Derbyshire is in the centre of England and is a county of beauty. Known for stunning, rolling hills, Derbyshire has a number of reservoirs including the Derwent Dams, along with the beautiful Carsington Water and River Derwent. So, if you like spending time in or near the water, Derbyshire may be somewhere you'll love to visit. If you're a literature and film buff, be sure to pay a visit to Chatsworth House, the setting for Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice, travel a little further to the Peak District, or visit the National Trust's Calke Abbey. The area of Derbyshire really does have plenty to do, including lots of family fun in wildlife parks, theme parks and adventure playgrounds.
