When you’re not hiking across Dovedale, walking the Limestone Way or taking on Shivering Mountain, slow down the pace with a visit to the historic Chatsworth House (8 miles) or Haddon Hall (7 miles). Or take to the water with a spot of boat fishing, sailing, kayaking or paddleboarding on Carsington Water, just 8 miles away before browsing picturesque Bakewell (8.5 miles), being sure to sample the town’s famous pudding.
