Overview

Situated in the heart of the Peak District National Park, YHA Castleton Losehill Hall is a fully refurbished gothic mansion, set within 27 acres of parkland and offering stunning views across its picturesque surroundings. Most of the grounds are pastureland currently used for grazing livestock from a nearby farm, so you may see some sheep up close.

Castleton itself is one of the Peak District’s most charming villages, with Peveril Castle, plenty of small, independent shops and numerous pubs for guests to explore and enjoy. Castleton is also famed for its caves and caverns, most notably the Blue John Cavern, and is a haven for walkers, with walks up Mam Tor among a vast range of routes.

History

YHA Castleton Losehill Hall started life as a gentleman’s residence for Squire Ashton, the son of the family who lived in Castleton Hall in the centre of the village, coincidentally the home of the YHA before we moved up to Losehill.

Built in 1882, it has been extended since to include the arched mews building. The formal gardens were laid out in Victorian times and have a well preserved boundary.  The parkland is a scheduled ancient monument as it is an example of a Saxon/medieval ridge and furrow field system.  The ridges are still clearly visible as you stroll around the park.

The village of Castleton dates back 900 years, it was built around Peveril Castle by William Peveril, son of William the conqueror and has much of its medieval grid pattern and town ditch still intact and preserved. The hillfort on Mam Tor is older still, built 3,000 years ago by the Celtic Brigante tribe. It is a great place to watch the sunrise or set. There is a replica celtic settlement in the grounds of Losehill Hall.
