Location
Dannah Farm Country House offers beautiful and luxurious B&B accommodation in the Derbyshire Dales, on the southern fringes of the Peak District National Park. Located on a ridge dividing the Ecclesbourne from the Derwent Valley, recently designated a World Heritage Site, the farm is a few hundred yards from Shottle village, part of the Chatsworth estate, and originally a royal deer park. Shottle is midway between the lovely old market town of Wirksworth, steeped in history, and Belper - Beau Repair, beautiful retreat. We are ideally placed to enjoy the many and varied attractions of the area, and are within half an hours drive of Dovedale, Alton Towers, Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, the High Peak Trail, Crich Tramway Village, etc, etc - the list is endless!!. We are the perfect location for holidays, romantic breaks and business guests looking for something a little different.
Dannah Farm Country House
Dannah is a lovely 18th century Georgian farmhouse with its own tranquil atmosphere and character. The farm has been sympathetically converted to offer luxurious and stylish accommodation surrounded by extensive gardens and beautiful countryside. Dannah has been awarded 5 Yellow Stars Highly Commended from the AA, placing it amongst the top 10% of accomodation providers in the country!! Dannah Farm Country House is the only accommodation in Derbyshire to have 5 Yellow Stars from the AA, and a little Gem award from the RAC. In 2008 it won silver at the East Midlands Tourism Awards, the highest award in its category in Derbyshire.
