Cavendish Penthouse Suite

Enjoyable. Friendly and helpful staff. Positive: Breakfast prompt and tasty. Negative: No thoughts on improvements.

Bakewell - Bagshaw Hall stay Positive: Good location and near centre of Bakewell and ideally located for the rest of the Peak District and its wonderful scenery. We were located at the top of Bagshaw Hall so views were very good.withbour own balcony. Good sized apartment/suite so adequate space and lots facilities. We stayed in room 2. Photos from the balcony area over Bakewell. Negative: The bathroom shower/bath taps needed maintenance and were not working properly. Being an old property lots of creaking floorboards, which must have echoed through to the other residents particulary at night. Beware of trip hazard on way to the bathroom particularly at night, namely a large oak beam set in the floor! N.B: If you have difficulty walking it is quite steep in the surrounding areas.

Positive: Room facilities. Hall position telative to the town. Negative: The flagplole outside the window rattled all night. It needs tightening up!

Disappointed! Overpriced - old springy bed - room change not equivalent to the one booked. Positive: the location for Bakewell is excellent, short walk down hill and you are in the centre. It is steep coming back up if you struggle with walking. Negative: We did not get the room we booked due to flooding. Nobody contacted us to let us know, we would not have gone had we known this. We booked the apartment with balcony but were given a room with no kitchen or lounge area in replacement. The bed was really uncomfortable, very bouncy and springs that went ping every time you moved. This spoilt our weekend as I got very little sleep and suffered with back ache in the morning. We cut the weekend short on Sunday, going straight home in the morning as too tired to go out on the Sunday. The room smelt very musty and dirty (it looked clean), I appreciate it is an old building but have stayed in plenty of old buildings and not experienced such a bad smell. We had taken food to cook for breakfast but couldn't as there was no kitchen, the lady did cook it for us and brought to the room, however, sadly it was cold by the time it arrived. No discount was offered, we only paid such a high price to have the balcony, kitchen, and lounge area with comfy seating for the Saturday evening, (we had stayed in that room before), we would not return.

Very satisfied Positive: Rooms , location , cleanliness staff all amazing Negative: The flag outside our door was keeping us awake in night with the wind
