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.

The property was beautiful, with everything we needed. And the pool was amazing! We all enjoyed swimming and chilling in the hot tub. We were able to walk straight up Thorpe cloud and into Dove dale, and look forward to being able to visit again to explore further. Many thanks to hosts, Ray and Julie, who were friendly and helpful.

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.

A haven in the countryside

We planned a three night stay buy had to cut it short for family reasons.We were delighted with our choice. An old cottage on the outside with modern facilities inside.The welcome pack was much appreciated. The facilities were as described. The pool was great. We booked it really, as a back up for bad weather. The only problem was that the weather was so good we only used it once and it was more like a sauna around the edge but refreshing in the water,We planned to use the pub but never got around to it. Make sure you have your groceries on board if self-catering, though Ashbourne is quite close. ‘We’walked( my wife uses a mobility scooter) to1 Ashbourne and back via the Tissington Trail. It was fine. Very happy with our choice. We have used VRBO for years and have been very happy with the arrangements. Enjoy!

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.

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 ..
