    The garden is a gem and a feature of the property which has an ideal location in Castleton. My personal thought is that the marketing and photographs on Sykes website need updating as they are old and significantly undersell the property , it is much better than it looks . Happy to return.

    The property is conveniently located for walks from the door, places to eat, and 7 pubs all popular with walkers etc. Space for one vehicle off-road parking means you can come and go without having to worry where you are going to park on return or pay in the public car parks. Cottage was warm and we turned the radiators off more than once without feeling cold. Welcome pack of milk, wine and quality chocolates was a nice thought and appreciated. Overall an enjoyable stay even in a very wet weather period we were able to enjoy a relaxing week. We would book again in the future.
