So grateful to the staff at the Information Centre. They were incredibly patient in explaining the walking route and gave us such helpful directions. Their kindness made our visit so much easier. Thank you again! 😊

Beautiful part of the Peak District with stunning scenery all around. Castleton is charming, peaceful, and perfect for a relaxed day trip with cafés, walks, and lovely views. The drive through Hope Valley itself is breathtaking, especially in good weather. A perfect escape from the city. Toilets and parking available

Castleton Visitor Centre is a great starting point for anyone exploring the Peak District. The parking facilities are very good, with plenty of space and easy access to the village and surrounding hiking routes. The toilets are clean and well-maintained, which is always appreciated before or after a long walk. The small shop inside has a nice selection of local products, maps, and hiking essentials, and the coffee is surprisingly good — perfect for a quick warm-up before setting off. Overall, it’s an excellent place to park and begin a hike in the Peak District. Convenient, tidy, and well-equipped for walkers. Highly recommended.

It's a very interesting and stunning historical location. I would give it 5 stars of it wasn't for the smell of urine in the stairways. I don't know if its adults letting their children urinate there or people just being disrespectful before they don't want to wait for the toilet. It's sad that people do this and embarrassing at the thought of the many foreign visitors that want to explore English history and go away with how it stank of urine. The staff at the visitors centre were really nice and friendly and I doubt they are aware of the problem. But it's a beautiful location and history

It is a great visitor centre with a really great add-on of a museum. It's only small but it's full of facts and is free. Castleton itself is an interesting little ace with some good pubs and restaurants.
