Throwley Hall Holiday Cottages, Ilam, Derbyshire, Peak District

Throwley Moor Farmhouse sleeps 4-13 on a working farm.
Throwley Cottage sleeps 2-7 in its own grounds.

NB: the cottages are neighbouring properties on different sites of the farm but, booked together, create a wonderful meeting place in a central UK location. They share the same postcode.

If you like the idea of holidaying on a Peak District working Farm, historic Throwley Hall is an ideal setting, with large open spaces, stunning scenery, wildlife and outdoor activities right on the doorstep. Wake up to the sounds of baby lambs bleating and young cattle lowing, right outside your window. Surrounding villages offer good pubs and restaurants and some allow dogs.

For those who enjoy walking and cycling, Throwley is between Dovedale & Manifold Way, direct access to the Manifold Trail and Dovedale via Ilam.

Bakewell, Leek, Buxton and Matlock are within easy reach if you fancy exploring this beautiful area or treat the family to a fun day out at the world famous Alton Towers, just 20 minutes away.

Throwley Moor Farmhouse has spacious sociable areas for guests to enjoy: large lounges provide a great place for all generations to make some memories in the cosy ambience of the open fire.
Dining tables in the kitchen add to the full facilities for preparing a large group meal but, if you would prefer, owner Sue can provide contact details for outside caterers to come in and do it all for you.

Throwley Cottage has a comfy sitting room with a real fire and wooden beams offering choice and variety for all ages.

Bedrooms have a mix of doubles, singles and twins across both houses with extras available for children and babies. Bathrooms are plentiful with provision on both ground and first floors, ideal for guests who are less mobile or youngsters. Both properties have well equipped kitchens and washing machines with tumble driers housed in a separate laundry in the farmhouse.

On warmer days, why not take advantage of outdoor seating with the south facing level lawns, patio, barbecue, tables and benches while making the most of the spectacular views. Or for the more energetic, water sports are available at Rudyard Lake and Carsington Water.
