About Derbyshire
Derbyshire is renowned for being a hugely diverse county with town and city nestled in breathtaking countryside with industry and leisure working hand in hand. The county's premier city is Derby, which although steeped in history, is one of Britain's youngest cities, being awarded its Charter by Her Majesty the Queen in 1977. Derby has many unique characteristics with a rich mixture of arts, tourism and cultural venues and a pedestrianised city centre, which makes shopping a joy. The Arboretum in Derby was Britain's first public park; it was opened in 1840 at a time when industrialisation and population increased the demand for public spaces. Elvaston Castle Country Park, opened over 100 years later in 1970, was also the first of it's kind. You will find a variety of Bed & Breakfast accommodation here. Traditional B&Bs, homestays, farmstays, luxury lodges, self catering cottages, cabins, and apartments, inns, guest houses, B & B hotels and charming boutique accommodation.
