Ref: 1076 Wildflower Cottage   
WINSTER Bakewell 6 miles; Matlock 6 miles. The conservation village of Winster is situated within the Peak District National Park and is an extremely pretty place with a charming 17th Century market house at its centre and other imposing 18th Century houses, nearly all three storeys, on its three main streets - Main Street, East Bank and West Bank. Less dignified, but no less endearing, are the little alleyways or 'ginnels' off Main Street which are well worth exploring. The village is famous for its Morris dancers, Wakes festivities (every June) and its annual Shrove Tuesday pancake race - a fascinating spectacle! Within the village there is a well stocked grocer's shop, a Post Office/Gift Shop and two pubs - both serving food and local traditional beers. Bakewell, Chatsworth and Matlock are all nearby and, for keen walkers, the village lies within 5 miles of the Tissington and High Peaks walking/cycling trails and The Limestone Way.

Aug 2007 | Perfectly situated for walking the Dales. Close to village shop, which stocks all the basics, plus more, support the shop, as the villagers own it. The Bowling Green pub is certainly worth a visit. A home from home.
