I really enjoyed my stay in Taddington over the last weekend! Myself and my 5 friends found the house perfectly equipped with everything needed to cook and enjoy the countryside. The area itself is very quiet but the pub at the bottom of the road served some fantastic food and was super friendly. Would definitely come here again.

Great time at this house. It’s a high standard of cleanliness and lots of amenities/cooking utensils etc. very quiet and beautiful area. This is a good venue and future visits should be mindful and respectful this is someone’s home. There are some signs of wear and tear that did not deduct from our experience.

Lovely little cottage, in very peaceful village. Easy to get to without having to go down narrow lanes. Queens Arms pub is a 5min walk down the road and does good food at very reasonable cost (closed on Mondays though!). Despite remoteness WiFi was reliable. Parking at the property is a bit tight but it is right outside the front door so good for loading/unloading. Would stay here again.
Cohen Jones stayed in August '23
Lovely house in a small village in the Peak District. Beautifully renovated and furnished. It had everything we needed for a weekend away. Great walks from the doorstep. The organisation who manages the property provided lots of information prior to our stay, including really helpful directions to the house.

House is fabulous, lovely standard and location. For a family there is no grass terrace with the oil tank, garden is lovely for adults to sit out, could be more private very much looking in on your neighbour.

Phillpotts stayed in June '23
Just back from a great 5 night stay at Church View, Taddington. As a family group of 4 adults, 26-84 years, we found the accommodation to be comfortable. There was just enough outside space for us to bbq and enjoy the sunny weather, using our camping chairs in the garden and when out and about for picnics. We visited Bakewell, enjoyed walks at Monsal Head, Milldale and over Sough Top to Chelmorton. Hope to return again!
Madakath stayed in April '23
Beautiful house and the rooms were made Cosy. Like any countryside some of the amenities are not walking distance but they are accessible within a 10min drive. Ideal for families with children.
Johnston stayed in April '23
Lovely stay - cute quirky house with a lovely log burner. Nice location to access walks and a short drive to Bakewell and Buxton. Great food at the local pub. All information provided very clearly by host. Only thing needs changing is the dining chairs in the kitchen - very unstable to sit on.
Medaney stayed in April '23
Lovely house in a beautiful location.
Mulligan stayed in March '23
We loved our stay in this beautiful cottage, we didn't want to leave! It looks exactly like the pictures. Cosy beds, plenty of space and a great shower. The kitchen is practical and well-equipped. We also met some very friendly neighbours. The location was perfect for exploring the peak district. A real home away from home.
Shan Chua stayed in March '23
We had a wonderful stay. Rooms and beds were absolutely comfortable, the surroundings were very peaceful and quiet. It was a good place from which to explore nearby towns like Buxton, Bakewell and Castleton. Would totally recommend it
Eastwell-Crathern stayed in March '23
The house has a beautiful modern interior. We particularly loved the lounge/dining space which was very comfortable to relax in with the family. House was well equipped and had everything we required. Great location in a small village which is just a ten mins drive from Buxton and Bakewell. A great guest manual was provided with lots of helpful information. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the house and would visit again.
Williams stayed in January '23
Lovely and clean house. Had problem with key box at check in but this was quickly resumed. The kitchen is very well stocked with cooking utensils, pots and pans! Great value
Warwick stayed in January '23
We are just back from a long weekend at this cottage and we loved it. The weather was snow and freezing but the house was toasty and warm downstairs with underfloor heating and a log burner. We were a group of 4 adults and it was a perfect size for us. The kitchen has everything you need ( although some kitchen roll would have been helpful). The back double bedroom is small but the bed was comfy so for a few nights it was manageable. The parking in front of the cottage was challenging in the icy roads conditions but wouldn’t be an issue most of the time. The location is great for loads of walking and it’s super close to both Bakewell and Buxton. I would definitely recommend this cottage.
anon stayed in December '22
Excellent accommodation, we loved our stay. Very good value for money
Volkwyn stayed in December '22
The apartment is outstanding, top class new finishes , has everything and more and everything works. Like awesome showers , comfy beds , extra crockery and cutlery all well organized. Comfortable sofas and two dining areas. The space is way bigger than appears in the pictures and also so cosy . The fire place also made it very atmospheric with the cold weather. Spotlessly clean ; best ever ; awesome management company -communication , exceptional cleaning & attention to detail. Very unusual! The wifi is perfect. We had a really nice memorable family Christmas holiday in The cute village and Church view. We would love to revisit

anom stayed in November '22
We loved our short stay in Taddington, from where we were able to do some walks, and visit Bakewell and Chatsworth. The cottage is well equipped and very warm. While it doesn’t have original features (it’s a new property), it does have good style and comfort.
Catchpole stayed in November '22
Absolutely brilliant place to stay. The village and surrounding area is lovely, and the property is beautifully furnished. The cottage was prefect for the 6 of us to hang out in front of the fire, cook and eat meals in the great dining room.

