Straddling the river Wye, this ancient town is the largest in the Peak Park. Next door is Chatsworth House the seat of the Dukes of Devonshire and the third most visited stately home in the UK. Also close by is Haddon Hall the second seat of the Dukes of Rutland and the UK's oldest fortified Tudor Manor house dating from the 12th century.
