Apparently we’ve had a management reshuffle at Hollydale… 🦘

He’s now in charge.

Main responsibilities include greeting guests, supervising the grounds and conducting regular snack inspections.

We’re not entirely sure who promoted him.

A view that stops you in your tracks…

This is Winnats Pass, one of the Peak District’s most dramatic and instantly recognisable landscapes.

Known as the Windy Gates, the road winds between towering limestone cliffs, revealing a different view around every bend. Whether you drive through it or explore the surrounding walking routes, it is a place that truly captures the wild beauty of the Peaks.

Days out like this are part of what makes a stay at Hollydale so special. Explore unforgettable countryside by day, then return to your luxury cottage, private hot tub and the peace of rural Staffordshire.

A walk worth every step…

Jacob’s Ladder is one of the Peak District’s most famous walking routes, climbing from the beautiful Edale Valley towards Kinder Scout.

Once an old packhorse route used to carry goods across the moors, its stone path is now loved by walkers for its history, peaceful surroundings and breathtaking views.

It may test the legs, but scenery like this makes every step worthwhile.

And after a day of exploring? Return to the comfort of Hollydale, soak in the hot tub and rest those tired feet.

Just one of the unforgettable Peak District adventures waiting during your stay with us.

🚂 DID YOU KNOW? – THE CHURNET VALLEY RAILWAY

Just a few miles from Hollydale Barns lies one of Staffordshire’s loveliest heritage railways. Steam trains wind through the beautiful Churnet Valley along a route whose history dates all the way back to 1849.

The railway has transported everything from Victorian passengers to quarry stone and wartime workers — and part of its route was even built along the bed of an old canal! During WWII the line served a munitions factory at Froghall, while nearby Alton Towers was being used to train Royal Artillery officers.

Today, thanks largely to decades of restoration work by volunteers, you can once again travel through the valley behind magnificent steam and heritage locomotives.

They also run special event days throughout the year, which can include things like dining trains, afternoon tea or cream tea experiences, seasonal events, family days, themed trains and Christmas/Santa services. They also host enthusiast events with visiting locomotives and heritage diesel or steam galas.

NOVEMBER/DECEMBER GUESTS

If your staying around Christmas time the MUST do thing is the Polar Express!! It’s amazing!
For 2026, Churnet Valley Railway is running the official THE POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride from 7 November to 23 December

Definitely one for the holiday itinerary — and you don’t need to be a train enthusiast to enjoy it! 🚂🌳
