Watch as we take a tour of Peak District village's stunning Japanese inspired gardens

A pretty village in the Peak District is home to magnificent Japanese inspired gardens.

Cascades Gardens at Clatterway in Bonsall is a haven for visitors who go there to meditate in tranquil surroundings.

Owner Alan Clements has spent 30 years developing the three and a half-acre site which was formerly wasteland.

A meeting with the Dalai Lama and lessons in Zen meditation in Japan inspired Alan to create the peaceful haven.

Derbyshire Times photographer Brian Eyre was treated to a private tour of the gardens which are open to visitors five days a week.
