Candlelight Cottage, Litton, Bakewell, Derbyshire, SK17 8QP

Jim & Jackie visiting from Somerset.The cottage was just as described on the website. Fresh flowers & a welcome pack of goodies was most appreciated.Having such a comfortable & well maintained cottage made our first visit to the Peak District even better.The village was delightful & the locals were very friendly.A big thumbs up for the Red Lion pub which is situated just across the village green ( no need to drive)great food & very welcoming.We will be returning to this superb cottage & recommending to all of our friends.

This beautiful, original and exceptionally well looked after cottage is a real joy to find. The village setting is perfect for a local holiday and gives you the chance to leave the car for a week. The eye for detail and comfort was really amazing and the owners have included so many extras. We personally loved the range of information on local walks (with helpful comments added from other guests), filter coffee and cooking condiments, cozy decorating, warm Aga 24 hrs a day, really comfortable bed in a romantic bedroom, wonderful deep bath and endless hot water (great for aching legs!), fresh flowers and plants provided in the cottage and not forgetting the goodies in the welcome hamper. A really thoughtful touch. We really can't recommend it enough. There are also two particularly good pubs serving real ales and good food, (one right opposite the cottage too). The locals were very friendly wherever we went, as were the owners Gill and Simon who popped in to say hello.

if you are looking for a genuine, english country cottage with many extras and a touch of luxury - book this one!

This is a delightful and well equipped cottage. It is clear that the decoration, equipment and extras are provided from a love of the property, not as a purely commercial perspective. You could live here from day one, not just stay a week. The village is charming and if you enjoy walking, there is no better base. We have been twice - once in the summer, and now in February. It was nice to come back and see the village outside of the tourist season. Quieter but just as friendly. We were worried that most places would be closed but, apart from the stately homes, all the pubs, tea houses and other delights were open serving excellent food and drink. We will be back!

Great location in the middle of Litton (very good pub across the green and a general store a few steps down the road) . Lovely comfortable cottage with absolutely everything provided (and of a very high quality). Owners very friendly and welcoming. Nice touches such as the welcome basket, filled with local goodies.
