The village with a 'hidden gem' that is just 90 minutes from Manchester

Scattered across the Peak District are dozens of villages, each one offering something a bit different. The village of Baslow has its own hidden gem among the usual range of cosy cafes and country pubs - a Michelin-approved restaurant.

Lying on the banks of the River Derwent, Baslow is charming village with a mixture of old and new cottages. Around an hour and twenty minute drive from Greater Manchester, it's nestled beneath a gritstone edge sharing the same name and surrounded by the dramatic scenery of the Dark Peak

At the heart of it is a beautiful village green, Goose Green, which is covered in a blanket of daffodils each spring. The village itself is divided into five ‘Ends’: Far, Nether, Bridge, West and Over Ends.
