Character cottage in the heart of Bakewell

The Space

Enter the garden through the side gate at the rear of the property, where you'll discover a charming, fully enclosed cottage garden — perfect for relaxing and secure for your dogs. Outdoor seating makes it a lovely spot to unwind on warm evenings. There’s also an outdoor tap and hose for washing off muddy paws.

We kindly ask that dogs are clean and dry before entering the cottage after walks. You'll find plenty of towels available for your use.

Step directly into the dining room, which is beautifully furnished with a blend of Swedish and French antiques. A cosy French log burner creates a warm and inviting space for dining and entertaining. A supply of fuel will be provided, and should you need more, it’s available to purchase at Torne Valley in the centre of Bakewell.

From the dining room, you enter the well-equipped kitchen, featuring a Smeg oven with a gas hob, integrated dishwasher, fridge with a small freezer compartment, and a coffee machine with pods. You’ll also find cleaning supplies, condiments, and a small table — perfect for chatting while cooking.

Cottage-style stairs lead from the dining room to a small landing and into the sitting room, furnished once again with Swedish and French antiques. A second log burner, a TV, and views of the church create a cosy space to relax.

Off the landing is the first bedroom, which has a modern style and features a standard double bed with a memory foam topper, two single duvets, a bolster, ample hangers, and a full-length mirror.

Next door is a cloakroom with toilet and sink — a pretty, characterful space with antique mirror, fluffy towels, and complimentary soaps.

From the sitting room, a second staircase leads to another landing, where you'll find the bathroom and second bedroom. The bedroom is beautifully decorated with French antiques and features a standard double Victorian bed with memory foam mattress, double duvet, and lovely views of the church.

The bathroom includes a freestanding bath with an overhead modern shower and has a charming cottage feel. You’ll find a selection of soaps, bath bubbles, and candles — perfect for a relaxing soak (perhaps with a glass of wine!).

Idyllic

A perfect location to visit the Peak District. Literally a 5 minute walk into Bakewell village. Cottage had everything we needed and a lovely little garden to sit out in. Beds were so comfortable!
