Rent Villa Navy Pea Derbyshire
Holiday Home Rental Description
Although you’re surrounded by the fields and fells of Derbyshire’s peaceful countryside here, this family-sized home is just a fifteen-minute drive from the centre of Derby. You’ve got cycleways and walking trails on your doorstep, and museums of industry, galleries and a beautiful gothic cathedral to explore in nearby Derby.
On arrival, this place rises up like a striking, red-brick barn. The lawns are vast – perfect for kids that want to run around and let off steam. The back garden is home to a private hot tub for post-walk soaks and outdoor dining on the patio overlooking the bucolic Derbyshire scenery.
Inside, the design embraces the country aesthetic with a wood-burning stove in the brick fireplace in the living room, arrow-slit windows showing how thick the stone walls are, and old wooden lintels on display in the sloped bedrooms. The kitchen is modern farmhouse-style with an island providing plenty of room to prep for big family meals, and the dining room is a delightful place to gather on plush velvet chairs. An added bonus is the deep soaking tub in the man bathroom – the ideal tonic for a day walking in the country.
