Holiday Cottages With Hot Tubs In Castleton

Reviews

What our customers say about their holidays

  The Gables is a comfortable, home from home in the beautiful town of Castleton.

  It's the ideal base for exploring the Peak District, either on foot or via a short drive. The Gables has everything you require for a relaxing week away including a games room, a comfortable lounge, a well appointed kitchen and the best bit was the hot tub to soothe those aching legs after a day in the hills. The location was ideal, the shop is about 5m away, the coffee shop is next to the shop, and the bakery, selling delicious breads, cakes and pastries, is within a stones throw. There are 7 drinking establishments with most selling outstanding food, particularly the Castle who's steak pies are second to none. There are some negatives as there are with all rentals however they're not showstoppers. There is traffic noise but we only really noticed this at night with the windows opened. However, this should be seen as a trade off for being in a central location and not being in the middle of nowhere. The only other negatives were the shelves above the sinks (far too wide) and the poorly fitted toilet seats that slip to one side. Again when compared to the positives such as the wonderful welcome hamper, a jar of dog treats and a jar of sweets, these pale into insignificance. Lastly we did have a maintenance issue whilst we were there but Chris (whilst on holiday in Spain) arranged for Rich to carryout a speedy repair. I would not hesitate to stay here again and would thoroughly recommend The Gables to our family and friends.

  Family stayed over Christmas.

  From the second we stepped into The Gables, it felt so homely. The facilities are amazing, we wanted for nothing during our stay! All 3 bedrooms were incredibly comfortable and cozy, all with their own en-suites which was a huge bonus. We had much fun in the games room playing pool mostly, this was brilliant as the weather was not on our side! The owners have thought of everything, from little Christmas gifts under the tree for us all including the dog, to all the added extras that you wouldn’t necessarily expect from a holiday rental. We didn’t use the hot tub as it rained pretty much the whole time, the tub is at the bottom of the garden with no cover which would be amazing in the summer but during winter months it felt a little off limits, but this didn’t detract from the amazing stay we had here. Castleton itself is beautiful. The location of the cottage is perfect and lots of walks had with the dog. We will definitely return. Thanks for making our stay so welcoming, we loved it!

  Overall we really enjoyed our stay at 2 Carr Farm Close.

  The house was very well equipped and there were toys and games for the children. The owners were very helpful and even phoned and emailed us ahead of arrival to check we we knew where we were going. They also gave helpful suggestions for activities in the area. The hot tub was enjoyed by everyone in our group. A couple of problems; the thermostat on the tumble dryer appeared to be broken as it kept cutting out after about 10 minutes - difficult as we had to take our own towels and this meant it wasn't easy to dry them. Also, there were no oven gloves in the kitchen and only one tea towel (we know the owners asked for everything to be washed in the dish washer, which we did) but a couple of tea towels at least would have been handy. Overall, an enjoyable experience and the house was well located in a quiet area but within easy walking distance of Glossop centre.

  Lovely cottage in a beautiful part of the country.

  We were a group of 6 and absolutely loved our stay. The hot tub, Games room, fire and spacious layout was perfect for us. We just needed to YouTube how to use the hot tub as we couldn’t work it out. There were lots of little touches that greeted us on arrival which made us feel welcome. We didn’t have pets but it looks welcoming for anyone bringing animals with the supplies provided. There was no Wi-Fi but that didn’t bother us. The owner was so helpful with any questions or concerns. The cottage is the perfect base to explore the Peak District. It is also suitable for guests who don’t have access to a car due to the amount of walks, caverns, restaurants & pubs on the doorstep and bus/train links either from Castleton/ Hope. We couldn’t fault this house or location and would love the excuse to go back.

  Castleton is a great location to explore the delights of the Peak District.

  The Gables provided us with a spacious base for our family party of 5 adults a 6 year old and a toddler. The kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of crockery, cutlery, glassware and pans and having a dishwasher and washing machine was perfect. The dining room doubles up as a games room and this was a real hit with the little ones. There were so many games to play there really was something for everyone. The lounge had plenty of comfy seating for us all to spread out and lounge after busy days out. All 3 bedrooms were a good size. The shower rooms were small but functional. Private parking was a bonus, although not the easiest access. The small pretty garden area has a hot tub, bbq and plenty of seating. We loved our stay at the Gables and would definitely return.
