The Garden House

Ashbourne, Central England

Tucked away in Ashbourne, in the heart of Derbyshire, The Garden House is a cosy cottage built for two. It's a good pick for a quiet escape as a couple, with no distractions beyond your own company and the Derbyshire countryside.

There's plenty to explore nearby if you fancy a day out, including Wirksworth Museum & Association Shop and the National Stone Centre, both a short drive away, with Cromford Mills a little further on. Cromford station is the nearest railway link, handy if you're arriving by train or fancy a scenic trip out without the car.
