Youlgreave sits in the White Peak of the Peak District, inside the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire. The village lies along the River Bradford and nestles beneath limestone hills and dry-stone walls, with dramatic short dales such as Lathkill Dale close by; its stone-built houses, an ancient parish church and narrow lanes give it a distinctly traditional Peak District character.
Historically the area prospered from lead mining and lime-burning, but today the local economy is dominated by farming and tourism, with walkers, cavers and birdwatchers drawn to the surrounding dales. Community life is strong, with village pubs, tea rooms and seasonal events such as well dressings and a village show keeping a lively social scene.
