Taddington is a small village in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire, England, set in the limestone country of the White Peak within the Peak District. Perched close to Taddington Moor, it is surrounded by drystone walls, stone cottages and rolling moorland, making it a quiet base for walkers exploring nearby dales and routes across the national park.

Historically the locality was shaped by farming, lime burning and small-scale lead working, and today the local economy still leans on hill farming and tourism; a compact, community-minded village life is marked by a village hall, occasional local events and the steady rhythm of rural Peak District living. The combination of wide views, traditional architecture and easy access to walking country gives Taddington a distinctly Peak District character.
