Tub Cottage is tucked quietly just off the main village street and only a short walk away from the local pub and shop.

However, guests are able to pull up outside the cottage to unload and load. There is plenty of parking in the village all within a short walk from Tub Cottage.
Ideally situated in the heart of the Peak District and within easy reach of the market towns of Buxton, Bakewell and Matlock.

There are superb local walks that start from the front door of the cottage and pass through Tideswell Dale, Litton Mill, Cressbrook Dale, Millers Dale and the Monsal Trail.
We live locally, so can provide advice on a variety of activities including road and mountain biking, walking, and suggestions for family and dog friendly places to visit.

We also have six friendly chickens and guests are welcome to come and meet them during their stay.
