Just want to hang out with your friends for the weekend? Don’t want anything too full on? We hear you.
Get a group of lovely people together, and come along to enjoy catching up in the stunning Derbyshire and Peak District countryside. We understand that the most important thing to a friend’s retreat is just spending time with each other. That’s why all our accommodation is specifically designed around groups. If you want big communal indoor/outdoor spaces to hang out then speak to us.
We have a complete range of accommodation, so exact costs will be provided based on your requirements. But if you can’t find the right accommodation for you from our website, let us know what you’re looking for, and your wish list/must haves that you require from a property and we’ll go and find it for you! Leave all that stress and searching to us.
The beauty of this package is in it’s simplicity. You can add on as much or as little as you want. Let’s get your accommodation nailed down, and then you can relax and enjoy looking for fun things to do.
You might fancy adding on some activities. Or maybe some catering. Or a hot tub. Or some minibus transport. And the list goes on……………
At a pace that suits you, we’ll be on hand to offer advice and guidance on just about anything you can think of that’s related to your stay. Other property owners have a tendency to not really get involved in those bits, and that’s one of the reasons we’re so unique here at HDK. If you’re not sure what you might want to add on to your stay it’s no biggie – we’ve got bags of ideas and inspiration we’ll share with you.
Fancy just going for a walk around the Peak District? Cool, we’ll advise of some awesome walks in the area, and we can arrange some picnic hampers or grazing boxes to take with you if you like.
Got plans on having dinner at one of the fantastic local gourmet pubs in the area? We’re happy to give you recommendations, make a booking for you and even pre book your transport there and back.
It’s time to sit back and relax! Throw your wish list at us, and we’ll take the sting out of the whole thing.
All our packages are designed to give you an idea of what we do and how much it would cost. Everything we do is bespoke, so if you want to add/remove any element of a package that’s fine. But whatever you choose – with HDK you can lean on our experience and local knowledge to guarantee you one heck of a weekend!
We’ll listen to you, can suggest options, put it all together for you and deliver!
If you fancy bolting on some other bits, we can happily sort all that for you. For example, you might want to consider some of the following add-ons
I thought having to organise a stag do was going to be so stressful, but then I contacted Greg. After having a chat about what I wanted to do and the numbers I had, Greg understood. He put a package together and got me the cost. Even when I was adding extras or just testing the waters it was no issue. He just did his thing and came straight back to me. Nothing was a problem, always at the end of the phone to reassure and answer all my questions. Even there to assist over the weekend, when we got lost. Greg and his team made the stag do an absolute success, it would not have been so fluid without them. Would recommend in a heartbeat. A big thank you to you and your team, and thank you for the stories that will last a lifetime time. Lee Watts.

I got in touch with HDK to arrange a 20-person stag do having previously been on one that had been arranged through the same company. The weekend itself was fantastic, and the service, support, communication and attention to detail was absolutely outstanding. We hired the Matlock Manor House (Lea Hall) for two nights and were blown away by the uniqueness of the property. I've never seen anything like it and can barely believe we were allowed to host a stag do there. We wore appropriate attire, as per the attached photo. The catering company that HDK put us in touch with was great - reasonably priced and the quality was cut above any other stag do food I'd ever had. We were offered a wide variety of activities to add on, but rather than cramming in too much (we're in our 30s now!) we decided to opt for for a Saturday lie-in followed by an excellent fry up and an afternoon coach-based peak distract fancy dress bar crawl. Again this was organised perfectly with lots of flexibility to spend as much or as little time at each pub as we wanted, prioritising beer gardens in the unexpectedly good weather. The pubs were all happy to have us, despite half of us being dressed as Austrian Emperors and communicating only in German. The whole experience was really fantastic, and made so much less stressful than expected due to the hard work of Greg from HDK events. It would be madness to arrange a stag do without them!

The Manor House is stunning. We stayed as a group of “old men” on a stag party (a dozen 40+ year olds) and it was picture perfect. Great communal spaces, some stunning rooms, history and character oozing out of the ancient beams and floorboards, but with the comfort of really decent (4–poster) beds; plenty of hot water, WiFi, Bluetooth speaker etc. Our days entertainment consisted of a minibus-enabled pub crawl around some of the most spectacular scenery in the UK. This was all organised very last minute- and the HDK team were totally accommodating. Great venue; superb customer service. Iain Wood
