The stone cottage dates back to the 17th Century and was originally owned by the Duke of Devonshire as part of the
Chatsworth
Stately Home estate.
The cottage is next to a track leading to a footpath into the estate, and therefore has easy access to the estate grounds and Chatsworth House itself is approximately a mile's walk away along public paths in the estate.
The cottage has stone walls and is thatched apart from one small section at the end of the building.
