The cottage's location near Eyam, also known as the "Plague Village," offers a unique historical perspective for guests. During the bubonic plague outbreak in 1665, the village chose to isolate itself to prevent the disease from spreading, a story documented in the local Eyam Museum. Apart from its historical significance, Eyam is a charming village with stone cottages, a historic church, and welcoming pubs and tea rooms. The surrounding countryside also provides ample opportunities for walking, cycling, and wildlife spotting.
Staying at Bretton Cottage places guests at the heart of the Peak District National Park, England's first national park known for its stunning landscapes and recreational opportunities. A short drive away is the Chatsworth House, a magnificent stately home with expansive gardens. Other nearby attractions include the picturesque village of Castleton, known for its beautiful caves, and the iconic Peveril Castle. Whether you're a nature lover, a history enthusiast, or simply looking for a peaceful retreat, Bretton Cottage serves as an excellent base for exploring the captivating Peak District.
