just some 3 miles away; the spa town of Buxton, and the historic houses of Chatsworth, Haddon Hall, Hardwick Hall and Kedleston are all within easy access. Alton Towers, the UK’s largest leisure park is only a twenty-minute drive away. Arrival is from 3pm and departure before 9:30am.

Cosy cottage and Country Charm

Beautiful elegant cottage, wonderful ambiance and surrounded by incredible scenery. Equipped with everything you could think of and more. Owners super helpful and friendly.Pool a bonus, brilliant to chill after visiting the local beauty spots some of which are practically on the doorstep.The only downside - we only had 3 nights. Hope to visit again at sometime.

Perfect!!!

I could not recommend this place enough. It’s immaculately clean, has everything you could ever need, is perfectly situated and the views are immense. To add to that, the pool is second to none. Ray and Julie were perfect hosts, giving clear explanations of all the important info. It really is a diamond of a place and I’d definitely recommend to anyone looking for a quiet and peaceful break.

Everything you could want

This was our second visit. This is a really well-designed and characterful small cottage with a large (and warm!) private pool a short distance across the garden. There are fabulous views of the lower part of the White Peak area from the cottage, and walks from the door or from Ilam - a couple of miles away. The hosts offer a warm welcome. Another great stay.

Stress free happy days

After a long few months this stay was refreshing in many ways .from the beautiful cottage to the lovely pool,to the stunning gardens,to the really lovely hosts..im disabled and have walking dificultys which i thought may stop me accessing the pool..it didnt due to the thoughtfullness of the hosts having a easy usable hand rail ....and we made the most of the luxury of a private pool thats for sure...(alllllll for us )What made me smile and impressed us both was on the day of leaving Ray asked me if there was anything else he could do to help future guests with access to the pool... we are already planning another stay ...We highly recomend ..
