Product Description

The Peak District National Park was the very first of Britain's National Parks covering an area of 540 square miles. The Dark Peak covering north Derbyshire and small parts of Cheshire and South Yorkshire is an area of windswept moorland, steep river valleys and impressive crags. Further south is the White Peak; a limestone-based undulating green landscape criss-crossed by miles of dry stone walls and gently flowing rivers whilst to the west can be found the beautiful valleys and rivers of the Dales as well as the Staffordshire Moorlands. In contrast the rest of Derbyshire offers the visitor an intriguing mix of villages and towns packed with cultural and industrial heritage and should certainly not be missed.

By Lendrick VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
A book of 2 halves, the first 137 pages is an OK guide book giving a bit of description and background on the towns and sights of the Peak district. Perhaps some of those listed are hidden gems, but if so they remain hidden among the 'usual suspects'. There seems to be little that you couldn't pick up from freely available sources. Dotted on these pages are small adverts which point you to the back of the book.

The bulk of rest of is taken up with paid for content, adverts for Hotels, Restaurants, Tea Rooms etc.

Now, if I had picked this up for free, or a nominal cost, in a Tourist Office, I might think that was OK. But for something retailing a something close to a full price guide I think it is pretty poor.

Not recommended.
