Spring House. Available for nine weeks over July/September, Spring House is a bright, charming and stylish Grade II listed 1820s farmhouse sympathetically updated for the 21st century. The house sleeps 8 in four bedrooms and, like the cottages, is located within walking distance of Castleton with its castle, caves and mines and set amongst some of the country’s best walking routes.

The relaxing four bedroomed, three reception roomed Georgian farmhouse is in a stunning location, with a beautiful south facing garden. The house offers 3 double rooms with super king, king and queen sized beds plus a twin room (and a sofa bed in the study). There are two upstairs bathrooms (one with a shower and a roll top bath, the other shower only) plus a downstairs cloakroom. Well behaved dogs are welcome (max 1) at no extra charge. Absolutely no puppies, young dogs under 18 month, in season or aggressive dogs please!

The house is available for seven or 14 night stays only, Saturday-Saturday over the summer months

The Shepherd’s Hut: In addition to the house and cottages there is a Shepherd’s Hut at Spring House Farm, (sleeps two). Available for short and longer stays, unfortunately it doesn’t take dogs. Again prices and availability are on the website.

Spring House Farm is situated near Castleton, in the Hope Valley, which is generally regarded as the heart of the Peak District National Park.
