Sleeps 30 · Relaxed countryside stags · Guests aged 30+ · Walks from the front door
A different kind of stag do
Countryside, not club crawl
Swap sticky dance floors for the Peak District. Hike the Roaches in the morning, try archery, axe throwing or laser clay pigeon shooting in the afternoon, then head back to your own Victorian hall for a big dinner, a game of pool and a pint by the fire.
Get the weekend started properly: a keg of beer from the local Wincle Beer Company can be waiting for you on arrival for just £100, and there are local brewery tours nearby if the stag fancies seeing where it’s made.
We’re in a quiet rural spot with neighbours just a field away, so the hall suits stag groups who want a laid-back countryside weekend rather than a big party. To keep it that way, we welcome groups where guests are aged 30 and over, and music stays inside once it gets dark.
Why stags choose Roaches Hall
Room for 30
13 bedrooms and 11 bath and shower rooms, so the whole crew stays under one roof.

Walk out of the front door and you’re on the Roaches ridge in about ten minutes.
Archery & axe throwing
Archery and laser clay pigeon shooting in the grounds, axe throwing just down the road.
Pool & games
A pool table, table football and a video game snug for settling scores.
Pubs nearby
The Rock Inn is about a 20-minute walk, with more country pubs a short drive away.
BBQ & hog roast
Fire up the BBQ in the garden or hire a chef so the stag never lifts a finger.
Keg on arrival
No corkage, and a Wincle Beer Company keg waiting on arrival for just £100.
Big screen
A 65-inch TV in the Grand Reception Room, so nobody misses the match.
