An absolute gem of a cottage, In the heart of Bakewell with the most unreal views, it actually took my breath away when I walked In, the pictures don’t do it justice! The stairs are very steep, so if you do have mobility issues this may not be for you, but apart from that, absolutely perfect! Will definitely book again :).

We really enjoyed our stay at Spa Cottage. Everything was brilliant, and the hot tub was just excellent. The house was clean and tidy and finished to a high standard.
