✨A new home for HF Holidays is coming in Buxton
We are delighted to share some great news. HF Holidays is purchasing a new country house in the heart of the Peak District, securing a permanent home for the future.
“The acquisition of Lee Wood Hotel gives HF Holidays a permanent base of our own at the heart of the Peak District - a destination that has long been a firm favourite with our members and guests. It is fitting that contracts exchanged in the same month the Peak District celebrates 75 years since it became the UK’s first National Park." Chris Simmonds, CEO, HF Holidays
Lee Wood Hotel’s location in the historic town of Buxton provides great transport links and a huge choice of walking routes for our walking and activity holidays. It will join our HF Country House collection in early 2027 after a light refresh that stays true to the building’s character and nature-led approach.
As part of this move, our time at Peveril of the Peak, our country house near Dovedale, will come to an end when the lease finishes in spring 2027. Holidays will operate as planned until the end of 2026, and we’ll continue to support the brilliant team with alternative opportunities across the HF Holidays estate.
For now, Lee Wood Hotel will operate as normal, and we’ll be working closely with the team later this year as we shape the future together.
This is a really exciting step for HF Holidays, and we can’t wait to welcome guests to our new Peak District base.
