Edale

Edale is a small but mighty village in the heart of the Hope Valley, best known as the starting point of the Pennine Way, Britain’s first and most famous long-distance trail. Surrounded by dramatic moorland and steep ridges, it’s a paradise for walkers—with access to Kinder Scout, Jacob’s Ladder, and the Edale Skyline.

The village itself is small, with two pubs, a café, and a local shop, all set among stone cottages and green fields. Edale also has a railway station on the Manchester–Sheffield line, making it one of the most scenic and accessible spots in the Peak District for car-free travellers.

Whether guests are tackling a full-day hike or just soaking up the views, Edale offers a perfect blend of wild beauty and quiet charm.
