Short Breaks in Bakewell
Derbyshire
Situated in the East Midlands of England, Derbyshire is famously associated with the stunning natural beauty of the Peak District National Park, while to the north of the county, there is an overlap with the mountains and hills of the Pennines. The Pennine Way, a footpath very popular with walkers also starts from here and presents a rewarding challenge for anyone enjoying a Walking Short Break. A favourite among walkers are our traditional stone cottages in Derbyshire, typically containing an open fire or woodburner.
Tourist attractions include the magnificent stately home of Chatsworth House, the historic city of Derby and the picturesque spa towns of Matlock Bath and Buxton. The poignant history of the 'plague village' of Eyam is always fascinating and the awesome expanse of the Ladybower Reservoir is another popular scene.
