ACCOMMODATION DETAILS

Swift Cottage, once part of the Duke of Devonshire's manor, is a 200 year old, visitBritain 4 star rated, warm and homely, award winning cottage situated in a prime location on the edge of the village of Tideswell, home to the 'Cathedral of the Peak'. 'Townhead', as the area is locally known, is a haven of tranquillity, surrounded by open countryside yet just a few minutes walk away from the vibrant village centre, with its pubs, shops and other amenities. One of four such properties adjoined in an isolated southerly-facing terrace, it benefits from all day sunshine and the best views in Tideswell!

The cottage is family owned and managed to high standards by Tideswell residents, offering clean and comfortable accommodation at competitive prices.

The property includes 3 bedrooms, 2 doubles and 1 single, sleeping up to 5 guests. Furnished to a high standard, Swift Cottage is perfectly situated as a base for exploring the Peak District. Enjoy the breathtaking scenery, outdoor activities, bustling market towns, vibrant cities, historic properties and the many other attractions and locations that the area has to offer! It provides everything you'll need for recuperating after a hard day in the great outdoors, sunbathing when the weather is fine or relaxing with your feet up in front of the cosy log burning stove.

To the front is a spacious enclosed patio area with scenic views over the dale, with steps down to the lane through the cottage garden. The patio is equipped with quality teak furniture for dining out and relaxing in during warm weather, watching the swifts after which the cottage is named darting about at breakneck speed through the dale as you sit back with a cool drink. Level access to the cottage is provided via the footpath from the road across the front of the adjoining properties.

Behind the cottage is a paved, elevated patio with a shed suitable for mountain bike/cycle storage. 

Parking is freely available in a shared car park to the rear of the property and on the road nearby.

We operate a policy of continuous improvement to the cottage, while always seeking to retain its original character. Electrical appliances and all carpets, furniture and beds are recently purchased and of good quality. 

The cottage will be prepared to the highest standards and will be spotlessly clean.
