Dipper Cottage
Dipper Cottage is a luxurious barn conversion in the glorious surrounds of Monsal Dale just a stone’s throw from the River Wye. The cottage is located six miles from Chatsworth and three miles from the well known market town of Bakewell. Monsal Head is high above Monsal Dale and offers one of the most unforgettable views in Derbyshire.
Dipper Cottage has been beautifully renovated and includes a double-height reception area with exposed beams. Beyond is an open plan kitchen and dining area. There are two en-suite double bedrooms and a private walled garden and patio. Suitable for children aged 12 and over. We are sorry, but this property does not allow pets.
