A beautiful setting for a cosy little studio.. We had a lovely time, arrived with milk in the fridge, tea and coffee which helped as we got there quite late! Very descriptive instructions to get there because it's actually right next to their house. Comfy bed and furniture and very warm. Thank you for having us, really enjoyed it!

I had a very relaxing and restful Christmas break at the Loft and thoroughly enjoyed my second Christmas there.. The owners were on hand if you needed them for anything, very friendly, helpful and welcoming. It was beautifully and tastefully decorated for Christmas and had everything you could possibly need. The Loft truly is a quiet and peaceful retreat surrounded by spectacular scenery. I've loved my time there and would highly recommend staying at this stunning property.

Miss Barker, December 2019

We are familiar with bradwell village and was greatly disappointed at the access lane congested with neighbours parked cars, wheelie bins kept out on tight steep lanes,not good for guests who do not like poor vision on bends ! . The property is equipped but not special the shower is very very poor. The night of our arrival we were kept awake until 3.30am when we contacted the owner , due to a garage door being left open and the wind was slamming it shut. We received no apology for this in fact we never saw the owner during our stay. It would be help to guests to let them know at the same time of key code, that the co-op store in village is under big refurbishment. Also within the accommodation grounds there was serious pot holes ,this property is not ideal for guests who care for their vehicles.

Mrs Harris, November 2019

The loft was located in a quiet spot, the loudest noises coming from the sheep.. Good location for exploring the area. The loft had everything we needed to make us comfortable.

Mr Strange, August 2019

A great studio apartment in a lovely village.. Clean comfortable. Balcony a welcome addition. Ideal for walking and visiting attractions in area.

Mrs Precht, August 2019

Our second visit, Gill and her family are very friendly and helpful, they are on hand if needed but the accommodation is totally separate from there house.. The accommodation is very comfortable and clean, we love the balcony and were able to sit out and enjoy the company of Norman the horse. It is easy to walk into the village for the pubs and fish and chip shop and the local co-op, all the people are friendly, we will be returning again next year.

A very easy to manage cottage,.. Cosy, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Very well equipped. Set in beautiful surroundings. Peaceful, but within easy walking distance of local shops etc., including a well-stocked Co-op, Village shop and a bakery. Many excellent walks in the area, from short (3/4 miles) to long distance (10/15 miles) and some good climbs (Win Hill, Lose Hill, Mam Tor, Abne Moor, etc). Cottage has an excellent shower and a south facing balcony to relax on in the sun, whilst watching the horses, sheep and lambs in the adjacent fields.

Mr Lingard, May 2019

This is a lovely place it has all you need.. And is really comfy and the bed is lovely. Will be going back

Mr Black, April 2019

Excellent holiday let equipped to a very high standard and in a really pleasant farm location.. Bradwell has some pretty walks, is conveniently located to many of the more "tourist" destinations and has several pubs in the town that serve good beer and food.

Mr Hampson, April 2019

Had a thoroughly enjoyable stay.. Lovely surroundings and comfortable and well equipped apartment.Pleasantly surprised to find a pint of milk in fridge on arrival ( a little thing but very welcome nonetheless!) Slight issue with the key box code as l could not contact the owner prior to my arrival, fortunately l happened to come across a relative who helped me but, had she not been around l would have been stuck. Otherwise, had a lovely stay and would certainly stay there again....

Mr Willis, April 2019

Enjoyed a lovely cozy week at The Loft.. A perfect base for exploring the key Peak District hills being so close to the Hope Valley. The cottage was peaceful and quiet and just what I needed for a relaxing week. It would be perfect for couples. There’s a lovely veranda, comfortable furniture and a well equipped clean kitchen. The shower room was ideal and the heating worked very quickly. The property was well maintained and very clean. I’m looking forward to coming back next year!

Mr Mcpherson, February 2019

This 4 night break was wonderful in every respect.. Booking through Sykes is so easy and efficient. The Loft is a lovely cosy, comfortable studio apartment in a beautiful location. It had everything we could have wanted and was so comfortable and warm. We were lucky with the weather which was frosts at night and 14 degrees by day in February! The area is fantastic with some of the greatest walks in the country. We will being going back!!

Mrs West, February 2019

January 2019

The loft is really cosy & comfortable.. Everything has been done to a very high standard & we looked forward to returning to the loft after a day out. The decor is lovely, the colour scheme is very tasteful, the towels are huge & fluffy, the crockery is really pretty, everything has been well thought out. It is a relatively small space but has been perfectly planned with a delightful kitchen/diner area & excellent wet room. We are hoping to visit another of the properties in the future.

Mrs Edmunds, January 2019

The Loft is a spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped apartment, with lovely views - one of the very best such holiday accommodations that I have ever stayed in.. Bradwell is a quiet village, with all essential amenities; the centre of many excellent walks and five minutes' drive from Castleton and the caverns. Staely Homes, market towns, and many other natural and cultural attractions are all within a half-hour drive. I greatly enjoyed my stay in The Loft and highly recommend it.

Mr Kenyon, April 2017

A very nice relaxing place to stay with beautiful scenery..

Mr Young, April 2017

December 2016

The Loft at Bradwell in the Peak District was fabulous.. If you are looking for total peace and quiet overlooking the fields in a small, cosy, first floor studio apartment with even a balcony, table and chairs, this is for you! The fittings and furniture were high quality and it was tastefully decorated with everything you could possibly need. Although small, there was plenty of definition between the sleeping, watching telly and kitchen area with a fab walk in power shower. It was private and only a stones throw to the village with its pubs serving gorgeous food and a few shops. Ideal for walkers but we just wanted peace and quiet after a hectic Christmas. Couldn't have been nicer and the weather was great too.

