Escape to the tranquil beauty of the Peak District, where you can unwind, recharge, and embrace a slower pace of life, the perfect weekend break. Whether you’re seeking peaceful walks, stunning views, or cosy moments by the fire, this weekend itinerary is designed for those who need a well-earned rest.
Friday: Arrive & Unwind
Step into your cosy cottage retreat and make yourself at home. Get ready for the perfect weekend break. Enjoy a freshly brewed coffee using local cafetière beans from your welcome pack as you take in the breathtaking views. With groceries delivered and unpacked, there’s nothing to do but relax.
Stretch your legs with a gentle stroll down the lane to The Miners Arms, a warm and welcoming local pub where you can enjoy a hearty meal. On your way back, keep an eye out for deer grazing in the fields or badgers ambling up the lane. If there’s a chill in the air, light the log fire, snuggle up under a blanket, and lose yourself in a good book with a glass of something special.
Saturday: Explore & Embrace Nature
Wake up to birds singing and the gentle sounds of the countryside. After a leisurely breakfast, choose one of the many scenic walks right from your doorstep. Feel the crisp air, soak up the peaceful surroundings, and let nature work its magic.
There’s no rush, cafés and country pubs along the way offer the perfect excuse to pause for coffee and cake or a delicious lunch. As evening falls, sit outside under a blanket of stars, listening to the sounds of the countryside and embracing the simple joy of being fully present.
🏛️ Sunday: A Day at Chatsworth
With no need to check out until Monday, Sunday can be spent at a gentle, unhurried pace. Head to the majestic Chatsworth Estate, where you can choose between a peaceful walk through the grand grounds, spotting deer, cows, and sheep or stepping inside the historic house to admire its stunning art and architecture.
Round off your weekend with a delicious meal at the Chatsworth Farm Shop restaurant, then pick up a few local treats to take home. As you return to your cottage, you’ll feel rested, refreshed and truly reconnected with nature.
A weekend of pure relaxation, beautiful surroundings, and gentle exploration, exactly what you deserve. 🌿✨
