“Cornbrook house was placed perfectly for us to be near Bakewell and we have always loved the village of Ashford-in-the-Water.”

The house itself is just lovely inside, with every amenity we could imagine. I would love to have the kitchen in my own home! The house was immaculate and very comfortable.

“It was lovely to arrive at a cottage that was warm and welcoming, and the tea and biscuits made us feel even more welcome!”

An ideal spot for visiting the Peaks, located within easy reach of so many things to see and do. We were only there for a weekend, but had a great relaxing break, including trout spotting in the river! The kitchen was splendid, living room comfortable and we'd all like to come back when it's cold enough for the log burner. Perhaps think about replacing the key box at some point, we had trouble accessing the key when we arrived.

“Lovely cottage, very nicely decorated and furnished and with more home comforts than most holiday rentals.”

Kitchen especially lovely, and very well equipped with quality items. There were even sharp knives! Toy box in the living room was a great hit with our toddler and visiting small people. Beds comfortable and linen/towels good quality. House warm despite some very cold weather and it was lovely to arrive and find the path had been cleared of snow. Bathroom a bit idiosyncratic, it could really do with some decent ventilation - I appreciate an extractor fan is not in keeping with the period feel of the house but having to lever open the bathroom window in the freezing cold after a shower did feel a bit antiquated!

“The house was warm, clean, comfortable and within walking distance of two pubs and a shop.”

It was very comfortable and having the bonus of a wood burning stove was a nice touch. Loved the well equipped kitchen and bathroom and the bedrooms were spacious and comfy. I thought there would be road noise but I couldn't hear a thing as the road was not busy. A few mins drive from; Bakewell, Chatsworth, stunning scenery and the Monsal trail. Ashford village is lovely and a pleasant walk. The living room is too small to seat 6 adults comfortably but a party of 4/5 adults plus a couple of small children would be fine. There were plenty of books and toys, sky tv, radio and an ipod player, The only thing I think they really need is an outside light as it is a totally unlit pot holed parking area. It's very dark and as there's a step I bought a torch for safety.

“Shame about the parking”

This is a lovely cottage, good quality equipment, great heating and amenities. It is in an great location close to pubs, shop and tea shop. The only problem is there is no allocated parking, the only parking is about eight spaces to serve 12 properties on a first come basis. When we first arrived there was no available parking,If you and your travelling companions can cope with this i would throughly recommend this cottage.

“Lovely shabby chic house just outside picturesque village”

Lovely house rather than cottage with high ceilings. Nice interior. Great kitchen/diner with quality cooking pots and pans and utensils rather than the cheap items you usually find in holiday lets. Smaller than expected but made up by high ceiling and two good size bedrooms. third bedroom was v small with a big bunkbed. shame there was only one bathroom with toilet so occasionally there was a queue for the bathroom. parking shared with other residents.

“enjoyable stay”

A very pleasant period house in excellent condition and with high standard of cleanliness and of furniture and fitments. The kitchen was a delight, with everything you needed available. Two good sized bedrooms with a smaller third with very comfortable beds and bedding. A large bathroom well fitted with seoarate shower was very welcome. A chest full of toys was of delight for the children. On the oustskirts of the village of ashford which had a store and pubs and vey near Bakewell with many more amenities.It was easy to go on various walks from the house itself.It was very easy to visit other well known places. Although the house was part of a terrace it was very quiet and we heard no noise at all.While there was small garden in front we would have liked a back garden or yard as it rained a lot and we found it difficult to dry clothes

About the location

ASHFORD-IN-THE-WATER

Bakewell 2 miles.

The picture-postcard village of Ashford-in-the-Water nestles on the banks of the River Wye, just two miles from Bakewell, at the heart of the Peak District National Park. This historic village, once famous for its marble, consists of 18th century stone cottages, two lovely pubs, an exquisite restaurant and a superb village store, renowned for its quality produce. The medieval Sheepwash Bridge, overhung by whispering willow trees, was once a major crossing point over the Wye for packhorses delivering malt from Derby and is flanked by a former sheep washing pen. Ashford Cricket Ground is a perfect spot to spend an afternoon supporting the local team, whilst Ashford 'Orchard' provides an ideal children's play area. The nearby, renowned market town of Bakewell offers a variety of shops, restaurants and pubs, together with frequent local farmers' markets. Visit the many stately homes, including Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall, or explore the rugged Dark Peak and softer limestone White Peak, all within easy reach. With Britain's premier theme park, Alton Towers and the impressive caverns at Castleton close by, you'll be spoilt for choice at this fantastic location.
