Town Head Farmhouse, in the Derbyshire Dales, was built in the 18th Century and has now been converted to provide relaxing Bed and Breakfast accommodation in six lovely en suite rooms. Bonsall is an old lead-mining village; in the Derbyshire Dales and on the edge of the Peak District. The Limestone Way passes through the village and the Midshires Way is close. We are in the middle of the most wonderful walking and cycling country, with rare wild flowers, rocks and rivers and ancient trackways. |
| The World Heritage Site of Arkwright's Mill is two miles away and many local villages still practice the old Derbyshire custom of Well Dressing. You may choose to visit Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, Dove Dale, Carsington Water of Matlock Bath. You could spend a day in the plague village of Eyam or explore the Blue John Cavern in Castleton. For groups, we can organize activities such as pot-holing, abseiling or hacking. There's lots to do! |
Our comfortable bedrooms (4 double and 2 twin) are all en suite with 1 double bedroom being on the ground floor. Each has tea and coffee making facilities, colour TV, radio and hairdryer. Breakfast is served in the attractive dining room, where you may choose from a varied menu including full English Breakfast (free range eggs of course), omelettes or vegetarian. It is possible to book room only if you prefer. Guests have a lovely sitting room with lots of books and a log-burning stove, perfect if you've been out all day!It's also perfect for get-togethers or small parties.  We have ample private car-parking at the rear of the house, and you can walk to one of the two friendly village pubs which serve food and real ale. |
It's very quiet here, and at night you can hear owls and see the stars. Some people have even seen UFO's !!!!! You can be sure of a warm welcome, come and stay! |
