The Old Pump House

Kirby-In-Ashfield

Derbyshire, East Midlands, Nottinghamshire, Peak District

The Old Pump House is a beautifully restored and truly unique countryside retreat set in Annesley Village, between Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Hucknall. Combining stunning original features with contemporary style, this remarkable property offers a tranquil escape for families, friends, or couples looking to explore Nottinghamshire.

Accessed via a private lane, guests are welcomed by ample off-road parking and the characterful exterior of this former Victorian pump house, built in the late 1800s. Step inside to a grand vaulted hallway, where exposed wooden and metal industrial beams celebrate the building’s heritage. A striking glass floor panel reveals the original well beneath — a true talking point.

The bright, modern kitchen is fully equipped with integrated appliances, a breakfast bar, and a handy utility room. Dine together beneath the mezzanine in the elegant dining area, then relax in the spacious sitting room where bi-fold doors open onto the garden.

The ground floor hosts two spacious bedrooms and a sleek family bathroom. Upstairs, four further bedrooms await, including one king-size and three doubles, each featuring original windows and stylish décor. Two benefit from en-suite shower rooms, while a mezzanine bedroom includes a sofa bed and an en-suite with a beautiful free-standing bath.

Outside, unwind in the large garden with views across Newstead Country Park and Newstead Abbey, or enjoy a soak in the private hot tub as the sun sets.

Annesley Village offers scenic walks from the doorstep, while nearby Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Hucknall provide shops, pubs, cafés, and restaurants such as The Badger Box, Porterhouse by Barlow’s Steakhouse, and Moda Italian.

Explore nearby attractions including Sherwood Forest, Hardwick Hall, Newstead Abbey, and Nottingham’s many highlights — from Nottingham Castle and the City of Caves to the Motorpoint Arena and Theatre Royal. With easy access to the M1, the Peak District National Park is also within reach, offering breathtaking walks and historic landmarks like Chatsworth House and Bakewell.

Discover timeless charm and modern luxury with a stay at The Old Pump House.
