73 Ravensdale Cottage is absolutely delightful, set in the hamlet of Ravensdale on the outskirts of Cressbrook, near Tideswell and can sleep two people. It has a double bedroom with a Smart TV and an en-suite bathroom, a kitchen and a sitting room with a dining area and a woodburning stove. Outside there is off-road parking for one car and rear, split-level patio with furniture, a barbecue and an external WC. WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen and towels are all included in the price. No pets and no smoking. 73 Ravensdale Cottage is a wonderful holiday base. Note: The external WC is not available in winter. Note: There is narrow, single-lane access to the home. Note: The stairs to the first floor are steep and narrow, with a twist at the bottom, making the lower treads triangular in shape; there is a handrail, but care does need to be taken when going up and down the stairs. Note: Rear garden has 6 steps and there are 3 original stone steps to access the cottage from the front. Note: Adult-only.

Cressbrook is a village on the River Wye, home to a mill built in the 18th century by Richard Arkwright. A footpath upstream of Cressbrook Mill leads to Water-cum-Jolly, a river gorge with limestone cliffs ideal for walking and rock climbing. Cressbrook is on the Monsal Cycle Trail and there is also a good pub in the nearby village of Litton, which serves food. Tideswell, Bakewell and the Spa town of Buxton are all within easy reach.

The ultimate in "year-round" appeal, the Peak District offers countryside, picturesque villages and magnificent scenery. It touches upon six counties and encloses 555 square miles of open moorland, flowing rivers and wooded dales.
