Derbyshire Holiday Cottages
Derbyshire holiday cottages lie in one of the most outstanding areas of natural beauty in all of the UK. From the picturesque grandeur of the Peak District in the North to the more tranquil, rolling wheat fields in the South, Derbyshire is a region of timeless splendour. There are countless opportunities for escape and relaxation in this charming county. See below for Derbyshire cottages.
In addition to the afore mentioned Peak District (see Peak District category), Derbyshire offers the visitor a rich array of idyllic settings. The Dove and Trent Rivers meander their way through a colourful, plush landscape that includes the villages of Marston on Dove,
Ashbourne and Swarkestone.
The Seven Sisters and Monk's Bridge date back to the 13th century and are magnificent reminders of this region's past. Derbyshire also has a notable industrial past that played a key role in the Industrial Revolution. Little remains of this heritage with its landscape bearing considerably fewer scars compared to other neighbouring counties.
The towns of Repton and Melbourne are amongst the UK's most ancient towns and consist of Anglo-Saxon architecture and 14th century castles. Bretby Woods on the outskirts of Repton is popular amongst walkers and offers attractive wooded scenery. In addition, the town of
Bakewell is one of the jewels of Derbyshire, notable for its gabled cottages and country house. Book Derbyshire holiday weekend break in Derbyshire.
