Peak District Family Home

Our home is a modest and practical 3-bed room house located in the small Derbyshire village of Chinley, with stunning views of the Peak District landscapes on your doorstep. Watch horse rider and tractors pass our home.
Chinley is an excellent base to explore the North West of England as well as Yorkshire and the Midlands.
From our home you have lots of walking and cycling routes that include the village of Edale (start of the Pennine Way), Kinder Scout (start of the Right to Roam movement) as well as a canal path that takes you to the National Trust's Lyme Park.
We also less than 30 minutes car journey from the spa town of Buxton, Eyam (plague village), Goyt Valley, Mam Tor, the caves of Castleton, Macclesfield Forest and Chatworths House.
For families we are just 60 minutes car journey from Alton Towers, the musuems of Manchester, Sheffield and Liverpool as well as Crich Tramway Museum and lots of ice cream farms.
The village benefits from a regular and scenic train service to Sheffield with lots of stop at walking desitnations. London is a 3 hour train ride away.
Manchester Airport is 30 minutes car drive away.

Cosy and welcoming home that has wonderful views of the surrounding countryside. Off road parking with electric charging.
Open plan living downstairs with generous sized kitchen and living space with french doors that open up into our back garden terrace. Oak flooring, real fire, smart TV, internet, board games, SONOS and central heating.
Upstairs two double bedroom and one single cabin bedroom. Large bathroom with walk-in shower and large bath with sky light. Separate toilet.
Back garden terrace with built-in stone oven, seating area and covered seating area with lights. Fruit trees in the garden on second terrace that leads to a green roof shoffice (Martin works from home).

Currently restricted to school holidays and long weekends. In the UK we like to travel with our well behaved Spaniel. We welcome well behaved dogs yet ask that they do not go on the furniture or upstairs.

We look forward to hearing from you. 
Claire and Martin
