A 15 minute drive away, this heated outdoor swimming pool is a little gem. Beautiful scenery all around as you swim! You will need to book especially in the summer months. Hathersage is also a lovely village to explore.

A spectacular walk located off the Square in Castleton offers a scenic walk through a gully for picturesque views of the Peveril Castle ruins. It is rocky path so not for the faint hearted so a fairly hard walk. Suitable footwear needed. The path leads onto the Limestone Way but you can walk back to the village via Winnatts Pass.
