About this property

Bakewell 3.7 miles. Tucked away at the heart of the Peak District National Park in Over Haddon near Bakewell, is this quirky three-bedroom cottage, Cuckoo. Brimming with characterful features such as original beams and benefitting from on-site facilities, private parking and pet-friendly living, Cuckoo welcomes up to five guests to bask in a peaceful retreat to Derbyshire. After a long day of exploring your surroundings, kick back and relax in the open-plan living space in front of a roaring woodburning stove as the allocated chef rustles up a tasty feast for the whole family. Settle down at the dining table ready to tuck in as the wine is poured, or alternatively make use of a quaint outdoor setting with private tables and chairs set within a communal courtyard to savour an alfresco affair. When the stars appear, retreat to a spacious bathroom to indulge a long soak in the tub or freshen up with a revitalising shower before completing your all-important skincare routine and retiring to either a charming super-king-size, double or twin bedroom. Escape to Derbyshire with a tranquil stay at Cuckoo.

A quaint little market town with a charming rural feel that offers a nice assortment of stores, eateries, and bars in addition to regional farmers markets. The town's historic market hall dates back to the 17th century, and a contemporary recreation facility with a pool is close by. In the Peak District National Park, Bakewell is conveniently located for visiting this stunning area. Within reasonable driving distance are Britain's top theme park, Alton Towers, as well as the rocky Black Peak and the softer limestone White Peak. The spectacular caverns in neighbouring Castleton and Little John's burial site in Hathersage are both well worth a visit, as are the other stately homes to be visited, including Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, and Hardwick Hall to name a few. See the spectacular Edwardian Opera House in Buxton, which was created by Frank Matcham, who also created the London Palladium.

    It was so homely and with the handyman and his being around he helped us with a few minor problems. A few minor problems that could be added or fixed a Pizza cutter No logs or notice on sykes website to bring your own. The offer to order some inadvance on sykeswebsite would have helped. Postcode not correct as it covers big area. Sykes needs to modernise and Use just 3 words. No sign for the cottage on the road. Use bakewell retreat in Google maps as the cottage isn't recognised. Rang sykes emergency line asking for help but no one still has rang me back.Sykes this needs to be investigated. We spent over 1 hour looking for a cottage. Very obvious sykes haven't used their own directions to find the cottage. I have used sykes a few times but sykes advertisement and lack of knowledge of the property let us down this time.

Everything was just perfect!! :)
