Blore Hall, Peak District, England

The Peak District is England's great outdoors. It straddles the border between the northern highland parts of Britain and the lowland counties.

It has something for everyone, landscape, market towns and villages, rugged heather clad moorland and rolling dales.

It is divided into two areas: the Dark Peak, a wild and barren landscape with high gritstone uplands and heather moorland; and the White Peak with its gentle, rolling limestone countryside and drystone walls. Nowhere else will you find such a wide variety of landscapes and a wealth of things to do and see in such a compact and accessible destination.
