VISIT PEAK DISTRICT & DERBYSHIRE: The Ultimate Peak District and Derbyshire Bucket List - 101 Great Things To Do.
I've checked the long-range weather forecast and it looks like it's going to rain every day for the next fortnight so I thought I might as well comment on this list for the next few days.
1...I love the Peak District and I regularly go there, and it's easy for me to get there. I live in Doncaster, which isn't too far away and I've got a travel pass for free travel on the buses and local trains. I can reach about half of the national park from Sheffield, including many of the tourist honeypot areas.
2...I've visited Chatsworth House quite a few times, a few years ago I purchased a season ticket. I regularly go walking in the parkland; it's beautiful and isn't too challenging.
3...I've been up on Kinder Scout a few times, usually not alone...although I might have done it unaccompanied once. It's a difficult climb and I doubt I'll be doing it again.
4...I've been to Cresswell Crags a few times and it's a pleasant location which can easily be incorporated into a longer walk. I've never paid to have a guided tour of the caves though.
5...Obviously when visiting the villages I've seen the decorated wells, but I've never actually been to one of the well-dressing ceremonies though.
6...I've been to Bakewell many times, not just to visit, but also to use the town as a base for walking. Masny years ago I bought a Bakewell Pudding and during my lifetime I've eaten thousands of Bakewell tarts. I've never asked a woman if she's a pudding or a tart though.
