Woodroffe Arms

The Woodroffe Arms is a beautifully refurbished stone-built village pub located on Castleton Road in Hope, right at the centre of the Peak District.

With two cosy trading areas, open fires, a conservatory, outdoor seating, a large car park and five high‑quality letting rooms plus a cottage, it attracts a steady flow of locals, walkers and tourists throughout the year. Trading currently sits at 70% wet, 20% rooms and 10% food, creating a strong opportunity for an experienced operator to grow both the food and accommodation sides of the business. The letting rooms have recently been refurbished and have the potential to reach high year‑round occupancy, while the pub’s location near Mam Tor, Castleton and Edale provides a natural pull for destination diners and visitors seeking a great post‑walk pub experience. This is an opportunity for a skilled operator with a background in food-led or destination pubs. The ideal partner will be able to raise the food quality, deliver consistent hospitality, and establish the pub as a key community hub through weekly activity, events and strong local engagement. With its standout setting, refurbished facilities and strong footfall, the Woodroffe Arms offers significant potential for someone ready to take a well-loved Peak District inn to the next stage of its growth.
