Throughout the Peak District are picturesque villages where you’ll find scenic rows of cottages, cosy pubs and winding streets. There’s so many to visit that it can be hard to see them all - not to mention the challenge of dealing with the logistics of navigating this wild and rugged national park.
Luckily there are several bus routes which serve the area and stop off at these incredible locations. Under a new bus scheme launched by the government, single bus fares on specific routes are capped at £2 until March 31, making these destinations even more accessible.
Several bus routes in the Peak District are participating in the scheme, one of which is the number 65, operated by Stagecoach. The Guardian recently listed it among the most scenic bus routes in the country, describing it as a “well-kept secret”.
