Description

Bakewell 3.7 miles.

Tucked away at the heart of the Peak District National Park in Over Haddon near Bakewell, is this quirky three-bedroom cottage, Cuckoo.

Brimming with characterful features such as original beams and benefitting from on-site facilities, private parking and pet-friendly living, Cuckoo welcomes up to five guests to bask in a peaceful retreat to Derbyshire.

After a long day of exploring your surroundings, kick back and relax in the open-plan living space in front of a roaring woodburning stove as the allocated chef rustles up a tasty feast for the whole family.

Settle down at the dining table ready to tuck in as the wine is poured, or alternatively make use of a quaint outdoor setting with private tables and chairs set within a communal courtyard to savour an alfresco affair.

When the stars appear, retreat to a spacious bathroom to indulge a long soak in the tub or freshen up with a revitalising shower before completing your all-important skincare routine and retiring to either a charming super-king-size, double or twin bedroom.

Escape to Derbyshire with a tranquil stay at Cuckoo.

Lovely little cottage.

We have just stayed at Cuckoo. However it accommodates 5 people in 3 bedrooms, the single bedroom is very small and after arrival found the window is not am opening one, it was boiling in there and my daughter had very uncomfortable stay as all nights were far too hot to sleep well, and felt clausrophobic. Thr bathroom was mc but again, for 5 people think another separate toilet/shower in cottage is needed. cottage is only two rooms downstairs with a very small kitchen so felt very crowded when all in. Cleanliness was mainly good but We noticed cobwebs in lounge on lamp shades, smd the bathroom window had a bad mouldy ledge. Also no outside light at front of cottage but there are two steps which made it somewhat dangerous at night when leaving or entering amd noticed a previous review said same. Pool is nice to have, but again noticed loads of dead flies in all the pool window sills which was off putting, games room above is boiling hot, but a nice add on, byr again closed at 8pm which isn't limg enough for a family to enjoy after a day out, think 10 pm would be better. There are 10 cottages all next to each other other joined, lovely area in country but can't help but feel amenities aren't quite enough there. No response to request for late check oit smd was very late arriving due to the wrong postcode being given on directions from booking, sending us miles out to a farm camping site, who were sick of the same issues from the bookings arriving from here. Also have to strip sll the beds on departures which found strange, we get the put your rubbish out and clean the cottage request but having to vacate at 10am doesn't allow for any lay in or enjoyment on last day, in addition to a 4pm check in is really not enough time to enjoy the break, and the the price charged especially not. But had a lovely stay and break other than these issues

A lovely, cosy and quiet cottage!

Has everything you could need for your stay. Thoughtful welcome gifts left by the hosts and the beds were very comfortable! One thing that the cottage would benefit from though is an external light by the front door/approach. My aging, partially sighted father really struggled to navigate the approach and the steps around the front door. Other than that minor observation 10/10, will definitely return in future.
