Holidays in Derbyshire
A holiday destination popular with outdoorsy folk, Derbyshire promises breathtaking walks, charming villages, and a selection of fascinating historic houses to explore.
Things to do in Derbyshire
Home to one of the most spectacular National Parks in the UK, Derbyshire is a true haven for walkers and hikers. The Peak District’s many winding trails offer a wonderfully varied selection of walks, from day-long hikes that will have your calves singing to peaceful strolls through dappled national forests and around shimmering reservoirs. For the historians amongst you, Derbyshire’s many grand stately homes and historic buildings offer a fascinating day out. Chatsworth House and Hardwick Hall offer impressive architecture in beautiful settings, while Calke Abbey invites you to nose around its ‘un-stately’ stately home, with wild gardens and unrestored rooms painting a wonderfully curious picture. For something truly memorable, head to the Heights of Abraham in Matlock Bath, an astonishing cable car that carries you up the Derwent Valley for unbeatable views from the top of Masson Hill.
Places to eat in Derbyshire
Whether your days are filled with breathtaking walks or historic outings, you’ll need some good grub to keep you going. Luckily, Derbyshire is full to the brim with hearty pubs, chic restaurants, and cosy cafés. You’ll also find a whole host of homely farm shops, ensuring your picnics are chock with local goodies, from freshly baked bread to creamy cheeses. The largest town in the Peak District, Bakewell is perhaps most well known for its namesake pud. However, the bustling streets are lined with a mouthwatering selection of eateries as well as regular farmers’ markets and a thirst-quenching brewery. Buxton is another favourite with hungry travellers as the lovely spa town boasts a gorgeous setting for your meal, whether you want a warm welcome from a family-run restaurant or cheeky spritz in a swish wine bar down town.
