About this property
Corner Cottage is a timeless and elegant cosy semi-detached cottage in the heart of Bakewell in the Peak District. Dating back to the 1880s, the cottage has been sympathetically restored capturing its character with its stone mullion windows yet offering 21st century comforts. This very flexible accommodation offers three king-size double bedrooms, all of which can be twins on request, to suit every party and the woodburning stove provides cosy comfort whatever the season. The cosy open plan living area adds a sociable element to your holiday and the well-equipped kitchen has everything you need. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of this delightful Peak District village, Corner Cottage is just a short stroll down a steep hill (slightly harder on the way back uphill!) to all the local facilities. With off road parking for 2 small cars you can rest assured that parking will never be a problem. The patio is the perfect place to unwind after the day's adventure and the thoughtful lighting creates a magical atmosphere. Bakewell is the home of the Bakewell Pudding and there are some wonderful riverside walks along the banks of the Wye. Corner Cottage is ideally placed to be used as a base while discovering the best of the Peaks. As Britain's first National Park the area boasts some of the country's finest landscapes covering an area of similar size to Greater London without the vast crowds! From stately homes and National Trust properties to the most breathtaking and dramatic views there is so much to offer here you will be returning sooner than youd think!
An attractive little market town retaining a delightful rural atmosphere and offering a good selection of shops, restaurants and pubs, as well as frequent local farmers markets. There is an old 17th Century market hall in the town centre and a modern leisure centre with swimming pool nearby. Bakewell is situated within the Peak District National Park and is ideally placed for exploring this beautiful region. Both the rugged Dark Peak and the softer limestone White Peak are within easy reach, and Alton Towers, Britains premier theme park, is only a short drive away.

It has all the facilities you need. Although quite a short walk to the town centre, be aware that whichever route you take the road is steep. I wouldnât recommend for the elderly or infirm.

We survived the uphill walk back from the pub. Would love to stay again!

Location absolutely fantastic Overall absolutely fantastic Will definitely return. Congratulations to the owner for providing such a lovely relaxing abode to visit. The only negative was the parking on the front it was described as suitable for 2 small cars. I think 2 Smart cars would struggle to park in the space. The road is narrow where the property is located so you have to be careful where you park.
