The Heart of England / Peak District / Staffordshire region
The ultimate in “year-round” appeal, the Peak District offers moorland countryside, picturesque villages, grand gardens and magnificent scenery. Britain’s first National Park, today the boundary of the Peak District National Park touches upon six counties and encloses 555 square miles of open moorland, flowing rivers, rolling valleys and wooded dales.
Boasting striking variations in scenery, the sombre gritstone horseshoe, known as the ‘Dark Peak’, encircles the pearly-grey ‘White Peak’ limestone of the Park’s southern and central areas. Such variety makes the Peak District a perfect destination for walkers and climbers. Enjoy anything from a gentle stroll through the ‘White Peak’ dales, to a full-scale hike across the ‘Dark Peak’s’ forbidding, windswept moors or, if so inclined, a challenging climb up a gritstone rock face.
There’s also an excellent network of ‘Trails’ running through the Park connecting many attractions and places of interest, created from disused railway lines. For a day of history and elegance there’s beautiful Chatsworth House, where Capability Brown designed and landscaped the spectacular gardens in the 1760s. A visit to the lovely spa town of Buxton, home to St Anne’s Well, a public drinking fountain and source of the famous mineral water, is also a must. The Peak District’s many hospitable and picturesque villages such as Ashbourne, Bakewell and Matlock Bath still practice a range of ancient customs and traditions, including the ‘Well Dressings’ festival in the summertime.
Below ground, a world of caverns and caves are waiting to be explored. Well-known to cavers and pot-holers, this subterranean side of the Peak District offers visitors a fascinating array of guided trips around the amazing and quite spectacular caverns and disused marble and stone mines – visit Peak Cavern or Blue John Cavern, or join a magical boat tour of Speedwell’s flooded passages.
Leek / Rudyard area
Set in a lovely countryside location the charming village of Rudyard boasts an interesting claim to fame. Alice Macdonald and her fiancé Lockwood Kipling met on the shores of the nearby lake and so decided to name their first-born son after the place. Rudyard Kipling, born in 1865 went on to become a world renowned poet, novelist and short story writer. As well as this fateful lake, the Staffordshire village boasts excellent picnic spots, boating, walking and fishing opportunities as well as the steam railway.
The thriving town of Leek is nearby and offers a variety of good pubs and restaurants as well as many antique shops. The beautiful Manifold Valley offers further walking opportunities with the 'Manifold Trail' – an excellent route through superb scenery for walkers and cyclists.

Guestbook for 1416
"Our party of nine, celebrating a family birthday. We were all very impressed by how spacious & well equipped the cottage was, though we weren't there long enough to make use of everything. It had real character, with lots of little extras. The dishwasher was a bonus suprise, as the website doesn't include it in the list of amenities." - Mrs Dixon, Grimsby, Lincolnshire, March 2009
"The house is ideal for a large group." - Mr Oughtibridge, Chester le Street, Durham, December 2008
"Absolutely 1st class in every respect. A lovely cottage in a very friendly village. We went to a Songs of Praise Sunday service at the local Methodist church a few minutes walk away - lovely, with a brass band playing! Fantastic scenery on your doorstep." - Mr Blakemore, Wallasey, Merseyside, August 2008
"Good Location; Excellent accommodation; plenty of bathrooms; copious supply of games, music & books." - Mr Batra, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, May 2008
