Yew Tree Cottage is located in the heart of this tranquil Derbyshire Dales Peak District village, in its own extremely quiet and secluded grounds. Tansley lies 1½ miles east of Matlock, 10 miles from the M1 (junction 28), is conveniently placed for Nottingham East Midlands Airport and centrally placed for all The Peak District attractions.
There is off road parking and the pretty garden is available for guests relaxation and enjoyment. The cottage has striking views across the hillside towards Riber Castle and the Matlocks. A few minutes stroll from the cottage are several pubs and a restaurant all serving a good range of meals. Booking is recommended in the summer as they are very popular.
There are lovely walks to be taken from the bottom of the garden; saunter across the hill to Riber Castle, the Cable Cars in Matlock Bath and The Heights of Abraham. Haddon Hall and Chatsworth House with its spectacular grouse moors are only 20 minutes away by car. Yew Tree Cottage B&B is close to both The Derbyshire Record Office and The Local Studies Centre.
