The Main Bedroom
The main bedroom in this stunning cottage boasts of original features that are sure to impress you. You will be captivated by the beauty and charm that the room exudes. Among these unique features are the stunning beam and brick wall which have been preserved exceptionally well. These features were not always visible, as they were covered with plaster and woodchip wallpaper which was removed during the 2020 renovation of the cottage. This effort to repair the plaster work ended up revealing the beautiful beam and stone wall hidden beneath. The renovation ensured that these historical features were carefully exposed, accentuating the authentic character of the bedroom.
Our intention was to re-plaster the wall. We had the plaster removed – Oh what a mess this caused!
Once the plaster was removed we were so pleased and excited to discover the beautiful stonework underneath that rather than replastered we incurred a considerable cost to have the wall repaired and repointed with traditional lime mortar and then sealed.
I’m sure you’ll agree that it was well worth the trouble.
In addition in this room there is a cupboard in the wall – we are not quite sure what the original purpose of this cupboard was, but it now houses a safe for your valuables.
There is also a large cupboard over the stairs, which offers you space to hang your clothes. It is also home to an iron and ironing board plus a hand held cleaner. The cupboard will easily accommodate your shoes, clothes and suitcase.
In the corner of the room is a TV with DVD player. This TV is a smart TV, so you can watch catch up TV before drifting off to sleep.
The bed is a king sized bed with white cotton bedlinen. We have been replacing and upgrading the bedlinen and towels and will continue to do this throughout 2021. I’ve always tried to purchase high cotton count bedding to give you a feeling of luxury and try to dry the linen outside after washing (when weather permits). Nothing better than getting into a bed with clean, fresh bedding.
The window offers a view down into Bakewell over the roof tops.
