Baslow is a beautiful, traditional Derbyshire village in the Peak District National Park. The village is within walking distance of Chatsworth House, with its park, gardens, farmyard and playground. Wonderful walks, cycle-rides and pubs are nearby. A well-stocked grocery shop is 250 yards from the cottage and also in the village is a Post Office, gallery, a Methodist chapel and a 12th century church.

There are many places of interest within a short driving distance - Tudor Haddon Hall, Bakewell of pudding fame and other attractions, the Blue John Caverns of Castleton, Hathersage with its heated outdoor swimming pool and the plague village of Eyam. A lovely walk from the cottage over Curbar Edge brings you to Calver with its Craft Centre and enticing coffee shop. Bike trails criss-cross the area. The vibrant cultural hub of Sheffield, with restaurants, cinemas, museums and galleries, is less than half an hour away.
