Property is in an excellent location for Bakewell. Comfy beds and soft towels. Would benefit from a good clean as build up of dust in places, but main areas clean.

We had a wonderful family birthday celebration at Wyedale. We all had our own space and loved our meals around the large wooden table. The accommodation was so clean and the communication with our host Geraldine was excellent. The pool table was also a big hit. Bakewell is a lovely place with lots of individual shops and plenty of cafes and pubs. If we had any further family gatherings we would not hesitate to book Wyedale,
