Hi ks
This all I have found so far for Christmassy things in Derbyshire. Whereabouts in Derbyshire are you staying, and which week is it? The one wth Christmas in it or the one after? What type of things did you want to do?
I live in Sheffield so could tell you about things near there if you want "normal activities" and places to go. Places might include near here:
- Ponds Forge Leisure pool
- Ski Village
- City Centre (quite nice for a wander, bit of shopping and a rest in the Peace Gradens/Winter Gardens and Millenium Galleries)
- Magna (close in Rotherham)
- Earth Centre (nr Doncaster)
- Fire & Police museum (open Sundays & Bank holidays I think)
- Bolsover Castle
- Chatsworth House and/or Farm
Here goes anyway for special events -
