The best places right now
Cheaper options sit mostly in the smaller end of the market. Cottages for two to four people around Wirksworth, Grindleford Bridge, Wortley and Upper Hulme usually cost noticeably less than the Peak District usual, and several of them still include a log burner or allow dogs. Larger houses in Bakewell and Peak Forest cost more a night but work out reasonable per person once a group fills the beds. Lake views appear on some of the lower-priced cottages, so a view does not always mean a high price. Check the dates you want, as the cheapest nights found are well below the usual level.

With a private hot tub and a 10.0 score for comfort, this 4-star holiday home is a stone cottage for 2 people, set outside the town centre and old town.
A shepherd's hut for 2 with a private hot tub, this country stay sits in Upper Hulme, outside the centre of Bakewell, with the Peak District reachable on foot.
A 3-bedroom house sleeping up to 9 guests, Sweet Knoll Farm is a 4-star holiday home in the village of Peak Forest, with the Peak District reachable on foot.
Sleeping up to 9 people across 4 bedrooms, this 4-star holiday home sits in Buxton rather than in Bakewell itself, so it is some way from Bakewell town centre.
The lodge stands in Stanton in Peak, with a park view from the double room and a garden and terrace outside. Haddon Hall is 1.2 miles away, a 23 minute walk.
Hot tubs are standard here, not an extra. Every place in the Peak District list has one, so the choices that matter are the town you base yourself in, how many beds you need and whether you want a log burner or a garden as well. Most are in stone-built cottages and converted barns around the limestone dales and the gritstone edges, with a handful by lakes and reservoirs.
Prices are fairly high compared with many other parts of the UK, though the range is wide. Smaller places for two or four people start at a modest level, while groups of ten or more pay a good deal more per night. Guest ratings are strong, around 9.2 out of 10. Dogs are accepted at about seven in ten places, and nearly two thirds have a log burner or fireplace. Saunas are rarer, at around 7 per cent, and the largest place sleeps 32.
Where are they?
Buxton has the most hot tub cottages, followed by Matlock and Bakewell. Buxton and Bakewell sit close to the regional usual price, while Matlock is dearer. Holmfirth, Glossop, Bamford, Stanton in Peak and Birch Vale are clearly cheaper, and Wirksworth is the lowest of the main towns. Leek, Oldham and Chapel en le Frith are the dearest, which reflects the bigger houses there rather than a single small cottage. If budget matters most, start with the smaller towns on the edges of the park and compare them with Buxton.

Features
Since every place has a hot tub, the other features are what separate them. A garden comes with about 84 per cent, and a log burner or fireplace with 64 per cent. Places with a log burner are usually dearer than those without, which is useful to know for a winter weekend. High chairs are listed at about six in ten, so families are well served. A barbecue is found at roughly a third and costs a little less than the usual night. Fishing is rare and sits with the dearest places. Saunas and swimming pools are uncommon, so filter for them early if you want one.

By number of guests
Places for three or four people are the best value per person among the smaller sizes, and they are also cheaper a night than places for two. Sleeping two costs more per head because the price of the tub and the cottage is shared between fewer people. Groups of seven to nine pay the lowest price per person of any size, with four bedrooms usually included. Prices rise sharply from ten guests upwards, and the largest houses for fifteen or more cost several times the usual night. For a group of twelve to fourteen, the cost per head falls back a little.
November is the cheapest month shown, and prices climb through the winter into spring. December and January cost a little more than November, while February, March and April rise step by step, with April the dearest. Availability is tight in November and December, with only about a third of places free, so late booking leaves less choice then. From January there is more room, with around six in ten places still free in the months from February to April. If you are flexible, early November gives the best balance of price and choice.
