For a last-minute break, the cheapest nights are mostly for two to four guests, in towns and villages such as Holmfirth, Disley, Longnor and Waterfall. A hot tub is still possible at the low end, and Longnor and Foolow both show it. Dog-friendly places turn up in the same range. Larger groups can also find a night that is cheap for the size of the place, as one ten-guest property in Matlock shows. Check the dates carefully, since a low usual price is not the same as a low price on the night you want.

Hot tubs are close to standard in the Peak District: about three in four of these places have one, and most take dogs too. That suits couples and families who want a short break with walking on the doorstep and somewhere warm to come back to. Groups are well catered for as well, since the typical place sleeps seven or so and the largest takes 30.
Prices vary a lot from one village to the next. Some of the cheapest nights are for two people in places such as Holmfirth, Disley and Matlock, while Buxton, Bakewell and Leek sit well above the rest. Half of the places have a log burner, which matters more in the colder months. Guest ratings are high, around 9 out of 10, so the choice comes down to budget, group size and location rather than quality.
Buxton has the most places and sits dearer than the region as a whole, though every one of its places has a hot tub. Oldham and Holmfirth are cheaper, and Glossop is cheaper again. Matlock, Bakewell and Chapel en le Frith cost noticeably more, and Leek and Sheffield are the dearest of the main bases. Foolow is the cheapest base here, but only four places are listed. If you want a hot tub and a lower budget, Oldham and Stanton in Peak are worth a look.
| Town | Places | Usual night | With hot tub |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buxton | 14 | £368 | 100% |
| Oldham | 12 | £297 | 92% |
| Matlock | 8 | £581 | 88% |
| Bakewell | 7 | £614 | 57% |
| Sheffield | 4 | £836 | 75% |
| Foolow | 4 | £130 | 50% |
| Stanton in Peak | 4 | £310 | 100% |
| Holmfirth | 4 | £266 | 100% |
| Chapel en le Frith | 4 | £732 | 75% |
| Leek | 4 | £1,048 | 100% |
| Glossop | 3 | £252 | 67% |
| Disley | 2 | £630 | 50% |
Hot tubs and gardens each appear in about three quarters of the places, and hot tub stays are usually cheaper than the region as a whole. A high chair is offered by just over half, which helps if you are bringing a toddler. Half have a log burner or fireplace, and those stays cost more than average. Fishing and BBQs are less common. Saunas are rare, at around one place in sixteen, and tend to be among the dearer stays. Swimming pools are rarer still, but the few places with one are cheaper than average.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garden | 87 | 77% | £467 |
| Hot tub | 86 | 76% | £385 |
| High chair | 58 | 51% | £514 |
| Log burner / fireplace | 55 | 49% | £564 |
| Fishing | 28 | 25% | £538 |
| BBQ | 21 | 19% | £386 |
| Sauna | 7 | 6% | £636 |
| Swimming pool | 5 | 4% | £353 |
Places for two are the cheapest in total but not per person. Mid-sized places for three to nine guests are the best value per head, and the cost per person falls slightly as the group grows. Once you reach ten guests, the cost per person rises again, and it is highest for groups of twelve to fourteen. The very largest places, for 20 or more, bring the per-person cost back down. If your group is ten or eleven, compare it with a place for seven to nine plus a second booking.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 2 | 21 | 1 | £155 | £78 |
| Sleeps 3-4 | 28 | 2 | £248 | £62 |
| Sleeps 5-6 | 20 | 3 | £408 | £68 |

November is the cheapest of the months listed, and prices climb gradually through to April, which is the dearest. December is dearer than January, so the festive period carries a small premium. Availability changes with the month. Fewer places are free in November and December, while from January onwards well over half still have dates open. For a last-minute stay, January and March leave you the widest choice at a moderate price.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £330 | 57% |
| December 2026 | £371 | 48% |
| January 2027 | £375 | 71% |
| February 2027 | £392 | 76% |
| March 2027 | £392 | 79% |
| April 2027 | £426 | 78% |
Not always. The cheapest nights are for two to four guests, and they sit well below the usual price for the region. Larger places stay expensive even at short notice. Check a few dates, as weekday nights are often easier to fill than weekends.
From January to April more than half of the places still have dates free, and March has the most. November and December have fewer free places. November is the cheapest month listed.
Foolow, Glossop and Holmfirth are among the cheaper bases. Oldham and Stanton in Peak also sit below the regional price. Leek, Sheffield, Bakewell and Matlock are dearer.
Half of the places have a log burner or fireplace. They are more common in the dearer stays. If you are travelling in winter, check the listing before you book.
Based on the prices we check every day, a night in one of these lodges or cabins in the Peak District usually costs £341, and a week in winter around £2,404 (£2,471 the rest of the year). Prices depend mostly on the dates and the size of the property.
