    This stone-built farmhouse, with its ivy covered exterior, is nestled beneath Mam Tor in the Peak District. The cottage and garden have uninterrupted views over Hope Valley and walks from the door. 

    Sleeping four, Mam Farm is great for either friends or family groups. Whether you’re an outdoor enthusiast or just in need of some relaxing time out in the country, a stay in this spot at the foot of the so-called ‘Shivering Mountain’ will undoubtedly lift your spirits. You’ll be close to the historic village of Castleton, famous for the semi-precious ‘Blue John’ stone and home to some impressive caverns. You can travel by car or take a leisurely stroll to the village, where you will find sweet little shops and places to eat. 

    This part of the Peak District, with its picturesque villages and jaw-dropping views, is popular with walkers and cavers, who come for the fascinating network of underground caverns. You can even take a boat trip through the cavern at Speedwell. Nearby Edale (where you’ll find the lovely Penny Pot Cafe) is at the start of the Pennine Way, which at 268 miles long stretches all the way to Northumberland. Edale is also where you’ll find the Moorlands Visitor Centre. There are also great views from the ruins of Peveril Castle (run by English Heritage) or head out to Kinder or the wider Dark Peak area to explore more of the area’s highlights.
