Featured in Condé Nast Traveller as one of the top 15 places to stay in the Peak District, The Eaves is a characterful 2-bedroom duplex right in the centre of Bakewell - with the rare bonus of free, secure parking on site.
Blending antique and contemporary style with imaginative art, it’s a relaxing home-from-home just five minutes’ walk from the shops, pubs and eateries. Cook in the well-equipped kitchen, unwind in the spacious living room, and settle in for a peaceful night’s sleep.
The space
A stylish duplex apartment set in the eaves of a Grade II listed building, right in the middle of Bakewell - everything is roughly a five-minute walk away.
Living & kitchen
A spacious living room that blends antique and modern furniture with original art for a fresh, engaging feel. From the window seat at the back, you can look out over the old rooftops to the parish church, founded not long after the Norman Conquest. The kitchen is well equipped with appliances, utensils and crockery for everything from a quick breakfast to a proper dinner. A smart TV with an Amazon Fire TV Stick covers your catch-up and streaming.
Sleeping
Two double bedrooms sleep up to 4. The upper bedroom, tucked into the eaves, has blackout blinds for a restful night.
Work-friendly Upgraded high-speed Wi-Fi and a dedicated workspace make it easy to fit in a few hours of work between adventures.
This is a characterful eaves duplex, so there are stairs and some cosy low ceilings. Access is via a communal hallway and staircase (two short flights of 15 steps), then a further 12 steps inside up to the upper floor and beds. The upper bedroom and bathroom have low ceilings in keeping with the period building. It suits guests who are comfortable on stairs; do get in touch if you’d like more details before booking.
