Peak Edge Hotel

What Peak Edge Hotel does

Peak Edge Hotel is an independently owned 4-star boutique hotel located on the edge of Derbyshire's Peak District National Park, twelve miles from junction 29 of the M1 in Chesterfield, United Kingdom. The property operates 27 luxury bedrooms across three tiers (Superior Rooms, Feature Rooms, and Luxury Suites) alongside the historic Red Lion Restaurant (established 1788), which holds 2 AA Rosettes and a Michelin Guide listing. The hotel is operated as part of the Casa Hotels Group under owner Steve Perez, who also controls the sister Casa Hotel (100 rooms) in Chesterfield and the 360-acre Walton Lodge Farm Estate, the latter providing Red Tractor-certified produce for the restaurant.

The business generates revenue across four primary streams: accommodation bookings (via direct website, TravelClick, and gift voucher channels), food and beverage (Red Lion Restaurant, afternoon tea, bar, and Christmas events), weddings and private events across two venues (Oak Room up to 200 guests, Walton Suite up to 100 guests), and corporate meetings and conferences. Ancillary experiences include helicopter arrivals, self-guided eBike tours with Peak eBikes, golf packages with Stanedge Golf Club, and Chatsworth Estate experience bundles. Pricing is dynamic and quote-based by room, season, and package, with a direct booking incentive via best available rate guarantee and flexible cancellation.

The property employs approximately 25 staff at Peak Edge specifically (around 200 combined across the Casa Hotels Group), has held GDPR-compliant operations under the legal entity Peak Edge Hotel Limited, and carries multiple sustainability credentials including Green Tourism, Green Meetings, and Red Tractor certifications. Recent strategic activity has focused on experiential product extension (helicopter arrivals, Bramble Barn self-catering), accessibility investment (a Hidden Platform Lift), and an award track spanning hotel, restaurant, wedding, and ESG categories.
