The Gables Reviews

The Gables is in an ideal position for numerous walks and sights. Also, Castleton has a range of lovely eating places. If you wish to cater for yourself, it is slightly difficult as some of the kitchen utensils are wearing out or missing. A set of new saucepans and lids, plus some new baking trays would be welcome. Also, the fridgefreezer is too small for 6 guests. For the money paid, we thought it would be tip top.

Robert

Excellent property with good central location. The owner, Christine, was really welcoming and helpful, and extra touches made it a memorable stay. We would certainly stay again.

Olivia

Absolutely gorgeous cottage with an excellent location, right in the middle of Castleton. Cosy beds and lovely sitting room, and the hot tub was a real highlight for recovering after long walks! Really thoughtful touches, like dog bowls and dog tags to borrow with the holiday address on. Kitchen well equipped and we really appreciated that some essentials had been left for us as we were only having a short stay. Our new favourite place to stay in the Hope Valley, we will certainly be back. Thank you!

Annette

There was still evidence of dog hair especially on the kitchen floor. In the corners etc and our socks generally cleaned it all up as our socks were covered in dog hair. The toilet seats need some maintenance as they were wobbly.

Richard

Thank you for a fantastic stay. Everything was perfect. What a great location.

Communication with the owners was first class and they could not have done more for us. Great location and big enough for 6 adults and 2 dogs. The en suite in each room is perfect and the the hot tub an added bonus. Would definitely recommend and will return.

Great location, good range of facilities and plenty of parking, would definitely recommend

Great location. Good spacious cottage. Good amenities. Lovely and warm. Nice to have a hot tub, pool table to come back to after lovely walks.

We had a great family weekend at the Gables, it was just as described on the website. There were plenty of extra little touches that were very welcome , from the welcome basket,dog bits ,fresh flowers and a welcome note , perfect. The games table was a big hit too. There was a hot tub but we didn't get round to using it. Beds were very comfy. Great location with several great pubs within walking distance. Thank you

Another wonderful stay at The Gables. Highly recommend this property. Great location in the centre of Castleton shops, pubs & cafes all within walking distance. Fantastic walks from the front door. The boot room is ideal for coming back from muddy walks. The hot tub & games room are also an added bonus. This was our second stay & dont think it will be our last. Thanks again Chris.

Lovely property in a great location, clean and well equipped. Thank you so much.

Robert

The property was as described in the listing it was well equipped, clean and reasonably comfortable. We did some lovely local walks Hope, Cave Dale but we confess to driving to Mam Tor. The kitchen was well equipped to cook for a family but there are some great pubs near by if cooking isn't your thing. The family also made good use of the hot tub as well. There are one or two rough edges that surprised me at this pricepoint, e.g. wobblyloose door handles in the ensuite but these didn't detract from the holiday. The driveway was very narrow and getting an SUV in can be a challenge if you don't like reversing. Road noise was only an issue on the first evening Fri and we didn't really notice it again. With the prime location, a bakery and shop on the same street it's a great property and we'd recommend it to others.

Gregory

We had a lovely stay at The Gables. It is a really lovely property, it has everything you need for a great holiday. It is set in the middle of the village with pubs and restaurants minutes walk away. There are some lovely walks straight from the door. I look forward to returning to The Gables.

The Gables is a comfortable, home from home in the beautiful town of Castleton. It's the ideal base for exploring the Peak District, either on foot or via a short drive. The Gables has everything you require for a relaxing week away including a games room, a comfortable lounge, a well appointed kitchen and the best bit was the hot tub to soothe those aching legs after a day in the hills. The location was ideal, the shop is about 5m away, the coffee shop is next to the shop, and the bakery, selling delicious breads, cakes and pastries, is within a stones throw. There are 7 drinking establishments with most selling outstanding food, particularly the Castle who's steak pies are second to none. There are some negatives as there are with all rentals however they're not showstoppers. There is traffic noise but we only really noticed this at night with the windows opened. However, this should be seen as a trade off for being in a central location and not being in the middle of nowhere. The only other negatives were the shelves above the sinks far too wide and the poorly fitted toilet seats that slip to one side. Again when compared to the positives such as the wonderful welcome hamper, a jar of dog treats and a jar of sweets, these pale into insignificance. Lastly we did have a maintenance issue whilst we were there but Chris whilst on holiday in Spain arranged for Rich to carryout a speedy repair. I would not hesitate to stay here again and would thoroughly recommend The Gables to our family and friends.

