If I’m going to promote what’s going on around Derbyshire, then of course I’m going to promote the places featured on the website! August is a great month to head out and enjoy independent shops, cafes, delis, farm shops…sounds like a perfect day out to me! Click here to visit the search page.
Summer at Chatsworth
Up until the 2nd September.
I love Chatsworth and what could be better than lots of summer activities to take part in around the Estate.

Bluebells MegaMaze
Brand new to Bluebells is the MegaMaze, a truly wonderful activity for the whole family. I can’t wait to borrow my niece to go play and eat ice cream.

Crich Tramway Museum
Saturday 14th & Sunday 15th August 2010
Like lots of others, I’m sure Crich Tramway Museum brings back lots of great childhood memories. A visit on any day throughout Summer is perfect, but if you’re looking for an event then they have a 1940s Weekend at Crich Tramway Village Crich, Derbyshire.

Picnics and Walks in Derbyshire
We are blessed to live in a county of stunning landscape…why not pack a picnic and head off with some friends. Some of my favourites are Black Rock, Shining Cliff Woods (links to a 6 mile walk), Carsington Water, Ladybower Reservoir and Castleton.
Hopefully there’s some inspiration here for you to head off into Derbyshire this month. Oh, and to see the absolutely gorgeous ducks in the photo above pop along to Caudwells Mill in Rowsley.
Some great ideas here, not too happy about you listing some of my favourite walking places though ;o)
Here’s another website that has some great walks to try http://www.peakwalker.net/
I love that duck!
me too!