Clarke stayed in August '22
Our stay in Taddington was brilliant!! The cottage is comfortable and really well equipped. Kitchen stocked well with I think every utensil, and plenty of plates / mugs etc. Showers were good - hot and pressure fab. Garden was a lovely addition. Really well located just off the A6. A note though - we had two adults sharing the bunk beds... But they're not really sturdy enough... Find for children but creak when you move. Otherwise all other beds comfy with nice bedding. Communication excellent. Would recommend this place!!
Scowcroft stayed in August '22
Thank you for a wonderful stay! The house is beautiful and thoughtfully designed, and well located between Buxton and Bakewell. The kitchen is well equipped, and we appreciated having seating areas in both the kitchen and the sitting/dining room which leads out to the garden.
Agnieszka De Silva stayed in July '22
Location was excellent, all the main sites were accessible within just a short drive of the accommodation. Buxton and Bakewell were only 10 mins away. Parking was easy, though we preferred to park on the road. Garden is small but this did not affect us. The property was spotless and Peak Venues were very accommodating in allowing us to arrive slightly early due to the heat wave. They had excellent communication and overall we had a lovely stay. Tea, coffee and sugar is provided.
Nigel Scott stayed in July '22
Superbly positioned and equipped Derbyshire cottage. Taddington in Derbyshire with the sun who needs the Dordogne. Highly recommend
Chaves stayed in June '22
This cottage was so beautiful. It was clean, well stocked, comfortable and really spacious for our family of 6. There’s not too much to do in Taddington but it’s in a great location for visiting Bakewell and surrounding towns which we enjoyed every day. We loved waking up to the beautiful view of the old church across the street and it was really nice to have a parking spot off the street for our rental car too.
Marie Makepeace stayed in June '22
We had an amazing time here! Good location, clean house.
Vijay stayed in May '22
In Taddington for the weekend celebrating a birthday. 2 Church View was excellent value for money. High spec fittings and a very clean and welcoming property. Cutlery provided was of good quality and of plentiful supply and everything a visiting group could wish for was available. Coffee and tea jars filled to the brim was a small example of the detail and thoughtful ness behind the service provided. Taddington is a small village with a pub and a lovely church. The Royal Oak at Hurdlow is 15 minutes away and would recommend a visit. . Plenty of choice within half an hours drive for walks on the Peak District National Parks. Lovely scenery all round and the fields were filled with lambs and sheep. A visit to Chatsworth is a must and it did not disappoint. Overall a very pleasant and memorable visit to the Peak District.
Collins stayed in April '22
Great experience!
Alison Wyles stayed in March '22

We have just returned from a fabulous 5 nights in the Peak District. We enjoyed our stay at 1 Church View…….it is a beautiful cottage & had everything we needed. We were especially impressed with the kitchen & it’s contents. There was sufficient crockery, cutlery, pans & serving dishes to enable us to cook Xmas lunch with ease! We also loved the large dining room area where we were able to sit & enjoy ourselves each evening playing games & chatting. The cottage is very warm & beautifully furnished. Thank you also for the Xmas tree which made it look festive & inviting,

1 Church View is a beautiful place which was spotlessly clean, very snug and perfect for our stay. We didn’t venture out due to severe weather conditions but we enjoyed our stay very much.
Whittaker stayed in November '21
We had a great stay at this house! It's a great space, warm, well furnished, totally clean. The kitchen was brilliantly equipped with everything we needed. Bedrooms are nicely furnished and cosy. Small but adequate room. We spent the weekend walking and using OS maps did a great route directly from the house, over the hills to Monsal Head where we headed to the Packhorse Inn for lunch. There was no hot water when we arrived but there were detailed instructions for how it turn it on. Also no matches on the property so we borrowed a lighter off a neighbour to get the wood burner going. All in all, an excellent stay!
Young stayed in November '21
Beautiful cottage in a quiet and peaceful countryside location. Excellent base from which to explore the Peak District. Car is essential as no local amenities, however village is equidistant between Buxton and Bakewell, with a host of supermarkets, shops, pubs etc. Cottage has excellent amenities and is very well kept. Very clean and well stocked kitchen. Wood burner was well used despite underfloor heating option. WiFi and Smart TV well used and good connectivity. Beds, linen and towels all good quality. Highly recommend a stay here and would book again in the future.
Miller stayed in October '21
“We’ve just had a lovely stay at Church View. The property was well cleaned and very welcoming. It was spotless and we were delighted with it. We loved making the most of the log burner which made it feel very cosy during the cold nights. The location is perfect with walks on your doorstep and just a short drive to both Bakewell and Buxton. We would highly recommend and would happily stay again.”

