Description

Llamedos is a lovely 17 century cottage, restored to a high standard and located in picturesque Castleton in the midst of the Peak District. The cottage's spacious accommodation combines beamed ceilings and other traditional features with more modern facilities. Add its location, in a quiet corner of the village just off the green, to make this a very rare find.

Castleton is a beautiful village, gathered around the church and green and set in a magnificent cauldron of hills. It is also a very interesting village with 'country' shops to browse around, the famous Blue John caverns to explore, Peveril Castle to storm and many a pub and restaurant to visit after a hard day’s walking.

How about climbing to the top of Mam Tor to marvel at the views, exploring rugged Edale, or venturing out along the Pennine Way. On more restful days, visit Tideswell with its well dressings, the 'Dambusters' Derwent Valley dams or Victorian Buxton. Children will treasure memories of the 'dares' they gave each other in Chatsworth's adventure playground, the exciting underground boating experience in Speedwell Cavern and the wonderful owls and otters in the nearby Chestnut wildlife sanctuary.

Reviews

Over the years I have stayed in many cottages in Castleton. Most of them have been very good but Llamedos cottage was absolutely excellent. Will book again.

Mr M,

I have always found staff friendly and helpful so the booking process has been easy. This was my 4th visit to this property. I cannot fault anything about it. The property was very clean and well maintained. The location, in Castleton was excellent with many different walks from the door. The added bonus of parking on site meant that I hardly took the car out.

Miss Patricia H,

Location

CASTLETON

Castleton is a very popular village at the head of the Hope Valley with a very good range of shops, pubs and restaurants.  It is guarded by Peveril Castle standing proud above the village and the famous ‘Blue John’ Caverns can be found in the hillside. It is the only place in the world where the semi-precious ‘Blue John’ stone is found and still mined. Set in a cauldron of hills the drive up Winnat’s Pass is exciting and the view from the top of Mam Tor (the Shivering Mountain) is amazing.

If you drop down from Mam Tor you are soon in Edale, which is a lovely little village in its own wild valley, that has won awards as one of the best villages in the country. It is also at the start of the Pennine Way long distance footpath that quickly takes you up on to the high moorlands of Kinder Scout. You need to be a hardened walker to venture up on to the moorland but if you do you can see the Kinder Downfall where the water really does flow up hill and, if you are lucky, you might also spot one of the rare White Hares.

Hope and Hathersage are along the main Hope Valley and are other great villages to explore with a range of local shops, pubs and restaurants. David Mellor’s Round Building cutlery factory, kitchen shop and café on the edge of Hathersage is one of our real favourites and an absolute must for you to visit. And then you might also like to hop on to a train for a day out in Sheffield or Manchester.

Local pubs: The Castle, Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese and the Bulls Head Hotel in Castleton.
