We have been staying at Last Rose Cottage for the last 9 years, but nothing else we have tried is as good and friendly. With three generations to cater for, there is something for everyone. Each visit comes up with something new. Ashbourne is the gateway to the Dales for cycling, climbing, walks,. With Chatsworth, Go Ape, Caves and Waterworld nearby there is so much to do. It is a special farm and accommodation, and whenever we book up we are guaranteed a very warm welcome from Janet.” Mr & Mrs Soul - Chelmsford “A lovely, clean and comfortable place to stay. Very peaceful with beautiful views. So much to do in the area and a week wasn’t long enough. We’ll have to come for 2 weeks next time.” PRICES •Low Season from: - £ 280  •High Season up to: - £ 600 •Short Breaks 2/3 of weekly cost •Xmas & New Year - Special 5 day breaks (Xmas tree & decorations)- £ 630 •Dog ( extra cleaning charge- £20)
