Holiday Cottages in Derbyshire and Staffordshire Cottages in Derbyshire and Staffordshire tend to be tucked away amid secret landscapes of rushing rivers and dramatic gorges.

Several have easy access to, for example, Alton Towers, Chatsworth House and fascinating, if 'touristy', Matlock. View the Derbyshire & The Peaks cottage index View the Derbyshire & The Peaks map
