Throughout the Peak District there are lots of pretty villages nestled in the breathtaking scenery. But there’s one tiny village located in a country estate just outside of the national park.
Imagine thatched cottages and a pretty pond with ducks floating among the reeds - it sounds like a scene from a fairy tale. It’s what you’ll find at the stunning village of Osmaston.
Located south east of Ashbourne, it’s just under two hours' drive away from Manchester and worth exploring if you’re ever visiting the South Peaks. The village was mentioned in the Domesday Book under the name Osmundestone, but it was expanded after Osmaston Manor was built in the 1840s.
