There is something very special about Eyam during Wakes Week.

These beautiful well dressings are created by villagers using natural materials such as petals, seeds, leaves and moss, continuing a Derbyshire tradition that has been part of village life for generations.

This one carries the words:

“Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.”

A simple message, surrounded by a truly beautiful natural work of art.

What Our Guests Say…

There’s nothing we love more than hearing how our guests feel after their stay, it’s why we do what we do. Here are just a few words that mean the world to us:

“Beautiful, peaceful surroundings, the perfect place to relax and recharge.”
“Spotlessly clean, cosy, and so well equipped, everything has been thought of.”
“We left feeling calm, rested, and already planning our return.”

Every detail at Top Riley is designed so you can unwind, slow down, and simply breathe, surrounded by nature, comfort, and peace.

Come and experience it for yourself.

Summer at Top Riley feels peaceful in a way that is hard to put into words.

Long evenings. Walks from the door. Hares in the meadow. Owls calling in the distance. Time outside, time together, and time to properly switch off.

Looking back through some of our summer moments, it’s the words from our guests that say it best.

“Peaceful and quiet.”
“Surrounded by nature.”
“We really switched off.”
“Peace, privacy and beautiful views.”
“We left feeling refreshed and rested.”

That is exactly what we hope a stay at Top Riley gives you.

A little space. A slower pace. Somewhere to breathe.

Find Your Quiet at Top Riley

Sometimes the smallest visitors bring the biggest smiles.

There’s something so special about sharing this place with the little wild things, the quiet rustle in the leaves, a gentle pause at dusk, and that lovely reminder to slow down and notice the beauty in small moments.

Here at Top Riley, nature is never far away. From birdsong in the morning to wildlife at the meadow edge, it’s often the simple things that stay with you most.

Take time to rest, recharge, and reconnect with nature’s calm.

Our seasonal offers change throughout the year, but the feeling remains the same, peace, space, and a few little moments of magic.

It’s a lovely reminder that time is precious, and the moments we remember most are often the simplest ones, a walk with nowhere to be, fresh air filling your lungs, a view that makes you stop for a moment longer than planned.

Here in the Peak District, travel doesn’t have to be far or fast. Sometimes it’s just about choosing to go, choosing to pause, and giving yourself permission to enjoy where you are.

No excuses. Just moments that stay with you.

We have some rather lovely news.

Top Riley has been named Holiday Cottage Accommodation of the Year.

And we are genuinely incredibly proud.

When we came to Top Riley, we wanted to create somewhere peaceful. Somewhere you could arrive, close the door on everyday life for a while and simply slow down.

Peaceful cottages surrounded by fields.
Walks from the door.
Birdsong in the mornings.
Quiet evenings.
A place to properly switch off.

What makes this award particularly special is that the judges crowned us winners based on the experience we’ve created here and guest feedback.

So this doesn’t really feel like an award that belongs to us alone.

It belongs in part to every guest who has stayed, returned, recommended us, sent a kind message, or taken the time to leave a review.

On a clear night in the Peak District National Park, the sky becomes part of the experience.

Far from city lights, stars feel brighter, constellations clearer, and the quiet deeper.
It’s a simple pleasure, step outside, look up, and let the world slow down for a while.

A lot is said about being in the present, and yet it’s something many of us rarely allow ourselves to do.

Here at Top Riley, it seems to happen naturally.
The views don’t rush you.
The lanes invite you to wander, not hurry.
The quiet gives you permission to simply sit, breathe, and notice where you are.

Being present isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing less, and letting the moment be enough. Whether that’s a slow morning with a cup of tea, birdsong outside the window, or an evening where time feels beautifully unimportant.

Sometimes, the greatest luxury is just being right here.
