Peak District Self Catering Accommodation for Large Groups
Planning a big family reunion, a milestone celebration, or a walking weekend with friends? Finding the right peak district accommodation for large groups shouldn't mean compromising on comfort or privacy. At Foxtwood Cottages, we offer a unique approach to group getaways. Instead of squeezing everyone into one massive, noisy house, our collection of seven beautiful self-catering cottages allows your group to holiday together while retaining your own private front door. Tucked away in a tranquil valley right on the border of the Staffordshire Peak District, our 30-acre estate provides the perfect backdrop for group retreats. Our individual cottages sleep between 2 and 5 guests, but they can easily be linked or booked together to accommodate larger parties.

Flexible Group Accommodation for Every Occasion


Finding accommodation that keeps everyone together without compromising on comfort can be challenging. At Foxtwood, our collection of charming self-catering cottages provides a practical alternative to hotels or large holiday houses.
Our cottages sleep between 2 and 5 guests individually, with selected cottages designed to be linked together, allowing larger groups to stay close while still enjoying their own private space. This makes Foxtwood ideal for:
- Family celebrations
- Birthday weekends
- Walking groups
- Cycling clubs
- Photography groups
- Yoga and wellness retreats
- Friends' getaways
- Small corporate retreats
Surrounded by woodland, canals, lakes and open countryside, everyone can relax at their own pace while enjoying shared outdoor spaces.
The Group Booking Process
Check our total capacity
Foxtwood is ideal for couples looking to escape busy daily life and enjoy peaceful surroundings together. Imagine cosy evenings beside the fire, countryside walks straight from your cottage door, and relaxing mornings overlooking the lake.
Coordinate your dates
Peak District group stays book out far in advance, especially for summer weekends and bank holidays. Pick 2-3 alternative dates with your party before checking live availability.
Contact our team directly
While single cottages can be booked online, multi-cottage group bookings are best handled directly. Get in touch via our contact form or phone so we can recommend the best cottage combinations for your group's specific mobility and bedroom needs.
Whether You're Celebrating, Exploring or Relaxing
Perfect for Family Gatherings
Large family holidays become much easier when everyone has their own space.
Instead of squeezing into one property, Foxtwood allows families to spread across multiple cottages while remaining only a few steps apart.
Grandparents can enjoy peace and quiet, younger children have safe outdoor space to play, and everyone can meet for shared meals or evenings around the BBQ Hut.
Whether you're celebrating a special anniversary, birthday or simply spending valuable time together, our cottages create a relaxed home-from-home atmosphere.
Celebrate Special Occasions Together
Whether it's a milestone birthday, engagement, anniversary or retirement celebration, Foxtwood provides a memorable setting for bringing everyone together.
Rather than booking multiple hotel rooms, your group can enjoy:
- Shared meals
- Outdoor games
- Evening BBQs
- Countryside walks
- Wildlife spotting
- Relaxing by the lake
The peaceful setting helps create celebrations that feel personal, private and memorable.
Ideal for Walking and Outdoor Groups
The Staffordshire Peak District is renowned for its outstanding walking routes, dramatic landscapes and peaceful countryside.
From Foxtwood, your group can easily explore:
- The Roaches
- Dovedale
- Manifold Valley
- Churnet Valley
- Peak District National Park
- Caldon Canal

After a day outdoors, everyone can return to comfortable accommodation and enjoy a relaxing evening together. The Peak District offers hundreds of miles of walking, cycling and outdoor activities, making it one of the UK's favourite destinations for group holidays.
Great for Cycling Groups
Foxtwood is also an excellent base for cycling holidays.
Quiet country lanes, challenging climbs and scenic canal paths make the surrounding area popular with cyclists of all abilities.
After your ride, store your bikes safely, enjoy a hot shower and relax beside the fire or spend the evening in the BBQ Hut sharing stories from the day's adventure.
A Peaceful Alternative to Busy Hotels
Many large groups prefer self-catering cottages because they offer far greater flexibility than traditional accommodation.
At Foxtwood you can:
- Come and go as you please
- Enjoy complete privacy
- Cook together
- Spend evenings socialising
- Bring your dog along
- Wake up surrounded by nature instead of busy hotel corridors
It's the perfect balance of independence and comfort.
