Why we love it
What sets Hoe Grange apart is its particular kind of calm: a small, carefully run farm stay where the Peak District feels softer, slower and more restorative. The glamping pods sit lightly in the landscape, with views over rolling Derbyshire hills, dark skies overhead and the low-level soundtrack of birdsong, grazing sheep and pygmy goats nearby. It feels private without ever being isolated, and thoughtful rather than showy.

About the Property
Hoe Grange Holidays offers a grown-up take on glamping in a peaceful pocket of the White Peak, between Ashbourne and Bakewell. The two pods are designed for those who want to be close to the landscape without giving up comfort, and the whole place has an easy, unforced warmth. Skylark is the more indulgent of the two, with a secluded outdoor bath looking over the hills; Swallow suits those after the same quiet simplicity, with the option of adding a hot tub or sauna. Fresh homemade touches on arrival, free bikes to borrow and a strong sense of care throughout make this feel less like a novelty stay and more like a proper countryside exhale.
Location
Derbyshire Peak District
This part of the Peak District has a gentler character than the moorier reaches further north: limestone dales, dry-stone walls, tucked-away villages and rolling pasture rather than drama for drama’s sake. Hoe Grange is well placed for the White Peak’s walking and cycling, with Bakewell, Ashbourne and a string of handsome market towns within easy reach. It is a landscape that rewards unhurried days — long views, quiet lanes, pub lunches and evenings under some of the county’s clearest skies.
