    We also visited Bakewell, which was around an hour. Worth noting that the key entry information needs updating from Syke’s as it was not easy to locate upon arrival. We had problems with the shower and washing machine but the host is absolutely lovely and was straight onto remedying these and I believe has long term plans to make changes. Steep stairs particularly to the top bedroom. Beds were comfortable after long days, close to all the shops. if you’re looking for a place to lounge around in probably not for you but if you need functional then it suits this purpose.

    She stepped in very last minute to take us in as our booked accommodation fell through leaving us in a bit of a panic. She even bought us some milk, bread and cookies for when we arrived at the property late that night. Any type of question or minor issue she was very quick to get back to me and help me out as much as possible. Sadly we didn't get a chance to experience the property as much as we had booked for as I had an accident the night before we were due to check out and had to spend the night in hospital. The following day when I got out of hospital by the time I got back to the children it was way past check out time at the property I had sent her a message to say that I'd been in an accident and had not been able to get back to the property to get our bags as well as everything else that wasn't even packed. She was very understanding about the situation and got someone to go to the property and pack up our belongings and then bring them to me almost 10 miles away she was absolutely brilliant! I would definitely recommend this property and Jennifer was an absolute star!! I'll definitely be coming back again when I'm next in the area x
