Foolow Cottages - (Self Catering) Brosterfield Hall Bakewell Road, Foolow Eyam, Hope Valley Derbyshire England S32 5QB Telephone (01433) 631254 Fax (01433) 631254 Eighteenth century beamed one bedroomed cottages in outstanding village locations within the heart of the Derbyshire Peak District. Brosterfield Cottage is believed to date from the late seventeenth century. Whilst being close to the Hall it represents a detached cottage offering a complete contrast from Fern Cottage insofar as it is around half a mile from the village approached by way of a private road serving Brosterfield Farm and Brosterfield Hall. Fern Cottage is believed to date back to the 1700’s being built of stone and cement rendered. The cottage stands close to the village green and although relatively small in size constitutes a very comfortable holiday home without compromising its cottage atmosphere. Foolow is well known as being a small friendly village and guests at Fern Cottage certainly seem to enjoy being at “the hub” of village life. The village of Foolow is described in the Peak Park Tourist Guide as being one of the prettiest villages in the Peak. The "locals" insist it is the prettiest! A small conservation village with pond, Aylesbury ducks, Manor House, village green, 14th century cross, bull baiting ring, one pub, a small chapel and a tiny church. The location is ideal for exploring the many attractions of the area too numerous to mention but including the historical plague village of Eyam (a couple of miles away), the Chatsworth Estate, Haddon Hall, Ladybower (of Dam Busters fame), Bakewell, Castleton, Buxton (the highest town in the country), the lovely dales of Lathkill, Cressbrook, Monsal (and Foolow's own Silly Dale!) and the numerous edges and crags. Other areas of beauty such as Dovedale are slightly further a field but easily accessible. | ||
