About
Derby Base is the perfect base for your Blue Derby Mountain Bike and outdoor wilderness experience.
Situated in a central yet quiet location just off the main road - a short walk (or pedal) to the pub, village shops and famous Blue Derby Mountain Bike Trails. Derby Base is a 3 bedroom miners cottage that’s been kitted out with mountain bikers in mind accommodating up to 7 people in comfort - all orthopaedic beds and no bunks! |
Derby Base has a cosy, carpeted lounge area with comfy chaise lounge, slow combustion fireplace (plus heat pump), WIFI, flatscreen TV and DVD player.
The kitchen is fully equipped including espresso coffee machine, dishwasher, slow cooker, sandwich toaster, full-size fridge/freezer, microwave, electric stove, Bluetooth speaker and everything else you'd expect to find by way of kitchen necessities (even a good sharp knife!). The main bedroom has a queen size orthopaedic bed, second bedroom has 2 x orthopaedic king single beds and the third bedroom has 2 x orthopaedic king single beds and 1 x orthopaedic single bed - all with quality linen, warm doonas, wool blankets and an array of pillows to suit most tastes. The north facing front of the house has a great sunroom off the main bedroom set up with comfy chairs and table - the perfect spot to enjoy a cuppa and get into one of the books from the bookcase. There's an outdoor entertaining area with timber setting, BBQ and chimera - an ideal spot to share trail tails. The bathroom has bath and shower (over bath) with timber vanity and plenty of hanging space, with a separate 'throne' room. The laundry is equipped with washing machine and dryer for your use and there are wall hangers for 4 bikes (plus there's a lock up shed out back with plenty more bike storage space and some bike maintenance tools for when things go awry). There's a portacot and high chair available for guest use (but you'll need to bring your own linen). Along with the single open garage for a small car, there's a fenced yard with plenty of room for parking plus bike washing facilities. |
