Overview
Property code: OC-DCTOPS

A romantic bolthole for two, this one-bedroom cottage is an idyllic escape. It sits just outside the hillside village of Kirk Ireton and is surrounded by green fields and hills as far as the eye can see. The nearest town, Wirksworth, is 3 miles away and here you will find lots of picture-postcard buildings and narrow lanes full of history. There are also plenty of attractions including the Wirksworth Heritage Centre, The Northern Light Cinema and Bar, plus Alport Height – perfect for a romantic picnic with a view.

The property is set out all on one level. You enter the open-plan lounge/diner/kitchen with a vaulted beamed ceiling. Take a seat on one of the leather sofas, light the wood burner and settle in for a night in front of the TV/DVD. A compact, modern, fully equipped kitchen offers everything needed for a self-catering stay, while a table and chairs offers the perfect spot to dine. The next room is the cosy bedroom with a wooden king-size bed, built-in hanging space and a chest of drawers. You then have the shower room with a spacious shower cubicle and WC.

The garden is a wonderful place to relax, with a lawn and table and chairs and far-reaching views. The surrounding scenery is tranquil and full of nature.

This was a lovely place - so warm and cosy. It was also one of the best equipped cottages we've ever stayed in, with one of the best showers! Everything we needed was provided, and it was all so warm (we were there in November) and comfortable. This is a beautiful part of the world, and we'll be back.

This was our first visit to Derbyshire. The owners live next door & met us on arrive & were very welcoming. The welcome goodies were very much appreciated after our journey. The cottage met all our needs & more. Although the weather was a little unkind we found Topshill Cottage to be warm & cosy - we didn't even make use of the wood burner.

It was also really nice to have a private bit of garden, rather than being overlooked as often happens with barn conversions.
