| Set
in 11 acres with a hand picked White Peak village location
outside of the village of Thorpe,
in Dovedale
(near Ashbourne). The three-star
Peveril of the Peak allows you to stay amid some of the
finest scenery of the Peak District has to offer. |
| |
With
the towering presence of Thorpe cloud as a backdrop and
the rolling Thorpe pastures to one side, your tranquility
and relaxation is assured. Numerous footpaths and trails
lie nearby with some passing through our grounds and the
famous stepping stones on the river Dove, which divides
Derbyshire and Staffordshire are minutes away. |
| |
Venturing
further afield brings you the contrasting, harsher tones
of the Dark Peak with its more rugged features. The towns
of Buxton, Ashbourne, Matlock and Bakewell lie nearby as
do character filled villages like Ilam, Hartington and Eyam
as well as Chatsworth
House and Haddon
Hall. For thrill seekers nearby Alton
Towers provides a great day out. |