Lovely stay at The Gables, has everything you need and Chris was extremely helpful, nothing seemed too much trouble. . The only disappointment about our stay was the weather as it limited us and couldnt do all the things wed planned to do. Would definitely recommend

Andrew

Lovely property, located on a main road which at times was a little busy. Had a useful shop next door as well as a coffee shop and bakery that was very enjoyable. Nice walks from the door. Lots of nice pubs to eat out in around the village. Very relaxing stay. Really enjoyed the Peak District.

Nicola

Delightful cottage From, the moment we walked into the cottage we were overwhelmed how pet friendly it was, even was given id tags for your dog in case it was to get lost, anything you forgot for your dog it was there. Even if the weather isnt so great theres plenty of entertainment in the cottage these being, tv, games room, hot tub. Definitely would recommend this cottage to others.

We had a wonderful stay at the Gables for the weekend. The house is beautiful. Perfect for families and dogs. It had everything we needed and we very much appreciated the welcome basket full of treats! The location couldn't be better. You can walk to several pubs and local shops. It's also close to lovely walks. The garden area and the hot tub were very nice. The owner was friendly and communicative via text. Thank you so much, Chris!

We stayed for my husbands 60th birthday as a family of 5. The cottage is perfectly situated for leaving your car and walking everywhere. The hot tub was well used and the pool table provided lots of evening entertainment. Chris responded very quickly to queries prior to our visit and arranged an earlier check in for the children to add some birthday decorations although Chris had very kindly put up some balloons and proved party poppers a lovely touch! I would definitely recommend a stay here.

Natasha

Beautiful and comfortable house. In an amazing location. All the benefits of a village and amazing views.

Leonie

The Gables was such a lovely cottage, very home from home. It was in a perfect location for plenty of walking. It easily sleeps 6 people without getting under each others toes & we loved the games room, made full use of the pool table. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful property. Perfect location. Hot tub fantastic. Having the off street parking and outside space was a huge bonus. We had problems with the WiFi when we first arrived but the owner went above and beyond to resolve this within 24 hours.

Lovely cottage with added advantage of having a hot tub to relax in after a days walking. Excellent communication with the owner who contacted us to let us know the cottage was ready earlier than expected and also sent on some games we accidentally left behind.

The house was comfortable, warm and well equipped. We were very impressed with the full clean half way through our two week holiday including changing the beds and the towels and replenishing the welcome hamper , fresh flowers and topping up the coffee pods and sweet jar. The owner was very helpful and quick to respond to us. There are lots of good places to eat in the village and beautiful walks from the doorstep. The road was very busy but we should have realised that. We had a relaxing time at The Gables and can recommend it for a family holiday.

We had an amazing stay at the Gables! The welcome basket, sweet treats and dog treats were a beautiful touch. There were so many considerate items that catered for everyones needs. Especially the dog tags should our little man wander off. The games room provided lots of laughs, and everyone throughly enjoyed their stay. The location was perfect, the walks and views stunning, and the cottage superb! We cant to return. Christine was a super host, with great communication. Thank you for sharing your cottage.

The Gables was well presented with lots of little touches that made the cottage a lovely place to stay. Overall the cottage was very clean. The only issue we had was some mould in one of the bedrooms. This has been highlighted to the owner. The kitchen, living room, dining room and showers were excellent with lots of extras and a welcome pack that was much appreciated. The area was lovely, lots of walks and plenty to do and see without travelling too far. We would love to stay at the Gables again and would recommend the Gables to others. Thank you Chris for a lovely cottage making this a memorable stay.

