Location

Positioned on the banks of the River Dove on the outskirts of the popular village of Hartington in the Derbyshire Peak District. Approximately 10 miles from the Market Town of Leek and 11 Miles from Buxton.

Hartington is a small village located in the northern part of the Dovedale valley, boasting a population of only around 320 people. Given its positioning, Hartington was once a prominent market town for Dovedale’s rural farmers during the middle ages; today, although its former market hall still stands as one of the main buildings in the village, the market no longer takes place. Still, Hartington has become a popular tourist destination in recent years, mostly for its scenery, its cheese, and its quaintness.

In the heart of Hartington lies a large village square, with an idyllic duck pond positioned in the centre. Impressive buildings are found throughout the village, including Hartington Hall, a former stately home turned youth hostel, built in 1611. Other impressive buildings include St Giles Church and the Charles Cotton Hotel.

The village also has a selection of gift shops, some great bars, and the famed Hartington Cheese Shop. A number of footpaths leave from the village and take you to some of the best scenes in the Dovedale section of the Peak District, including Thor’s Cave, Arbor Low Stone Circle, and Gib Hill Barrow.
