Quintessential Cottage in the Heart of Bakewell - Pass the Keys

Dating back to the 1600s, this deceptively spacious listed cottage is dog-friendly and sleeps 6. A private parking space nearby, an established front cottage garden & an enchanting courtyard to the rear. A short walk takes you into Bakewell with all it’s wonderful shops, restaurants & cafes. If you are a lover of the outdoors, there are many walks and Haddon Hall & Chatsworth are great places to visit.

We’d love to welcome you to our home!

Our property offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience – whether you’re here to explore the beautiful surroundings, enjoy a peaceful retreat, or spend quality time with loved ones.

Luxury, character, antiques, open fire & comfort - this is what our cottage can offer you!

You enter Dial Cottage via a small porchway where you can kick off your shoes, take off your coats and start to relax immediately.

The property then moves into the great-sized kitchen diner that seats 8. Perfect for those family or friends gatherings.

You can also enter the charming courtyard up the stone steps and through the Alice door to the rear of the kitchen. You can spend lovely, relaxing summer evenings sitting out in this cosy, special place, sipping your chilled glass of wine unseen.

From the kitchen, you will step down into the luxurious lounge with velvet and leather seating and be able to look at the abundance of antique furniture.

There is a quirky snug with a comfortable daybed off the lounge, which can be divided by a thick curtain. This provides a private sleeping area for one of our guests to stay. Please note that this area has a power bank for charging iPads, smartphones, etc.

From the lounge, there are a few steps up, into the clever downstairs shower/utility room with a discreet washing machine in the cupboard unit.

Moving to the upper floor via an open staircase, there is a family bathroom with egg shaped bath and 3 bedrooms.

1 x king bedroom for 3 or 4, comprising of a king bed for 2 and a day bed and pull-out bed.
1 x king bedroom for 2
1 x single bedroom for 1
1 x ground floor snug bedroom for 1 (off the living room)

All the bedrooms have been sympathetically designed to be in keeping with the rich history of Dial Cottage.

The cottage also boasts a parking space just across the road.

Guests have full access to the property and 1 x parking space. You will enter the property via a lockbox with a code.

The cottage is near a road, so you may hear some noise during busier travel times

Unfortunately we do not allow stag or hen parties - please check with us before booking large parties of guests

We do welcome well-behaved dogs. All we ask is that you bring your bed, blankets and that dogs are not allowed on the furniture or upstairs on the bed linen. We also only accept up to 2 small dogs. Should we discover any areas of concern with soiled areas or the cleanliness of the property after you have left, you may incur an additional cleaning fee.

We also need to be informed prior to your arrival of the type & amount of dogs you are bringing. This helps the housekeeping teams allocate enough time to clean before next guest arrivals.

You can unload your vehicle outside the property - parking on the single yellow line

Free private parking space:
Once unloaded, please park your vehicle near the church, which is free or in the Dial Cottage park space. Across the road, slightly downhill, there is a drive down to a barn - high wall on right hand side & a house on left-hand side with a 5 bar gate at the end

The parking space is on the right hand side before the gate and there is a sign on the wall saying - Parking for Dial Cottage

There is also a small courtyard behind the property and all we ask is that this is kept clean and tidy from any rubbish or anything left behind from your dog.

This property is managed by Pass the Keys Peak District. We look after a variety of wonderful homes across the area.
