Hayfield is a thriving village that sits quietly at the foot of Kinder Scout – the Peak District's only mountain – within the world famous Peak District National Park.
With fabulous restaurants, many welcoming village pubs, specialist shops and outstanding scenery, Hayfield is a Peak District gem. There's also live music, great beer, property to die for, and, as they say, those hills are made for walking! Where else can you enjoy the rural idyll and be within 40 minutes of Manchester city centre?
For a small village Hayfield has a host of annual activities including the gruelling Fell Races, the annual Wells Dressing and the May Queen Festival.
And the village abounds with fascinating history. A former tiny staging post on the pack-horse route across the Pennines from Cheshire to Yorkshire, Hayfield grew into a bustling hive of activity with the arrival of the cotton industry in the 19th century. The picturesque centre of the village remains and boasts a fine church and a number of old cottages as well as being packed with amenities.
One kilometre north of the village is the hamlet of Little Hayfield where the original mill has been sympathetically converted into apartments, and the hamlet pub is called The Lantern Pike after the sharply pointed adjacent hill over which the Fell Races are run (among others!).
