Hen Party Guest

We have had such a wonderful stay at Jo’s beautiful house in Tideswell for my 50th birthday celebrations. The house was perfect for our party of 10 girls. Spotless, so well equipped and super comfy beds in every room. The house was very warm and cosy especially with the log burner and the Aga. A real gem of a place and will definitely return.

Absolutely loved our stay for 3x30th birthdays! We brought lots of our own cooking equipment being used to poorly equipped houses and we didn't need it - never stayed anywhere so well equipped! Beautiful house, great for socialising in a large group, very clean and homely and in a gorgeous location - would definitely recommend and Joanne was a lovely host, thanks again!

We were a group of 8 friends. Jo was really helpful with advice and suggestions and responded promptly to any questions we had . The outside seating area worked really well for us as it offered great protection from the wind. The house is only a short walk from the centre of Tideswell and well placed for walks to the Monsal Trail and the various Dales. It is also just 1 mile from the village of Litton and the excellent Red Lion pub. We really enjoyed our stay at Jo’s house . The layout and facilities are ideal for a group of friends or for families to stay .

This house is amazing!! I came with a big group of friends for my 30th birthday and this place had everything! So comfy and cosy with plenty of communal spaces to hang out in. Was most impressed with fully stocked kitchen that had everything you could think of for hosting a large group. Paul and Alexina were very friendly and quick to respond to any queries we had. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Common Questions

Edale Hen Party Houses: Frequently Asked Questions

Practical answers about booking, neighbourhoods, budgets and group fit for hen party houses in Edale.

Is Edale good for a hen party?

Yes, for active groups who want hill walking and pub evenings at the Old Nags Head or Rambler Inn. Wrong choice if the bride wants spas, shopping and late-night clubs without driving to Manchester.

What is Edale known for?

Edale marks the traditional start of the Pennine Way long-distance path, with Kinder Scout plateau walks, the Nag's Head pub and a small station on the Hope Valley line from Sheffield.

Do we need a car in Edale?

The train helps some guests reach Edale station, but you still need cars for supermarkets, Castleton caves and late returns from Sheffield. Kinder walks start from the village but gear shops are minimal.

What walks start from Edale?

Kinder Scout via Jacob's Ladder, Mam Tor loop via Hollins Cross and Pennine Way stages north toward Bleaklow. Pack waterproofs because Edale weather turns quickly.

How far is Castleton from Edale?

Castleton with Peak Cavern and Winnats Pass is about fifteen minutes by car over Hollins Cross or via Hope. Combine a cave morning with an Edale pub lunch.

Are hen parties welcome near Edale?

On Hen Hideaways, yes. We only list houses that accept celebration groups. Edale works when you treat the garden as your main venue after a day on Kinder.

Edale or Hope Valley village?

Hope and Hathersage have more shops. Edale is walker's village quiet. Choose the house with the best hot tub and sleep layout, not the postcode alone.

What is the one Edale booking mistake?

Sending mixed-fitness groups up Kinder Scout in flip-flops. Proper boots and a weather check matter more here than almost anywhere in the Peak.
