2 Bed Cottage in Bakewell

About this property

Idyllically situated on the outskirts of Bakewell, Derbyshire, this charming cottage offers a tranquil retreat for a family of four, surrounded by beautiful countryside and peaceful nature. Stroll into the town centre to wander the cobbled streets leading to independent shops, cafes and riverside walks. A 5-mile drive takes you to the majestic attraction of Chatsworth House. Standing grand against rolling parkland, Chatsworth’s art-lined halls and sculpted gardens are perfect for a leisurely afternoon. For eager walkers, follow the 3-mile circular route of Shacklow Wood, which can be joined in Bakewell. The route is very popular for birding and hiking, so you’ll surely be in good company. Alternatively, take on Solomon’s Temple (13 miles) and be rewarded with far-reaching views across the Peak District. Finish each day with the town’s namesake dessert, Bakewell pudding, which can be picked up at many local bakeries.

Enter this charming single-level home through the garage, where you will find plenty of storage space for bikes and walking gear. From here, discover a light and bright kitchen that is well-equipped for rustling up dishes with the produce you sourced on your travels. Enjoy your meals around the table in the lounge/diner before retiring to the reclining sofa. This room is set up for pure relaxation, with comfortable furniture, traditional decor and a Smart TV.

As night draws in, discover the two charming bedrooms − a peaceful double and a delightful twin. Finishing the layout is the well-appointed shower room and WC. Outside, the enclosed patio garden is ideal for sitting in the morning sunshine with your first cup of tea. Gather around the table for nibbles and snacks or steal private moments with a novel. The property benefits from private parking for two cars.
