Just show me Hope Valley Cottages
Winding its way between the gritstone edges of the Dark Peak and the limestone crags of the White Peak, the Hope Valley links the picturesque settlements of Castleton and Hathersage and is the ideal location for a holiday full of outdoor fun.
Think walking, rock climbing, mountain biking, pony trekking and more daring adventures like pot-holing and hang-gliding. Or think of leisurely pastimes like bird-watching, painting or fishing. When you book a Hope Valley cottage you can look forward to all this and more.
Amazing attractions near your Hope Valley cottage...
Head underground to a huge honeycomb of caves, spectacularly adorned with stalagmites, stalactites and semi-precious stone. Castleton is the main centre, with Blue John Mine, Peak, Speedwell and Treak Cliff Caverns. Above ground, enjoy 360-degree views as you climb to the summit of Mam Tor or up to Peveril Castle proudly looming over the village.
Pick a Hope Valley cottage near Hathersage and trace the steps of Charlotte Brontë and Keira Knightley at North Lees Hall. Discover Little John's final resting place in the local churchyard. Or test your stamina high on the rocks of Stanage Edge. Not for the faint hearted - the area is training territory for serious rock climbers - but there are less arduous routes up and the reward at the top is a feast for the eyes!
What else? Country pubs and homemade grub. An open-air swimming pool. Fantastic visitor centres. David Mellor Design Factory. Sheffield a short drive away for museums, shops and more. And our Hope Valley cottages to rest your head after every wonderful day! If you haven't found your perfect break, there are plenty of other Peak District holiday cottages to choose from.
