Jean gave us a very warm welcoming asking about our day and giving us directions for the 6 minute walk into Bakewell. The room we stayed in was upstairs and overlooked the front garden and river which gave us a wonderful, peaceful view. The room was very traditional and everything was catered for, tea and coffee facilities, and toiletries. Breakfast... More

This has to be in the best location in Bakewell. It's just across the road from the river, and you can walk to town easily. Jean offers the most delicious brekkers and has loads of suggestions for touring. Our room was small but well fitted out, with a surprizing amount of storage. No view, but very private location on the... More

This B&B is in a fantastic location, just minutes walk from the village centre and situated right by the river, very picturesque. Jean was very welcoming without being overbearing and the breakfast was delicious and had a wide menu selection to choose from. The double en-suite from was great - overlooking the river. The room was everything you'd expect from... More

Had a fantastic stay in the double en-suite room. Really comfy bed, good shower and all you could ever need in the room, including a good selection of quality hot drinks, not the usual 2 cheap teabags! Was very clean and Jean the owner is so friendly and welcoming with great service and a yummy breakfast to start the day.... More

Jean deservedly gets many return visits to her B & B situated in a lovely and convenient position close to Bakewell town centre - I am one of them. One has to accept that this is not a 5* hotel but just a working family's cottage with the size of rooms which that would indicate. Yes, the bed I was... More

A group of five friends (2 couples and one single) stayed for one night to visit the Hartington Cookery School in Bakewell . Our choice of accommodation was limited as we wanted three rooms near the centre of town. As people who use B&B accommodation a great deal, we know what we like. The location is great opposite the river... More

Went back for another weekend in Bakewell at the start of October and wasn't disappointed. The room was as good as ever and Jean is still the perfect host, friendly, helpful and always supplies a superb breakfast to start the day. Looking forward to going back again as soon as we can.

Just a short walk to Bakewell town centre and just a short drive to many other beautiful places worth visiting. We stayed in the downstairs room. Very clean with a lovely hot shower.
