Believe it or not, we don’t actually work for the Peak District Tourism board, but here’s 5 reasons we think you should head to the Peak District on holiday (and stay in Longnor - whether at our place or one of the other beautiful places).
1️⃣ Location: Longnor sits between Buxton, Bakewell, Leek, and Ashbourne, placing you within a short drive of attractions like Chatsworth House, Dovedale, and The Roaches, saving time on travel.
2️⃣ Village Charm: Unlike busy tourist hubs, Longnor retains its traditional character, with cobbled streets, historic buildings, and friendly local pubs and cafés offering a truly English countryside experience.
3️⃣ Walking Routes: From gentle riverside strolls along the Dove to national favourite climbs like Chrome Hill, many scenic hikes start right on your doorstep, with cycling routes also easily accessible.
4️⃣ Heritage: The village’s 18th-century market square and St. Bartholomew’s Church showcase its history, while nearby stately homes and ancient landmarks deepen the cultural experience.
5️⃣ Peaceful Atmosphere: Longnor offers tranquillity after a day of exploring, with a strong sense of community, making it ideal for just about everyone!
