Hotels in Derbyshire
Our hotels in Derbyshire are well situated to enable exploration of the county of Derbyshire, and, as with all Signpost hotels they provide the exceptional standards of luxury expected from a premier hotel.
Derbyshire, home of the UK’s first National Park, the Peak District, has been popular with home grown holidaymakers for more than 200 years. It is convenient for Sheffield and Manchester and right in the middle of the country, well served by road and rail connections.
The Peak District in Derbyshire forms the beginning of the Pennine Chain and its reservoirs and hills are second to none in beauty. It is excellent walking, riding and bicycling country and the Buxton Festival, increasingly a pan-arts occasion, has achieved international recognition. The 17th-century Palladian Chatsworth, seat of the Duke of Devonshire, is one of the most visited houses and gardens in the country.
Make your visit to Derbyshire more enjoyable by staying in one of our selected hotels in the Peak District many of which are pet friendly hotels.
The owners of the Riverside hotel in Derbyshire, the Thornton family (whose excellent chocolates tempt in each bedroom) have refurbished bedrooms and public areas to make this gem even more attractive. It nestles by the river Wye in a quiet cul-de-sac with the beauties of the Peak District National Park on all sides and several classic stately homes: Chatsworth, Haddon Hall and Hardwick Hall near at hand. The restaurant has AA and an excellent local reputation for seasonally available game and fish from the neighbouring river. There is a separate meeting/dining room for that important private party and the Terrace Room buttery is open all day for light snacks if preferred. An excellent hotels in Derbyshire for touring the Peak District or for relaxing in 'home-from-home' comfort.
