EventsDetails
Orchard House Bed and Breakfast is in a quiet part of Bakewell in the Peak District National Park. We have three double bedrooms: the luxury Four-Poster Room (en-suite), the West Room (en-suite) and the East Room (with large private bathroom). The new Four-Poster Room was completed at Easter time in 2013, and the other two bedrooms were refurbished in 2012. We offer goose-down quilts. There is plenty of private off-road parking and secure storage for bikes.
The property was built on a piece of the Duke of Rutland's land in the Victorian era. It was elegantly designed, with high ceilings and spacious reception rooms. Guests breakfast in the large drawing room, which is also a TV lounge (there are TVs in the bedrooms also).
The graveled parking area is large enough to take around seven cars, and the gates can be locked for security by arrangement.
The house is accessed by the main entrance on the ground floor (down a few steps from the parking area). Thereafter, guests are able to reach their rooms at first floor level, over a stone arch.
Orchard House is surrounded by mature fruit trees, as the name implies.

Orchard House is close to the centre of Bakewell with its cafes, shops, pubs, restaurants, banks and swimming pool. Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are within a short drive (or a long walk), and the caverns and rocky edges of the Peak District are easily accessible to the north. The start of the Monsal Trail- a disused rail track, ideal for easy walking and cycling-is only 500 metres away.

Notes
Cars are parked on a gravel surface. The first-floor bridge gives easier access from the parking area than the ground-floor entrance, but there are seven steps to negotiate. Support is given by a stone wall on either side of the steps.
Once inside, the rooms are all on one level and there is a stairlift that can be used to reach the ground floor ( for breakfast and so on)
