The cottage is ideally located for cycling, walking, trail running, climbing and fishing or a weekend away from it all. There is a footpath from Sheepwash Cottage linking directly with Carsington Water. Footpaths from the village connect to nearby villages and also the High Peak Trail.
The High Peak Trail is a multi user off road path. It connects with the World Heritage Site at Cromford and the Tissington trail leading you down to Ashbourne.
The cottage has a downstairs shower room which is perfect after a wet or muddy day out. Plus a washing machine for essential kit washing! An outside tap to hose down bikes and secure storage are available on request.
Carsington Water has water-sports, sailing, cycle hire and fishing, see their website for more information.
We work with a number of partners who can provide guided walks and cycle rides. They have extensive experience and good local knowledge. Contact sheepwash01@gmail.com for more information.
If you are interested in running we can direct you to some excellent local routes, local events and a specialist running shop in Matlock which hosts evening runs on a regular basis. Contact sheepwash01@gmail.com for more information.
We can also put you in touch with experienced yoga teachers. They can use the lounge for a tailored session for up to three people or the out side space if the weather permits. Contact sheepwash01@gmail.com for more information.
