Life at Hazel Tree Lodge: A Peaceful Escape on the Edge of the Peak District

Hazel Tree Lodge Sheep Derbyshire Holiday Retreat

Book your Derbyshire holiday home

If you’re searching for a peaceful countryside escape in Derbyshire, Hazel Tree Lodge offers something truly special. Nestled on the edge of the Peak District, our private lodge is more than just a place to stay — it’s a chance to slow down, reconnect, and experience a gentler pace of life.

A Different Kind of Stay in Derbyshire

Life at Hazel Tree Lodge is simple, calm, and memorable. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the difference. There’s no rush — just open views across fields, fresh air, and space to breathe.

Set within 30 acres of countryside in Tibshelf, the lodge blends comfort with nature. Whether you’re visiting for a romantic break, a special occasion, or just time away from everyday life, everything here is designed to help you switch off.

Mornings on the Land

Mornings at Hazel Tree Lodge begin slowly.

Step outside with a coffee and you’ll likely spot our small flock of sheep grazing peacefully, often joined by our miniature Shetlands and horses — a reminder that you’re firmly in the countryside.

It’s these little moments that guests remember most. The stillness. The views. The sense of space.

Evenings Under the Stars

As the day winds down, life at the lodge becomes even more special.

Slip into your private hot tub, surrounded by open countryside, and watch the sky change as the sun sets over the Derbyshire fields. With minimal light pollution, clear nights often bring incredible star views — something you don’t get in the city.

This is what a Peak District hot tub retreat should feel like: romantic, private, and completely yours.

Designed for Comfort and Calm

Inside, Hazel Tree Lodge has been carefully designed to feel warm, uncluttered, and effortlessly comfortable.

  • Spacious open-plan living areas
  • A 55” OLED TV for film nights in with Plex
  • A fully equipped kitchen for easy self-catering
  • Soft lighting to create a relaxed atmosphere

The lodge is kept to a spotlessly clean standard, something our guests consistently highlight in their reviews.

Sleep Comes Easy Here

A good night’s sleep is essential to any countryside escape — and it’s something we take seriously.

  • Reylon wool mattresses for natural comfort
  • Soft cotton bedding throughout
  • A queen-size sleigh bed in the master bedroom
  • Flexible twin or super king setup in the second bedroom

Many guests tell us it’s the best sleep they’ve had in years.

Perfectly Located for Exploring Derbyshire

While Hazel Tree Lodge feels tucked away, you’re perfectly placed to explore some of Derbyshire’s most iconic destinations.

  • Chatsworth House – just 25 minutes away
  • Hardwick Hall – only 5 minutes from the lodge
  • Bolsover Castle, Matlock, Bakewell, and Haddon Hall all within easy reach
  • Direct access to the Five Pits Trail for walking and cycling

This makes Hazel Tree Lodge an ideal base for exploring the Peak District National Park, while still enjoying your own private retreat.

Outdoor Living, the Way It Should Be

One of the highlights of staying at Hazel Tree Lodge is the outdoor space.

  • Private hot tub with uninterrupted views
  • Ambient lighting for relaxed evenings
  • Comfortable seating area
  • No shared spaces — just peace and privacy

It’s a space designed for doing very little — and enjoying every minute of it.

Why Guests Keep Coming Back

It’s waking up to the fields.
It’s watching sheep graze while you sip your morning coffee.
It’s evenings under the stars with the countryside around you.

It’s a place where you can truly switch off.
