  • Mr Airdrie

    An amazing quirky little cottage, so well equipped and clean. Located perfectly for walking and a short walk into the centre of Bakewell. Highly recommended.

  • Ms Draper

    A Lilliputian home but well thought out and well equipped with more than enough for our mini break, right by the Monsal Trail and 5 mins walk into Bakewell centre. Cosy and comfy, we enjoyed our April stay.

  • Geoff and Julia, Leicestershire

    What a great find. We came to Bakewell as Julia's grandma was born here ( long since passed on ) to see the Christmas lights switched on, cancelled with no reason given. The Old Weighbridge is a hidden gem (as you will find ). A quirky dwelling with everything you could wish for. Spotlessly clean, very well kept. Bakewell has everything one needs for a short stay break.
