Location

Nestled in the town centre of Bakewell, in the heart of the stunning Derbyshire countryside, Bakewell Cottage Nursing Home boasts a combination of peace and tranquility, picturesque surroundings and a friendly, family atmosphere.

The Home provides care for both sexes. There are 36 rooms, (16 with en-suite), and 1 could be a double if needed. The bedrooms are larger than average, with high ceilings and many having wonderful views of the Derbyshire hills. The bedrooms, like the rest of the Home, are furnished to the highest standard and are impeccably clean.


Visiting times

Family, relatives and friends are encouraged to visit residents regularly and maintain contact by letter or telephone when visiting is not possible. In these cases, staff will offer to assist the resident to respond where help may be needed.

Visitors will be welcomed at all reasonable times, and are asked to let the Sister in charge know of their arrival and departure from the Home. For security and fire safety reasons, visitors must sign the visitor’s book on each occasion.
