The Beauchief Hall Estate is steeped in history and descended through marriage to Edward Pegge of the Ashbourne family in 1648. Edward built the Hall in 1671, including Pegges Cottage in 1667. The Estate was owned by the family following Pegge’s death in 1679 and passed through the family by direct descent until his great grandson Peter passed away in 1836. Some years ago, Pegges Cottage was sympathetically converted from a conference venue to create this magnificent home that retains a wealth of the original character. Notable features include a working clock tower, cockerel weather vane, vaulted beamed ceilings and sash windows.
