Discover the Peak District with a Derbyshire Holiday Letting

The English county of Derbyshire, nestled in the middle of the country, is home to some of Britain's most breathtaking scenery. The county hosts three quarters of the Peak District National Park, the first National Park to be established in Britain. Here you can enjoy world-class hiking routes, cycling opportunities, and sightseeing. A stay in a Derbyshire holiday letting also provides easy access to some of England's most charming towns and villages, such as the famous spa town of Buxton.

How to get to Derbyshire?

Getting to Derbyshire

Derbyshire is easily accessed from either Manchester International Airport or East Midlands Airport. If you opt for the convenience of a letting car, getting to your holiday home from either airport is an easy and pleasant drive via A roads. The county's main city of Derby, and smaller towns, are well served by rail links from London, Manchester and other destinations.

What are the top sights in Derbyshire?

Enjoying the Countryside

It is impossible to visit the county without taking full advantage of the countryside around your Derbyshire holiday letting . The Peak District National Park is one of England’s natural wonders, and is perfect for walking, cycling and sporting activities. If you like walking, then lace up your hiking boots and enjoy the 500 sq. km of accessible land. There are many marked trails to follow, ranging from 3 to 15 km, and including high moorland hikes and gentle riverside walks. For spectacular views, take a hike up to Mam Tor, meaning Mother Hill, which is considered one of the best spots for photography in the UK.

If you enjoy getting around by bike, then the newly restored Monsal Trail should be high up on your agenda. The trail runs between the historic towns of Buxton and Bakewell, traversing old railway lines and passing outstanding scenery. There are plenty of places in the area to hire bikes, so that bringing your own isn't necessary. Of course, if you prefer to have your own, you'll have ample space to store them in your Derbyshire holiday letting .

What are the best places to discover the arts and culture of Derbyshire?

An Adventure for the Whole Family

Derbyshire offers plenty to keep the whole family entertained. The Heights of Abraham, near to Matlock, is home to an unforgettable cable car ride with sweeping views of the Derbyshire countryside. You might even spot your Derbyshire holiday home.

If your kids love animals, the area has a number of farms where they can make some furry friends. The Matlock Farm Park is one of the best. The National Forest Adventure Farm is also a great place to meet and feed the animals, and if you're not so lucky with the weather, they have a huge indoor play area.
