    The village is lovely, lots of walks, the dogs loved it, The Bulls Head and Ye Olde Nags Head did lovely food, Unfortunately one of the dogs discovered that there were cats in the garden next door and cleared the wall to chase, only did it once, Other than that a lovely stay,

  • "Extremely well presented and clean property set in the heart of the Peak District."

    Clearly refurbished to a high standard containing essentials such as washing machine, two bathrooms and full compliment of kitchen equipment. The owners have thought of everything, even down to branded umbrellas upon exit and outside hose to clean the dog following another great walk. Superb quiet location in a busy village right on the doorstep of wonderful walk after wonderful walk. It was a pleasure to stay at Brookhouse which should be the benchmark for all other rental standards.

  • "Beautiful clean, comfortable, well equipped cottage in wonderful location."

    Thoughtful welcome hamper, much appreciated. Great quality bed linens, towels and toiletries. Useful information folders. Parking was tight and tricky but manageable with a small car…our Kona just fit. We had a Tesco delivery which was great, be mindful of small fridge with freezer compartment. Amazing selection of casserole dishes which was great, but maybe could be reduced to give a bit more space in the cupboards, and a small pan would be handy. Cottage might be a bit tight for 6 adults, and first floor bath/shower has limited height…was just ok for us and my over 6’ son and partner were ok in the beautiful loft bedroom. We enjoyed a wonderful week’s holiday at Brookhouse with lots of great walks from the door and from Ladybower reservoir a short drive away. Thanks to the owners who have done a great job updating this lovely old cottage.

We enjoyed the front garden as we were lucky with the weather but it wasn’t secure enough for our adventurous dog who tried to jump the low wall. Thank you for the welcome hamper which was a really nice touch. The house and Castleton is a fantastic base for a holiday!

  • "This is a lovely cottage in the magical village of Castleton which I have regularly visited since my parents moved to the Hope Valley village of Froggatt in 1980 where they remained for nearly 25 years."

    Brookhouse is fitted out to a very high standard. The kitchen is narrow but very well designed with plenty of cupboard space. The two bathrooms are modern and easy to use. The cottage was comfortable and warm - there were six of us (plus one dog) and we found plenty of room with the only slight exception is that the double bed in the middle floor would ideally have been wider although the width of room would make this difficult. Castleton is a wonderful village and its location is such that there are fabulous walks without having to take a car. We went ip Mam Tor twice and walked the ridge to Lose Hill. In the evenings, we enjoyed the excellent Castleton hostelries - though gutted we did not quite manage to win the Sunday quiz in the Cheshire Cheese. All in all, a lovely family (2 brothers of mature age, their wives and a daughter each) break. Thank you!

    Dear Jonathan, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Brook House and found the charm of Castleton, it truly is an incredible place. Please do all come and stay again. Best wishes, Rob & Ben Property Owner

    Heating and hot water spot on and cleanliness impeccable. We loved the high standard of the bedding and towels - made it feel like staying in a special hotel! I’ve only marked comfort down by one as we felt that given the space available in the second bedroom, it would benefit from a king size bed - having spent the last 30 plus years in a king size it was uncomfortable to go back to a double for a week. Thanks for a great stay!

    Dear David, thank you for taking the time out to post your review. We're pleased that you all enjoyed your family holiday with us.

    The towels were lovely & smelled beautiful, the freshly baked brack cake was delicious & the kitchen was superbly equipped with high end utensils. Literally the only suggestions we would make would be to provide some espresso cups to go with the lovely Nespresso machine & maybe consider painting a white line along the edge of the steps which would make parking the car in the dark a little easier. We have booked Brook House again later in the year - a no brainer for more Peak District walking.

The property

Brookhouse is a large semi-detached cottage which has been beautifully renovated, and has spectacular views over to the historic Peveril Castle, ideal for a family of six looking to find a peaceful base in the heart of the Peak District countryside.

The cottage is based on a quiet residential road just a stroll away from the main high street, entered through an enclosed front parking bay and delightful patio with a fabulous outdoor dining area for those balmy summer days and alfresco meals.

Spanning over three floors are three attractive bedrooms, boasting original character throughout with feature stone walling, exposed beams, sloped ceilings and views out to the hills.
