Brushfield lies on the edge of a limestone plateau area dissected by the spectacular Monsal Dale and Miller's Dale making it a walkers and bikers paradise. Many varied circular walks can be planned straight from doorstep so you have a chance to park up your car and get those legs working throughout your whole stay!

Middle Farm is situated on a sunny south-facing hillside high above Taddington Dale. The farm lies in the midst of some of the finest scenery and walking country in the Peak District. Monsal Dale is literally just around the corner and Millers Dale is only a short walk away.

The cottages are surrounded by fields and woodland and offer diverse fauna and flora whatever the seasons. It is a bird watchers delight with frequent visitors including nut hatches, great spotted woodpeckers, long tail tits, tree creepers, buzzard, sparrow hawk and tawny owl as well as the usual common species.The newly opened cycle trails and tunnels along the former railway line are easily accessible from this base.

For the less active it is an ideal central location for visiting all the major attractions in Derbyshire including Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, Buxton Opera House, Bakewell, Lathkill Dale and all the numerous picturesque villages in the area.The area around Brushfield has been farmed since Neolithic times. Middle Farm was formerly a tenanted holding under the Duke of Devonshire's Chatsworth Estate.

The owners live in the nearby farmhouse and whilst respecting guests privacy and independence are pleased to offer any help or advice.

Group bookings available: This property is one of 2 properties which, when rented together, can accommodate up to 12 guests + 2 cots.

Five lovely days
The cottage was very, very nice in every way, location, size of the rooms especially the lounge it was ideal for four adults. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you may have needed. I would recommend it to anyone, we had a great visit, lots to do and see and then being able to come back to the footage, perfect.

A Warm Welcome and Fantastic Cottage
The care at Maigold starts from the moment you book with welcoming e-mails that let you know all will be well for your stay. We were warmly greeted by Julie on arrival and she showed us into the cottage. It was spotlessly clean, light and airy with pretty and well cared for furnishings. It has everything you need for a self catering holiday with a well equipped kitchen, comfortable living room with tv DVD player and a piano! The cottage is just 10 minutes away from Bakewell, a source of plentiful bakeries, a good butchers and a well stocked Co-op. There were chocolates on the pillows and a welcome tray of tea, coffee, sugar and locally made fudge. There were also fresh flowers on the table. There was lots of information to help us plan our stay and it this is an ideal base for walking and for visiting Haddon Hall and Chatsworth House. Sadly the weather was rather unkind but it was lovely to have a peaceful, comfortable and cosy base to return to in the afternoon. We look forward to staying again in the future.

Why they chose this property

We discovered Brushfield in 1999 and decided that this was the place we wanted to live because of its spectacular location in the heart of the Peak District. It's in a great rural setting, surrounded by fields and woodland, off the beaten track - yet close to all the amenities and attractions of the area. Initially our children loved it, because of the space and amenities it had. In their teens it was too quiet for them and we were constantly taxiing them around to their social engagements! More recently they love coming back with their friends and partners, to enjoy the qualities that attracted us in the first place!

What makes this property unique

Stunning rural location, superb views giving us peace, fresh air and space. Modern conversion that has sympathetically retained traditional features. In heart of Peak Park and easy access to all attractions. Allows us to indulge in the outdoor activities that we so enjoy.
