About Shepherds View

Shepherds View rests in Bradley near Ashbourne, offering inviting single-storey accommodation for two guests. Tucked away in the Derbyshire countryside, it’s the kind of place where you can properly switch off and enjoy a slower pace for a few days.

Inside, the studio-style space is thoughtfully arranged, with a double bed, dining area and a comfortable sitting spot set around a woodburning stove, ideal for cosy evenings after time spent exploring the surrounding fields and hills. The kitchenette provides the essentials for simple meals, keeping things easy and relaxed throughout your stay.

A shower room with a walk-in shower, basin and WC completes the interior, offering everything you need without any fuss. Outside, the private gravelled area gives you space to sit out and take in the fresh air, with a wood-fired hot tub ready and waiting for those evenings when you fancy something a bit more indulgent.

Off-road parking keeps things straightforward, and one well-behaved pet is welcome to join you. From Shepherds View, the nearby market town of Ashbourne is well worth a wander, known for its characterful streets and independent shops.

Venture further to Matlock for scenic walks and heritage attractions, or visit Bakewell, famous for its riverside setting and, let’s be honest, the pudding. For a proper day out, Chatsworth House is within driving distance, offering grand interiors, gardens and plenty of space to roam.

With its cosy setup and strong location for exploring the Peak District, Shepherds View makes a cracking base for a Derbyshire escape.
