3 Bed Cottage in Bakewell

About this property

Perfectly positioned for families and groups planning to explore Bakewell and the surrounding Peak District National Park together, this charming home sits just moments from the River Wye and the town’s famous pudding shop. Step outside to find cafes, traditional pubs, and independent boutiques all within just 500 metres, or wander along the riverside and across the stone bridge for views of the church and surrounding hills. From your doorstep, you can join scenic walks to Ashford-in-the-Water (1.5 miles) or Monsal Head (2.5 miles), or venture further to historic Chatsworth House (3 miles) and Haddon Hall (2 miles). Bakewell is an ideal base for walkers and outdoor enthusiasts alike, offering both peaceful countryside and lively local charm, with something beautiful to discover in every direction.

Step inside and kick off muddy walking shoes in the tiled hallway; you’ll feel instantly at ease in this warm and welcoming family home. The dining room is a charming space for gathering, where soft lighting and a decorative fireplace create the perfect backdrop for long meals and celebrations. Wander through to the lounge, a cosy retreat with comfortable seating, another feature fireplace, and a second table ideal for relaxed breakfasts or evening games. The spacious kitchen brings everyone together, thoughtfully equipped with everything needed for a self-catered stay, including a walk-in pantry and a separate utility space. Completing the ground floor is a family shower room, perfect for refreshing after returning from outdoor adventures. At the end of each busy day away, head upstairs and retire to a choice of four restful bedrooms: a king size, a double and a cosy twin, with a cot room perfect for any extra-little ones. Serving the bedrooms and completing the interior is a well-appointed family bathroom with a shower and separate bath.

Outside, make the most of the wraparound patio garden where far-reaching views over rooftops and hills offer a charming start to each day. Bistro-style furniture sets the scene for al fresco meals, secure storage for bikes and outdoor equipment makes adventuring easy, and guests will also benefit from private parking for two cars.
