Motorhome Hire for Peak District
Hiring a motorhome to tour the Peak District and Derbyshire is a great idea for the holiday visitor to the UK. With depots in the North West close to Manchester and Liverpool Airports you are able to start touring Derbyshire and the Peak District within a couple of hours of arriving in the UK.
Situated in the heart of England, the Peak District National Park lies at the southern end of the Pennine Hills between the large cosmopolitan cities of Sheffield and Manchester. It was the first National park to be set up in Britain in 1951 and covers parts of six different counties.
The variety of landscape makes the Peak District so special. As a visitor, there are many kinds of countryside to explore in your motor home; from remote wind blown tops to tranquil dales and from great show caves to gentle river valleys.
A unique combination of rocks has created this contrasting landscape. To the south lies the White Peak, a gently rolling limestone plateau dissected by steep dales with crystal clear streams. Surrounding it to the west, north and east, is the Dark Peak, an area of Millstone Grit with heather moorland and desolate blanket bogs, one of the world's rarest habitats.
A motorhome holiday in the Peak District gives you the chance to get out in the countryside and do something different, whether it’s walking, riding or something a little more adventurous such as caving or climbing. There are also pursuits for those who like to relax such as sight seeing and moderate walks. Enjoy these at your own pace in one of our motorhomes.
The Peak District is a centre for a variety of outdoor and adventure sports including rock climbing, mountain biking, sailing, angling, fly fishing, para-gliding and hang-gliding. For more information on the Peak District visit the Peak District National Park official site:
