5* Detached Stone Cottage with a Private Indoor Pool (Not Shared)

5 Star holiday cottage with its own private indoor pool. Situated in Thorpe, a delightful village at the southern end of the White Peak area of the Peak National Park, Thorpe Cloud View cottage is a charming holiday location within the four-acre grounds of, but set apart from, Thorpe House, a late Georgian limestone grade two listed building of considerable character. The cottage, allocated the top rating of five stars, has uninterrupted views of Thorpe Cloud, at the entrance to Dovedale, the limestone gorge which separates Derbyshire and Staffordshire. The surrounding areas provide excellent walking. The picturesque Derbyshire market town of Ashbourne is just some 3 miles away; the spa town of Buxton, and the historic houses of Chatsworth, Haddon Hall, Hardwick Hall and Kedleston are all within easy access. Alton Towers, the UK’s largest leisure park is only a twenty-minute drive away. Arrival is from 3pm and departure before 9:30am.

Fantastic Cottage
Fantastic cottage for our short break. Communication with owner and directions to the property were perfect. The cottage was spotless on arrival and the pool was even better than the photos. The surrounding area was beautiful and great for walking. All in all one of the best short breaks we’ve ever had.

Thorpe Cottage Stay
Cottage was lovely and owners were great at ensuring we had all the info required. Our long weekend was perfect. Only comment we would make was if the check out time could be a little later. Overall we would definitely visit again and would recommend to friends and family.

Thorpe Cloud Cottage - EXCELLENT
This was an excellent cottage in a very quiet location and having our own pool was perfect. The hosts were great and on site, provided everything you needed (including a nice bottle of Prosecco) - But left us enough space to enjoy our holiday. I would definitely recommend this for a quiet, peaceful getaway and an opportunity to explore the Peak District, as the location is perfect for either walking or driving around. I am sure we will be returning !!

Great Property & Location
The cottage was even better than expected, and was warm, comfortable, very well equipped, and spotlessly clean. Set in a quiet, and peaceful location, with views of the surrounding countryside. The swimming pool was definitely an added bonus, and was much bigger than it looks on the photos. We really enjoyed our stay, and didn't want to leave.

Great location
The cottage was lovely and warm and has all the little extras you don’t always get, such as boxes of tissues, tin foil, kitchen roll etc. The pool was spotless and so warm. Garden and view was beautiful. We could easily walk to Thorpe Cloud and the nearest pub. Would definitely stay here again.
