From the owner

Once you reach Owslow Cottage your holiday and the relaxation begins. We have lots to offer our guests:

You’ll love the rural location of my place with views of the Derbyshire Dales countryside and Carsington Reservoir. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travellers, families (with kids), and furry friends (dogs). My place is close to public transport but a car would be advisable.

We have Alpacas on the farm for you to get to know and enjoy an ‘Alpaca Walking Experience’ as an optional extra. We offer a 10% discount for all of our lovely guests with our discount code. Pre-booking is highly recommended!!

To the front of the cottage, your guests can enjoy a luxurious and inviting hot tub overlooking Carsington Reservoir ensuring everyone will be delighted with their stay. However, we do restrict hot tub use to the hours of 09:00-22:00 as we want to respect our neighbours, so if you’re thinking of ‘all night’ hot tub parties with lots of loud music, I’m afraid this cottage is not the place for you!

In the heart of the beautiful Derbyshire Dales and on the edge of the Peak District, Owslow Farm is a working organic beef and lamb farm and the cottage offers a combination of traditional features and modern accommodation. The property is approximately 400 years old and stands in its 400 acres. It is very welcoming and boasts exposed stone and beams, and fabulous countryside views.

A beautiful blooming enclosed courtyard of trailing colourful flowers and pot plants, comfortable rattan furniture and coffee table for your enjoyment and relaxation at the back of the cottage.

There are many facilities on the farm that can be enjoyed by the whole family, making this a fantastic property for a holiday in this area. We lamb our sheep during March and April - children are most welcome to help bottle feed lambs and calves under adult supervision, on request. We do ask that dogs are kept on a lead when walking the fields around this time of year. We are extremely dog friendly but do ask for a small charge of £25.00 to accommodate up to 2 dogs. We also have a range of animals such as alpacas, lamas, free-range hens, ducks, geese, dogs and cats.

Everything will be clean, warm and welcoming for your arrival including fresh linen, toasty warm alpaca duvets, robes and towels.

We hope that your stay at Owslow Cottage will be as enjoyable as possible.

Interaction with guest

We live in the main farmhouse which adjoins the cottage, and are there if needed, but try to keep a low profile and not intrude on your holiday. We are extremely family friendly as we have a young family ourselves, and have additional equipment i.e. stairgate, travel cot, booster seat are available for use on request. Also children are more than welcome to use the trampoline, slide and sit-on tractors under adult supervision.
