Description
We venture into the heart of the Peak District, calling at Matlock where the weekly market will be underway. This attractive town is famed for its Victorian spa and the spinning industry launched by Sir Richard Arkwright in the 18th century. We then move on to Haddon Hall, with included entry and a guided tour of the Hall and Garden. This magnificent stately home is one of the finest examples of a Medieval and Tudor manor house and is a popular choice as a film and TV location, most notably 'Jane Eyre,' 'Pride & Prejudice,' 'The Princess Bride,' 'Mary Queen of Scots,' and 'The Other Boleyn Girl.' And it is easy to see why – inside there is a medieval kitchen an Elizabethan long gallery, and a beautiful terraced garden, plus a restaurant, and a gift shop.
