Yelt Cottage is a pretty conversion of our redundant garage. Located in the grounds of Yelt Farmhouse it is surrounded by an area of stone flags, littered with a colourful collection of potted plants.
The cottage is compact and has been designed for couples or single people to be able to afford a quaint cottage accommodation in a beautiful walking area. We appreciate how difficult it is for individuals to find affordable accommodation for just one or two.
The entrance is directly in to the living and kitchen area, this is small but gives an adequate area for relaxing and limited cooking. Within the lounge is a double settee, small dining table and chairs and TV. The kitchen has a sink, fridge, microwave, toaster and 2 ring cooker.
The shower room is located off the living area and is beautifully tiled and fitted with a shower, wash basin and WC.
Stairs lead from the living area into a double bedroom with sloping ceilings at either side.
We offer affordable. comfortable accommodation for individuals or couples in a beautiful countryside location, close to all that Derbyshire and Staffordshire have to offer."