We had an amazing stay at the Gables to celebrate my sisters 30th. Chris went above and beyond with a beautiful welcome basket and 30th balloon, as well as lots of doggy treats which was really appreciated! The house is really cosy and has everything you need whatever the weather! Amazing hot tub and games room. Thankyou for making it a great stay!

Wow what can I say Chris has thought of absolutely everything in this beautiful cottage. Dog treats, human treats, welcome basket full of goodies, you name it she has thought of it and more. Lovely garden to sit out in with hot tub & bbq. Games table in the dining room to play pool and table tennis which was great fun. It is in the centre of Castleton so location is fab with abundance of pubs, cafes etc to visit. Highly recommend The Gables to stay in and we look forward to returning.

Natasha

Lovely cottage with everything you could wish for. Also perfectly situated for a break without having to use the car.

We had a fabulous weekend, the house was perfect and in a great location. The welcome pack was unexpected but appreciated and the communication with Chris the owner was first class. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Thank you.

Thank you for looking after us so well. Thoughtful details like the generous welcome pack and preholiday, friendly phone call made a big difference. Enough private parking for three cars was a big bonus.

We had a fantastic stay at The Gables. We were there to celebrate my 40th & along with my husband & the owner Chris they pulled out all the stops & I arrived to some lovely surprises. The house is in a great location, perfect for trying out the cafes & pubs in Castleton. Great walks from the front door, including Cave Dale & Mam Tor. The added bonus of the hot tub & games room made our stay even more special. Highly recommend a stay at The Gables.

We had a wonderful stay at The Gables. The property is beautiful, and the location is perfect. The thing that really sets The Gables aside is the owner Chris, who has thought of absolutely everything to make your holiday special.

Colleen

Beautiful cottage. . Right near good pubs and great walks. We loved our stay here. The beds were really comfy, the hot tub was really appreciated after long walks and the communication and flexibility of Christhe owner was excellent. We also had fun playing pool and table tennis. Thoroughly recommend

The Gables is the perfect place to stay to visit Castleton. The thoughtful welcome pack and doggy treats from the owners made it feel like a home from home as soon as we arrived. Clean, warm and comfortable the cottage had everything we could possibly need for our family holiday.

Amazing cottage. Everything you need on the doorstep. Little added touches made the stay really personal. Couldnt fault anything

Family stayed over Christmas. From the second we stepped into The Gables, it felt so homely. The facilities are amazing, we wanted for nothing during our stay! All 3 bedrooms were incredibly comfortable and cozy, all with their own ensuites which was a huge bonus. We had much fun in the games room playing pool mostly, this was brilliant as the weather was not on our side! The owners have thought of everything, from little Christmas gifts under the tree for us all including the dog, to all the added extras that you wouldnt necessarily expect from a holiday rental. We didnt use the hot tub as it rained pretty much the whole time, the tub is at the bottom of the garden with no cover which would be amazing in the summer but during winter months it felt a little off limits, but this didnt detract from the amazing stay we had here. Castleton itself is beautiful. The location of the cottage is perfect and lots of walks had with the dog. We will definitely return. Thanks for making our stay so welcoming, we loved it!

Nicola

The Gables is in a fantastic location and perfect for outdoor holidays. The cottage was clean, cosy and warm. The beds were comfortable and each bedroom had en suite facilities. The owner catered really well for dog guests, leaving toys and beds and tags in the boot room, which was a great space for walking boots etc. There was even a box of repair essentials for cyclists to use. Off road parking for 2 but we squeezed 3 cars onto the drive with careful manoeuvring. Would have liked some extra serving dishessalad bowls etc for the kitchen, but that did not detract from a wonderful and relaxing holiday. Thank you.
