The 5 most booked spa breaks in the Peak District and Derbyshire revealed
The Peak District is the UK’s oldest National Park as well as being one of the most visited. Spanning around 555 square miles, it makes for an idyllic weekend away, especially for those who love the outdoors.
The limestone valleys and dramatic ridges make it a haven for outdoor wellbeing. However, thanks to its variety of spa experiences on offer in and around the county, it also offers superb pampering for all occasions indoors as well.
Whether you’re looking for a luxury hotel for a spa weekend break, or for a venue near you for a day to celebrate a hen party, these spas offer a wide variety of packages.
1. Mottram Hall
Mottram Hall has been revealed as the most booked spa in the area. The findings revealed it took 41.5% of all bookings made in the Peak District this year.
