About this property

Luxury Cottage Sleeping 8, Pet Friendly in Historic Village of Tideswell.

Boasting two wood burners and a heated summerhouse, this fantastic property is perfect for families or friends to get together.

Located in the delightful village of Tideswell, in the heart of the Peak District National Park, Acorn Cottage is a spacious, end-terraced property in an elevated position. It benefits from a beautiful raised garden complete with a heated summerhouse, just perfect for those summer evenings.
This characterful and homely cottage has many original features and oak beams; it is comfortable and furnished to a very good standard throughout, with the added luxury of wood burners for the cosy winter nights.
The Master bedroom with en-suite bathroom has double doors opening directly to the enclosed garden and sun-trapped Patio, a perfect start to the day!
One of the four double bedrooms is located on the level ground floor and has an adjacent shower room; this facility is particularly popular with those requiring ease of access.
Famous for its magnificent 14th century church, known as ’The Cathedral of the Peak’, Tideswell is a large village set in midst of glorious countryside, the attached images reflect the local countryside and its famous limestone dales.
Tideswell makes an excellent base with its traditional pubs, restaurant, coffee shops, delicatessens, and a Local supermarket. Each May, Tideswell Food Festival is held with an array of stalls and entertainment; Well Dressings and Wakes Week are held in late June to early July.
The ever popular market town of Bakewell is home to the magnificent historic houses of Chatsworth Estate and Haddon Hall, Buxton with its Pavilion Gardens and Opera House can be reached within 15 minutes.
There are some stunning walks through Tideswell Dale, where there is a nature reserve; this leads out onto the Monsal Trail – a popular Peak District walking and cycling trail. The Limestone Way also passes through, and with it heading south, it can take you all the way to Rocester on the Staffordshire border, or north to the beautiful honeypot village of Castleton and Mam Tor, which is around 7 miles away.

A wonderful house with a beautiful garden and has all the items you need. The downstairs bedroom was a extra help for elderly relatives. The host is so helpful and lovely to deal with. Tideswell has lots of eating out and such a pretty village. Highly recommend a visit.

Cannot fault Acorn Cottage in any way. Clean, tidy and great facilities. A real treat to stay in. Mattresses were so comfortable and armchairs and sofas too. Garden is beautiful although we didn't get too much opportunity to use it. Feel thoroughly refreshed after a week here. Stuart was very helpful from day 1 of booking.

A spacious cottage full of character in picturesque Tideswell
As soon as we walked through the door we felt at home. Full of character, beautifully furnished and all the utensils you needed for a memorable stay. Stuart was an excellent host and was always available to answer our queries and provide invaluable information about the local area. Our trip was a post-lockdown family reunion so for my older father the downstairs bedroom and bathroom was ideal and was referred to as the paternal wing. We enjoyed family meals at the large dining table and then relaxing in the cosy sitting room. The mature garden on several levels was beautiful with different areas to explore. Unfortunately, due to the inclement weather we were unable to enjoy it to the full. Tideswell had everything we needed, and we enjoyed eating out at the Star and the Anchor. We visited Cauldwell mill, a trip on the peak railway, Eyam and its museum, Crich tramway, Asbourne, Bakewell and Buxton. We had a wonderful time in this lovely family home and were sad to leave. We hope to return one day. With thanks and best wishes, Lauren, Dave, Brian, Ali and Ray.

A very pretty property inside and out, in a lovely village setting. Facilities were as described and there was everything that you could need for a week away from home. Parking can be a little tight if events are happening in the village but a short walk solves this.

Fabulous cottage perfect for a family gathering
Very pretty cottage in a lovely village. We were a party of eight adults and the cottage comfortably accommodated us all. Warm and welcoming and very well equipped throughout. Great wood burner for the cold winter evenings!! Lots to see and do in the area from walking in the Peaks to visiting Chatsworth House. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic cottage. Pretty village.
Acorn cottage was lovely. Everything you needed was there. Beautiful home and very comfortable. Loved the garden on the summer evenings and the summer house was a definate bonus for those early morning cuppas. We will definitely be back. Would highly recommend it to everyone. The village is pretty. Elliotts the fish and chip shop is a must visit for the food and the entertainment. The George Inn is very welcoming for food and drink. Plenty to do in area and lots of pretty walks.

Wonderful well equipped cottage. Spacious enough and perfect layout for a family gathering.
Acorn cottage is Located on a quiet lane overlooking the village with a beautiful terraced rear garden perfect for sitting in the early morning sun with coffee or enjoying an evening glass of wine. The cottage interior is to a high standard and at the same time comfortable and welcoming. The lay out was perfect for our nervous dog as she could sleep in the corridor outside the ground floor bedroom which we occupied -so no fretting. We enjoyed a family gathering, with plenty of walks in the Peak District for the more active family members and plenty of easier strolls with tea shops for the less active. It was great to all come together back at the cottage at the end of the day to enjoy a meal around the large dining table or,weather permitting on the patio. I would recommend this cottage and will hopefully be returning.

Lovely Cosy Cottage
We stayed in the cottage as a family over the weekend of my niece's wedding. We needed a cottage with a ground floor bedroom and facilities for my mother - the bride's grandma. So it was chosen for its facilities rather than any other reason. It met all our requirements and then exceeded them brilliantly. The lounge is lovely and cosy, but big enough for all. Everything was in the kitchen the bedrooms are spacious and beautifully decorated. The beds were lovely and comfy. There was a Co-op in easy reach for supplies and the village is pretty - if steep in parts. In the summer I imagine that the garden is a nice place to sit (but we were there in the depths of winter). I would recommend this cottage wholeheartedly.

Fabulous cottage, comfortable, cozy and luxurious. Unlike a holiday cottage.
Exceeded all expectations. Much more spacious than it looks. The three bathrooms make it great for a larger group. The garden and summerhouse is the cherry on the top. A brilliant experience!

A very comfortable and cosy cottage with excellent facilities and mod cons.
Tideswell is an interesting Peak District village with plenty of good walks in the vicinity. The cottage is ideal for couples as it has 4 double bedrooms although the beds are not very wide. The wood burner in the lounge is very difficult to light and the logs that we were left were damp and consequently smoked a lot. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped. If you are eating out "The Merchants Yard", a relatively new restaurant makes for a good evening out.
