Stonecroft is set in the heart of Bakewell close to restaurants and independent shops. The cottage is beautifully decorated and furnished and well equipped for a large group. This is a great family friendly comfortable cottage that met the needs of 3 generations and a dog. Ben the host communicated everything in good time and replied swiftly to all our questions.

We have just got back from 6 nights at Stonecroft and had such a lovely time. The cottage was perfect for two families sharing and was very comfortable. We had everything in the cottage that we needed and the owners had put some really lovely touches in all rooms. The location is perfect for all shops, pubs and walking. Bakewell itself is also such a beautiful location with loads of places to visit close by. I would highly recommend Stonecroft and would love to visit again!! Many thanks for a wonderful holiday!!

Stonecroft is a beautiful cottage in a great, central location. We are 2 families of 4 and there was more than enough room for a very comfortable week. The rooms are decorated and furnished beautifully and the attention to detail made our holiday really special - the owners had obviously worked very hard to ensure our stay was a memorable one. I would thoroughly recommend a visit!

I was fortunate to have a tour of this beautiful and spacious cottage with attractive outdoor spaces. It is set in a quiet corner of the town of Bakewell yet so close to all the many amenities. The tasteful decor and furnishings set this apart from many holiday cottages. The owners have furnished it to such a high standard and captured a classic country theme with a modern twist on all rooms ,whilst maintaining luxurious comfort throughout. It certainly has the wow factor and suitable for families friends or couples.

Our family of four had a fantastic week away in this cottage earlier this month. It is centrally located, with pubs, park and shops conveniently located only steps away. The recently refurbished cottage retains it’s character, whilst there is a stylish modern furnished interior with a very well-equipped kitchen. The owners have thought of everything, from a thoughtful Welcome Hamper with refreshments for us and even a separate hamper for our dog! There is a small fridge in the main kitchen and a spare fridge freezer in the utility room. There was one lower cupboard left empty for our food. There are three sofas in the lounge and additional dining chairs for seating if needed. A bistro patio set would be a good addition to the master bedroom balcony. The cottage was spotlessly clean and very well kept. There is a small but well maintained sunken, paved courtyard area outside the back door with two picnic benches and a washing line. Next to this is a private parking area for three cars, tucked nicely out of the way of the main streets. There is additional short stay public parking for 30 minutes directly outside the front door of the cottage. This was our family’s first holiday with our dog and, whilst the enclosed paved rear courtyard came in handy, we often walked him just across the road into Bath Gardens - a beautiful small ‘park’ for shorter walks. There is a lovely, large recreational park only 5 minutes walk away for a longer dog walk. Our boys also loved to take their football over to the goals at the park and paddle in the river there. There is also a large children play area here. We also enjoyed many great walks from the cottage, including the Monsal Trail. Chatsworth House is definitely worth a visit. Allow at least half a day and book tickets in advance online. We visited Buxton, but much preferred staying around Bakewell. We found it the best town by far. There are so many lovely small shops and pub/restaurants to visit - most are dog friendly. The Wheatsheaf pub served an amazing Bakewell Pudding! The Woodward restaurant is definitely worth a visit, but book a table in advance. There is also a Co-Op supermarket only a couple of minutes walk from the cottage for essentials. There is also a market on Mondays. Both the location and the cottage were amazing and we would definitely love to visit again in the future and maybe bring the grandparents (who would have been well-suited to the downstairs bedroom and shower room). Thank you to Becks and Ben for a wonderful stay!
