Situated between the picturesque villages of Ilam and Thorpe and nestled within the Staffordshire and Derbyshire Peaks, The Izaak Walton Hotel is an AA 3 Star converted 17th Century Country House Hotel offering comfort, history and views of outstanding natural beauty.
Named after the famous author of “The Compleat Angler”, The Izaak Walton Hotel is privately owned and located in an idyllic setting with modern facilities, offering a unique combination of warm hospitality, tranquillity and tradition, whilst maintaining high standards of service.
The Izaak Walton Hotel has 38 very well-appointed, spacious bedrooms, many of which have views of the beautiful Dovedale Valley or the hotel’s own gardens.
The bedrooms are divided into Classic, Twin, Family, King and Superior standards. Three of the bedrooms have four-poster beds which are perfect for a special occasion, and a further two are located in the original and quaint 17th Century guesthouse which is steeped in history and still retains the oak beams and window seats.

All rooms also have tea & coffee making facilities with coffee bags from The Little Coffee Bag company, complimentary bottled still water, Ringtons Biscuits, luxury refillable toiletries, Digital TV and an alarm/radio.
