Camping. You really can’t beat it! This Summer Bank Holiday weekend we decided to get away from it all, with a couple of friends, and head up to The Peak District. We really were blessed with both the weather and the traffic being ideal for a stress-free break. We set up camp at a lovely site in the picturesque village of Birchover, not a million miles from The Red Lion public house! Most of Saturday was spent on the Limestone Way. It’d been ages since I’d done any ‘proper’ walking and I thoroughly enjoyed working up those blisters! On Saturday evening we drove over to Matlock Bath for the first night of the town’s illuminations. The river banks were adorned with illuminated animals and decorated boats sailed up and down the river. Definitely something to visit if you’re in the area!
