"The house was clean, tidy and very well equipped."
The bedrooms were a good size with comfortable beds and good quality bedding. The foliage surrounding the house could do with a trim but didn’t detract from the surroundings and the birds loved it! The house was only a short walk into the town.
Could have done with an idiots guide to the heating controls as it was chilly in the evening but this didn’t spoil our enjoyment of our time in the house.

"There was no lock on the main bathroom door and the drainage in the twin room shower room was very slow."
You had to be careful not to cause a flood as the tray filled up very quickly. It did drain eventually but it limited the time you could have in the shower. There was no hair dryer available.
It was also unclear which door they wanted the rubbish left at and when we arrived, the previous occupant's rubbish was still lying at the back door and we had to move it. Parking was a problem as the space for our car often was used and during the day a large white range rover seemed to take up a space but was gone by the evening.

"Property is in great location, but the outside areas are overgrown and the property suffering a lack of care and maintenance ."
On our stay over Christmas we found a pill of bagged dog dirt outside the front door that had not been cleared, the bulbs went in the bathroom, non were provided we messaged the maintenance number with no response. The handle fell off the oven which we had to refit, we discovered the extractor fan in the kitchen was not properly fitted so doesn’t work. Aside from this there were a few minor irritations such as poor showers, no shower gel provided, kitchen not equipped as stated (e.g. no cafetière) and no bin bags in the bin or provided.

"Lovely property and close to all the amenities on offer in Bakewell."
We had a blocked toilet when we arrived, phoned and reported it and they sorted it within two hours, good service.
Cottage was perfect for our short stay, the only downside was the beds, very hard mattresses and not at all comfortable.
The rear garden is shared but only one set of outdoor furniture, would be good to clear the garden area by the steps for another set.

"Enjoyable stay, made by family time in a picturesque small town - I'd describe the acommodation as satisfactory?"
You got the sense of a property run by a management company?
Feedback from our stay?:
1]Disappointingly small compared to wide angle photos
2]STILL not addressed accurate location info. - We had to ask - The What3words location is somewhere in Oxfordshire?
3]STILL no lock on the family bathroom
4]Happy to clean up, but need adequate tools. You need to provide some green scourers as well as cloths?

"The directions to find the cottage and signage could be more helpful, there are no signs for 'Croft Cottages' and next door is no."
1 Coombs Rd. Also tablemats would be useful. Otherwise this is a lovely cottage in a great location for visiting Bakewell. We visited at the end of November and there were lots of Xmas activities on in the town. A convenient bus ride took us right into Chatsworth House too, which is lovely. We would love to come back again thankyou.

"We had a very enjoyable stay, and would return if going back to Bakewell."
Overall the property was comfortable and well appointed. The only issue was the drainage to the shower in the twin room en-suite, which was extremely slow.

"Beautiful cottage."
Very clean. Well kept. Location brilliant. Thoughtful to provide tea, sugar, dishwasher tabs, and kitchen well appointed. Could do with instructions for microwave. Garden sitting areas could be wonderful if cleaned, swept and maintained, however were unkempt and scruffy. Beds much too hard for all six of us unfortunately which spoilt the holiday. Sofas whilst look lovely, are ok, but seats are sagging a bit, as are dining chairs. Stairs steep and narrow for elderly, which needs pointing out before booking. Table mats and coasters would be good, as table is marked.
This isn't a negative review at all, just useful advice. If the bed mattresses were changed, we would definitely stay again, as we loved the cottage. Thank you

"Signage outside the cottage is nonexistent so it is difficult to find."
The shower in the main bathroom is faulty making a noise so loud it must have been heard by the other cottages and the shower head actually fell onto one of our partie’s head. Whilst the cottage itself was very clean the glasses had to be washed before use. No welcome pack was a disappointment and unusual today.
