Derbyshire

Spectacular views are guaranteed in this ruggedly beautiful part of England.

The picturesque Derbyshire Dales delight visitors with their steeply wooded slopes, glistening waterways and peaceful low-lying meadows. Rugged hillscapes encourage walkers along the Pennine Way, but you can enjoy the scenery just as well sitting back in a narrowboat with a slice of the famous Bakewell tart.
