Whether you’re looking to relax by the fire, explore the great outdoors, or visit local attractions, Danes Cottage is the perfect base for your Peak District adventure.

The space
Danes Cottage is a beautifully interior-designed, double-fronted terraced home located in the picturesque town of Chapel-en-le-Frith.

Nestled in the heart of the Peak District, the cottage is surrounded by stunning landscapes, perfect for hiking, cycling, and exploring. Danes Cottage serves as an ideal retreat for families and friends looking to explore the area while enjoying the convenience of nearby village amenities.

The interior harmoniously blends historic features, such as stone walls and exposed wooden beams, with modern luxury furnishings, creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere perfect to relax, dine and replenish the soul.

Enjoy a good book on the sofa by the wood-burning stove, then gather in the dining room for a hearty meal with loved ones.

The separate, well-equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare your favourite meals.

Upstairs, the elegant and spacious bedrooms are accessed via a fairly steep dog-leg staircase and offer stunning views over Church Brow and beyond.

After a day of exploring the Peak District, unwind with a relaxing soak or take a quick shower before heading out on your next adventure.

At the front of the cottage, a pretty terrace provides a lovely spot to enjoy a cup of tea while overlooking the cobbled street and planning your day.

Chapel-en-le-Frith, known as the “Capital of the Peak,” is rich in history and boasts excellent eateries, pubs, and independent shops.

Visit the Old Cell Ale Bar or Deacons Bank for a taste of local atmosphere and cuisine.

The town’s renowned 18-hole golf course welcomes visitors, as does the nearby leisure centre with its relaxing steam room and sauna—perfect after a day out in the Peaks.

For a day trip, head to the nearby town of Buxton to explore the fascinating Poole’s Cavern or enjoy a leisurely stroll through the picturesque Pavilion Gardens, followed by treats at the Vintage Tea Rooms.
