The cottage is in an excellent location in the heart of Castleton. It has a lovely courtyard garden with a beautiful stream running through. The cottage is well kept and has everything you need. We were two couples here for a short cycling holiday and this was perfect.
This wasn’t a real issue for us, but just to be aware, as it is an old cottage, the doorways downstairs are quite low. So if you’re tall, there will be a lot of ducking down.

Nice quirky cottage
Not a large double bed as advertised. I wouldn’t have booked had I known it was a standard double as too narrow and too short.
Cottage let down by housekeeping, cleaning just not up to standard. Messaged property during stay but they didn’t respond.

Nice location , near really lovely places to eat.
Good job partner wasn’t with us as were are 5ft 6 & door came up to our shoulders! (He’s 6ft 9 would not have been able to negotiate tiny door frames!) no forewarning extremely low door way height although foam buffers on mid frame and we managed to dodge & remember to duck all week! Otherwise characterful & quirky little place comfortable & home from home provided.
Main double mattress a bit on the hard /extra firm side , & a single bed left side slats we worked out on bed kept slipping so mattress fell thorough nightly , but luckily a second alternative single bed in same room. Slugs were constantly getting in kitchen & trails up living room sofa /carpets etc so kept vacuuming& mopping up daily!( caught culprit last day!) workmen on next door upset neighbours & the parking map kindly provided went off pist with a nearby cranky neighbour blocking us in, not our fault as workmen & cottage next door used outside parking after first day all week like a workshop space, Polite but inconvenient trying to enter/exit our holiday cottage & some noise if we’d not been leaving & just arriving to that would be upsetting !

Beautifully refurbished and very well equipped. The rear terrance with the stream running through it was particularly delightful.
Everything was great, except the master bed was quite small, but a minor issue.

Clean ,tidy, well decorated, location, courtyard garden with stream, kitchen, Wi-Fi
Parking - options for 3 spaces and a parking pass were advised online, in correspondence and in the cottage manual, but reality is spaces are shared with other holiday let’s and weren’t available and parking pass was removed a year ago. So parked on the street up the road.

Lovely property, excellent location. Didn’t use the cooking facilities due to not being very clean but wasn’t planning to anyway so didn’t really matter. Would have been disappointed if I was planning to use them. Apart from that lovely little cottage and would stay there again.

A small cottage full of character in a great location for the plentiful local pubs and walks from the door.
Many basics were not provided, so best to add these items to your packing: toilet paper (bring your own, especially if you’re arriving after the shops are closed), hand soap, dishwasher tablets, kitchen scissors and tea towels.
Bring some slippers as the underfloor heating in the bathroom is not on first thing in the morning.
Some crockery isn’t the freshest, so give it a clean before use (the cupboard could do with a deep clean).

Centrally located, clean and comfortable, great shower.
Parking and access was always tricky in the day if you took your car out would have to park in the car park pay and display on return, building work going on next door so let’s of scaffolding and vans around the entrance.

Central location. A clean comfortable accomadation . Beds were so comfy. Lovely terraced garden which was a pleasure to sit out in. Underfloor heating which was an added bonus .The owner kept in touch by text to ensure we were happy with everything which was a very nice gesture. We could not fault the property and will certainly rebook in the future.
Nothing it was perfect for us.

About a 2 minute walk to pubs and food. The little courtyard at the back was amazing.
Door heights were very low - notwithstanding warnings banged head several times. Mouldy bread left in bread bin. Toilet had not been flushed. Felt the price was high for the facilities offered. The twin bedded room was really small.

I cannot say enough good things.. it had everything we needed for a weekend away in the Peak District. It was so homely, cosy, so nicely decorated and the beds were beyond comfy! The back yard is a sanctuary. A slice of heaven with the stream and fairy lights. This place will truly hold a special places in our hearts. It has been a home from home. The info booklet is filled with fantastic info about the property and history, something we truly loved!
The fact I couldn’t live in it permanently.

The owner had prewarned us the scaffolding was still up and offered us a £25 discount which we accepted. This has not yet been refunded despite ringing Sykes. Please refund this immediately. Also a carbon monoxide detector was in the bedroom as the boiler was there. Not a problem but it had a very bright flashing monitor which was very annoying overnight.

Location is perfect. Cottage in ideal location to explore and enjoy Castleton and Peak District
Hats off to the owner to try sort out any shortcomings and rapid response but I would definitely change the cleaning company as the cottage didn’t look prepared for guests. Especially kitchen didn’t look properly cleaned. Lock box looked a bit worn as it took some time to open it. This could be an easy fix for perfect cottage.

Cosy and characterful cottage in the heart of Castleton. Great location for village and numerous walks. Loved the backyard so much that want to come back in Summer to enjoy it more.
Wooden floors upstairs were slippery so bring slippers - also stairs not suitable for people with restricted mobility.

Beautiful cottage set in the perfect position in Castleton. Beautifully decorated for Christmas, with gifts and cards for us on arrival. We couldn't have asked for anything more ❤️

Perfectly positioned, cottage itself was clean and well kept. Good parking.
Maybe another radiator in lounge as it was a bit chilly on an evening,our fault maybe as it has a wood burner but we were not confident enough to light.

Convenient pretty cottage with parking. Well equipped.
Disappointed that things that were meant to be supplied were missing like the fuel for the wood burning stove , dishwasher tabs and recycling bin liner.

The accomodation was spotless! It really is such a beautiful little cottage and nestled right in the middle of loads of different activities that you can undertake. The interior of the house is so pretty as well, me and my partner found it so amazing and so cosy to just spend time away from it all. The placement of the cottage allows for walks to local stores and sights with ease and is always a short car drive away from other things to keep every type of person amused. The underfloor heating in the bathroom was a nice little surprise too!
Me or my partner could not fault the place. The parking could be a little difficult if there are lots of other people staying in the neighbouring holiday homes. But we didn't really have an issue, and there was always somewhere close to the cottage to park.

The cottage was well presented and very clean, a well styled mix of old and new, nice shower and kitchen, living room was comfortable though sadly we weren't able to use the log burner on our trip : ( and the garden was enchanting. There was a useful welcome pack with a nice message from the host, clear instructions about parking and heating etc, interesting information about the history of the cottage and bonus items such as milk left for us in the fridge, toilet paper and hand soap which often aren't provided in holiday lets. Castleton is a lovely village to stay in with gorgeous walks, great pubs that do good food and nice gift shops. My friends and I were very happy with our stay and would consider staying again.
Only that we were advised that the log burner couldn't be used until October which was a feature we had been looking forward to using.
