About the home
This former 17th Century coaching inn, set over three floors, has been restored and finished to a high standard and is full of character with stone framed windows and exposed beams.

The dining area boasts a large table for those special family gatherings. There are five spacious and stylish bedrooms and three well-appointed shower rooms, whilst outside there is a pleasant courtyard with a covered seating area and barbecue. The village pub is just next door, and this lovely property makes a wonderful base for a holiday in the Peak District.

The Heart of England / Peak District / Peak District/Derbyshire region
The ultimate in “year-round” appeal, the Peak District offers moorland countryside, picturesque villages, grand gardens and magnificent scenery. Britain’s first National Park, today the boundary of the Peak District National Park touches upon six counties and encloses 555 square miles of open moorland, flowing rivers, rolling valleys and wooded dales. Boasting striking variations in scenery, the sombre gritstone horseshoe, known as the ‘Dark Peak’, encircles the pearly-grey ‘White Peak’ limestone of the Park’s southern and central areas. Such variety makes the Peak District a perfect destination for walkers and climbers.
Enjoy anything from a gentle stroll through the ‘White Peak’ dales, to a full-scale hike across the ‘Dark Peak’s’ forbidding, windswept moors or, if so inclined, a challenging climb up a gritstone rock face. There’s also an excellent network of ‘Trails’ running through the Park connecting many attractions and places of interest, created from disused railway lines. For a day of history and elegance there’s beautiful Chatsworth House, where Capability Brown designed and landscaped the spectacular gardens in the 1760s. A visit to the lovely spa town of Buxton, home to St Anne’s Well, a public drinking fountain and source of the famous mineral water, is also a must. The Peak District’s many hospitable and picturesque villages such as Ashbourne, Bakewell and Matlock Bath still practice a range of ancient customs and traditions, including the ‘Well Dressings’ festival in the summertime. Below ground, a world of caverns and caves are waiting to be explored.
Well-known to cavers and pot-holers, this subterranean side of the Peak District offers visitors a fascinating array of guided trips around the amazing and quite spectacular caverns and disused marble and stone mines – visit Peak Cavern or Blue John Cavern, or join a magical boat tour of Speedwell’s flooded passages.
The Matlock / Bonsall area
The delightful conservation village of Bonasll dates back to the Roman times and mentioned in the Domesday Book. It is situated at the edge of the Peak District National Park, four miles from Matlock. The history of Bonsall is fascinating, with lead mining, textile production and even alleged sightings of UFOs (19 to date). There is always something happening in the village including the popular Open Gardens in June, a Carnival in July and a horticultural show in September. Walkers are well catered for with The Limestone Way passing through the village and the High Peak and Tissington Trails close by. There are plenty of amenities at nearby Matlock whilst slightly further afield is the market town of Bakewell. Bonsall is well placed as a holiday base for this wonderful part of Britain.

The house was clean and bright, facilities good. Just one hiccup with the position of the light switches and the fire alarm. Verified by FlipKey, a TripAdvisor company |
Guestbook for 2797 - Queen’s Head
A very good holiday property for us as a group of 11 friends. The beds were extremely comfortable, with quality linen and duvets. Heating was available constantly and the open fire was a great success. There was always plenty of hot water. The kitchen was well equipped and the appliances good. We would definitely use this property again.

,The location and the fact that on arrival, the property exceeded my expectations - the photos on the website did not do it justice. The owner had also left a welcome pack for us, which I thought was a lovely touch. The covered barbeque area was also a great idea, allowing y
