In fact, the gardens are noteworthy enough to have had an entire episode of BBC's Gardener's World devoted to them. The home packs in plenty of charm from the moment you enter its grand entrance hall, with eye-catching colourful tiles, an imposing fireplace and elegant antiques. It's a similar story throughout the rest of the ground floor, with the addition of wood panelling in the reading room, large bay windows overlooking the garden in the drawing room, and plenty of light and space beneath the beautiful vaulted ceiling in the kitchen.

Host


This home is managed by Lucy

This home is managed directly by its owner who will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Lucy and her husband first discovered this home in the window of a Matlock estate back in 2009 and swiftly snapped it up. Since then, they've worked tirelessly with a team of local craftsmen to restore it to its former glory and create a space for guests to enjoy.
