Step straight out into the beautiful White Peak countryside from Hawthorne Cottage, ideally located just a stone's throw from the famous duck pond in Hartington. With private parking at the cottage, you can leave the car behind and spend the day discovering the village, surrounding dales and miles of walking country right from the door.

Explore Hartington itself, with its historic marketplace, independent shops and famous cheese shop, before following the River Dove through the spectacular limestone scenery of Beresford Dale and Wolfscote Dale. For a longer adventure, head towards Dovedale and its famous stepping stones, or pick up the nearby Tissington Trail for an easy-going walk or cycle through the White Peak.

Hawthorne Cottage is also well placed for exploring further afield, with Buxton, Bakewell and Ashbourne all within easy reach. Whether you spend your days walking the dales, exploring Peak District villages or simply enjoying Hartington at a slower pace, there's plenty to discover without travelling far from your cottage.
