Hoe Grange Holidays

For cycling sessions straight from the farm, head off on the 11.5-mile High Peak Trail following the former Cromford Railway, part of the National Pennine Bridleway. You can stop at the restored Middleton Top Engine House, Hoe Grange Quarry butterfly reserve and the pretty Derbyshire Wildlife Trust along the way. If days out a short drive away are what you're after, the Nine Ladies bronze-age stone circle and the country park and caverns of The Heights of Abraham – plus its cable car ride – are all reachable in 20 minutes. The much-famed Chatsworth House meanwhile is a 30-minute journey away. For walks amid the lovely Peak landscape, Dovedale Stepping Stones on the Dove river with views of the limestone Thorpe Cloud are 20 minutes away. And if the family’s miniest members deserve a treat after stretching little legs? Gulliver's Kingdom theme park for under 13s is a 20-minute drive, while rides for the bigger kids are over in Alton Towers in just under 35.
