Full of charm, this cottage has been lovingly converted, with a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable double bedroom and a cosy sitting room with beams and an electric woodburner-effect stove.

I enjoyed staying in the Peak District for the first time. Garden Cottage was in an ideal situation to explore the beautiful countryside nearby and with a great view from your window. The owner was very helpful with local knowledge and suggestions.

Excellent views and walks from the door. The owner was a brilliant man, very friendly and helpful. He gave us a tour of the farm, let us feed the animals and recommended so many things for us to do. Without a doubt he made our holiday.

Lovely location. We found the cottage to be very cosy and warm with a good amount of space for both of us plus the dog. Nice to have a collection of DVDs for us in the evening. Lovely area for us to take our dog. Plenty of walks surrounded us.

A great cottage to use as a base for exploring the Peak District. A well equipped and well situated accommodation. We would recommend and also rebook it ourselves.

Rated by Mrs Whitford reviewed on 5th September 2011

This cottage was an excellent base for touring and walking in Derbyshire. Many walks from the cottage itself. The owners and family where very friendly and could not do enough to make are stay enjoyable. The Wanted Pub in the village was friendly and served excellent food and plenty of it. I would not hesitate in booking this cottage again. It was warm, cosy and full of original features. The star rating given should be upgraded.

Rated by Mrs Harford reviewed on 25th April 2011

A fabulous location and the hosts couldn't have been friendlier or more helpful. The view from the top of the farm is amazing and well worth the walk. We will definitely be going back.

Rated by Miss Washington reviewed on 11th April 2011

The cottage was very cosy and clean with everything you require to enjoy a pleasant holiday. The owners were very helpfull and polite. Castleton is a very friendly village with several places to eat.Having a pet and wanting to spend time with him we found it an advantage that dogs were welcome in some pubs and coffee shops.

This cottage was in a wonderful "away from it all" location. it was very well set out, very well equiped and the owners were extremely nice people they made us all, including our golden retriever dog, feel extremely welcome. There were many and varied walks in and around the area and the cottage was a delightful retreat at the end of each day. We will certainly return.
