The Experience
Those who appreciate English elegance will feel very much at home in this beautiful 18th-century weavers’ cottage with mullioned windows; the village is rather reassuring too with a proper green, a Grade II listed church and a friendly pub. Inside discover much light and space, a drawing room with original stone fireplace – wood-burner inside all ready to light – wooden floors, bright rugs and elegant watercolours. The kitchen is a cosy hub with warming Rayburn, terracotta tiles and dresser; there’s all you need to cook but if you’re feeling idle you can ask for a simple supper to be left. You’ll also find bread, eggs, wine, decent coffee and a jar of the owners’ River Dove honey (Sue and Victor, who settle you in, are doing their level best to bolster the local bee population). Bedrooms are up fairly steep stairs but are worth it: vast beds with linen from Harrods no less, a sweet single, books and antiques; the shower room gleams and towels are nicely thick. Chatsworth, gorgeous walking and antique-hunting await, but you could just take a book to the fecund garden through the gate – all yours.

The Square was a great find for our 5 night stay in the welcoming community of Parwich.. The cottage was very comfortable. The two main bedrooms being very roomy. The kitchen was well appointed and if you enjoy cooking, you were not short of applicances. We loved sitting in the courtyard in the morning and afternoon and made use of the garden across the road. We appreciated the garage to store our bikes. There were lots of stunning walks from the cottage and great pubs nearby. Sue and Victor were very helpful and welcoming. We enjoyed meeting them.

What a great place to stay , Sue and Victors house is one of the best places that we have ever stayed in , the facilities that they have to offer are amazing with the quality of all that is in the house being excellent.The meal that Sue cooked for us was top notch as well. We were really comfortable and enjoyed every minute of it. The inhabitants of Parwich were so friendly and although we were only there for three nights it was as if we had been there for so much longer. With great countryside on your door step this all made for a really great stay. Top marks.

Lovely surprise weekend for my birthday. We love Derbyshire. And the dog came too! This place is home from home. Parwich is a friendly place and the home is bang in the middle of the village. I loved the stone and the comfort. Squashy chairs and comfy beds. .Bit of an Aga fan so the rayburn was great and welcoming. All the comforts are there to be enjoyed and Sue and Victor, our hosts, made us very welcome . Nothing was forgotten including some honey from Victor's bees! Its the kind of place where you wish you could live. And Barbara my little dog loved the Rayburn.

Location
The neighbourhood
Local points of interest from Susan Bridgett
- Parwich itself is an active and very sociable village, the Sycamore pub is a hub of community life, there are regular film shows, art exhibitions, an annual "Gardens Open" day in June and the hugely popular and well supported "Wakes Week", in early July.
- Majestic scenery of the Peak District & Staffordshire Moorlands literally on your doorstep - a memorable backdrop to walking, cycling and pic-nicing - Tissington & High Peak trails, the Dove & Manifold valleys, the Roaches, Ilam Park and ancient Minninglow
- Carsington Water, our local reservoir, has a busy programme at its Visitor Centre and offers a raft of outdoor pursuits - bird & nature watching, kayaking, sailing, fishing. It's an 8 mile circular route, great for dog walking and you can hire bikes too.
- A clutch of distinctive market towns - fine architecture, quirky shops, antiques, farmers' markets and eateries in Ashbourne, Bakewell, Leek, Matlock, & Wirksworth. There is also Buxton spa town with its stunning Opera House and annual literary festival.
- Packed with heritage interest - the great houses of Chatsworth (and its Farm Shop), Haddon Hall, Kedleston & Calke Abbey, industrial history at Cromford Mill, David Mellor's design museum and steam train rides at Ecclesbourne and Churnet Valley railways.
- So many wonderful pubs & restaurants - it's a gastronomist's dream. Here are a few of our favourites - The George at Alstonefield, the Old Dog at Thorpe, the Shirehorse at Wyaston, the Gate at Brassington, the Cavendish at Baslow, the George at Hathersage.

We had a very enjoyable stay at the Square - very lovely, comfortable well equipped cottage in a very pretty Derbyshire village with a very good pub - what more could you want? Ideally placed for lovely walks with the dog and visiting Derbyshire villages and the Peaks. Thank you Sue and Victor for making our stay so enjoyable.