Complete home from home, high standards and information. Lovely quiet location and a great base to tour lots of places from. Recommended” Our first airbnb so a high standard has been set for future. Instructions all clear and cleanliness was fabulous. Really great location and the quietness was much appreciated”
Hamlett stayed in June '21
“We spent a week in 1 Church View in June 2021 and had a wonderful time. The house itself was great – we were two couples, so the accommodation was perfect for us. We loved eating in the dining area after preparing meals in the spacious kitchen and the lounge area was well-used for evening movies and reading on the cosy sofas. We also enjoyed sitting in the garden for a glass of rose when the weather allowed! The location halfway between Buxton and Bakewell was great too and offered us the opportunity to drive to either town in 10 minutes or head out on foot to enjoy the many public footpaths leading out of Taddington into the surrounding countryside. We walked a couple of miles cross country to the brilliant Blackwell Mill Cycle Hire to rent bikes for a day exploring the Monsal Trail – highly recommended! We also made the most of the pubs in the area – Sunday lunch at the Packhorse in Little Longstone was a highlight. The Cavendish Restaurant at Chatsworth House was also impressive and incredibly reasonable for the quality of food. Finally, don't miss the Thornbridge Brewery Tap Room on the outskirts of Bakewell. The beer, pizza, lovely staff and great venue were one of the highlights of the trip. If you're new to the Peak District , 1 Church View would make a great base – and if, like us, you know the area, you'll enjoy being in the perfect location to enjoy all the actives and experiences on offer.”

“Lovely well presented property in a great location. Well equipped with everything you could need. The garden is petite but the house and location were excellent which was the main thing for us. The communication from peak venues was great, I was late asking for a travel cot and high chair however they provided it no problem. All in all a wonderful weekend away.”

“One of the best Airbnb places I have stayed at so far. Super cute house that has all the right amenities for a comfy stay. Spotless and well layed out space. Thankfully free of clutter and tastefully decorated.

I would recommend this property to anyone who wants a holiday in this area, we were very impressed. Thank you.

Our Top 5 Places to Visit Nearby
1. Cycle or walk the Monsal Trail
With the Monsal Trail so close by it would be rude not to take the opportunity to cycle/walk along this old Midland Railway line which runs from Bakewell right up to Blackwell Mill, in Chee Dale. The trail offers 8.5 miles of traffic free and mud free cycling/walking and with the recently reopened tunnels offers one of the most spectacular leisure routes in Britain for cycling, walking and horse riding. The nearest cycle hire to the property is at Blackwell Mill and you can also hire bikes at Hassop station which is great place to stop for a bite to eat or for coffee and nice piece of homemade cake! There is also a lovely little gift shop and book shop and a children’s play area. If walking it is also worth leaving the trail and dropping down in to Monsal Dale itself to enjoy walking along down by the river.
Please note that Blackwell Cycle Hire does close for the Winter Months

2. Spend a day exploring the historic market town of Bakewell
Bakewell is the largest town within the Peak District National Park and is a hub of activity. Market day is on a Monday and as well as a large range of stalls there is also an agricultural market which is definitely worth a look around as it offers a great insight into today's farming community. The town also hosts a craft and gift fair every weekend in the Brigade town hall. The Bakewell Old House Museum occupies one of the oldest buildings in Bakewell and dates back to 1543, it provides a fascinating glimpse into the towns past and is very interesting and informative with lots to appeal to all ages.Obviously no trip to Bakewell would be complete without sampling an original Bakewell pudding. The Old Original Bakewell Pudding Shop claims to have the old original recipe and still makes the puddings by hand from the secret recipe.

4. The spa town of Buxton
The spa town of Buxton can really offer something for everyone; enjoy a stroll around the pretty Pavilion gardens. The kids can enjoy the playground areas or you might choose to go for a swim at the recent refurbished swimming pool. The more adventurous may want to try out ‘Go Ape’ the treetop adventure course, for those without a head for heights a visit to Poole’s Cavern is fascinating, and it’s a great activity especially for kids when the weather does not cooperate for outdoor activities. For theatre lovers, seeing a show in the intimate Buxton Opera House is a must, and for the shopaholics the pretty Cavendish Arcade has a range of lovely little boutique shops. Lovers of real ale will enjoy visiting Buxton Tap House, which is Buxton’s own brewery pub serving its very own ales and bitters.

There really is something to do for every member of the family - The Farmyard and Adventure playground, the magnificent house and the gardens which are equally as impressive as the house, with the maze, the garden trails, and the famous water cascade to keep the little ones occupied.
