MIDDLE PEAK QUARRY SPA HOTEL

Winksworth | Derbyshire

Middle Peak Hotel is a concept project, which explores the appropriation and re-purposing of a post-industrial landscape.

  • A hotel and spa is situated at the top edge of this disused quarry – mined for limestone until the mid-1980s. The ambition of the project is to activate the larger expanse of the site, repairing the landscape together with the planting of indigenous flora and attracting local fauna.

    This new ‘greater landscape’ provides an extensive network of paths, giving the opportunity for hiking and fitness, as well as contemplation and reflection. The building’s strategic position not only affords spectacular views, it also absorbs the power of this aggressive, yet dramatic and surprisingly beautiful landscape.
