Set within the tiny hamlet of Millers Dale, in the heart of the Peak District on the River Wye, the scenery is magnificent, with the impressive Ravenstor Cliff only a short distance down the road, on the route to the infamous Litton Mill. This was once a major junction on the midland railway line and Millers Dale was one of the largest stations on the line, which now boasts spectacular views of the twin viaducts that once carried the powerful steam locomotives. This old line now forms a traffic free route for 8½ miles of walking and cycling, passing through some of the Peak Districts amazing limestone valleys. Tideswell, Buxton, Bakewell, Castleton and Chatsworth are all close by. There are some excellent walks with rugged peaks to the north, and gentle hills to the south. This fantastic property really does provide perfect accommodation for those looking to come and explore historic Peak District towns, and enjoy this part of the country at any time of the year. Shop 3 miles, pub and restaurant ½ mile.

We had a lovely stay at the Station house. The location is great as it’s directly on the Monsal Trail and walking distance of a cafe, pub and numerous walks. The house was clean and tidy and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Would recommend to anyone wanting to visit the Peak District.
