Derbyshire and the Peak District are perfect places to spend some time during the half term break – whether you’re looking for impressive views, great walking routes or some of the county’s more unusual attractions.
These are some of the best spots across the area to explore this half term – is there anywhere else that we need to add to our list?

12. Linacre Reservoirs
Located on the edge of Chesterfield, there are three reservoirs to walk round at Linacre. There is a gentle five mile route that takes you around all three, and through the village of Old Brampton, before arriving back at the car park. Photo: RKH
