ROBIN HOOD LIVED HERE! Say no more. Stunning scenery, wonderful walks and a view of THE MAJOR OAK. Nope Robin didn't live in it's trunk because all of the Merrie Men would not have fit, but a magnificent specimen of what English Oak can produce. Major work is ongoing to preserve one of England's eldest trees.

"Ring a ring of rosies - pocket full of posies........ " This is where the origin of the Great Plague was believed to have been started. Wonder around the pretty streets, call in at the church, read the plaques on the cottage walls telling the original story. Savor the beautiful village's quiet calmness and or take a meal at the Village Inn. Spend a lovely day in the village of Eyam.

The gunpowder plot allegedly was "plotted" here.. I was born a gnat's throw from this house and passed it every day. Years later vising this thatched cottage , I felt silly that I'd lived within such close proximity of such an amazing park of British History, and chosen to ignore.......... Visit yourselves please.

Situated on the Sheffield / Derbyshire border Renishaw Park is a gem of a golf course situated in the magnificent mature parkland around Renishaw Hall. The course was built in 1911 by Sir George Sitwell and retains many of the original features and specimen trees from its early days. Over the years the course has been extended and brought into line with the modern game without losing any of its original charm. Renishaw is a mixture of interesting Par 3 holes, tight Par 4’s and longer but more forgiving Par 5’s to give any standard of golfer a challenging round. All of this centres around immaculate greens which are widely regarded as being of the best in the county. Visitors packages availab
