Thimble Cottage, Youlgreave lovely stone cottage for 2 with Woodburner and Wifi

Thimble Cottage is a beautifully well equipped cottage for two and has a wood-burner & squashy leather corner sofa in the sitting room for lovely cozy evenings in and comfortable king size bed.

We have included many luxury touches including fluffy monogrammed robes & towels, Egyptian Cotton bedlinen, Denby crockey and underfloor heating in the bathroom and sitting room.

We welcome well behaved pets; the rear courtyard garden is ideal for pets as it's totally enclosed and there are many fabulous walks from the doorstep.

A new kitchen and bathroom were sympathetically installed in 2018 to include shower over the bath and granite topped kitchen.

The cottage is conveniently located in the heart of one of the prettiest villages of the Peak District and within walking distance of the 3 village pubs, general stores and the cake shop Peak Feast is just around the corner which sells delicious take away coffees, teas and hot chocolate.

Lovely Stay in Youlgreave
The cottage was an ideal base for visiting lots of locations in the Peak District. After a days walking it was lovely to sit with the log burner going.

Cosy accommodation in excellent location
The location of this property is excellent with great walks on the doorstep and, despite it being a fairly small village, 3 pubs, 2 bakeries and a village store all within a few minutes walk. The property itself is cosy and very comfortable. The owner is excellent - very responsive when we had a small issue to resolve. Worth noting that the outside space is small (as advertised) which might not suit all dogs.

February Stay in Youlgrave
We had a fantastic short break - the cottage is nice and cosy and perfectly located in the middle of the village. Opposite one pub, a few minutes walk from two others, great walks from the doorstep and a bus from the village gets you into Bakewell in 10-15 mins. Thanks Rachel!

The cottage was cosy with everything we needed including off street parking. We had some wonderful walks starting outside our front door. Close to towns and attractions. Rachel was a great host and kept in touch in touch to check everything was ok. Would recommend highly.

Perfect long weekend break...
The other reviews say it all - perfect cottage for two and ideal base for exploring the Peak District. Super location if you have a dog and our 'Charlie' enjoyed all the walks down by the river - plus you get to choose any one of three pubs to end your walk! And that's just staying local - we also did Chatsworth House (a must, super day out), Bakewell, Matlock and the Monsal Trail. Overall a fab few days, we were lucky with gorgeous September sunshine and I thoroughly recommend this cottage.

Lovely little cottage . The courtyard garden is smaller than I anticipated, which with a dog was a little bit of a problem for me. Apart from that a lovely stay .

Great little cottage in a really nice village location. Warm and cosy. Well equipped. Well maintained. Really nice walks straight from the door. Just enough facilities in the village to mean the car was little used (good news). Only slight niggle was quite a lot of rules seemingly. I am sure they are required, however.

a cozy cottage, an ideal base for exploring the Peak District.
a nice walk in the county, good food in one of the 3 excellent village pubs, and a bottle of wine snuggled up on the sofa of this lovely cozy cottage. The bed is so comfortable for a good nights rest after a full day. A lovely cottage in a lovely village.

Fabulous
Just what we were looking for - this cosy cottage is in a lovely village set in a beautiful part of the country, with country walks from the front door, pubs and village stores for supplies and good food. Nice walk into Bakewell which is also a lovely little town. Cottage was great - had everything you need for a couple of days downtime. Has been nicely updated. Exceptionally comfortable bed. Take your own condiments though! Owner was friendly and helpful in her communication.

The perfect little cottage in the perfect location.
This was our second visit to Thimble Cottage as both my wife and I really enjoyed our stay last time. The cottage itself is small but absolutely perfect for two people and has everything you could wish for, and sitting by a log fire with a glass of wine of an evening after a long walk is the best way to round off your day. My only complaint is that the bed is so comfortable that it is almost impossible to get out of it in the mornings!

Perfect cottage for a short break!
Thimble Cottage is situated in a lovely friendly village with a couple of good local shops and three pubs. Lovely walks close by. The cottage itself is small and quaint and very cosy. The woodburner was a real treat on the cooler evenings. The bed was really comfy with crisp clean bedding and plenty of drawer and wardrobe space. The bathroom facilities were good, lovely touches of ample shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. The kitchen provided all the mod cons you would need to self cater even though we chose to eat out.. The garden yard was very small but I am sure would be quite pleasant to sit out in on a warm evening. I would definitely recommend staying at Thimble Cottage for the quaintness, the village and good to have parking close by.

We Love Thimble Cottage
We did the long walk from the cottage to the Bulls Head at Monyash but added in over Haddon too. Dinner at farm yard inn. Kayaked at Carsington waters and walked round Carsington too. Just had such a wonderful time
