This lovely studio cottage is fully open plan providing a great place to spend quality time together. Rustle up hearty breakfasts, prepare picnics, and cook delicious dinners in the practical kitchen. Eat around the breakfast bar before popping your feet and paws up in front of the TV. Get some well-deserved sleep in the comfortable king-size bed which is positioned perfectly opposite the window offering far-reaching countryside views, so you can enjoy a morning coffee cosied up while watching the world go by. A handy en-suite shower room completes the apartment. Outside you will find a little patio area with seating and wonderful views over the rolling hills.

I had a wonderful stay at the Gardener's Rest. The cottage is set in a beautiful, peaceful location, with lovely views across the valley right from the bed. It was incredibly quiet and relaxing, yet had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is very well equipped and had far more than the usual essentials. Communication with theRead more host was easy, friendly, and welcoming from start to finish. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and would happily return if I'm ever back in the area. Highly recommended! Hide

Recently had a long weekend at Gardeners Rest. It's in a brilliant location, close enough to amenities but far enough that you're surrounded by peace and quiet. The accommodation is lovely and clean with everything you need. Perfect if (like us) have a dog and want to explore the Monsal trail and have a bite to eat in Bakewell. 5*!!

Gardeners Rest is a stunning little place that is tucked away in a perfect piece of Derbyshire. It is very comfortable, has everything you need, and an amazing shower. The location is perfect, pure countryside with Buxton only a few minutes drive away, then Bakewell and Castleton etc about 20 mins drive. I had such a peaceful holiday retreat despitRead moree the rain. The sun did shine over the hills and I could relax outside with a cuppa. Thankyou. Hide

Found the cottage a little difficult to find when we arrived but it was clean well presented, they accept two dogs I would not recommend large breed dogs as there is not much room for two large dogs. Location is quiet which was lovely and the views were great.

Gardeners Rest was perfect for us as a couple for 3 nights. The accommodation was small but had all we needed and was spotlessly clean with far reaching views.

Lovely quiet situation with great open views. Well equipped and comfy bed. Great area for walking. -ve. Guests have no control over heating. Sitting -out area is squashed between wheelie-bins, high wall and car, so no view. Really tiny bathroom sink.
