Elm Holiday Cottage 1 bedroom sleeps 2 + 3 – is also over one floor and has a romantic four poster bed. There is a luxury sofa bed in the lounge, which although open plan for day can be screened off at night. Elm holiday cottage is one of the most popular of our Derbyshire Holiday Cottages for couples who like walking – coming back to its cosy comfort after a day in the Peak District is like coming home.

If you can tear yourself away from the lovely setting of Paddock House Farm Holiday Cottages and go out and about from your holiday cottage, the Peak District National Park awaits you. Along with spectacular walks, there are lovely little villages to explore as well as the spa towns of Matlock and Buxton and the pretty little town of Ashbourne, known with good reason as the Gateway to the Peak District and marks the start of the Tissington Trail. If you enjoy stately homes you will be in heaven, with Haddon Hall and the stately Chatsworth House nearby. Film fans will recognize Chatsworth as Pemberley in the 2005 adaptation of Pride and Prejudice but even without that moment of fame, it is a spectacular house that takes several days to explore completely. For the more adventurous, it would be a shame to be staying in a Derbyshire holiday cottage and not visit Alton Towers for some of the best white-knuckle rides in the world.
