Derbyshire
UK £8.99
Visit the
Peak District & Derbyshire with confidence using
this guide, which is the ultimate companion for
locals and visitors alike.
The Hidden Places of the Peak District &
Derbyshire is a beautifully illustrated guide
and explores the Peak District & Derbyshire in a
relaxed narrative style. It contains a wealth of
interesting information on the history, the
countryside, the towns and villages and
established visitor attractions, but it also
focuses on promoting the lesser known places of
interest and places to stay, eat and drink.
The Peak District National Park was the very
first of Britain's National Parks covering an
area of 540 square miles. The Dark Peak covering
north Derbyshire and small parts of Cheshire and
South Yorkshire is an area of windswept moorland,
steep river valleys and impressive crags.
Further south is the White Peak; a
limestone-based undulating green landscape
criss-crossed by miles of dry stone walls and
gently flowing rivers whilst to the west can be
found the beautiful valleys and rivers of the
Dales as well as the Staffordshire Moorlands. In
contrast the rest of Derbyshire offers the
visitor an intriguing mix of villages and towns
packed with cultural and industrial heritage and
should certainly not be missed.
