Ollerbrook Cottages, Edale

Derbyshire, England

Tumble out of the car with your walking boots laced, rucksack packed and map in hand. Walks onto the Derbyshire peaks – Kinder Scout, Mam Tor, to name but two - start from the doors of these cottages - inspiring. Tucked into the vale of Edale in wonderful seclusion, the gritstone cottages combine original charm with a fresh, contemporary style, while beamed ceilings, exposed stone walls, deep-set windows and log fires add a reassuring solidity. Furnishings are stylish – squishy sofas, brass bedsteads, white linen, plump cushions, colourful pictures. Downstairs areas are open plan with sleek, modern kitchens. Upstairs bedrooms, though smallish, have breezy colours and great views. Thick towels in the sparkling bathrooms help ease tired limbs after a day’s walking; little touches – fresh flowers, hand-painted shutters, an oriental vase – make it homely. Climb the hills (this is the start of The Pennine Way), marvel at nearby Chatsworth House, explore the caves of Castleton. Or doze over a book and glass of wine in the cottage garden - the kids can run about in the paddock – and soak up those views. There are good traditional pubs in the nearby village too.
