Market Street Chapel-En-Le-Frith High Peak Derbyshire SK23 0HH

Our small, family-run hotel is in the heart of Derbyshire’s High Peak and offers an excellent base for business or touring. We have an a la carte menu. Comfortable single, double and twin rooms and a welcoming pub environment serving a range of beers, wines and spirits.

Though it lies just outside the Peak District National Park, Chapel-En-Le-Frith is ideally placed for easy access to most of the western and central areas of the National Park and there is good walking to be had locally, with both Eccles Pike and Castle Naze offering excellent views of the area.

Frith is a local word for forest and Chapel-En-Le-Frith is the settlement which grew up around the church which was erected here by Foresters from the Royal Forest of the Peak in 1225.  The church was dedicated to St Thomas Becket, murdered in 1170.  

The Royal Oak overlooks the cobbled market square which lies just 100 metres south-west of the church.The market square contains a fine old market cross, the old town stocks, war memorial and a horse trough placed here to mark Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee.
