There’s so much to do in the Peak District, you’d have to be careful not to get overwhelmed with choice when visiting the area.

This handy little list details just five examples of places you can visit and activities you can get up to.

  1. Hill walking keeps you active, but also allows bonding and conversation with the rest of the family – the older and younger members can take part in hill walking, too.
  1. If you want to make a splash during your stay in the Peak District, there are plenty of water sports activities you can get involved with, whether that’s kayaking, canoeing, or windsurfing.

  2. Although cycling isn’t for everyone, you can’t deny that hopping on the bike to explore the surrounding countryside can feel liberating. Feel free and alive as you journey across the Peak District and learn about the landscape through the pedals and tyres of your bike.

  3. Thousands of climbers flock to the crags of the Peak District every weekend, with nobody knowing exactly how many people have scaled the Peaks themselves.

  4. The Peak District is one of the UK’s favourite spots for hang gliding, and traditional gliding – if you’re feeling brave, the sky is the limit.

  5. The Peak District is one of the UK’s favourite spots for hang gliding, and traditional gliding – if you’re feeling brave, the sky is the limit.

    There’s nothing more rewarding than getting home after a full day of exciting, but tiring, activities, to sit down in front of the fire with a cold beer, a glass of wine, or a simple cup of tea. There’s no better place to do it in the Peak District, than in one of the many cottages that are available for families, or large groups of people to hire.

    Premier Cottages have a page dedicated to cottages that are available for rent in the Peak District area, and if you’re stuck for choice you can always ‘Request a Brochure’ from the website.
