  • "A lovely, recently renovated house in the beautiful Derbyshire dales."

    The property has everything you could want for the perfect stay.

  • "Eboracum is a lovely, comfortable, clean and well appointed house, set in beautiful surroundings."

    The ample gardens around the house are well maintained and if you have good weather the outdoor furniture is a real bonus. There's lots to do in the area, with many attractions like Chatsworth House, Bakewell, Castleton and the Blue John mine (and others) nearby. There's no end of local walks: short, long, easy or challenging if you're so inclined. It's only a short walk into Hathersage, where there are plenty of eating places and handy shops, The house is up a short incline, but nothing too strenuous. We had a fantastic break there and can highly recommend the property.

  • "We had a comfortable stay here, and the house is in easy walking distance of Hathersage which has a few pubs, local shops and a Lido (best to book online, especially in the school holidays)."

    Nice sunny garden, and the house had what we needed for our stay. Has a great TV and comfy sofas. The house has been done up to a great standard and we had a great stay.

  • "It is clear that care and attention have been given to the renovation of the property."

    The location is beautiful and the house has everything you'd need for your stay. However, there were several factors that fell short of expectations. On arrival a lot of the kitchen equipment was dirty and required washing before use. I would recommend a thorough deep clean of all kitchen items and some maintenance work on the dishwasher. The single bedroom is incredibly small and this was not clear from the advert. Only really suitable for a child or very short adult. The 09:30 check out was unexpected and seemed unreasonably early given normal check out from accommodation is usually 11:00. Throughout the property there were various strange smells, especially noticeable in the smaller of the two double rooms. The smell was a weird mix of stale/musty but also vinegar. The bottom of the stairs is too small and a design flaw in the property for a high footfall area in the house. This is accentuated by the shoe cupboard further obstructing a pinch point in the corridor. Although the house manual is explicit about guests being quiet after 22:00 in your instructions the neighbours were very noisy after midnight.

  • "The cottage was a lovely surprise."

    So clean, comfortable and spacious. We would certainly book again. The owners have been very thoughtful in providing all possible utensils required. Right down to a cocktail shaker x

  • "Lovely newly renovated property, done to a high standard."

    Not that it made a difference but I did not read the description properly. The second bedroom only has a shower & sink, not a toilet, not a problem for us and there was a second toilet downstairs. Would highly recommend this property.

  • "This place was IMMACULATE."

    Beautifully decorated and maintained. The kitchen was also very well equipped. Often with rentals the kitchen is quite poor but they had everything you could want and need. Very easy check in with clear instructions and an easy to follow guide for how to work everything. The house is up a slight hill which means the views are stunning. Very quiet and peaceful - was exactly what we wanted. Will definitely be booking again in the future!

  • "A lovely house in a great location."

    Spotlessly clean with great facilities. Our only criticism was the usability of the sink in the en-suite; with the cabinet above it made it hard to use - just a minor thing. Would definitely recommend Eboracum though.

  • "This is a beautiful house in a great location - handy for footpaths up onto the moors as well as Hathersage town."

    The EV car charger was very handy for us, and using the QR code provided made it simple to charge - a great asset! The house has recently been decorated and was immaculate throughout with luxurious carpets and great facilities. There is so much to praise about Eboracum, but it is worth noting that the main bedroom en-suite is shower only (no toilet) which we hadn't realised in advance, so everyone uses the main bathroom toilet (or downstairs cloakroom wc). Also we found that the dining chairs, which are unpadded, are a bit uncomfortable after a while so used some cushions from the lounge. These are however only minor points and didn't detract from a great stay with excellent hosts.

  • "I would highly recommend Eboracum."

    The standard of all aspects of the cottage was excellent. The owners have thought of everything, managing to combine cosiness with a modern decor, done to a high standard. Add to that it's situation in Hathersage where you have easy access to so many beautiful parts of the Peak District. A really relaxing, enjoyable break.

The property

Hathersage 0.5 miles.

Eboracum is a beautifully-refurbished house sitting atop the lovely village of Hathersage, in the heart of the Peak District National Park.

With its incredible scenic views and easy access to many local amenities, this property sleeps five, making it perfect for families and groups of friends looking for a base to explore Derbyshire.

Cross the tastefully landscaped front lawn and step into the house to find a sitting room equipped with a large sofa and woodburning stove for you to stretch out on, and a Smart TV for your family movie nights.

If you’re feeling peckish, make your way to the kitchen/diner armed with everything you need to whip up feasts for your loved ones; if the weather allows, why not take the feast outside to the rear enclosed patio and lawn and make use of the barbecue to grill up some delicious burgers?

When sleep calls, head to the family bathroom to unwind in a warm bath or hot shower before heading to bed in one of three well-presented bedrooms.

Those lucky enough to get the en-suite room can enjoy views of the sun setting below the hills.

Tear yourself away from your newfound haven to the local village of Hathersage where you’ll be spoilt for choice of shops and eateries.

Head to Restaurant at The Scotsmans Pack for a classic, hearty pub meal, Hathersage Kitchen by Evangeline for some alfresco dining when the sun is shining or Cintra's Tearoom with its buttery pastries and fragrant teas.

When you’re ready for some adventure, make your way to the Peak District National Park where you’ll be able to hike across the vast plains of central England and take in the crisp fresh air; walk through the limestone valley of Cave Dale to find the ruins of Peveril Castle, where you’ll be able to enjoy a light lunch in its picnic area.

If you’re feeling brave enough, walk over to Peak Cavern, the UK's largest cave entrance, for underground tours of cave networks.

Then drive to the stunning city of Sheffield to stroke the alpacas and feed the meerkats at Mayfield Alpacas Animal Park, visit the Winter Garden, a breathtaking glasshouse, home to over 2,000 plant specimens from around the world, and end the day with an educational trip to Weston Park Museum with its interactive exhibits and fight away the ducks while you picnic at Weston Park.

Endless experiences at adventures await you at Eboracum.

About the location

HATHERSAGE

Castleton 5 miles; Curbar 5 miles.

The attractive village of Hathersage (‘Heathers Edge’) is situated within the Peak District National Park at the beginning of the Hope Valley and close to excellent walking at Edale. Many visitors come to Hathersage to visit the churchyard and the grave of “Little John” (of Robin Hood fame) - whether he ever really existed is for you to decide! Charlotte Bronte’s famous novel Jane Eyre is thought to have been inspired by her visit to Hathersage vicarage in 1845. For a village of its size there is a very good selection of shops, pubs and places to eat, as well as a public, open air heated swimming pool and railway station. A great centre for exploring the Peak District!
