Riber Cottage Video Tour

As with all of our accommodation here at Darwin Lake, Riber has its own distinctive character. This is on evidence throughout the cottage.

Cottage Features

Riber continues to prove a popular choice with groups and larger families staying with us. Capable of sleeping 7, it’s more than spacious enough to cater for everyone’s needs.

With its inviting exterior, this cottage draws you inside right from first viewing. Once you’re in, it doesn’t disappoint. As you enter the hallway, you’ll be immediately struck by the décor, which has been designed to reflect the greenery of the surrounding countryside.

To the left of the spacious hallway, an open-plan kitchen and dining space then gives you an immediate feel for just how spacious Riber is. The room includes a stunning dining table with fine leather-effect chairs, capable of comfortably seating eight people. Then, to the right, the living space features an abundance of distinctive contemporary seating, as well as a 40-inch LCD TV.

From the ground floor, a short walk upstairs takes you to the landing, which offers views over the lawns. From the top of the stairs, you can access the large bathroom, as well as one of three cosy bedrooms. These consist of:

- A large family room with a double bed, single bed, ensuite and TV

Cottage Location

Enjoying a patch all of its own in the village, Riber has been positioned to offer stunning views out over Darwin Lake.

It sits between reception and the Kedleston/Hardwick block. Conveniently, the back of the cottage opens out right onto the path that winds alongside the outskirts of the water.
