About us

Peak Holidays is a trading name for blue limes ltd, a small company based in Sheffield, which has been trading since 1999.

We offer a selection of high-quality self-catering holiday cottages in the Peak District  many of them owned and managed by ourselves. Our cottages are all built of traditional stone. They have all been refurbished to a high standard, but we have kept as many of the original features as possible. 

Each cottage is equipped to the highest standard and they all provide an ideal base to explore the delights of the Peak District. All our cottages are available throughout the year and we will always be flexible wherever we can, to accommodate the start date and length of holiday you prefer.  Pets are welcome at no extra cost.

There are no additional charges - the price you see advertised is the price you pay. We look after our cottages and our guests personally and are on-call throughout your stay should you need any help or advice. See some of our guests comments Find out more >>>

We look forward to seeing you! Why not have a look at our cottages now - click here

Did you Know?

The Peak District National Park covers 555 square miles or 1,438 square kilometres – about the size of Greater London, or 144,000 football pitches.

Millions of years ago the Peak District was a tropical lagoon. The fossils of tiny sea creatures can still be seen today in the limestone rocks and dry stone walls.

---

The Peak District National Park has 1,600 miles of public rights of way and 58 miles of dedicated off-road cycle trails.

Titan Cave near Castleton has the deepest natural shaft in the UK. At 141.5 metres, or 464 feet, it is deeper than the height of the London Eye. It was rediscovered in 2000, after years of historical research by local cavers.

In the late18th century, the National Park’s rivers helped give birth to the Industrial Revolution by providing water power for the world’s first factories – including cotton mills at Calver, Cressbrook, Litton and Lumford, and further downstream, Cromford, now a World Heritage Site.

The millstone is one of the classic images of the Peak District. At Millstone Edge near Hathersage, you can see the remains of old millstones – once used by the Sheffield cutlery industry – abandoned after cheaper imports became available.
