2 Bed in Brassington (oc-dcgrif)
Griffedale is a super barn conversion that is finished to a very high standard. Behind its picture window glass wall, it has a wonderful interior with stone flagged and oak floors, luxurious soft furnishings, beautiful lamps, carefully selected artwork and feature pieces of furniture.
Griffedale is one of a group of cottages – a former farmhouse and its associated buildings – in a remote valley with lots of walks right from the door and the High Peak Trail passing by on the top of the field. Close by is picturesque Brassington village, with its jumbles of cottages and great pubs. Nearby Carsington Water has water sports, cycle trails and birdwatching and historic Wirksworth is a super little town where you can explore its heritage trail and railway, range of local shops, pubs, restaurants and even a small cinema.
This is a glorious part of the Derbyshire Dales, close by the Peak District National Park, where it is very easy to get away from the crowds. You might just fancy Matlock Bath with its cable cars and riverside prom or nearby Cromford Mill in the Derwent Valley World Heritage Corridor. Magnificent Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are just up the valley or there is always Bess of Hardwick’s amazing hall, Bolsover’s brilliant castle and even Robin Hood’s Sherwood Forest.
