    Hall View Cottage Stainsby Common | Heath | Chesterfield | S44 5RL HALL VIEW COTTAGE “When we first viewed Hall View Cottage nearly 15 years ago, it was the views of Hardwick Hall and the rolling countryside that sold it to us immediately. We’re quietly tucked away down a track off a country lane which makes the positioning completely idyllic and the surrounding fields very much feel like part of the garden which gives such a feeling of space,” say the current owners. This unique property is a house that offers a stunning contemporary living space built with the ease of modern living in mind. Inside, everything has been finished to a high quality; allowing for a spacious and stylish family home. Hall View Cottage is a gated property situated close to the National Trust property of Hardwick Hall. Located in a peaceful rural position the home enjoys direct views over pretty open countryside.
