2 Victoria Cottages - Cosy Grade II Listed Cottage

2 Victoria Cottages is a cosy Grade ll listed former mill workers cottage. Set on the main road 200 yds from the centre of Bakewell, it is in a great location, just a short stroll from the town’s pubs, restaurants and shops.

Located in the heart of the White Peak, this beautifully presented rural retreat provides a comfortable base, whether you’re looking to enjoy some fresh air and long country walks, conquer the highest peaks or simply to relax and unwind in a friendly village pub.

The cottage is arranged in a traditional two-up, two-down style and benefits from both a private courtyard garden adjacent to the kitchen and additional terraced seating area, with wonderful views overlooking the rooftops of Bakewell.

The living area contains a comfortable sofa, dining area and smart TV. With a decorative fireplace and oak beams providing a cosy cottage feel, it is a relaxing space to retreat to, after a day out exploring the nearby walking and cycling trails.

The country style kitchen includes everything you need for your stay, with a cooker/hob, fridge freezer, washing machine and good quality cutlery and kitchenware, as well as a variety of extras such as tea, coffee etc.

The bedroom has a large king size bed, adorned with soft cosy duvet and white, quality, cotton bedlinen. The bedroom enjoys plenty of storage space and white towels are provided for use during your stay.

The bathroom contains a good quality, white bathroom suite with walk in electric power shower.

In addition to its central location in the historical market town of Bakewell, 2 Victoria Cottages also benefits from its own off-road parking space.

The parking and terraced seating area are accessed via approximately 30 steps, arranged over three flights of stairs. The steps are a mixture of traditional stone and concrete and are uneven in places, although they are accompanied by a sturdy handrail.

If you suffer from any mobility issues then please be aware that access to these areas may be limited.

It is possible to pull up directly outside 2 Victoria Cottages for a short period of time (single yellow line), in order to unload your bags/luggage. You can also use the front door day to day, if you are heading into Bakewell and do not need use of your car.

I have included photographs of the steps and access for your reference and if you have any questions about any of the above, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me.

Great place but be aware that there are 30 steps to parking spot . Parking spot also needs negotiating and could be improved by levelling to the road. Also be aware of the little top step into the bedroom.Excellent kitchen - everything you need.A nice lounge area.Very convenient to the town.Recommended to able bodied guests.

The property was well modernised and clean with all amenities for a stay in Bakewell. The things I was not happy with was the noise of the traffic on the main road outside which was not mentioned, the stone steps to the rear of the property where steep and uneven and to park your car in the allotted space was in danger of damaging your vehicle.

Great location and base for the walks and visits we wanted to do, parked the car and then walked or buses from Bakewell.Yes the parking is a bit awkward but managed OK even with an SUV. Steps down are steep but manageable with care and worth it for the top seating area views.Jenna the host provides loads of information, guide books, walks and OS maps so all very good and saves having to buy! Property very well equipped and thoroughly recommended this property.

Cosy cottage

Lovely little cottage in bakewell. Check in was easy with jennas instructions and there was even milk in the fridge and a cake to welcome me. Only slight issue is the noise from the A6 that the cottage sits on. Also if you're tall like me the stairs can be slightly hazardous!

Excellent standard of property

Everything was as expected with a very clean and well resourced property. Well stocked kitchen and updated bathroom. Bedding of high quality and comfortable mattress. Stairs, both inside and outside are steep but clearly in the description. Close to town. Excellent value for money.

It was as good as it could be. Clean, tidy and a nice cottage. We just found the road noise really bad and we had an accident in our car trying to park in the driveway as it wasn't an easy parking space. The steps down from the driveway was much steeper than I envisaged. Appreciate this is something the owner can't do much about. Being an older couple we should have found something a bit quieter and on the flat.

Ideal for self catering & good location

We particularly liked the well equipped kitchen which included a full size fridge. Every kitchen tool and appliance we needed was provided plus tea, coffee, sugar & a few spices. The apartment was comfortable and less than a 10 min walk along the canal into the town centre. We enjoyed the flowers and table on the terrace. The only negative was a little traffic noise during the day but not at night or early in the morning.

Visiting the Peak District

We enjoyed our stay in Victoria Cottage, a compact, yet perfectly formed Grade 2 listed cottage. The bathroom is modern and spacious, the couch and bed both comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need to cook real food from the local farmers markets and farm shops! Jenna responded to questions quickly, directions for car parking we’re clear. As stated by other reviewers, the parking could be tricky, however we found that if we drove past and turned at the end of the lane and approached from that direction, it was easy in a Kia Ceed. We used both the upper and lower courtyards, a lovely decision to make!

Lo 5 minute walk into town to good selection of shops, grocery, restaurants/pubs/cafes/bakeries, The property itself is on a busy main road and has some traffic noise. Things to consider. There are steep narrow steps to navigate down from the parking space to the entry door to the property. Once inside the stairs to the first floor (bedroom annd bath up are steep and narrow also.

A lovely cosy cottage within easy walking distance to Bakewell. The private parking was a boon and we were able to enjoy the beauty of the Peak District on our daily excursions. Bakewell is well kitted for food and beverage. The cottage was marvellous and the thoughtful milk in the fridge on arrival was a nice touch. We both loved staying there.

A lovely cottage

We stayed for three nights at 2 Victoria Cottage and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. The cottage is comfortable, clean and well equipped with everything we needed and is in a perfect position for exploring Bakewell, the centre of which is only a short walk away and has plenty of pubs and places to eat. There are also lots of local walks from both short circular ones to longer ones without the need to use a car. One thing to point out is that the cottage is on a busy main road resulting in a lot of traffic noise at busy times of the day. We would however use the cottage again on a visit to Bakewell.

Stayed here for three nights in March, the parking was a little tight for larger vehicles, the property was immaculately clean and beautiful inside, perfect for exploring the town and surrounding areas. Overall good value for money and could well return. Thanks to our host. Ian from Norfolk
