10 great places to visit in the Peak District, Derbyshire

This is our new favourite place. Just outside Ashford in the Water, it's a quirky stately home with amazing grounds, a lovely café, the best sausage rolls, animals, something for the kids. We did the house tour and it was the best one I've ever been on. A real behind the scenes visit.
