Button Cottage is a charming detached property situated in the picturesque hamlet of Wensley, within the Peak District National Park. Originally built as workers' cottages, the structure was converted in the 1980s while preserving its historical features. The cottage's unique name stems from the discovery of buttons in its foundations during renovations. Accommodating up to six guests, Button Cottage offers three well-appointed double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a well-equipped kitchen, a utility room, and a cozy living/dining area, making it an ideal retreat for families or groups seeking both short and extended stays throughout the year.
The location of Button Cottage is advantageous for those looking to explore the surrounding attractions. Just a five-minute drive away are Matlock and Matlock Bath, known for their family-friendly activities such as Matlock Farm Park and the Heights of Abraham. Additionally, historic sites like Bakewell, Haddon Hall, and Chatsworth House are easily accessible within a 10 to 15-minute drive, while the thrill of Alton Towers is only 45 minutes away by car. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the variety of walking and cycling trails that begin right at the doorstep, including the Monsal Trail and Tissington Trail, both of which offer scenic routes and bike hire options.
Inside Button Cottage, guests will find a well-designed layout that includes a comfortable living/dining room, a kitchen with a breakfast bar, and a utility room on the ground floor. The first floor features three bedrooms, including a king-sized room and a twin room, along with two bathrooms. The cottage is equipped with modern amenities such as gas central heating, a Freeview TV, Wi-Fi, and a selection of books and DVDs for leisure. Outside, a small terraced garden provides a tranquil space for relaxation, complete with a decked area and garden furniture, while parking is available for multiple vehicles.
For those seeking local conveniences, the nearest pub, the Stag and Hounds, is just a 10-minute walk away, and the nearby village of Winster offers a community shop. Matlock features larger supermarkets, including an M&S food hall and Sainsbury’s. While the cottage is a peaceful rural retreat, it also presents opportunities for adventure, including water sports at Carsington Water and hiking in the breathtaking landscapes of the Peak District National Park. Please note that the cottage is not pet-friendly and is a smoke-free environment, ensuring a comfortable stay for all guests.
