Renaissance Relaxation

This short break may be short in time, but it’s long in relaxation and deep in experience. This is your opportunity to forget the mobile phone, the laptop and those never-ending meetings: be pampered at one of the exquisite spa hotels, picnic in peace, sometimes on a private lawn, dining on finest Peak District produce.
 
Leave your character hotel, perhaps during the perfect quiet of a Derbyshire dawn, to visit a 16th century house for a specially arranged early entry – away from the crowds and in time to enjoy the vistas which would have been enjoyed so long ago by the 16th and 17th century aristocracy.
 
Hardwick HallHardwick HallThe Peak District & Derbyshire has some of the greatest houses in the land and this is the short break which allows you inside that hidden world of the Renaissance. Everything about that period was grand – and this short break will make you feel just that – re-energised in mind and in body.
