When it comes to days out from Greater Manchester, the Peak District can be hard to beat. Located right on our doorstep, it's a place where you'll find breath taking moorland walks, stunning waterfalls and picturesque villages.
Castleton is one of the most popular villages to visit in the Peak District, and it's easy to see why with its charming cottages and intriguing caves. Yet a stone’s throw away from this tourist hotspot is another beautiful village which is ideal for those who are looking to escape the crowds.
Hope lies one and a half miles east of Castleton, at the point where Peakshole Water flows into the River Noe in the heart of the Hope Valley. The village is overlooked by Lose Hill and Win Hill to the north, while to the south stands the Breedon Hope Cement Works, which can be seen from miles around - and you may even recognise it from Channel 4's ident.
