Description
Resting in the peaceful village of Castleton, Derbyshire is Trickett Gate Cottage, a characterful, three-bedroom dwelling, delightfully combining its medieval history with contemporary amenities. Enjoying a prime position in the Peak District National Park, enveloped by beauty spots, whilst resting a stone’s throw away from shops, eateries, and a wide range of picturesque walks from the doorstep, the cottage offers the ideal base for a family getaway or an active break, inviting five guests. Private parking for two cars on the property is very welcome after a long journey or when returning from a trip out. Unpack at your leisure before heading to the rear of the property, accessing via the kitchen/diner, fully-equipped to meet your self-catering needs. Rustle up homecooked meals and dine in this space, or if you'd prefer an alfresco affair, eat in the enclosed garden, enjoying views of Peakshole Water flowing past the end of the garden. Whether you have been for a gentle stroll to the pub, walking, cycling or pursuing one of the many easily accessible outdoor activities kick off your boots or store your bike in the utility room and return indoors to relax and unwind in the sitting room. Adorned with beamed ceilings and exposed stonework this room boasts an intriguing medieval staircase. A gas fired ‘wood burner effect’ stove adds warmth to the atmosphere with entertainment provided by the Sky Glass TV and smart speaker with Amazon music. Rest your eyes in one of the three bedrooms, including a spacious double, a double with a desk, ideal for remote workers, and a single, all serviced by a shower room. Awaken to explore your surroundings; stroll around this picturesque village brimming with history with the imposing Peveril Castle and the underground guided tours offered by the Peak and Speedwell Caverns just minutes away. Winnats Pass, Cave Dale and Mam Tor provide spectacular walking and cycling opportunities accessible from your doorstep or venture just a few miles further to ascend Kinder Scout from Edale or stroll around the peaceful Ladybower reservoir and marvel at the bravery of the Dambuster Squadron that trained there. Recommended to pack your walking boots for.
Head to Buxton to discover Poole's Cavern, a two-million-year-old natural limestone cave, trek up to Solomon’s Temple or enjoy a play at Buxton’s famous Opera House. Round off your trip with a tour of Bakewell, crossing over Bakewell Bridge and perhaps sampling an original Bakewell pudding before discovering the magnificent Haddon Hall, following the Monsal Trail, ideal for walking or cycling across the national park or heading for the fascinating ‘plague village’ of Eyam. Experience a peaceful getaway at Trickett Gate Cottage.

A beautiful and comfortable cottage.
Ancient in construction but modern in comfort. I felt immediately at home so able to relax and enjoy my holiday immediately. Situated in a quiet but central location in vibrant Castleton with views of the castle. Two minute walk from the local store, bakery and some lovely pubs. This is the epicentre of hiking in Derbyshire. Plenty of options locally to walk. No need for the car. A more stunning location you could not wish for. One word of caution. If you are six foot three watch your head on the low downstairs ceiling.
We loved staying at Trickett Gate cottage, the cottage was very comfortable, extremely clean and had every amenity needed for a self catering stay.
The garden was a massive bonus and we spent a few hours simply relaxing and enjoying the sunshine after long days walking. An added bonus is that considering Castleton does get busy with traffic you couldn’t hear the road at all (unlike other cottages we’ve stayed at in Castleton). We simply didn’t want to leave.
Excellent property in a superb location in the Peak District.
Couldn't have been better.
