The Parlour is a cosy Shepherd's Hut in the village of Denstone. If adrenalin is what you seek then despite our peaceful location, we are an only 3 miles from Alton Towers. The market town of Ashbourne, the gateway to the Peak District, is twenty minutes away, so we are an ideal base from which to explore the area. We particularly like Dovedale, Bakewell and Hartington and Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall or some of the local National Trust properties such as Calke Abbey are not to be missed.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.

    The Parlour is very charming and perfectly located on a lovely farm. Though it sits beside the host's house, it's situated to provide plenty of privacy. The hosts are super helpful and I'd definitely recommend using the Swedish hot tub. The hosts...
