East Midlands Tourism

Put a spring back in your step and go native in Northamptonshire.

If you love walking, especially when combined with a visit to a real country pub, this break will really appeal to you.

If you love historic houses and a good day's walk, then this break is for you.

Enjoy two days of invigorating walking, including the classic ridge walk between Losehill and Mam Tor near Castleton, with far-reaching views of the Hope and Edale valleys.

The hills and countryside surrounding the UNESCO Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site is the location for two fascinating walks, based around Belper and Cromford.

Calke Abbey - A time-capsule stately mansion and a former prime minister's home are the focus for this fascinating break, set in an undiscovered corner of Derbyshire.

This 46-mile (74 km) route starts from Castleton, then crosses the lovely White Peak landscape at the heart of the Peak District National Park, before following the River Dove and ending at Rocester in Staffordshire.

Spring is in the air and there's never been a better time of year to make the most of Leicestershire's glorious outdoors than with long walks across rolling countryside.

This weekend break is a fantastic opportunity to get away from it all.
