As the first and most visited National Park in the UK, the Peak District offers an abundance of rolling hills, rustic farmland and breathtaking moorland to its yearly visitors of over 13 million. Set primarily in Derbyshire and Staffordshire, the natural beauty of the Peak District is defined by two contrasting landscapes – the White Peak and Dark Peak – which each offer their own unique charms. Also home to a section of the Pennines, England’s Golden Triangle and Pride and Prejudice Country, this beautiful area is bursting with things to see and do. Scale the heights of Kinder Scout, roam the Pennine Way or tuck into some tasty local food and drink in traditional pubs – whatever you choose to do, a Peak District staycation offers an unforgettable holiday to all who visit.
Staying in one of our Peak District cottages ensures you are perfectly placed for exploring all this epic national park has to offer. Base yourself near Edale where you can conquer the spectacular countryside that’s right on your doorstep; choose a cottage near Buxton where you can enjoy the best of town and country on a luxury retreat, or stay near Bakewell where you can sample the region’s most famous gastronomic export – the Bakewell tart – and visit historic sites such as Chatsworth House too.
However you spend your time, our self-catering holiday homes in the Peak District will be waiting for your after a day of adventures in the national park; from cosy cottages just right for two, to larger accommodation in which you can entertain a crowd, we have plenty of properties to choose from. Many of our Peak District cottages are dog-friendly too, so both human and hound can wander the inspiring landscape together.
