East Midlands
The East Midlands boasts some of the most beautiful countryside in England to include the Peak District, which is home to the magnificent Chatsworth Estate; used as the location for films such as Pride and Prejudice. It’s the birthplace of the world-famous Bakewell Tart, which originates from the picture-perfect Peak District town of Bakewell - an Instagrammer’s dream. The Peak District is also a playground for outdoor adventure enthusiasts with plenty of pretty English pubs to quench your thirst in after a day of hiking, biking, climbing, and more.
The counties of Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Rutland, and parts of Lincolnshire make up the region. And major cities include Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, and Lincoln. Channel your inner Maid Marrion, Robin Hood, or King Richard III if you prefer. Visit the world's biggest collection of shoes in Northampton - the men's shoe-making capital of the world. Made to measure for the likes of James Bond & Prince Charles.
Visit Lincoln - famous for its spectacular 11th century Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle at the heart of the city's cultural Cathedral Quarter.
