Dalehead Bunkhouse

National Trust Dalehead Bunkhouse – Edale

National Trust – Dalehead Bunkhouse
Dalehead Bunkhouse is located in a very remote spot in Edale Valley. There are no public roads and only one building nearby so it is a lovely secluded and isolated place to stay. A stream runs past the back and sheep graze all around in the adjacent fields. The views are stunning all around and show the Dark Peak at its very best.

The dazzling and diverse scenery of the Peak District and Derbyshire makes it a paradise for walking, family cycling and mountain biking as well as adventure sports such as caving, rock climbing, hang gliding and paragliding.
