Local attractions

People have lived in the Peaks for a very long time indeed, as you'll see for yourself at Arbor Low (10 minutes' drive), a prehistoric henge and Neolithic barrow on the White Peak plateau. After inspecting these ancient ruins, fast-forward a few dozen centuries and zip off to Haddon Hall (30 minutes) for a jaunt around an Elizabethan house and gardens. Next up, trips into town are in order. The town in question is very much up to you, and there's a fair bit of choice around here – options include sauntering around Buxton (15 minutes) and its Georgian terraces, heading to a showground event or sampling the puddings in Bakewell (15 minutes) and visiting Ashbourne (20 minutes), a market town full of varied independent shops. Kids (and adults, for that matter) who are fans of fluffy animals can take a trip to Mayfield Alpacas Animal Park (35 minutes), while those who prefer more urban explores can be taken to Sheffield (45 minutes), where bowling, indoor climbing or a visit to the National Videogame Museum should do the trick.