Mrs Parry, December 2016

August 2016

When we walked into The Loft it gave us the WOW factor everything you would wish for clean comfortable & all you need with brilliant views & as for the veranda again WOW you could not wish for anything more.. Ideally situated in Bradwell for plenty of local walks, bus stops to Castleton & Bakewell also good pubs in Bradwell village we will return.

Mrs Witcher

Location was excellent away from the main road and secluded. The views from the property were great with a lovely balcony to enjoy the outside. The owners were friendly and live in the adjoining property so obviously take great care of the accommodation, which was clean and warm with nice décor. We will definitely be coming back to this place because of the central location in the Peak District and it had a fantastic hot and powerful shower which is very welcome at the end of the day.

What an absolute gem! In a beautiful location and the view from the balcony and out of the skylight window was fantastic. It had everything we needed for a complete getaway holiday while being central for all our favourite walks. It was nice knowing the owner was on site if needed but she was never intrusive and that shower was amazing. 10 out of 10, gold stars all the way.

Mr Skinn

October 2015

A cosy and comfortable studio apartment. Ideally situated for places of interest to visit. We also had a balcony overlooking a field of horses and sheep which was an added bonus. Perfect for couples to stay.

The Loft is a lovely place to stay, it was very comfortable, clean and peaceful, this has been our second visit and we would definitely return. There is so much to do in the area and if you like to walk it is just perfect. The decking is a lovely place to sit with a coffee or glass of wine, watch the horses, hear the church bells and relax.

The Loft was one of the best self properties we have stayed in. Studio apartment decorated and furnished to a high standard, just right for two people. It was ideally situated for exploring the area where we found the owner and people friendly and helpful. Even the weather was kind to us allowing a glass of wine in the evenings on the balcony. Hope we can get back soon.

Had a lovely short stay at the Loft all the facilities we needed and to a very high standard. Sitting on the balcony in November was a plus and the views were amazing. Very good value for money. Can recommend the Shoulder of Mutton for great bar food and service.

Craig B

We had a really relaxing stay at the Loft. The accommodation is a little small, but that didn't worry us at all and it is very well furnished, well equipped and in a beautiful setting - make sure you take time to have a cup of tea of the deck and say hello to the horses. The local pub (owned by the same people that own the Loft) is only a 5 minute walk away and serves some of the nicest pub food we found in the area. The cottage is in a good central location within the Peak District making it ideal for those who are looking to explore the park and do some walking. The only sort of negative was the WiFi connection which the property is advertised as having, the connection in the cottage turned to be very unreliable and incredibly slow when it did connect. This wasn't too much of an issue, as I like to be disconnected while on holiday, however it did mean that we couldn't do any online research on places that we'd seen whilst out and about.

This is a lovely studio apartment just right for 2 people. We were impressed with the décor and furnishings,very comfortable and clean. As it is above a garage, there is a metal staircase. It is sturdy and safe - we managed fine and we have creaky knees! There is a lovely view from the balcony which is equipped with a table and chairs - ideal for sipping a drink while watching the antics of the sheep,lambs and horses. Ideal base for touring The Peak District.

Mr Sheridan

This property is situated on a working farm, taking breakfast on the patio whilst watching the horses in the field was the high point of the stay and in the evening watching paragliding from the patio.

It was a superb location for a walking holiday. The Loft was in a really nice location with a balcony to sit out on in the evening overlooking fields of sheep and horses. There were walks from The Loft and a good local bus service to get you to other parts of the county. There was everything you needed in the apartment and all to a high standard, an excellent place to stay.

The Loft is a hidden gem. We went to The Peak District to complete The White to Dark Peak trail, 27 miles over 3 days. Bakewell to Liton, Liton to Hathersage, Hathersage to Hope. The Loft in Bradewell was ideally situated. It was really nice to sit on the balcony watching the lambs playing.

The Loft Bradwell Stayed here from 15th to 19th Nov 2013 I would describe this place as almost perfect, nice location 5 minutes from the local pub. A pleasant hour and a half walk to Castleton. The loft itself is cosy with everything you could possibly need, one thing that's makes a big difference is the presence of a decent sized fully working TV especially at this time of year. The owner met us at the local pub car park as the loft could be difficult to find, we followed her in, she made us very welcome told us if we needed anything to knock on her door and ask, we didn't and she didn't bother us which was nice as it makes it feel truly independent. There is a small balcony outside over looking the horse field it was lovely in November and I can only imagine how nice it would be in Summer. The bed was extremely comfortable with good quality pillows and quilt. There is a walk in shower cubicle in a very nicely tiled wet room, adjusting the shower was a little bit tricky but then I don't find many that aren't on my travels. We visited the local pub on the Friday night, The Shoulder of Mutton, it was a little bit noisy with a group of local youths but I must say I was impressed at how well mannered and friendly they all were. We didn't eat in the local but the meals I saw being served looked good. We did have a meal at the Old Hall Hotel in Hope that was very nice I had Steak and Ale Pie my wife had Salmon and Prawns no complaints. This was a very pleasant winter break I would highly recommend the loft to any couple young or old, just be aware though that if you are not too nimble on your feet it can only be accessed by a steel staircase outside. Wifi access would add greatly to this property's overall experience, the owner did tell us this is something she is looking into
