Cubley Wood Cottage lies in the heart of the Cubley Estate, 5 miles south of the attractive market town of Ashbourne on the threshold of the Peak District. The estate, owned by the Legh family since the 1960s, comprises mainly cattle and sheep farms, where private shooting, mainly on Saturdays, takes place between October and January. Ashbourne, with its cobbled market place, hidden alleys and wealth of high quality independent shops is a delight to explore. To the north is the National Trust's Dovedale, one of the more famous areas within the Peak District where walkers will enjoy mile after mile of paths and to the south of the town is the Golf club. Alton Towers is close-by as too are National Trust properties Sudbury Hall, Kedleston Hall and Calke Abbey.

Set in a glorious rural location down a private drive, the cottage was completely renovated in autumn 2011 with great care given to the selection of furnishings and fittings. The property is particularly suitable for a couple or family of four preferring seclusion and plenty of space outside.

On the ground floor is a cosy sitting room with feature open fireplace, digital TV/DVD and CD player. Spacious and airy open plan dining and fully equipped kitchen area including microwave, fridge, dishwasher, wood burning stove and broad band connection. There is a utility area for boots and coats with a washing machine/dryer. Cloakroom. Stairs (fairly steep) to first floor with one double and one twin-bedded room each with built-in wardrobe. Spacious bathroom with over the bath shower. Full oil-fired central heating (under-floor downstairs) ensures comfort all year round.

Outside: patio area to the front ideal for al fresco dining with lawn, borders and outbuilding/kennel and further grassed area to the rear.
