Our collection of country houses and cottages offers some of the most flexible corporate retreat venues in Derbyshire and the wider Midlands.

 

Whether you’re planning a leadership retreat, a strategy workshop, or a multi-day team offsite, our properties provide adaptable spaces that shift easily from focused sessions to relaxed breakouts. Outside, you’ll find the kind of surroundings that spark creativity — rolling hills, fresh air, and endless countryside walks. Recognised among unique business meeting venues in the UK, The Peak and Dale Events team take care of the details — Wi-Fi, catering, bedrooms, and breakout areas — so your team can leave distractions behind and concentrate on what matters most: working better together.

Why Us? What makes us different?

We know what makes a successful offsite. You need quiet corners for focus, generous tables to map out ideas, and warm, welcoming spaces to reconnect after the day’s work. That’s why our Derbyshire retreat venues are designed with teams in mind. Whether you’re running a strategy session, leadership training, or a full corporate retreat, our houses flex to your agenda. Step outside, and the rolling hills of the Derbyshire Dales provide fresh air, space to think, and a natural reset for your team.
