Garden with sitting-out area and garden furniture. On road parking. No smoking. Please note: This property is accessed via a steep, sloping footpath. 18 shallow and steep steps to entrance.. Tucked away in the centre of the beautiful village of Bonsall, this perfect ‘chocolate box’ hideaway has been expertly turned into a secret haven by the owner’s keen eye for interior design and renovation. Exquisite soft furnishings and furniture, along with a cosy woodburner, add to the charm and character. With two double bedrooms (one spacious and one more compact), Penny Cottage sits detached, directly on the Limestone Way where you can experience charming fields, dales, caves, cliffs, gorges, woodland and riverside paths along the route. Bonsall is a village of 1000 inhabitants in the Derbyshire Dales on the edge of the Peak District and has a long history of lead mining, possibly going back to Roman times, and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. Bonsall inhabitants have been involved in the textile industry, pre- and post-Arkwright. In early modern times it was on an important salters’ route, and was a staging post on the road between Derby and Manchester. Situated on the edge of the Peak District National Park and just a short drive from the famous Arkwright Mills at Cromford, Penny Cottage makes an ideal base from which to explore the region’s attractions. Matlock and Bakewell are close by, as is the picturesque village of Crich with its fantastic Tramway Village, while majestic Chatsworth House and Carsington Reservoir, with its sailing centre, are well worth a visit. After a day exploring, sit in the beautiful garden with a glass in hand as the sun sets over the tree-lined fields. Tearoom 400 yards, award winning pub serving food less than half a mile. Supermarkets, pharmacies etc. in Matlock, approx. 4 miles away.

Beautiful, well equipped cottage with a lovely garden in a quiet and peaceful setting. We loved our 4 nights there and would have liked to have stayed longer. The local pub is just 100 yards away and does takeaway meals in the early evening if you require them. The only downside is having to park in the pub car park and walk up a fairly steep public footpath and 14 steps with your luggage to reach the garden gate to the cottage, which is not ideal if you have disability issues. The cottage was very clean and the owner Rachel was very kind and welcoming and left us some beautiful cupcakes and milk in the fridge on our arrival. Highly recommended!

What a wonderful cottage! Possibly the nicest we have ever stayed in.
What a wonderful cottage! Possibly the nicest we have ever stayed in.
What a wonderful cottage! Possibly the nicest we have ever stayed in. Perfect location in a small friendly village, but off the main street away from noise and traffic (access is 30 yards up a steep slope with a dozen shallow steps). The "Limestone Way" path is only a few steps from the kitchen door so ideal for those who enjoy walks up in the hills with breathtaking views of the village nestling in the valley below. Great pub (dating from 1677) with good pub food and real ale is only 40 yards away on the other side of the road. Cottage has been modernised inside. Lovely clean kitchen with all mod cons, comfortable sitting room and separate dining room with large oval table. Lovely, spotlessly clean modern bathroom with roomy double size quarry tiled shower cubicle and "rainfall" type shower head delivering lots of hot water.Very efficient central heating and a log burner in the sitting room if it gets chilly later in the year. We couldn't find a local shop but large Sainsbury's in Matlock only a 10 minute drive away via the back roads over the top of the surrounding hills. I would unhesitatingly recommend this cottage for Peak District lovers. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Absolutely beautiful cottage and exceptionally clean , fitted through out with Quality fixtures and fittings. Great communication with owner and fantastic information pack. I would definitely recommend. My recommendation for future improvements to the cottage would be 1. better Wi-fi currently very, very slow. 2. Larger TV with Netflix or sky.

We loved the cosy comfort and pretty garden of Penny Cottage. We found it well-equipped and super clean so we settled in immediately. The location is great too with nice walks and a good tea room just a few minutes away. We enjoyed chatting to the cows in the neighbouring field too!

Penny Cottage is a lovely place to stay. The extra touches, cupcakes and fresh flowers upon arrival. Very clean, and with Covid, plenty of hand wash and sanitiser. Felt very at home and relaxed. We couldn’t always park on the pub car park due to us having a large truck, but could park on the street somewhere. Would definitely stay here again.
