Middle Farm is situated on a sunny south-facing hillside high above Taddington Dale. The farm lies in the midst of some of the finest scenery and walking country in the Peak District. Monsal Dale is literally just around the corner and Millers Dale is only a short walk away.
The cottages are surrounded by fields and woodland and offer diverse fauna and flora whatever the seasons. It is a bird watchers delight with frequent visitors including nut hatches, great spotted woodpeckers, tree creepers, buzzard, sparrow hawk and tawny owl as well as the usual common species.The newly opened cycle trails and tunnels along the former railway line are easily accessible from this base.

Middle Farm was formerly a tenanted holding under the Duke of Devonshire's Chatsworth Estate.

One well behaved pet can be brought by arrangement. A supplement of £20 applies for short breaks and £30 for week long breaks, payable on arrival. Please ensure your pet is kept off the furniture, is not allowed in the bedrooms, and is never left alone in the property. If booking both properties, we also ask that in Albertine you keep the lower stair gate closed, so that it cannot access the upstairs areas.

Getting around
Ashford in the Water, just down the road from Brushfield, is a delightful traditional Derbyshire village with all the basic amenities including post office, village store / delicatessen, hotel, restaurant and public house. Enjoy a stroll by the river and across the Sheepwash bridge and be sure to visit the beautiful Church which dates back hundreds of years.
Bakewell, capital of the Peak District is only a few miles away. Agriculture is still the basic activity and the Monday cattle market is one of the largest in the country. It is an attractive market town, so pop in for lunch, take a walk by the river, visit the Bakewell Pudding shop or do a little shopping, it’s well worth a visit!
