Monsal Cottage is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its cleanliness, upgraded bathroom with a fantastic shower, and peaceful setting. Guests appreciate the dog-friendly environment, comfortable furnishings, and the warmth of the cottage. The picturesque views and proximity to local attractions add to its charm. While some minor maintenance issues are noted, the overall sentiment is positive, with guests enjoying the farm setting and looking forward to returning.

Cleanliness

The cottage consistently receives compliments for its cleanliness, with guests describing it as warm and clean. The presence of an electric zapper to handle flies on the farm indicates proactive measures to maintain cleanliness.

Location

The location is highly regarded for its superb views and peaceful setting on a working farm. It is within driving distance of main attractions and walking distance of Bakewell, despite a steep hill. The farm's smell is mentioned, but it does not detract significantly from the location's appeal.

Comfort

Guests find the cottage comfortable, with a particularly comfy sofa and a warm atmosphere. Some guests mention the bed being on the hard side and the settee being low, which suggests room for improvement in comfort for some visitors.

Facilities

Facilities are generally well-received, with a special mention of the upgraded bathroom and shower. However, minor points such as missing sink plugs and the need for oven gloves indicate that some maintenance is required to enhance the facilities further.

About this property

Monsal Cottage, a charming one-bedroom retreat amid Derbyshire's rolling countryside, lies just outside Bakewell. Monsal Cottage is a wonderful pet-friendly home for a couple and their canine companion in the Peak District National Park, just moments away from the bustling town of Bakewell. You'll be greeted by an off-street parking space and a shared outdoor area with the neighbouring cottages, where you can enjoy your morning coffee amidst your peaceful surroundings. You'll find a well-equipped kitchen, perfect for whipping up a romantic meal for two, ready to savour at the dining table as you recount the day's adventures. As the evening draws in, curl up on the plush sofa and lose yourself in a good book or select your favourite show from the large TV. Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can freshen up in the contemporary shower room, before climbing into the sumptuous double bed to catch your rest ahead of another adventure-filled day. Monsal Cottage also benefits from a shared utility/games room where you will find table tennis, a fridge, a washing machine, and a tumble dryer.

An appealing little market town with a charming rural atmosphere and a good selection of shops, restaurants, and pubs, as well as local farmers' markets. In the town centre, there is an old 17th-century market hall and a modern leisure centre with a swimming pool. Bakewell is located within the Peak District National Park and is an excellent starting point for exploring this stunning area. Alton Towers, Britain's premier theme park, is only a short drive away, and both the rugged Dark Peak and the softer limestone White Peak are easily accessible. There are numerous stately homes to visit, including Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, and Hardwick Hall, to name a few, as well as the impressive caverns in nearby Castleton and Little John's burial place in Hathersage. Visit the impressive Edwardian Opera House in Buxton, designed by Frank Matcham, who also designed the London Palladium.
