Moving on from your first
week in Lincolnshire you
set up camp in Derbyshire.

Here, you will take in many
of the historical treasures
that this green and hilly
county has on offer, as well
as nearby Staffordshire and
Leicestershire.
DERBYSHIRE
, ,
Your first stop is
Shugborough Hall in
Staffordshire. A
Georgian mansion
whose final occupant
was famous glamour
photographer Patrick
Lichfield.
SHUGBOROUGH
HALL
, , , , , ,
The hallway towards
Lichfield’s apartment where
sadly photography was not
allowed.
Shugborough Hall
, , ,
One of the country’s finest
Restoration mansions with
a stunning surprise right at
the top.
SUDBURY
HALL
, , , , , ,
Feast your eyes
on this!
Sudbury Hall

You arrive at Kedleston
Hall like you’re royalty.
And the place itself is
rather grand too.
KEDLESTON
HALL

Kedleston Hall
And a rear façade that is
more impressive than
most front façades...
,
A brief but lovely stopover
at this hidden gem near
Ashby-de-la-Zouch (how is
that for a town name?).
BLUEBELL
ARBORETUM
, , , , ,
And then onto the madness
that is Calke Abbey. One
half is stuffed with stuffed
animals, the other half was
left to be when the owners
were unable to afford
maintenance of the entire
mansion.
CALKE
ABBEY

Only a few miles further on
- the lovely gardens at
Melbourne Hall.
MELBOURNE
HALL
, , , ,
A longer drive, but a visit to
the gardens at Kelmarsh
Hall proved to be so
satisfying for you.
KELMARSH
HALL
, , , , ,
You finish off a week of
stately abundance at
Hardwick Hall - both
imposing and impressive.
