Inspector comments
"Potentially a great place for newt-watchers."
Overview
Rivendale Lodge Retreat is set in a former quarry, and there are lots of places to visit and things to do nearby, including the adjacent Tissington Trail. Natural landscaping includes a wide range of tree varieties as well as indigenous and cultivated pants; there's a large colony of great crested newts in addition to many bird species. The well-spaced lodges are beautifully equipped, with superb, comfortable interiors and all have the benefit of generous decked areas; some also have hot tubs. Further facilities include a well-stocked, licensed shop, a stylish bistro and a bar that benefits from great countryside views. Accommodation includes 72 lodges and two treehouses.

About the area
The natural features of this central English county range from the modest heights of the Peak District National Park, where Kinder Scout stands at 2,088 ft (636 m), to the depths of its remarkable underground caverns, floodlit to reveal exquisite Blue John stone. Walkers and cyclists will enjoy the High Peak Trail which extends from the Derwent Valley to the limestone plateau near Buxton, and for many, the spectacular scenery is what draws them to the area.
