4 Stars - Highly commended. Pets welcome.

Nestling in the peaceful backwaters of Prestwood (total population less than 30), with dramatic views of the Weaver Hills, this 18th century cottage has recently been renovated in a way that attempts to avoid the pitfalls that affect most conversions.

If you're looking for double glazing, chipboard doors and MFI furniture - don't come here! If you prefer oak panelling, exposed stone walls, genuine oak and pine doors, oak windows, antique furniture and even an original four poster bed, then this is the place for you.

The most noise you are likely to encounter is from the local sheep or our small herd of Irish Moile cattle (Britain rarest breed) which you will find in the field next to the large garden if relaxation is the name of the game, then Keeper's Cottage is ideal.

The cottage is suitable for couples or family holidays, with Alton Towers just 3 miles away, Dovedale a mere 8 miles and the stately homes of Chatsworth, Haddon and Sudbury all within easy reach. The potteries with their factory shops are only 25 minutes away.

The cottage, while retaining its old world charm, is fitted with a range of modern appliances one would expect in accommodation of this quality. The recently laid out garden, with a patio, offers space for barbeques or just relaxing.

Parking is outside the property at the end of your private drive. A car is essential due to the isolated location of the property.

Village shops are available in Ellastone and Denstone, (one mile). Rocester village has a newsagent and a small late opening supermarket. The market town of Ashbourne is six miles away and has quality stores and many antique shops in which we are personally involved.

We believe in Keeper's Cottage, we have created something quite unique in se1f catering accommodation, and welcome you to share it with us.
