This charming stone cottage has two bedrooms and sleeps four. It is on a tranquil, private lane in the small farming hamlet of Alton, in the award-winning parish of Ashover and on the edge of the scenic Peak District National Park. Perched on top of a hill, there are fantastic views over the valley towards Hardwick Hall (National Trust) and Bolsover Castle (English Heritage).

Foxglove Cottage combines the comforts of modern living with the charm and character of a country cottage. It has been furnished and equipped to a high standard whilst retaining many original features. There is an open log fire for cosy winter evenings - coal and logs are provided at no extra charge. The cottage also has its own private garden with barbecue and furniture for those lazy summer days.

We place a high priority on cleanliness and presentation - before you arrive the cottage will have been thoroughly cleaned and prepared for you. If you need any assistance during your stay there will be someone available to help you nearby. On the other hand if you'd prefer to be left alone to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of our lovely area then you'll also find this an ideal place to spend your holiday.

The Surrounding Area:
Foxglove Cottage is the ideal base for exploring all this area has to offer and visitors often comment on how centrally located it is for reaching the many attractions of Derbyshire and the Peak District. There is excellent walking from the doorstep with horse-riding in the village. The 'Crooked Spire' town of Chesterfield and the resort of Matlock Bath are both within a few miles. Chatsworth House, Hardwick Hall and the 'White Peak' dales around Bakewell are all an easy drive away. For the children there are the American Adventure and Gulliver's Kingdom. There are several excellent pubs which serve food in the vicinity - at least half a dozen of them just over a mile away in the neighbouring villages of Ashover, Milltown and Woolley Moor.

If you would like any other information about this cottage or the local area please check our website, send an email or call us. We'll be happy to help you arrange the perfect holiday or short break.  

  • There are no hidden extras in the price. What you pay covers all bedding (duvets), towels, central heating, electricity and fuel for the open fire.
  • Foxglove Cottage is open throughout the year.
  • Weekly bookings generally run from Saturday to Saturday between June and the end of September.
  • If you book a four-night short break from Monday to Friday you get four nights for the same price as a three-night weekend break.
  • We try to be as flexible as possible about start dates so please contact us to check if other days are available.
