5 Day Select Holiday

This fascinating holiday is based in the cathedral city of Sheffield, known as The Outdoor City, where nature meets culture. It is home to the famous Crucible Theatre, which hosts the World Snooker Championships. This vibrant city is also the UK’s greenest metropolis with over sixty percent of its space dedicated to parks. It boasts the award-winning Winter Garden, the largest urban glasshouse in Europe, home to thousands of species of plants. There is also an array of art galleries, the neo-classical City Hall, theatres and Grade II listed botanic gardens. Our sightseeing takes in Chatsworth House, a grand stately home standing in beautiful parkland amid the picturesque Peak District National Park. The mansion is home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, and we include a guided tour so you can really experience this astonishing landmark and learn the stories about the people and artefacts that have shaped its history. We visit quaint Eyam, forever known as the plague village thanks to the seventeenth century Black Death when locals contained an outbreak of plague by isolating themselves. Other Peak District delights take in Buxton, Bakewell and Matlock. Finally, we take a step back in time with a ride on a vintage tram at Crich Tramway Village.

Your Excursions

Eyam Village & Guided tour of Chatsworth House
Eyam is dedicated to the memory of those who died from the Black Death around 1666 - see the historic church, stocks, Eyam Hall and Rose Cottage. We continue to Chatsworth House, home to the Cavendish family since the sixteenth century and the jewel in the crown of the Peak District. Here our guided tour takes in rooms such as the glorious Painted Hall, Imperial State Rooms and the striking Sculpture Gallery, all filled with lavish furnishings and notable art collections. Outside, there are over a hundred acres of Capability Brown designed, formal gardens with water features, rock gardens, sensory trails and a tricky maze. 
Buxton & Bakewell 
The Peak District gem of Buxton is a spa town with landmarks such as Solomon’s Temple, the Grade I listed Crescent, the Devonshire Dome and Poole’s Cavern – a two-millionyear-old limestone cave. We continue to the market town of Bakewell, home to grand period houses and the eponymous tart. 
Matlock & Crich Tramway Village
First up is a visit to Matlock, dubbed ‘Little Switzerland’ by the poet, Lord Byron, thanks to its wonderful views and steep, wooded hillside. Here you’ll find streets full of independent shops, cafes and pubs as well as Hall Leys Park with its boating lake and riverside walks. From here, we head to Crich Tramway Village for a journey through time aboard a vintage tram amid the evocative setting of a nostalgic street from a bygone era. This captivating tram ride also takes you out into open countryside to enjoy lovely views. Afterwards, stretch your legs with a stroll around the scenic sculpture trail, explore the interesting exhibitions and visit the attraction’s unique Red Lion Pub, tearoom and shops.
