Peak Dale is a small village in Derbyshire, England. It is located between Dove Holes and Buxton, between 2 quarries.

The village used to house quarry workers and their families, but some of the original houses have now been demolished. The village has a small post office, a club, a playground, and even a primary school, which are all used frequently by residents of the village.

Great Rocks Dale lies immediately south of the village.
