Derbyshire and the Peak District are perfect to visit over the autumn months - with amazing spots to explore in each corner of the county.
These places need to feature at the top of your list if you’re planning a trip over the coming weeks - is there anywhere else that you think should feature in this list?
9. Grindleford
Grindleford is perfect for anyone wanting to combine stunning scenery and fascinating history. Walkers can follow Padley Gorge up onto the moors, before taking in the scenery at Surprise View and looping back round to Grindleford Station - where a visit to the Grindleford Station Cafe is a must. If you’re looking for somewhere to enjoy a drink, The Maynard should feature at the top of your list. The walk can also be combined with a visit to Padley Chapel, a Grade I listed building located at the site where the ‘Padley Martyrs’ - two Catholic priests who were executed for treason - were discovered in 1588.
10. Chatsworth Estate
Chatsworth House is one of the Peak District’s most recognisable landmarks - and there is plenty of natural beauty to be found across the sprawling estate.
11. Haddon Hall
Haddon Hall is one landmark that should feature on your list of places to visit - especially if you find yourself in the Bakewell area.
12. Ashford-in-the-Water
Ashford-in-the-Water is popular for its medieval bridge and Thornbridge Hall, the 12th century stately home that lies on the outskirts of the village.
