The barn was warm, cosy and tastefully appointed. Tucked away just off the high street in this lovely little village with a choice of pubs on our doorstep plus a bakery and convenience store. We ate at the Farmyard Inn one evening and can highly recommend the liver and bacon and home made beef burgers. With lovely walks on the doorstep and in a perfect location for all the other main attractions I can highly recommend this little gem. The welcome pack, including a bottle of wine was a lovely touch!
We are delighted to read that you enjoyed your stay at The Barn @ The Old Bakery.
We are pleased to read that you found the convenience of the pubs, store and bakery within strolling distance of the property.
We are fortunate to have three good pubs in the village all serving good quality home cooked food.
Equally we are pleased that you enjoyed walking from the door in to the White Peak countryside of the Peak District National Park.
We hope that you will consider returning in the future.

We stayed for a week and just did not want to leave at the end of it! It really is a unique cottage and you can see a lot of thought has gone into it.
Ken and Carol are the most wonderful of hosts - generous, knowledgeable and helpful.
We hope we can return some day to this little gem of a cottage!

We were pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay and found The Barn @ The Old Bakery to your liking. We were pleased to read in our guest book, that despite not having a car, you managed to make use of the hourly bus service from the village to explore the wider area of the White Peaks. You also managed to experience the beauty of 'walking from the door' that our property offers.
We hope to see you again

We stayed in The Barn @ The Old Bakery on the weekend of the great winds! The Barn had everything we needed and is a really unusual building. Lovely and warm to come back to after a day out walking, welcoming after a day out in the rain sight seeing. The kitchen/ living room was well laid out with everything we needed to make a meal and settle down and relax on wet windy nights. The bed was the most comfortable that I have ever slept in and the décor of the bedroom very relaxing, most of all from my side of the bed I fell asleep watching the stars through the Velux window. With very little light pollution in Youlgreave the stars were awesome. The bathroom was small yet perfectly formed and had shower AND bath. All the rooms were very light and airy and everything spotlessly clean. The heating was set just at the correct level, thank you Kean and Carol because so many winter lets are not really warm enough. I brought my hot water bottle just in case but am pleased to report it was not needed. The welcome pack including a bottle of wine was a really nice touch. You are star hosts who deserve a large bouquet and I know when we return to do more walking you will be our first choice.

We are pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay at The Barn @ The Old Bakery. We have tried to ensure that our guests are warm and cosy, especially during the winter months when the weather can be sometimes challenging. We wouldn't want our guests having to bring water bottles!
We are pleased to read that you found The Barn @ The Old Bakery an excellent base to use to visit the wonders of the Peak District National Park. Walking from the door offers some great views, equally a short drive away as you found are the Roaches, with their breath taking views.
We were pleased to read that you enjoyed viewing the stars at night. When we first arrived in Youlgrave, this was one of the first amazing views we noticed. To walk back from on of the three local pubs and gaze upwards to view the Milky Way is a breathtaking experience.
We hope that you will return to The Barn @ The Old Bakery, to continue your exploration of the White and Dark Peaks.
1 review We stayed in this cottage for three nights and used it as base for exploring the Peak District. The cottage is spacious, clean and really cosy, with everything you need for a self-catered stay. The owners, Ken and Carol, really can't do enough to make you feel welcome and looked-after. The village itself is about 10 minutes in the car from Bakewell and Chatworth House, and about 20 minutes from Matlock Bath, so the location is perfect. There are plenty of walks that you can do from the accommodation itself, too, if you don't fancy taking the car out. We will definitely be coming back!
We were pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay and that our property met with your high expectations.
The Barn @ The Old Bakery, we hope is equipped with all that you need for a self catering cottage.
Walking from the door is perfectly located to explore the beautiful Peak District National Park and all that it has to offer.
We hope that you will return, to continue your exploration of the area.
1 review We have had an excellent few days at The Barn @ The Old Bakery. A very cosy, clean and well equipped accomodation with provisions left by the owners including a bottle of wine which was very thoughtful. Lovely walks from the door and 3 pubs on the doorstep, we tried two of them and the food was excellent. Definitely recommend this property. A**

We are pleased to read that you enjoyed your stay in The Barn @ The Old Bakery. The three pubs all offering great home cooked food are a real bonus, and all within 100yards of our property. As you have realised the accommodation offers great walking 'from the door' into the beautiful Peak District National Park. WE hope that you return to continue your exploration of the area.
