Awards

We are honoured to have been named AA B&B of the Year for England 2026, a national accolade celebrating outstanding comfort, warm hospitality and the unique countryside charm that defines Dannah Farm. It is one of the AA’s highest awards and reflects the care, character and attention to detail that shape every stay with us.

We are also proud holders of the AA 5 Star Gold Award for Guest Accommodation — the highest possible rating for our type of property — recognising exceptional quality across every aspect of the guest experience. Along with this we have also been awarded the AA Breakfast Award: the egg cup. The award indicates a very special breakfast, with an emphasis on freshly prepared local ingredients.

Over the years, Dannah has also been celebrated with the AA Friendliest B&B Award, recognising the warm welcome and personal touches that guests consistently mention as part of what makes Dannah feel so special.

In addition, we were delighted to receive the RAC Little Gem Award, acknowledging properties that offer exceptional charm, character and hospitality — a lovely reflection of the atmosphere guests enjoy here at the farm.

Closer to home, we have twice won the Amber Valley “Best Kept” Award for the most decorative hotel or guest house in the area, celebrating the gardens, orchard and peaceful outdoor spaces that guests love to explore.

Together, these awards reflect our commitment to offering a stay that feels thoughtful, relaxing and truly memorable — in the heart of the Derbyshire countryside.
