The best pubs in the Peak District.

Gritstone edges, limestone dales and the moorland of Kinder Scout, within reach of half of England. The walks and pubs we rate most in Britain's first national park.

Hope Valley pubs are used to walkers and their boots, and a few are used to vans too. These are the ones we've been to, with the walks you can start from the door.

Questions people ask

What is the best walk in the Peak District?

For a big day, Kinder Scout from Edale via Grindsbrook Clough is the classic. For a short walk with the best view per step, the Great Ridge from Mam Tor is hard to beat.

Which village is best to base a Peak District weekend?

Edale for Kinder and the start of the Pennine Way, Castleton for Mam Tor and the caves, Hathersage for Stanage Edge. They're all in the Hope Valley, so you can do one walk from each.

Can I stay overnight in a campervan at Peak District pubs?

Some pubs will let you if you eat or drink there and ask first. The overnight pubs on this page are ones we've stayed at. Always check before you arrive.
