Accommodation details

Aston Cottages, Hope, are on a small holding that dates back to the 17th Century. The Dimings was once a small farm belonging to Aston Hall - we now have sheep, cows and chickens. Nestling beneath Win Hill, Aston Cottages are in the heart of the Derbyshire Peak District and a great base to explore the National Park.

Local attractions

          Aston Cottages are in superb areas from which to explore the delights of the Peak District. Right from the front door of your cottage therer is plenty to explore and enjoy. A walk up to Win Hill, especially on a clear day is a beautiful walk and offers the chance to see the spectacular Derwent Valley, the "Dambuster Dams" and the rugged moorlands of the Dark Peak.

A half mile down the wooded lane is Hope with its shops, pubs, post office and railway station. Beyond Hope lies Castleton with the Blue John Caverns and ancient Peveril Castle. Hathersage has an open air swimming pool and tennis courts and Little John's grave in the churchyard.

Edale and the start of the Pennine Way is only six miles away. The Market towns of Buxton and Bakewell (both indoor swimming pools) are both worth exploring. Bakewell is famous for it's puddings and traditional market day on Mondays. Buxton is 10 miles away and Bakewell 12. Further afield but still easy to get to is Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and Matlock and Matlock Bath.

The Peak District offers something special for everyone from great Derbyshire pubs to visit, beautiful and historic Derbyshire churches and of course the ancient tradition of Well Dresings.

Don't just visit. Stay!
