    Our welcome from Liz was most welcoming and informative. The breakfasts beautifully cooked and presented by Ivan were very filling and just right for providing a substantial meal for a day out in the countryside. The choice was excellent.

Property information

The original cottage has been lovingly extended using reclaimed stone to create one of Bakewell's principal homes standing overlooking the Wye Valley. This period residence nestles in over 4 acres of private woodland and gardens and has stunning views over the Wye Valley. The gardens still have some of the original fruit trees and the grounds are home to badgers and Foxes, badger watching on a summers evenings is available for guests on request.

Neighbourhood information

Bakewell is an ancient market town known as the 'Capital of the Peaks' and sits in the White Peak area of the Peak District National Park. Straddling the river Wye, this ancient town is the largest in the Peak Park. Next door is Chatsworth House the seat of the Dukes of Devonshire and the third most visited stately home in the UK. Also close by is Haddon Hall the second seat of the Dukes of Rutland and the UK's oldest fortified Tudor Manor house dating from the 12th century.
