If you're looking for a holiday destination in the UK that combines a beautiful, natural setting with a host of activities within easy reach, Sandybrook Country Park may be just what you're after. Set near the picturesque market town of Ashbourne in Derbyshire, the park lies just at the edge of the magnificent Peak District National Park.

These superb, comfortable lodges come complete with an excellent set of conveniences to ensure you make the most of your break, with sauna, spa and outdoor hot tub options available in some cases.

If you feel like a little excitement, or have children who need to be kept occupied, Alton Towers is accessible from here, while within the Peak District itself, a range of outdoor pursuits can be indulged in. The more extreme pursuits of rock climbing or even hang gliding are available, while at the other end of the spectrum, this enchanting pace is the perfect spot for a gentle stroll.

"We enjoyed a lovely relaxing weekend at Sandybrook. The accommodation was great with everything as described and the facilities well used. After a wonderful walk at Dovedale the sauna and spa bath were a great tonic for very sore muscles. The staff were very helpful and the views from the lodge were fantastic, we were even able to view a sunset on the veranda with a glass of wine at the end of October. After experiencing Darwin Forrest in March we were delighted to find Sandybrook the same standard. We will be back."
