I live a few miles away, so on hand if needed. WENSLEY Matlock 3 miles; Bakewell 8 miles. Wensley is a conservation village which is nestled in the Derbyshire hills just 3 miles from Matlock, with some wonderful walking and stunning views all around. Just one mile away is the conservation village of Winster which is situated within the Peak District National Park and is an extremely pretty place with a charming 17th century market house and other imposing 18th century houses on its three main streets. Less imposing, but no less endearing, are the little alleyways or ‘ginnels’ off Main Street, which are well worth exploring. The village is famous for its Morris dancers, Wakes festivities (every July) and its annual Shrove Tuesday pancake race - a fascinating spectacle! Within the village is a well-stocked community store incorporating a Post Office, and two pubs - both serving food and local traditional beer. Bakewell, Chatsworth and Matlock are all nearby and, for keen walkers and cyclists, the village lies within 5 miles of the Tissington and High Peaks walking/cycling trails and The Limestone Way. There is a bus stop at the Square, outside the Cottage, and a train station in nearby Matlock. There is a charge of £25 for a pet staying. We only allow 1 dog pet stay because we have no private garden. Strictly no animals to be left alone or on beds and sofas. Please leave the cottage tidy, clean and put away dry dishes etc. Pets are only allowed by prior arrangements, must never be left alone and are not allowed on sofas or beds. If you are arriving with more than 1 vehicle, please only park 1 vehicle in the square and others on the road. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Games - TV ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - One pet total (up to 20 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a village ### Things to do - Cycling nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99420000/99411700/99411648/97e79f35.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Dale End Cottage, Brassington Brassington - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-07&endDate=2026-02-08&selected=99411648&PinnedHotelID=99411648&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Cottage | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/27000000/27000000/26991900/26991898/c83fdf19.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Clovermead Cottage Derby - Kitchen - Washer - Pet friendly - Parking included [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-07&endDate=2026-02-08&selected=26991898&PinnedHotelID=26991898&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/113000000/112430000/112423700/112423686/5a19a291.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Host & Stay | Nine Ladies Matlock - Kitchen - Microwave [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-07&endDate=2026-02-08&selected=112423686&PinnedHotelID=112423686&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113900000/113894200/113894186/0917b07e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Peak District Getaway Retreat!
