The cottages are in a lovely setting above the Dove Valley in part of the farmstead, though the delightful Cruck Cottage is private, set on its own at the side of Beresford Dale, and Grace's Cottage is found on the edge of Hartington village.

The cottages are full of comfort and character, centrally heated - some with log burning stoves - some with spa/whirlpool bathrooms and dishwashers. Garden/patio areas. Acres of space and so quiet you can hear cows munching in the fields below.

The cottages (except Grace's Cottage) are all 4 star accredited by the Tourist Board. It is attention to detail, cleanliness and comfort as well as the beautiful surroundings that keep our visitors returning year after year.

Children welcome to look after our pets Flopsie the rabbit, Ben the sheepdog and Tilly the cat - to name a few.
