Foolow is a picturesque village clustered around a village green with an ancient cross and duckpond. It was formerly a lead-mining village and many of the houses are from the 17th century. Foolow is surrounded by the most glorious Peak District countryside of gently rolling hills, ancient dry-stone walls and tumbledown barns. The Bull’s Head pub is situated in the centre of the village and serves honest, locally-sourced food and real ales.
Tudor Cottage is a stone built cottage situated a few metres from the Bull’s Head pub and opposite the village green. Centrally located in a beautiful part of the Peak District National Park, this is an ideal location for exploring on foot with lovely walks from the doorstep, riding a bike through the many quiet lanes and footpaths of the area, or visiting the show caves situated near the cottage. This cottage has been lovingly renovated to maintain the character.

Tudor Cottage, Foolow - Village Green
Foolow is a small but delightful village in the White Peak area of the Peak District. It offers quiet, country lanes, pretty limestone cottages, a village green with a medieval cross … even a picture-perfect duck pond, complete with white Aylesbury ducks.
The sweet little church of St Hugh is well worth a visit. It was once a smithy, but was consecrated as a church in the late 19th Century. Foolow also has an architecturally interesting Wesleyan chapel dating from 1836.
The Bull’s Head pub is situated in the centre of the village and serves honest, locally-sourced food and real ales. The Barrel Inn in the nearby village of Bretton is also within easy walking distance, however, and is reputedly the highest pub in Derbyshire, as evidenced by the spectacular views from its front lawns.
Foolow is surrounded by the most glorious Peak District countryside of gently rolling hills, ancient dry-stone walls and tumbledown barns. This is a haven for walkers, with a great many easy routes to follow on mostly level, well-made trails, all offering beautiful views.
Foolow was once a thriving centre for lead mining. Rich veins of lead were discovered along the edges to the north of the village and led to the opening of a number of mines in the early 18th Century, which in turn brought miners and their families into the area. The Watergrove Mine, located to the south of the village, was in use until 1853.
