Escape to the Peak District National Park!

Silk Cottage offers comfortable holiday accommodation on the edge of Eyam. It is a lovely retreat and somewhere to get away from the stresses of life. Whether you want to enjoy the many physical activities available to you within the Peak District or to just sit and relax looking out onto open countryside, Silk Cottage is perfectly located.

Detached and with its own parking space to the rear, the cottage was formally part of an old silk mill built in 1735 and is now converted into a well-appointed cottage sleeping two people. The mill was where Ralph Wain discovered how to weave silk on both sides in 1785. In the apex of one of the walls is a pigeon loft which was used by carrier pigeons to send messages to suppliers of silk in Macclesfield.

The cottage looks out up to Eyam Edge, the dividing line between the White and Dark Peak areas, making it an ideal base to explore the entire Peak District. To the rear, up Tideswell Lane, are gentle walks with paths over small walled fields.

Whatever your reason for visiting the Peak District, Silk Cottage provides you with homely, well-appointed accommodation in a picturesque setting.
