Solace Lodge: Our New Luxury Couples Retreat in Derbyshire
At Steam Mill Lodges, we’ve always believed that taking time away should feel like stepping into a different rhythm of life — one that soothes the mind, nurtures the body, and rekindles connections. That’s why we’re so proud to introduce Solace Lodge, our latest retreat designed exclusively for couples. Tucked away in the heart of the Derbyshire countryside, Solace is more than just a place to stay; it’s a sanctuary where tranquillity, indulgence, and wellbeing come together in harmony.
Why We Created Solace Lodge
When we first dreamt of Solace, we wanted to create a space that truly embodied its name — somewhere that would offer comfort, rest, and peace. So many of us live fast-paced lives, constantly connected, constantly moving. We knew there was a growing need for places where couples could pause, breathe, and simply be together without distraction.
Solace Lodge is our answer to that need. From its calming interiors to the private spa facilities just outside your door, every detail has been thought through with relaxation in mind. Whether it’s sinking into the hot tub after a countryside walk or watching the sun set over the fields from the sauna, we wanted Solace to feel like a place where stress simply melts away.
A Personal Haven for Wellbeing
We believe that wellbeing comes in many forms. Sometimes it’s the quiet moments of reflection, sometimes it’s laughter over a glass of wine, and sometimes it’s the warm embrace of water or heat in a private spa. At Solace, we’ve brought all of these elements together.
Your stay includes your very own outdoor spa area, complete with:
- A private hot tub where you can relax under the stars.
- A rejuvenating sauna that helps restore both body and mind.
- A refreshing plunge bath for those who love a little invigoration.
We’ve found that couples love this balance of calm and energy. A morning dip in the plunge bath, a peaceful afternoon in the sauna, then a soak in the hot tub with a glass of something sparkling — it’s the perfect rhythm of wellness. And because these facilities are yours alone, there’s no need to share the space or rush your time. It’s all about you, together, at your own pace.
Escaping to the Countryside
One of the greatest joys of Solace Lodge is its setting. We’re fortunate to call the Derbyshire countryside our home, and we wanted to make sure our guests could experience the best of it. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted by sweeping fields, fresh country air, and a sense of space that’s hard to find in everyday life.
For us, the countryside is as much a part of the retreat as the lodge itself. Waking up to birdsong, walking hand in hand down winding lanes, or simply gazing out at the rolling hills with a morning coffee — these are the moments that stay with you. Derbyshire has a timeless beauty that works its quiet magic, and at Solace, you’re right in the middle of it all.
A Rural Retreat with a Touch of Luxury
We know that escaping to the countryside doesn’t mean you should miss out on life’s little luxuries. Inside Solace Lodge, you’ll find all the comforts you’d expect from a high-end retreat — smart TVs for cosy evenings, a pool table on your private deck for light-hearted competition, and stylish interiors that feel both welcoming and indulgent.
We’ve designed Solace with couples in mind, so everything feels intimate, considered, and tailored to relaxation. It’s not just about staying somewhere pretty — it’s about creating memories together. Maybe that’s sharing a film in the evening, challenging each other to a game of pool, or simply curling up with a book while the countryside stretches out beyond your window.
Exploring Derbyshire from Your Doorstep
While we know many of our guests are perfectly happy to spend their time unwinding at the lodge, Derbyshire is brimming with places to explore if the mood takes you.
We often hear from our guests that combining days of gentle exploration with evenings back at the lodge creates the perfect balance. After all, there’s something wonderful about coming home from a countryside adventure to your own private spa and peaceful retreat.
Adults Only: A Space Just for You
When we say Solace is designed for couples, we mean it. This is an adults-only retreat, ensuring that the atmosphere remains calm, quiet, and tailored to a grown-up escape. We wanted to create a space where you can truly focus on yourselves, without distractions.
Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, marking a special occasion, or simply in need of some uninterrupted time together, Solace gives you the setting to do just that. It’s your time, your space, and your chance to unwind in peace.
