Gorgeous romantic cottage retreat, with gardens & Peak District views
Welcome to Lancaster Cottage, Winster - possibly the best situated cottage in the Peak District - utterly peaceful yet an easy stroll to pubs and fantastic walking trails from the doorstep.
Built in 1701 & Grade II Listed, it oozes character and is the ideal cosy winter retreat for a romantic escape for 2.
Cosy fireplace & beams, huge settee & a dreamy, romantic bedroom with king-sized comfy bed with lovely views over the hills, plus 2 outdoor seating areas & a log cabin in the garden.

Step into a beautifully restored cottage full of character, from the exposed wooden beams and stone walls to the unique gritstone fireplace. Designed with cosy luxury in mind, it features a large, comfy sofa by the fire – the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The dreamy bedroom is so peaceful, with the most comfortable king-sized bed, black-out curtains and lovely views over the rolling hills.
For those special occasions – birthdays, anniversaries, marriage proposals or mini-moons – Lancaster Cottage is a memorable setting that provides a wonderful romantic haven all year round .
Enjoy the best of both worlds with two outdoor seating areas and a tranquil garden. The front of the cottage is car-free, offering a peaceful place to sip your morning coffee and enjoy the view, while the secluded, private rear garden is a true hidden gem. Take a walk along the secret path to discover the log cabin, complete with day beds and beautiful views of the countryside – the perfect spot to relax with a book, nap, or simply watch the birds and bees at play.
As evening falls, enjoy clear, star-filled skies thanks to low light pollution. Light the firepit, wrap up in blankets, and indulge in an unforgettable night under the stars. *****************************************************************************
