Activities
Welcome to the Peak District!
Here you’ll be able to choose from numerous fantastic walks with breathtaking views, perfect for those looking for pet-friendly accommodation. Try archery and clay shooting, go treasure hunting or quad biking, and invite an activity provider to come to you.
On-site Activities
Roaches Hall comes with a wide range of activities to enjoy on-site. If you’re here for a celebration or a corporate retreat, invite a caterer to prepare an elegant multi-course dinner for your party (ie . Petitjeans Catering, Thornbirds Hospitality, or Food by Anthony). If you’d like to capture quirky and emotion-filled photos of your special celebration contact Becky Ryan Photography.
Many guests have recommended to us a company called My Event Concierge who help to organise various caterers or activities such as target sports like clay pigeon shooting, archery, and axe throwing, or other options like bringing on spa treatment therapist, chocolate and cocktail making, live drawing, dance and yoga classes and much more. For more information, contact My Event Concierge.
No matter the type of your stay opt-in for a BBQ on a sunny day and enjoy the relaxing views of sprawling greenery and local wildlife including various birds, rabbits, cows, sheep, horses and more.
Off-site Activities
Peak District became UK’s first national park and for a good reason. The first thing we would recommend after settling into our exclusive use venue for 30 is taking a short, 15-minute walk to the Roaches Rocks. From here, you’ll have a spectacular view of the Peak District including the Tittesworth Reservoir Activity Centre which is just a 12-minute ride from the house and offers a number of water activities including kayaking, canoeing, paddle-boarding, sailing, windsurfing etc.
A 10-minute drive away from Roaches Hall is also a fantastic Activity Centre called Madrenalin. Here you and your group can also do Archery, Axe Throwing, Harness Spehering, Sky Bow, and more. HDK Events activity centre also offers similar activities plus motorsports.
If you’re taking the Leek to Buxton road, keep your eyes out for the Winking Man on the left. Take a walk around Lud’s Church or Kinver Edge which will make you feel you’re in one of the Lord of the Rings movies or take a 3-mile circular walking path on Mam Tor, a mountain tracing back to the Bronze Age.
