Catering and Private Chefs

All bookings require a non-refundable deposit to secure your date with our catering or activity suppliers. The final balance is due at least 14 days prior to your event date. For short-notice bookings (less than 14 days in advance) the full amount is immediately payable at time of booking. We reserve the right to withhold catering or activity services if the balance is not cleared before the event.
Most My Peak Event catering and activities require a minimum group size of 8 to 10 guests, though certain specialised activities carry a higher threshold.· Private Chef Catering: Full-service private dining generally starts at a minimum of 8 to 10 guests (or an equivalent minimum spend).· Activities & Experiences: Most of our local Peak District activities require between 8 and 10 participants, while specific supplier-led activities (such as certain outdoor adventures) require a minimum of 12 guests to cover equipment and staffing.· Smaller Group Options: If your party size falls below the required threshold, you can usually still run the experience or catering session by paying the equivalent flat rate for the baseline guest count.
No, you do not need to have your accommodation booked before contacting My Peak Event, though having fixed dates or a target area helps us build the most accurate itinerary. If you are still searching for a place to stay, we recommend exploring properties with our trusted partner, Peak Venues, or we can guide you towards local towns and villages across the Peak District and Derbyshire that align well with your group size and preferred activities. While we can discuss ideas and outline custom package pricing early on, specific chef schedules, activity timings, and supplier travel are officially locked in once your venue address is confirmed.
