Description

The Old Smithy (Monyash about 2 miles) – this is one of our favourites! A cosy converted old building which serves a good selection of freshly-prepared food. Mostly along the line of hot and cold sandwiches and paninis, jacket potatoes and all day breakfasts all with fresh local ingredients. Eat in or outside (when it’s warm enough). Perfect for late breakfast or brunch at the weekend or for a cup of tea and a piece of cake in the afternoon. Also sell ice creams.

Monsal Head Café (Monsal Dale – 3 miles) – just in front of the Monsal pub, with an even better view across Monsal Dale. Fantastic home-made cakes, muffins and parkin (like a slightly chewy ginger cake). Also shop with local pictures, crafts and postcards.

Ricci’s (Bakewell – 3 miles) – a small Italian café/takeaway offering snacks, pizza and pasta. Ideal for a family meal, although please note that they shut promptly at 8pm in the evening (we’ve been caught out before now!).

The Olde Bakewell Pudding Shoppe (Bakewell – 3 miles) – right on the main street and claiming to be the source of the first ever Bakewell pudding, this is nevertheless worth a visit. It does get very busy (particularly in peak holiday times) but still manages to offer a good selection of traditional café food catering to most tastes. From toasted teacakes and tea to beans on toast, sandwiches salads and main dishes all at reasonable prices. The café is upstairs, downstairs is a bakery and deli selling Bakewell puddings (of course and they can be mailed as presents!), also Derbyshire oatcakes (like large, flat crumpets), fresh bread and local specialities.

Bakewell also has a plethora of other cafés, teashops and snack bars.

Guestbook
We have taken some comments from our Guest Book "Fantastic location with stunning views and excellent standard of accomodation with everything you could need. We all enjoyed the swimming pool and games room and our dog would like a field like that to play football in at home -so sad to leave!" - Ms B Aug 10 "Once again improvements since our last visit - nice new bathroom. We always find holidays here relaxing and invigorating" - Mr B Jul 10 "Had a beautiful time - only problem was having to go home" - Mrs S Oct 09 "We had a lovely weekend and absolutely loved your cottages. We would definitely recommend you to others and stay here again ourselves" - Miss R Sept 09 "The properties (we took two) were spotlessly clean and even early arrivals were made to feel welcome...Clearly these owners care about their property and, more importantly, about their visitors. I certainly hope we will be able to arrange a return visit." - Mr B Apr 09 "Everything is very comfortable and well thought out for families - good attention to detail! Garden and plants are lovely, very well-maintained giving the place a very nice feel. Good luck!" - Ms B - Aug 08 "Nice relaxing break, good accommodation, attention to detail, friendly hosts, very enjoyable" - Mr S - Aug 08 "Great time had by all - we hope to repeat the experience in the not too distant future." - Mr S - Aug 08 "An amazing stay for our whole family. Haddon Grove was so well equipped and beautifully styled with everything thought of. We had 9 adults and 10 children in our party (aged 1-16) and all were entertained and happy for the whole week, despite the weather! Louise and James give an extremely warm welcome, we cant wait to come back on our next trip to Bakewell. Thank you so much!" - Mrs H - Jun 08 "When we come back to the Peak District, we won't stay anywhere else!" - Family B - Apr 08 "Our cottage was lovely, everything was clean, and James & Louise were so friendly and helpful!! The pool was lovely, and we hope to be back to stay again soon! Excellent accomodation & great value for money! - Reeves Family - Swadlincote August 2007
