Charming country cottage with stunning views, sleeping three people.

Situated within the stunning Peak District National Park, Priestley Cottage offers a luxurious escape. Part of the award-winning Wheeldon Trees retreat, this idyllic country cottage has been recognised as one of the top 10% of places to stay worldwide on TripAdvisor.

Inside you’ll discover open-plan living with underfloor heating, a fully-equipped kitchen, and a cosy living area with smart TV and Alexa, perfect for relaxing evenings. All crockery, glassware and cookware are provided, as well as essentials such as olive oil and salt and pepper. The fully-equipped kitchen comes with granite worktops, integrated appliances (including a dishwasher, hob, oven, and fridge freezer), and a waste disposal system for effortless clean-up.

Upstairs, new carpets lead you to a chic vintage-style bathroom with a walk-in shower. There are two bedrooms. The main bedroom can be set up as either a super king or twins. The other bedroom has a single bed. All linens and towels are provided. Our linen is white and Egyptian and our towels are fluffy and white.

Wheeldon Trees provides total tranquillity. The retreat boasts an array of amenities, including a well-stocked honesty shop filled with treats, Wi-Fi, an office you can use at any time, Voltshare EV charging and electric bikes for exploring the picturesque countryside. The children’s play area and games room ensure entertainment for all ages.

To enhance your stay, indulge in a pampering wellness treatment from The Feelgood Pamper Company, brought directly to your cottage.

For dining, two local pubs, the Royal Oak and the Packhorse Inn, offer delicious food and a warm atmosphere. We recommend booking in advance, especially on weekends. For coffee and cake we suggest the High Peak Bookstore and for the best ice cream you will ever taste, try Tagg Lane Gelato.

As your hosts, Hazel and Steve, we're just a short drive away in Ashbourne and are on hand to assist if you need us. We've taken care of the essentials, providing a welcome tote filled with tea, coffee, butter, milk, eggs and sweet treats.

Escape the ordinary and immerse yourself in the extraordinary at Wheeldon Trees.

A delightful place to stay
My husband and I rented Priestley Cottage for five days and invited my sister to join us. We chose the location as we wanted to be close to Buxton for the festival for which we had booked tickets for two evening events. However, we like walking and have visited Derbyshire in the past. This cottage was perfect in every way - quiet, well located and had all we needed. Hazel and Steve were excellent hosts - not intrusive, but extremely helpful. There were welcoming goodies in the cottage and my sister bought some of the local fare to take to relatives in Sheffield. We went twice for lunch at the wonderful Royal Oak - once walked there and back (7km) and once by car in pouring rain. The Packhorse Inn is also to be recommended.

A lovely base for exploring the peaks
We really enjoyed our stay here. We received a warm welcome in more ways than one, as our property was nice a toasty on arrival. The welcome package which contained milk, butter, tea, coffee, wine and an assortment of treats was up there with some of the best we've had from other places we've stayed. The property is pretty much in the middle of nowhere, so nice and quiet. On a clear night you will get a good look at the stars as there's very little light pollution. You are not too far away from well known towns like Bakewell and Buxton, which only take about 15 minutes to drive to. Also, popular walks like Mam Tor and the stepping stones in Dovedale are around 25-35 minutes away. We can recommend both The Royal Oak and Pack Horse Inn pubs that are nearby and walkable. They do great food and local beers. If you're staying when the farmer's market is in Bakewell, that is also definitely worth a visit. Overall, the property was clean, well maintained, comfortable and in a lovely location. We would recommend it as a base if you fancy visiting the Peak District.
