Reviews

Very comfortable and well equipped house. Parking can sometimes be an issue, but this is beyond the owners control.

Mr W,

Great cottage. Very clean and comfortable. Has everything you need for a relaxing time. Owners communication great

Mr B,

We spent one week as a family of four in that cottage and absolutely loved it. It's really well-equipped and super cozy but large enough for a family of four! Parking was also not a problem as we always found a spot in front of the house. It's not far by foot from Bakewell city centre, though the way back is up the hill and probably not for people with walking difficulties. Contact with the owner Helen was also great and we really liked all the little helpful notes that she left all over the cottage as it shows that she is really committed in making things easier for the guests. We would definitely come again if possible!

Mrs B,

A wonderful, clean, well proportioned property, situated up the hill, half a mile from the shops. Fantastic views from the front bedroom, Well stocked kitchen, on road parking plus a parking space further away. No probelms finding space there anyway! It was a great base for exploring and spacious rooms great for relaxing in.

Mrs C,

Kerry cottage is well situated for the town of Bakewell and has two parking options. We didn't find parking a problem but we went in September. The cottage is very clean and well presented. The lounge is very comfortable as is the main bedroom with adequate storage. The bathroom is spacious with a separate shower and bath which we liked. Personally we found the kitchen rather gloomy; we had the lights on most of the time, and a little clinical for eating in. The lack of attractive outside space for sitting was an issue for us.

Mrs W,

This cottage was particularly clean and well equipped. The owner had thought of everything, even clips for unfinished food bags. There was plenty of information and clear instructions provided too.

Mrs F,

Beautiful, spacious, comfortable and very clean cottage in a perfect location for visiting all that the Peak District has to offer. Very nicely furnished and accessorised with everything you could possibly need. Very quiet location, easy parking, short walk to town centre. Highly recommended.

Mrs S,

A very spacious clean and comfortable pretty little cottage. Absolutely everything has been thought of here.

Mrs B,

Location

BAKEWELL

Even if you have never been to Derbyshire and the Peak District, we bet you will have heard of Bakewell famed for its Bakewell Puddings made to a secret recipe. Set astride the river Wye, this is the main tourist town in the Peak District with its brilliant Monday market, local and ‘outward bound’ type shops, pubs, cafés and restaurants.

It is great to just wander around the town, sit by the river and feed the ducks, have a Pudding in one of the cafés or some fish and chips from Catch 32 in the high street. It’s just a short drive to magnificent Chatsworth House or the more homely Haddon Hall. Don’t forget to visit Caudwell’s water powered flour mill with its vegetarian café and craft shop or the award-winning Chatsworth Farm Shop.

Bakewell rivals Ashbourne in its claim as the gateway to the Peak District. Go north into the Peak and find lots of picturesque villages to visit, underground caverns to explore, cycle trails to ride and numerous country pubs. You might even venture up onto the high moorlands and perhaps spot one of the white hares on the top of Kinder Scout. Get back in time for a pint or two in Thornbridge Brewery.

Local pubs – The Manners, The Cock and Pullet in Sheldon and The Packhorse Inn in Little Longstone.
